Eddie Kingston did a promo from home showing off his injured right leg that was in a brace with a heavy cast. He spoke about how he thinks Bryan Danielson is being disrespectful.
“What’s up boys and girls. I’m not here to give you an update. I’ve still got a long road to go but I’m going to do it. There’s a thing I’ve been noticing on Dynamite lately, and that’s you, Bryan.”
“There’s a thing I’ve been noticing on Dynamite lately, and that’s you, Bryan. What Bryan Danielson is this, that I’m seeing? This ain’t the Bryan Danielson that used to beat me up all the time. This ain’t the Bryan Danielson that had one of the greatest matches I’ve ever seen, with him vs. KENTA in Ring of Honor.
“This Bryan, that I’m seeing, is disrespectful to our sport. This Bryan that I’m seeing, is going to get beat at the pay-per-view, at All In. He’s going to get beat. ‘Cause this Bryan doesn’t have the fire anymore. Why are you doing this Bryan? Why are you even doing the match if this is not who you are?”
“Are you gonna step up Bryan? Are you gonna write your last love song to pro wrestling at All In? Or are you just gonna go in there and lose? ‘Cause you ain’t got it no more. That’s something you need to figure out Bryan. ‘Cause if not, then what’s the point?”
Match #6: Mariah May defeated Londyn Dior in about 40 seconds.
After the match, a video aired from AEW Women’s World Champion “Timeless” Toni Storm, who said the following:
“I told the doctor I’m depressed. Every day is death. My heart is shattered. I don’t know how I can go on. The doctor said the treatment is simple. Go see the great clown who is in town tonight. But I said he should pay to see me. Mariah May, my final gift to you will be the grandest Toni Storm of them all. You will forever regret the day you met the woman you loved you!” (H/T AEW)
Following the video, Mariah May beat up Londyn Dior with Toni Storm’s shoe.
