The John Report: AEW Dynamite 10/08/24 Review

This week’s AEW Dynamite featured Bryan Danielson & Wheeler Yuta taking on Claudio Castagnoli & Pac along with Mercedes Mone in singles action.

It’s a rare Tuesday night edition of AEW Dynamite starting at 9 p.m. ET rather than 8 p.m. ET on a Wednesday. That’s because TBS has the baseball playoffs on Wednesday night, so they moved Dynamite one night earlier. The AEW WrestleDream PPV is this Saturday, October 12th with Bryan Danielson defending the AEW World Title against Jon Moxley in the main event.

There were some travel issues that AEW had to deal with for their show due to the impending Hurricane Milton and some people still dealing with Hurricane Helene. Plus, Britt Baker was unable to compete due to illness, so they replaced her as well.

For this review, I’ll do detailed play by play for one or two matches and summary style for the rest of the show.

This was AEW Dynamite episode #262 from the Spokane Arena in Spokane, Washington. Follow me on Twitter/X @johnreport. Let’s get to it.

It’s Wednesday and you know what that means. Excalibur was on commentary with Tony Schiavone and Jeff Jarrett, who was filling in for Taz. Taz had knee replacement surgery, so best wishes to him. There were under 3,000 fans in the building, so a lot of lights were off, which is depressing to see.

Jon Moxley was featured in a backstage promo saying he had to end Bryan Danielson. Moxley said that this is the real world and nothing lasts forever. Moxley said that on Saturday, everybody will see the truth. Moxley said when you prove that American Dragon, it will be terrified and he claimed that Bryan will not be comfortable with that part of himself. Moxley said that Danielson will embrace his dark side and Moxley will be ready because he has to be and he has no choice. Moxley said what he stands for is too powerful. Moxley said that he would run into the mouth of war on Saturday night and beyond, so he warned Bryan to run while you still could. Moxley hopes that Bryan will one day understand that it has to be this way. Moxley made it clear that the stakes are too high.

Analysis: Jon Moxley has wrestled one match in AEW in about four months and he’s getting an AEW World Title shot at WrestleDream. I think he might leave with the title too.

Bryan Danielson was featured doing a promo saying that Claudio Castagnoli said that this would be Bryan’s last match on Dynamite, but Bryan denied that. Bryan said he supported Claudio and has been his friend for 20 years, but tonight there’s no support. Bryan said tonight he’ll “kick his f**king head in.”

Let’s Hear from Darby Allin

Darby Allin went into the ring for a promo. Allin called out Brody King since they are having a match at WrestleDream. King went into the ring with Allin. Darby said he was excited that King answered the challenge for WrestleDream. Allin recalled when they would stay in crackhead hotels talking about how one day they were hoping to end up on TV so that it would be worth it. Allin said he remembered when King was having his first kid. Allin recalled how when Brody King was in ROH and it folded, Allin was the one who called Tony Khan to hire King, who had two kids. Allin said that because of AEW, King and Allin had their dads retire. Allin said that King bought his family a house because of AEW. Allin claimed that he was the face of this company and because of AEW, he has made it. Allin said he’s relied on to do the morning talk shows and interviews because he does it.

King said that Allin has everything that Allin wants. King said he doesn’t take it for granted. King said that we know that Allin has a death wish, so what happens when Allin climbs Mount Everest and dies? King said that Allin’s dad would have to go get a job while AEW would lose him. Allin told King to put him out of his misery, but he didn’t have to wait until Saturday. Allin sat against the turnbuckle while telling King to do his thing. King told Allin to get back up, so Allin slapped him. King grabbed Allin in a sleeper and then Allin used a Rock to hit King in the mouth to knock him down. Security went to the ring while King was bleeding from the mouth.

Analysis: It was a fine way to make us care about this match in a five-minute segment. I don’t know about Allin being the “face of AEW” as he says, but he is popular. They tried to hit on the personal issue by talking about their past in the indies to try to make their match mean something more. Most of us didn’t know about King’s family or his journey, so it was cool to see Allin mention that. Anyway, a rock as a weapon is a rare thing, so at least it’s different for Allin to use.

The great Jake Roberts was backstage with Lance Archer while Renee Paquette was there for an interview. Don Callis walked in to say that he did a talent swap with Jake, so Archer is now a part of the Don Callis Family. Callis said he had big plans for Archer, Lance shook Jake’s hand and left. Jake teased getting some talent of his own.

Analysis: This could mean more TV time for Lance Archer since he was barely used for years. I’m happy for Archer for that.

Daniel Garcia was shown walking up to the building when Renee Paquette showed up wondering about his future. Garcia said he would go tell the fans himself.

Hologram vs. Komander

This is Hologram’s AEW Dynamite debut. Hologram is 13-0 in AEW with those matches taking place on Collision. They did a sequence where they exchanged holds and neither guy connected on anything. Hologram hit an impressive armdrag along with a great suicide dive that sent Komander into the barricade. That was really good. Hologram hit a snap suplex for two as the show went to break.

(Commercial)

They returned from the break as Komander did a double springboard into a hurricanrana that sent Hologram out of the ring. Komander hit an impressive leave over the top on Hologram. Back in the ring, Hologram hit a reverse Spanish Fly off the turnbuckle. Hologram went up top and jumped off for a 450 Splash, but Komander blocked it with knees. Komander walked the ropes, Hologram jumped off the ropes and Komander hit a Powerbomb. The fans chanted “holy shit” after that. Komander hit a Reverse Rana and then Hologram hit a Reverse Rana of his own. Hologram had Komander on his shoulders and spun him around in an airplane slam leading into a Powerbomb for the win.

Winner by pinfall: Hologram

Analysis: ***1/2 A very good match to continue Hologram’s undefeated streak. Some of the spots were really good like that Powerbomb off the top rope, but I’d also like to see better storyline and for both guys to sell some moves longer. It always seems like they are in a hurry to get to the next spot.

After the match, Jake “The Snake” Roberts showed up on the stage. That led to Rush, “The Beast” Mortos and Dralistico attacking Hologram and Komander. They cleared the ring. Jake put his fist up like Rush and the group did, so Jake is their manager.

Analysis: That’s a weird fit to have Jake Roberts with them, but hopefully it works out for all of them.

Mark Briscoe, the ROH World Champion, was interviewed by Lexy Nair backstage. Mark said that Chris Jericho messed up by mentioning Mark’s late brother Jay last week. Mark told Jericho at WrestleDream it’s not about the ROH World Title and Mark said he’s going to hurt him.

Analysis: It’s good to see a follow up to Jericho’s promo from last week while Mark is upping the intensity.

Let’s Hear from Daniel Garcia

Daniel Garcia made his way into the ring for a promo. Garcia said it was great feeling the energy of the fans. Garcia mentioned he’s been home for a while and it was good to be back. Garcia spoke about not wanting to be a guy who disappears with no explanation. Garcia looked into the camera saying he was there to let us know what he was going to do. Garcia knows he can do what he wants because he’s one of the best professional wrestlers in the world. Garcia said that it’s only right that he stays where the best wrestle – AEW. Tony: “Look at the fans!” The lights are off on most of them, Tony. Garcia spoke about how this is a new era for him. Garcia said that this is the Daniel Garcia that will start changing everything in AEW and it starts with gold around his waist. Garcia warned the champions in AEW.

Analysis: It was a promo where Daniel Garcia confirmed he’s going to re-sign with AEW. There were questions about his future because WWE had an interest in him as well, but Garcia is staying there and that’s cool to see. I like Garcia as a young guy in his mid-20s with a bright future.

Swerve Strickland was shown in a video package and he was training in a gym. They showed highlights of Swerve while there was a clip of MVP talking to Prince Nana as well.

A graphic was shown saying that Swerve Strickland would be at WrestleDream this Saturday. MVP and Shelton Benjamin were shown watching on a TV backstage.

Analysis: Swerve took a month off after the crazy AEW All Out loss to “Hangman” Adam Page, so now he’s back at WrestleDream in his home state of Washington. Perhaps MVP & Shelton will confront Swerve, which can lead to Bobby Lashley’s debut and he can attack Swerve to set up that rivalry.

The TBS Champion & NJPW Strong Women’s Champion Mercedes Mone was interviewed by Renee Paquette while Kamille was there with Mone. Mercedes said that everybody wants to jump on the money train referring to herself. Mone said that Emi Sakura has been wrestling longer than Mone has been alive. Mone reminded us that money changes everything.

Daniel Garcia was shown walking backstage where he was greeted by AEW wrestlers backstage. Katsuyori Shibata shared a message on his phone saying he was glad Garcia was staying and that Shibata would be the TNT Champion at WrestleMania. Garcia shook his hand.

Willow Nightingale vs. Saraya (w/Harley Cameron) vs. Nyla Rose vs. Jamie Hayter

The winner faces the AEW Women’s World Champion Mariah May at WrestleDream. May was on commentary. Anything goes in a four-way match.

There was going to be a face off between Willow and Hayter, but Saraya and Harley attacked them. Harley isn’t in the match, but she still got involved. The women were fighting on the floor, so Rose jumped off the top with a cross body block on four women on the floor.

(Commercial)

The match returned with all four women hitting moves in succession with Willow hitting a spinebuster on Rose. May said that she was hoping they all lose so she can have the night off. Hayter got some offense going, which included a double suplex on Willow and Rose at the same time. Saraya brought in a steel chair that was never going to connect. Hayter hit Saraya in the back with a steel chair a few times. Harley hit Hayter from behind so Hayter sent Harley into the barricade. Penelope Ford ran down to the ring with a steel chair and she hit Hayter in the back. Hayter walked after Ford to the backstage area. Rose was in control with a neckbreaker on Saraya. When Rose went up top, Cameron shoved Rose down so Rose hit the apron and bumped to the floor. Saraya gave Willow a cradle DDT for two. A table was set up in the ring. Willow picked up Saraya on her shoulders and slammed Saraya through the table. Willow covered Saraya and Harley at the same time to win. It went 11 minutes.

Winner by pinfall: Willow Nightingale

Analysis: *** It was just a random four-way match for a title shot. All four women had their moments while Hayter looked dumb for leaving just to go after Ford. I assume the plan was for Britt Baker to win to face May at WrestleDream, but they can get to that at Full Gear or something else.

Willow Nightingale went up to the top of the ramp where May was. May tried a punch, Willow caught her arm, and May headbutted Willow. May hit Willow in the back with the Women’s Title a few times.

Analysis: I think May beating Willow is a lock. They will probably get to May against Britt Baker down the road.

There was a backstage segment with “The Learning Tree” Chris Jericho, Big Bill & Bryan Keith talking to Rocky Romero. Jericho said that Rocky has been wrestling for decades and he was just given a shirt by The Conglomeration to be in their group. Jericho called Rocky a lackey. Jericho said they were trying to teach him a lesson. Bill said sometimes when you’re in the picture, you can’t see the big picture. Jericho said that’s the truth and thanks Rocky. Keith told Rocky to respect Jericho, Rocky asked “or what?” and Keith said “or else” to end it.

Analysis: It continues the story that Jericho has with Mark Briscoe because Rocky is in Briscoe’s group.

Jay White (w/Juice Robinson) vs. Cody Chhun

White was in control until Cody hit him with an atomic drop and a DDT. White connected with a running clothesline. White suplexed Cody into the turnbuckle and White hit a uranage slam. White hit the Bladerunner for the pinfall win after two minutes.

Winner by pinfall: Jay White

Analysis: * A squash match to give Jay a win after his return from injury.

Jay White did a promo saying that “Hangman” Adam Page was one of two men who knocked him off of his path on his way to the AEW World Championship. White said that he meddled in Hangman’s business so Hangman is coming for him. White said that’s what he wants. White said he wants Hangman against Switchblade and then White will correcting wrong number two because then he’ll move on to the gold. White said that the same voices that booed him for years are now willing into existence White as the AEW World Champion. White said it all starts with Hangman this Saturday at WrestleDream. White left.

Analysis: It should be a very good match at WrestleDream. Hangman is one of my favorites in AEW while White is talented too. I like White more as a heel, though.

Hook was backstage with a camera crew trying to find out who was the mystery attacker that attacked his father Taz. Kip Sabian bumped into Hook and Kip said he knew nothing about it. Christian Cage walked up to Hook, so Christian asked if he saw Kip Sabian around. Hook said no, which was a lie. Christian said that he lost Killswitch to a serious medical situation so he sympathizes with Hook on the loss of his father. Cage left. Hook said nothing.

Analysis: Taz legitimately had knee replacement surgery, so they did an injury angle and now Hook is trying to find out who mysteriously attacked his dad Taz. It’s not a riveting story, but at least it’s something.

(Commercial)

Mariah May was about to be interviewed by Renee Paquette, so Willow Nightingale showed up to hit a running Pounce on May. Willow said that she beat three former Women’s Champions today and she’ll beat May at WrestleDream.

Analysis: I’ll pick May at WrestleDream.

TBS & NJPW Strong Women’s Championship: Mercedes Mone (w/Kamille) vs. Emi Sakura

It was mentioned by Jarrett that Sakura has held 15 different titles and had 28 different title reigns. Mone was chopping Sakura to start, so Sakura came back with many chops of her own. Sakura took control with a backbreaker. After Sakura missed a charging attack, Mone hit a neckbreaker and double knees on the floor.

(Commercial)

The match continued with Mone in control with a running double knee attack. Sakura put Mone on the barricade and splashed Mone‘s back. Sakura hit a running cross body block on Mone and Kamille on the floor. Back in the ring, Sakura hit a backbreaker. Kamille tripped up Sakura after Mone pulled the ring apron up and the referee was dealing with that, so the referee never saw it. Mone applied the Mone Maker crossface submission and Sakura tapped out. It went 10 minutes.

Winner by submission: Mercedes Mone

Analysis: **3/4 Easy win for Mone. There wasn’t much to the match and it just felt average to me. I don’t mind Mone as a heel, but they have done a poor job of giving her meaningful storylines.

After the match, Mone held Sakura so that Kamille could attack, but Kris Statlander ran down to the ring. Kris fought with Kamille while Mone left the ring. Kris kicked Kamille out of the ring.

Analysis: That should lead to Statlander facing Kamille soon and probably against Mone soon. Statlander was a heel for months but suddenly is back in a face role or at least a tweener for now. I think AEW realized they had too many heel women and not enough faces, so that’s why Kris is a face again.

Private Party was about to be interviewed by Renee Paquette, so Stokely Hathaway showed up. Hathaway said that Private Party is missing one thing and that one thing is Hathaway. Marq Quen said he was looking at jumping on the bandwagon and Quen said they don’t need him. Hathaway said he didn’t think that was the right move. Isiah Kassidy said for the first time in five years they are doing it on their own. Kassidy said for the first time in five years, they have an AEW Tag Team Title match. Kassidy said they will beat The Young Bucks and be the next AEW Tag Team Champions. Kassidy said when they do that, it’s a party everybody will be invited to.

Analysis: I am happy to see Private Party getting a bit of a push and getting a Tag Team Title match at WrestleDream. A title change would be cool with me.

Let’s Hear from Will Ospreay

The AEW International Champion Will Ospreay made his entrance for an interview in the ring with Tony Schiavone. Will spoke about last week when Konosuke Takeshita attacked Will and Ricochet during their match last week. Tony said that he thinks that it likely had Don Callis’ fingerprints all over it. Will spoke about how that was supposed to show that Will was better than Ricochet, but they are equals and it’s because of Konosuke Takeshita. Will said he knew that Don Callis was calling the shots, so he wanted some answers, so he called out Don Callis.

Don Callis joined Will and Tony in the ring, but Will didn’t want a hug. Don claimed he had something important to say to Will right now. Don said that last week was difficult for him emotionally. Don mentioned the times when he helped Will in the past. Will wanted to know about last week and he asked if Don sent Takeshita out there to attack Will. Don said you didn’t need to know that. Will wanted to know the truth. Don said yes he sent him. Don said it was because Will wouldn’t listen to him. Don said he sent Takeshita to show Will who calls the shots. Don said that Will dropped the ball to win the Tag Team Titles because he was mentally weak. Will said he would have brought Don the World Championship at Forbidden Door, but Don sticks his nose in other people’s business. Will called himself the best wrestler in the world and told Don that he doesn’t know shit. Don said that he had the best wrestler in the world (referencing Kenny Omega) and maybe he’ll have to throw in the garbage again. Will told Callis that he was scum and Will said they were done. Callis slapped Will in the face.

Will tossed Callis across the ring. Konosuke Takeshita went into the ring to attack Will with punches. Kyle Fletcher, who is Will’s best friend, showed up to try to talk to Will, but that led to Takeshita hitting a German Suplex. Callis wanted Kyle to hit Will with a screwdriver. Kyle refused to do it. Takeshita grabbed Kyle, who bailed from. Will got back up with punches on Takeshita and Callis grabbed Will by the hair. Takeshita smashed Will with an elbow strike. Takeshita held up the International Title. Ricochet ran down to the ring to make the save and Ricochet hit a springboard clothesline on Takeshita. Ricochet wanted to do more, so Takeshita ran away to end it. Ricochet handed the International Title to Will.

Analysis: It should be a great match at WrestleDream when it’s Ospreay vs. Ricochet vs. Takeshita. I think because it’s a triple threat, Ospreay might lose the title. As for this segment, it was a way to further remind everybody that Callis is a dirty heel while Will is a good guy and a pure babyface who is easy to like. Fletcher is better off as a babyface long term, so they need to do an angle where he leaves the Callis group.

Top Flight was backstage talking about how they should be the ones to have a Tag Team Title match at WrestleDream. Action Andretti said they aren’t fired up. Leila Grey said it’s all Andretti’s fault because what he did last week was screw them. Action said they just don’t get it. Dante Martin told Darius they needed to fix it.

Analysis: I don’t watch Collision. It’s not on television in Canada and if it was, I doubt I would watch it. Anyway, these guys never seem to get a consistent push even though they are talented. I think they could have used an interviewer to sum up whatever their storyline was and then have them talk.

(Commercial)

Jack Perry, the TNT Champion, was in a stairwell saying that Katsuyori Shibata is one of the best. Perry said he wanted to face the Shibata who almost killed himself because he was willing to fight and sacrifice. Perry said it’s not about what you deserve because it’s about what you are willing to take. Perry said that the TNT Title says he is one of the best, so he dared Shibata to come take it from him.

Bryan Danielson & Wheeler Yuta vs. Claudio Castagnoli & PAC

Bryan Danielson had The Final Countdown song for his entrance. Danielson is the AEW World Champion. Yuta, Claudio & Pac are AEW Trios Tag Team Champions together, but Yuta isn’t seeing eye to eye with them. I’ll go play-by-play for this main event.

Bryan hit a running kick on Claudio, who was on the apron. Pac started with Bryan, who avoided Pac and Bryan hit a running suicide dive on Claudio on the floor. Yuta hit a springboard dropkick on Pac to knock him out of the ring. Bryan and Yuta each hit dives on the heels on the floor. Bryan applied a surfboard submission on Pac, which led to Yuta tagging in with a dropkick to the chest. Pac took control of Bryan by sending him face first into the turnbuckle. Pac was back in with a kick and Pac put his boot to the throat. Bryan tried to fight back against Claudio with an uppercut, but Claudio was the aggressor with running stomps that kept Bryan down against the turnbuckle. Yuta was back in with an elbow strike on Pac along with an enziguri kick. Yuta hit a German Suplex on Pac for two. Yuta went for the Cattle Mutilation, but Claudio pulled Yuta off Pac. Yuta slapped Claudio, and then Bryan dropkicked Claudio out of the ring. Bryan dove onto Claudio and Claudio sent Bryan into the barricade. Claudio gave Bryan a Neutralizer on the floor. Pac superkicked Yuta as the show went to a picture-in-picture break.

(Commercial)

The match continued with Claudio grounded Yuta in a headlock. Bryan was down on the floor grabbing his neck to sell his many injuries as a sympathetic face. Claudio was in control of Yuta with a German Suplex across the ring. Pac was legal for his team as he attacked Bryan on the floor. Pac went for a springboard kick and Yuta nailed him with a superkick. Claudio was acting like he didn’t want to have to fight his former ally Yuta, but he was forced to do it. Yuta was in his corner to make a tag, but Bryan was on the floor. Claudio put Yuta into the heel corner and Yuta fought back with a Tornado DDT. Bryan was back up, so he tagged himself in and he hit a missile dropkick off the top. Bryan hit a running kick on Claudio three times in a row. Bryan worked over Claudio with kicks and chops. Claudio blocked a top rope hurricanrana, which led to Bryan countering Claudio with a top rope hurricanrana reversal. Bryan worked over Claudio with kicks to the chest and a roundhouse kick to the head. Bryan held the wrists of Claudio followed by stomps to the head. Pac went in illegally to stop that and Bryan sent Pac smashing into the mat. Bryan stomped on Pac a few times. Claudio was back up with an uppercut to the back of the head. Bryan countered Claudio leading to a backslide pin. Bryan kicked Claudio in the head with a roundhouse kick. Jon Moxley showed up at ringside with Marina Shafir, so Bryan stared at Mox and Claudio came back with an uppercut for two. Pac tagged in followed by a 450 Splash off the top for two. Shafir distracted the referee, so Pac grabbed a ringside hammer and Yuta took it from Pac. Bryan put Pac in the LeBell Lock and Pac tapped out. It went about 14 minutes.

Winners by submission: Bryan Danielson & Wheeler Yuta

Analysis: ***1/4 It was a good TV main event tag team match, but it wasn’t anything out of the ordinary. I didn’t like the finish that much since Bryan was down selling for several minutes, then he popped up like it was nothing and put on one move leading to the win. They should have had Bryan work over Pac a bit more because it made Pac look weak by tapping out as quickly as he did. I’m not surprised that Danielson got the win for his team.

After the match, Bryan attacked Moxley with a running dropkick. They went fighting up the aisle and went to the backstage area. Pac kicked Yuta off the apron, but the director missed that. Shafir was hitting Yuta with multiple knees to the ribs.

Bryan and Moxley were fighting in the backstage area. Bryan sent Moxley into a garage door. In the ring, Pac kicked Yuta in the head a few times. Pac and Shafir held Yuta, so Claudio hit Yuta in the ribs with a hammer. Claudio hit Yuta in the ribs with the hammer again. Claudio hit Yuta in the ribs with the hammer one more time.

The fight between Bryan and Moxley spilled out to the arena again. Bryan sent Pac over the top to the floor. Bryan hit a Busaiko Knee on Claudio. Shafir had taken Moxley out of the ring before that. Bryan celebrated with the “YES” taunt while the fans were chanting “YES” for him. It’s Danielson vs. Moxley at WrestleDream and that’s the end of Dynamite for this week.

Analysis: There really hasn’t been much physicality between Moxley and Danielson in the build up to their match, so at least we saw some of that here. I think Moxley certainly could win at WrestleDream although I don’t know if that’s my official prediction. I’ll have a preview up later in the week.

Final Thoughts on AEW Dynamite

I think it was a good episode of Dynamite again although the last two weeks were bigger shows with better matches and more enjoyable overall. They called this Title Tuesday even though there was only one title match with Mercedes Mone picking up an easy win. Other matches did lead to title matches at WrestleDream and the main event featured all champions, so that’s why the “Title Tuesday” name was used. I think they could have put one or more title matches on the show since they have so many titles in the company.

The main event tag with Danielson & Yuta beating Claudio & Pac was just a good match, but nothing really special. The same goes for the women’s four way match. I just don’t think any of the matches stood out that much this week. Hologram had an entertaining match with Komander if you’re into the fast paced action although it would be nice if they slowed down to sell a bit more. Anyway,

There was obviously a big effort to try to build up the WrestleDream matches. I liked the Darby Allin-Brody King promo segment. The build to Danielson/Moxley led to some physicality, but I think they could have used some face to face promo time to really drive it home more. That Will Ospreay-Don Callis talking segment was effective as well. I’m looking forward to Ospreay-Takeshita-Ricochet at WrestleDream this Saturday. Overall, a fine episode of Dynamite even on the wrong day.

The next AEW PPV is WrestleDream on Saturday, October 12th from Tacoma, Washington with this lineup.

* AEW World Championship: Bryan Danielson (c) vs. Jon Moxley

* AEW International Championship: Will Ospreay (c) vs. Ricochet vs. Konosuke Takeshita
