AEW Dynamite Results August 9, 2023: Highlights

The Jericho Appreciation Society (JAS) is already in the ring for their mandatory meeting. Chris Jericho makes his entrance. Every member of the JAS, including a pregnant Tay Conti, is in the ring. However, their gathering is immediately interrupted by Daniel Garcia. He's visibly displeased with what transpired last week. Garcia asserts that if Jericho didn't choose them, then they won't choose Jericho either, and he walks away.



Jake Hager grabs the microphone and reminds Jericho that he has other options. Hager expresses his discontent with Jericho and exits the scene.





A somber Ocho takes the mic, commending Ana JAS and Tay Conti. Tay, however, is disappointed with the current state of the JAS and decides to quit. Ana appears equally disheartened and follows suit, leaving the ring together.





Angelo and Matt step forward and take the microphone. Angelo announces his resignation from the JAS and departs. Menard, while speaking positively about Jericho, is clearly devastated. He confesses that it never sat well with him that his longtime associates now hold a grudge against Jericho, and he walks away in sorrow.





Sammy Guevara intervenes, slapping the microphone out of Jericho's hand. He expresses his reluctance to abandon Jericho entirely, hinting that perhaps he was too quick to judge the situation with the Ocho. Sammy advises Jericho to sort out the ongoing issues and then leaves.





In the backstage area, Don Callis approaches Jericho. Callis informs Le Champion that he will receive Callis' answer next week.



The Young Bucks vs. Matt & Jeff Hardy



In the early moments, the Hardys took command, employing effective double-team tactics that sent Nick tumbling to the outside. They followed up with a dual wheelbarrow suplex on Matt, securing a near fall. A sit-out powerbomb in the corner set the stage for a tandem cover on Matt, surprisingly counted by Rick Knox, but the count was broken by Nick. Attempting a Poetry in Motion, the Hardys were thwarted as Matt evaded, and Nick caught Jeff with a corner enzuigiri. After tagging in, Nick unleashed a flurry of offense, including a slingshot face buster and a moonsault to the outside, culminating in Matt Hardy being struck by the Risky Business. Matt feigned a dive, with Nick executing a twisting plancha to take out both Hardys just before the commercial break.





Action persisted during the break, as Nick managed to dodge a Twist of Fate. However, Matt Hardy adjusted and drove Nick into the mat with a DDT. Just as Jeff was nearing a tag, Matt Jackson intervened by yanking his leg, briefly isolating the Bucks' opponent before a double clothesline prompted a reset. The two Matts engaged in a slugfest, culminating in Jackson colliding head-on with a Side Effect. Simultaneous tags followed, with Jeff unleashing his offense, including a low leg drop and a snappy dropkick. Jeff pushed back both Bucks, executing a Whisper in the Wind that took them out, only for Nick and Matt to counter a double Twist of Fate into superkicks, subsequently landing a 3-D on Jeff. Evading the Meltzer Driver, the Hardys turned the tide with dual Twist of Fates. Jeff then soared with a Swanton on Nick, narrowly receiving a two-count that Matt broke.





After this whirlwind of action, Matt Hardy legally tagged in, leading to multiple Twist of Fates on Nick. However, Matt skillfully superkicked Jeff's leg as he attempted another Whisper in the Wind. In a swift sequence, Matt Jackson engaged in a backslide on Matt Hardy, swiftly transitioning into the BTE Trigger, sealing the victory for the Young Bucks.



WINNER: The Young Bucks (Matt & Nick Jackson w/Brandon Cutler)



Following the match, The Bucks stood ready to respond to FTR's challenge from Collision. The AEW Tag Team Champions made their entrance, leading to a tense stare-down between the two teams. Nick then declared "All In," confirming their acceptance of the challenge, while FTR proudly displayed their titles.





Footage of Hikaru Shida's recent Women's Title victory played, with Excalibur informing us that the title would be defended at All In in a Four-Way match. The participants were revealed: Toni Storm, who was exercising her rematch clause; the victor of Saraya vs. Skye Blue on Rampage; the winner of The Bunny vs. Britt Baker on Dynamite the following week; and the triumphant contender from tonight's Women's Title match between Shida and Anna Jay.





In a segment from last week, Adam Cole and MJF were seen celebrating their main event announcement for All In, enjoying a visit to a trampoline park. Cole expressed his excitement, but MJF appeared less enthused until they discovered the prospect of dodgeball. MJF embraced the dodgeball game with gusto, enthusiastically hurling balls at children and peppering them with his trademark insults. Amidst the hilarity, a little girl confidently approached, branded them as losers, and promptly flipped them off, leaving a trail of knocked-down kids in her wake. Cole granted MJF one more throw, leading to a gleeful MJF launching the ball just before the commercial break. This segment was an absolute delight, evoking comparisons to Adam Sandler's antics in Billy Madison.





Backstage, the crew from Blackpool Combat Club wanted to make sure that the Best Friends got the message loud and clear following the intense Parking Lot Brawl on Rampage. Moxley even mentioned how they hoped that Trent's mom, Sue, received the flowers they sent her.





For tonight, they're ready to capitalize on their victory and take advantage of any opportunities that come their way. They also didn't hold back from talking some smack about PAC, noting that it's a shame he won't be present at All In. The Blackpool Combat Club made it clear that they don't fear death; in fact, they believe that death should be the one afraid of them.



Jack Perry Vs Rob Van Dam in a FTW Rules Match For FTW Title



In the FTW Rules match, where pretty much anything goes and falls count anywhere, Perry, sporting some fresh new gear, made his move during RVD's introduction. However, RVD swiftly turned the tables, countering with a leg trap roll-up that almost sealed the deal with a quick two-count. Perry decided to retreat and extend a hand for a handshake, but RVD wasn't having any of it. RVD was gearing up for his signature Rolling Thunder move when Perry wisely exited the ring, avoiding the impending attack.





Outside the ring, RVD laid Perry across the barricade and executed a punishing spinning legdrop off the apron, leaving Perry worse for wear as the show headed into a commercial break.





As the action resumed, Perry managed to seize control, but his fortunes took a turn when he missed a chance to execute his own Rolling Thunder move. An opportunistic moment unfolded as a chair got stuck in the corner, and a table was set up on the outside floor. RVD capitalized by delivering an impressive monkey flip and a running dropkick while wielding a chair in the corner.





With Perry positioned on a chair, RVD unleashed his Rolling Thunder move, but Perry managed to elude RVD's split-legged moonsault. Perry cleverly dodged the Van Daminator move and tossed a chair directly at referee Bryce, temporarily sending him out of commission. Perry used this distraction to his advantage, cutting off RVD in the corner.





However, Perry's momentum took an abrupt halt when RVD propelled him off the top rope and through a waiting table on the outside. Rolling Perry back into the ring, RVD executed his signature Five Star Frog Splash, seemingly securing a pin. Yet, to RVD's dismay, the referee was incapacitated and unable to make the count.





Referee Aubrey then hurried into the ring to officiate the match. RVD managed a near fall, but a dispute over the count ensued. This opening allowed Perry to seize the moment, delivering a low blow to RVD and smashing him into a chair placed in the corner. This maneuver set the stage for Perry to roll up RVD in a schoolboy pin, ultimately securing the victory.



WINNER: Jack Perry
MJF & Adam Cole make a Zero Hour challenge



MJF greeted the Midwest fans with open arms, asserting that prior footage depicting him as dismissive of their region had been craftily edited. He insisted that, in truth, he holds the Midwest in high regard and it's actually his favorite spot in the whole of the U.S.





Cole chimed in, reminiscing about making history at All In, and confidently declared that he'll clinch victory over MJF for the AEW title. MJF swiftly fired back, playfully suggesting a promo face-off. He poked fun at Cole's slim frame and fair complexion, humorously implying that Hogan might not have taken him seriously back in the 80s.





But before MJF could continue his verbal barrage, Cole intervened, expressing his disinterest in a promo contest. MJF quickly realized he had misread the situation and refrained.





Cole shifted the conversation, reflecting on the shared hope that both he and MJF would emerge as AEW Tag Team titleholders. However, Cole disclosed his aspiration for a different pair of tag titles – the ROH Tag Titles. He highlighted his deep-rooted connection with Ring of Honor and the titles he'd secured, except for the elusive tag team championship. Cole suggested a challenge for the ROH Tag Titles at Zero Hour, ahead of All In, aiming to add more gold to their collections.





MJF playfully chided Cole, labeling him a "sick pervert" for entertaining the notion of wrestling twice in one evening. With a dash of camaraderie, MJF and the fans rallied together, officially putting forth a challenge to Aussie Open for the ROH Tag Titles at All In Zero Hour.





The situation took a twist as Roderick Strong stormed onto the scene, vociferously objecting to Cole's plan to partner with MJF for the ROH Tag Titles. Strong expressed his disappointment, feeling slighted that Cole didn't consider him, a bona fide ROH legend, as his tag partner.





In response, MJF ridiculed Strong, suggesting he retreat to his abode, drown his sorrows while listening to Taylor Swift, and shake off his grievances like an uninspired soul. A further complication arose when Matt Taven and Mike Bennett joined the fray, embracing Strong. MJF remarked on Cole's choice of company, leading to a minor confrontation.





To settle the tension, MJF and Cole reconciled, sharing a hug. MJF then urged Cole to check on Strong, and the incident concluded with a nod of understanding.



Jon Moxley & Claudio Castagnoli Vs The Lucha Bros (Penta el Zero Miedo & Rey Fenix w/Alex Abrahantes)



Fenix and Penta sneaked up from behind and took down Moxley and Castagnoli with double dives right when the bell rang. Penta nailed a top rope double stomp on Castagnoli, and Fenix's dive on Moxley was no surprise, causing Moxley to bleed. Penta tried his "Made in Penta" move, but Castagnoli kicked out at two. Castagnoli dodged a double superkick, making the Lucha Bros collide. Moxley tagged in and hit a double DDT, taking down both opponents. Penta countered a Death Rider with a Sling Blade, and Castagnoli used referee Aubrey as cover, letting Yuta hit Fenix with the ROH Title. A press slam into a cutter isolated Fenix while the commercial break rolled.





Coming back, Fenix ate a spike piledriver that Taz said messed up his own neck once. In a Doomsday Device-like position, Moxley missed a clothesline, and Fenix countered with a roll-up double stomp on Castagnoli. Penta got fiery after the hot tag, dishing out a cazadora face buster on Moxley and a backstabber on Castagnoli. Fenix got tagged in, and chaos ensued before Moxley planted Penta with a cutter, and Fenix swiftly countered with a superkick before everyone hit the mat. Fenix and Castagnoli exchanged strikes, leading to Fenix's comeback spin kick, and Penta leapt off the top only to be nailed by an uppercut in mid-air.





Penta and Moxley exchanged chops, going at it before Penta nailed a double team stalling piledriver. Yuta grabbed Fenix's leg right in front of the ref, and Abrahantes started jawing with Yuta. However, Yuta got hit with a moonsault. Penta went for the Fear Factor, but Castagnoli tore off Penta's mask. This distraction allowed Moxley to get a roll-up, grabbing the tights for the win.



WINNER: Jon Moxley & Claudio Castagnoli



After the match, The BCC continued their attack, with Castagnoli putting on Penta's mask during the assault. Moxley yelled that zero respect was what they were showing.





-Kenny Omega was seen backstage walking, and Alex Marvez caught up with him. Marvez mentioned The Young Bucks challenging FTR at All In. Omega mentioned that he would be having a sit-down chat with Jim Ross next week to discuss his future, Don Callis, Konosuke Takeshita, and his plans for All In. Marvez tried to get a juicy detail, but he came up empty-handed.






The whole Mogul Embassy crew made their entrance to the ring, led by Prince Nana, who talked some trash about the crowd. Swerve Strickland grabbed the mic and shared how he, Fox, and Nana had a point to prove after attending the Buddy Wayne Academy. He made it clear whose territory they were in. Fox wasted no time and called out Darby Allin, who appeared and demanded Fox spill the entire story about how Allin tried to support him in times of need. Fox made it to AEW on his own, but he was unhappy that Allin didn't put in a good word for him, instead favoring Nick Wayne. Although Fox had some new buddies, Allin had his own crew.





The arena went dark, and when the lights came back on, Sting was standing in the ring, swinging a bat and taking down The Gates of Agony and Brian Cage. AR Fox wisely backed away, leaving Sting facing off against Strickland. Sting pointed up at the All In sign, while Strickland was pulled out of harm's way by Nana. Sting and Allin remained standing tall in the ring. A challenge was thrown down for a Coffin Match in London, and we found out that Tony Khan had made it official: Sting and Allin would face Strickland and Fox.



AEW Women’s Title Match: Hikaru Shida Vs Anna Jay (w/Matt Menard & Angelo Parker)



During the match, Excalibur brought up how Jay's debut in AEW back in 2020 was against Shida. A jumping knee from Jay caught Shida off guard early on, followed by ten corner punches. Jay managed to wriggle free and was pushed over the top rope to the outside, where Menard & Parker didn't waste time to taunt her. Jay dominated throughout the entire commercial break, but Shida came back with a running elbow as soon as they returned to the action.





Jay rolled onto the apron, and Shida tried to suplex her back in, but Jay surprised her with a spin kick instead. Both women battled on the apron, and Shida landed a pump kick before grabbing a chair from beneath the ring. Shida set the chair up, seemingly for a launching point, but Parker intervened and distracted Shida, allowing Jay to slam her into the ring steps. Back inside the ring, Jay scored a two-count before applying a Queen Slayer submission. Shida managed to climb to the second rope with Jay still on her back and fell backward to break free from the hold. Shida executed a Falcon Arrow, but Jay kicked out. Shida followed up with the Kitana knee strike, and the referee counted to three for the win, despite Parker awkwardly trying to slide in and break up the pin.



WINNER: Hikaru Shida
