Witness the fall out of ALL IN: London as AEW Dynamite stops by Allen, Texas for this week’s Dynamite. We hear from newly crowned World Champions Will Ospreay and Mercedes Mone, additionally the new Trios Champions Swerve and New Level defend their titles against the Rascalz.
This and so much more comes your way.
We start the show as Will Ospreay is introduced as the new AEW World Champion to a huge reception. Chants of “You deserve it” were a plenty. He addresses Kenny Omega, gave a shout out to his United Empire team mates, before then announcing he’s looking
to start his own in America.
He’s interrupted by Ricochet with Gates of Agony, who gives him credit but still demand a title shot. Gabe Kidd also seemed displeased at Ospreay, it looked like it would be a 5 on 1 ambush before the United Empire came to the champions aid. Ospreay called for it to be the main event later on.

AEW World Trios Championship: Swerve Strickland and New Level (c) vs The Rascalz
Strickland and Reed started things off as chants of “Swerve’s house” echoed through the arena. Soon enough, he got both Creed and Kofi involved. It’s wild how they feel right at home from the get go.
The Rascalz were barely getting any offence is as it was total domination by the champions for a good chunk of the match, it was only until the latter stages of the match where they imposed their presence on the match. In the end, a series of their finishers on Dezmond Xavier got the Champs their first successful defence.
As far as first defences go, it doesn’t get alot of better than that. Great showcase by both teams. Aa they were going up the ramp, they were confronted by none other than the Young Bucks. A possible tease for the future.
Winners (And Still) – Swerve Strickland and New Level
Coming back from commercial, The Bucks are in the ring addressing what happened Sunday. Matt says they’re not gonna complain, but asked Cope and Cage if they were happy with how they won. FTR interrupted, telling the Bucks to step aside as they have now lost two opportunities in the year. The Champs soon made their presence known and Cope made a proposition that makes everyone happy. At All Out, it will be a three way match for the Tag titles with Cope and Cage taking on both teams. Cope also mentioned that the match may involve “Tables, Ladders and Chairs”. I love the sound of that.
Backstage we are with United Empire, Callum Newman introduces their fifth member for later on. It is the Casino Gauntlet winner, Andrade El Idolo.
TNT Championship: Darby Allin (c) vs Mark Davis
Darby was coming down the ramp when he got blindsided by Mark Davis. After that it was all Davis as he was throwing him around like a rag doll. With the action reaching the crowd area, it is worth pointing out the match officially hasn’t started. Darby finally started hitting back, even casually just jumping off the balcony on to Davis.
You know, just casual Darby stuff. Eventually both reached the ring and the match was able to start. Davis continued piling on the attack but Darby found a way, two coffin drops in a row put Davis down for the three count. The quintessential Darby match, just lovely stuff who can complain.
Post match, Roppingi Vice started attacking Darby before Steven Borden made the save. Josh Alexander made his return from Injury as the DCF stood tall.
Winner (And Still Champion) – Darby Allin
We see footage of the MJF after Casino Gauntlet, still in delusion about being champion and angry with Ospreay for “costing” him the title back at Beach Break. He sees Payback is coming for Ospreay and says Ospreay won’t see it coming.
Alex Windsor vs Megan Bayne
Looks very weird to see Bayne without the belt, but here we are. Bayne, with a bunch of shoulder barges and chops in the corner. Windsor tried to give some of them back, but Bayne overpowered the Brit. Windsor got some separation until a flying lariat from Bayne took her down.
Towards the end, Kross and Hayter on the outside started brawling, allowing Bayne to hit her with the belt and get the victory. A slug fest between the two woman, i wouldn’t mind another match or two between the pair as things are far from over between the teams.
Winner – Megan Bayne
Lexy Nair is backstage with Jericho, quickly joined by Nick Wayne. Words quickly turned physical, the exchange ending with Nick Wayne delivering a low blow to Jericho. We are joined in the ring for Mercedes Mone’s Champions celebration. She talks about how this is where she wanted to be and how this is the only place where this women’s evolution could be globalised. Also mentions about being the only woman to win world titles in four different promotions. She had some harsh words for Willow.
Soon enough like expected, Thekla interrupted from the crowd. And yes she did call Mone a “dumb bitch”. We are backstage with the new TBS Champion Persephone and Dr Britt Baker DMD. Both women are full of praise for each other and announces that she will defend her championship on Collision.
AEW Continental Championship Eliminator: Jon Moxley (c) vs AR Fox
The match began by the two men locking up with Mox taking control, only for Fox to break free and get to his feet. Fox was hitting his stride but the champ ends up taking control as he sends Fox to the outside. Fox had a comeback but it didn’t last long as Mox would end up taking the victory with a paradigm shift. A short and sweet TV match; not too much, not too little. Just fine.
Winner – Jon Moxley
We are with the Don Callis Family as things are not going well. Fletcher and Knight both seem to be at odds and to fix that Callis has arranged both of them to team on Collision. Okada pokes his head with a smile and reminds Fletcher of “Family”
United Empire vs The Demand and The Dogs (Kidd, Connors)
Ricochet and Ospreay start the match, but both tag to Liona and Henare respectively. There was some nice elbow strikes being thrown by both men. The action eventually spills to the outside where the Empire take a selfie with a female fan in the crowd. This led to them being blindsided by their opponents. As with being a multi man tag, everyone was getting their moves in, the victory world go the Empire as Ospreay catches Connors with a Hidden Blade after the latter just leveled Newman with a spear.
Post match, Dogs beat down Andrade, Ospreay tries to help but get some beating of his own. The music of the Death Riders hit and they arrive, Moxley stared down Kidd before Andrade recovered and start brawling with Kidd through the crowd. Moxley helps Ospreay up, then a graphic appears on the jumbo tron announcing Moxley will be challenging Ospreay for the AEW World Championship at All Out.
Winners – United Empire
