AEW Dynamite Results April 5, 2023: ##
Ricky Starks vs. Juice Robinson ##
Juice Robinson had already entered the ring when Starks was making his entrance. However, just as Starks made his way to the ring, the electrifying music of Switchblade Jay White hit, eliciting a thunderous reaction from the crowd. Without hesitation, White stormed into the ring to lend Robinson a hand in giving Starks a sound beating. The two men hugged it out before hitting Starks with the devastating Blade Runner finisher. As they made their way back up the ramp, Robinson and White stood tall, victorious over their fallen foe. ##
WINNER: No Contest ##
In the backstage area, Tony Schiavone caught up with Chris Jericho for an interview. Jericho discussed Adam Cole's recent match and post-match celebration, which seemed to go on forever. Jericho expressed that he had to put a stop to the disrespect after Cole punked out Daniel Garcia. Suddenly, Keith Lee appeared on the scene, calling out Jericho for his history of disrespect towards other AEW wrestlers. Lee challenged Jericho to a match in Milwaukee next week, with the intention of teaching him a thing or two about respect. Jericho slowly backed away from the confrontation, leaving his answer to Lee's challenge uncertain. ##
As the House of Black made their entrance, the audience roared in anticipation, knowing that they would be defending their coveted AEW Trios Titles against the popular trio of Orange Cassidy and Best Friends. ##
AEW Trios Titles: House of Black (Malakai Black, Brody King & Buddy Matthews w/Julia Hart) Vs Best Friends (Chuck Taylor & Trent Beretta) & AEW International Champion Orange Cassidy ##
Amidst a loud crowd reaction, a mini-van pulled up backstage, with none other than Trent's mother Sue behind the wheel. Beretta and Black started the match with a series of reversals, exchanging back and forth until Beretta delivered a stunning standing meteora. Taylor and King made the tag, with Taylor narrowly avoiding a charging senton, allowing Cassidy and Matthews to join the fray. The pace picked up with lightning-fast switches, culminating in Matthews blocking the tilt-a-whirl DDT and slamming Cassidy face-first into the corner. ##
The match broke down into chaos as everyone spilled outside, with King decimating Taylor and Cassidy attempting a daring hands-in-pocket fall off the top, only to be caught by Black and Matthews and slammed onto the apron. Beretta suffered the same fate moments later. The House of Black took control during the commercial break, with Cassidy hitting a top-rope crossbody on Black. King was sent through the ropes onto his partners, while Cassidy was launched to the floor onto everyone. ##
Back inside the ring, a double choke slam powerbomb earned a two-count on Black, with Rush, Dralistico, and Preston Vance watching from ringside. Both teams exchanged a flurry of big-time moves until Black and Cassidy had a tense standoff after missing their respective signature strikes. Cassidy attempted his trademark little kicks, but Black quickly dropped him. Cassidy retaliated with a Stundog Millionaire, as Anna Jay kept a watchful eye on Julia Hart backstage. ##
Beretta hit a perfect piledriver on Matthews and Black, but when it came to King, he struggled to lift him at first. It took a Taylor pump knee and Cassidy's Orange Punch to finally set up Beretta for the piledriver on King, which almost earned them the victory. Taylor and Matthews countered each other's Sole Food and Murphy's Law until Matthews ultimately landed a Curb Stomp to secure the victory. ##
WINNERS: House of Black (Malakai Black, Brody King & Buddy Matthews w/Julia Hart) ##
AEW Women’s Title: Jamie Hayter (w/Dr. Britt Baker) Vs Riho
Hayter attempted to execute her finisher as soon as the bell rang, but Riho was able to evade it and countered with a series of close pin attempts. Hayter utilized her strength advantage with some shoulder tackles, however, Riho's agility allowed her to send Hayter flying out of the ring and hit a dive from the top rope. Hayter regained control inside the ring with a vicious gut buster. Both competitors exchanged blows on the apron before Hayter executed an Uranage on the edge of the ring. ##
After the commercial break, Riho fought back with a head scissors, Tiger Feint Kick, and a cross body from the top rope for a near fall. Although Hayter was able to dodge the Northern Lights suplex, she was not able to avoid the snap German and Dragon suplexes by Riho. Hayter landed a Ushigoroshi and a Swing Low, Sweet Lariat for a close two count. Later, Hayter delivered a superplex and attempted a brainbuster, but Riho countered with a devastating DDT in a beautifully executed sequence. The two competitors exchanged forearm strikes, with Hayter ultimately coming out on top. They climbed the ropes again, and Riho hit a springboard hurricanrana followed by charging double knees, but Hayter managed to put a foot on the rope to avoid the pin. ##
Riho was determined to execute another Dragon suplex, but Hayter countered by rolling through into Hayter-ade, which Riho initially avoided, but not the second time. Although Riho was able to kick out of the first Hayter-ade, Hayter hit a second one to successfully defend her title. ##
WINNER: Jamie Hayter ##
MJF Day ##
As the curtains opened to reveal a magnificent swing band, the crowd erupted into a thunderous ovation, eagerly anticipating the appearance of their idol, MJF. He emerged from behind the curtains, clad in a pristine white tuxedo, and the crowd went wild. MJF began crooning the classic tune "Pennies from Heaven" with such finesse and flair that it left the audience spellbound. ##
The band's exquisite performance and MJF's velvety-smooth vocals would have undoubtedly impressed even the likes of Lawrence Welk and Dean Martin. With each passing verse, MJF danced his way down to the ring, bringing the song to a sensational finish. Justin Roberts took the stage, introducing Joseph Saladino, the esteemed Supervisor of the town of Oyster Bay. As Saladino presented MJF with a much grander key to Long Island, the crowd booed him mercilessly, much to the delight of Taz, who couldn't help but chuckle at the scene. ##
MJF, basking in the adulation of the crowd, declared that he deserved this honor, unlike losers such as Darby Allin, Sammy Guevara, and especially Jungle Boy. He belittled Jungle Boy, claiming that the most he could ever hope for was a girlfriend with a wandering eye and a minuscule package. Undeterred, MJF continued his speech, regaling the Long Island kids with his inspiring tale of perseverance. ##
He spoke of his childhood dreams of becoming a wrestler and recounted how his teacher, Mrs. Benedict, used to laugh at him for not knowing the answers in class. But MJF had the last laugh, as he rose to become one of the greatest wrestlers of all time. He even called Mrs. Benedict a "stupid b*tch," which garnered yet another chant from the crowd. ##
In an uplifting gesture, MJF gave a motivational speech to the young Long Island fans, but he made it clear that he only spoke to the "rich and famous" and not the "poors." With his trademark tagline, MJF bid farewell to his adoring fans and strutted up the ramp for an encore performance. ##
Suddenly, the loud clashing of cymbals shattered the air, causing MJF to spin around in alarm. To his surprise, he found himself face to face with Jungle Boy, who had snuck up behind him. The two rivals launched into a vicious brawl, with the crowd cheering for MJF whenever he gained the upper hand and booing when Jungle Boy did. ##
As the agents and security tried to separate the two, Sammy Guevara made his entrance, holding the AEW Title high above his head. He stood between the two combatants, staring them down, before making his way to the ring for his match. ##
Singles Match: Sammy Guevara Vs Komander ##
In the opening moments of the match, Guevara pulled off an impressive springboard moonsault to the floor, catching Kommander off guard. His acrobatic skills were so impressive that he went out of frame. However, Kommander managed to recover and hit a superkick on Guevara in mid-air as he flew back inside the ring. ##
Kommander continued to fight back and executed a rope walk into a Shooting Star Press for a near fall. Guevara rolled outside the ring to catch his breath, and Kommander took advantage of the situation by attempting a dive outside the ring. But Guevara was prepared for it and connected with a jump knee that took us into the picture-in-picture view. ##
Guevara kept Kommander grounded, and Jungle Boy watched on backstage with security standing behind him. However, Kommander fought back with a springboard Poison rana, followed by a spectacular rope walk and a dive on the outside. Back inside the ring, Kommander attempted a Shooting Star Press for the second time, but Guevara moved out of the way. Kommander then attempted a springboard Phoenix Splash, but could only manage a two-count. ##
Kommander was determined to execute his signature move, the rope walk Shooting Star Press, and attempted it for the third time. Unfortunately, Guevara saw it coming and got his knees up, causing Kommander to crash land. Guevara seized the opportunity and trapped Kommander in the ropes, allowing him to hit a cutter halfway through the rope walk. Finally, Guevara connected with his signature move, the GTH, and secured the victory. Despite a valiant effort by Kommander, Guevara emerged victorious with his high-flying moves and quick reflexes. ##
WINNER: Sammy Guevara ##
FTW Title Match: HOOK Vs Ethan Page (w/Matt Hardy & Isiah Kassidy) ##
During the bout, Page attempted a sneaky attack, but was swiftly thwarted with a masterful T-Bone suplex and rolled out of the ring. Determined to gain an advantage, Page continued his assault on HOOK outside the ring, slamming him against the unforgiving floor and posting him. Returning to the ring with an air of confidence, Page struck a pose reminiscent of Matt Hardy. However, his attempt to execute a Twist of Fate was expertly countered by HOOK, who seamlessly transitioned into his own devastating move. ##
As Page struggled to regain his footing, Isiah Kassidy emerged, using distracting tactics to allow Hardy to enter the fray and engage in a tug-of-war with the FTW title against Page. Hardy eventually ripped the title away, using it to clock Page with a vicious blow that sent him reeling back into the clutches of HOOK's signature submission hold, REDRUM. With the crowd on their feet, Hardy and Kassidy gave a triumphant fist bump to HOOK on the ramp before disappearing backstage. ##
WINNER: HOOK ##
The Blackpool Combat Club (Jon Moxley, Claudio Castagnoli & Wheeler Yuta w/Bryan Danielson) Vs. 3 Guys Already in the Ring ##
The energy in the arena was palpable as the Blackpool Combat Club (BCC) made their way to the ring, ready to take on their opponents. Excalibur was about to introduce their opponents when the BCC sprang into action, launching a surprise attack that left their opponents dazed and confused. ##
Moxley and Castagnoli executed a brutal spike piledriver on one of their opponents on the floor, while Yuta locked in a single crab. The BCC continued their assault, with Moxley applying a sleeper hold and Castagnoli launching another opponent to the floor. Yuta then landed a series of anvil elbows before locking in a crossface to secure an easy victory. ##
WINNERS: The Blackpool Combat Club (Jon Moxley, Claudio Castagnoli & Wheeler Yuta w/Bryan Danielson) ##
After the match, Danielson took the microphone and spoke of his love for his family and the BCC, who he deemed to be true professionals. He then turned his attention to their opponents, questioning their professionalism and suggesting they were merely amateurs hired by the EVPs. Danielson asserted that the BCC were the only professionals present, just as Hangman Adam Page power walked to the ring. ##
Despite showing no fear, Page was immediately set upon by Moxley, Castagnoli, and Yuta, while Danielson berated him as an amateur. Danielson then produced a screwdriver from his jacket and proclaimed that the house of AEW needed to be fixed up from all the amateurs present. To prove his point, he slowly drove the screwdriver into Page's eye, causing him to scream in agony while Danielson continued to proclaim the superiority of the BCC and himself as professionals. ##
It was a shocking and disturbing scene that left the audience reeling, as the BCC asserted their dominance over the rest of AEW. It remains to be seen how the other wrestlers will respond to this display of brutality and arrogance. ##
AEW Tag Team Titles: FTR (Cash Wheeler & Dax Harwood) Vs The Gunns (Austin & Colten) ##
The Gunns made their entrance to new music and a fancier overall presentation, while FTR's appearance marked their first match since Wrestle Kingdom. To start the bout, Wheeler and Austin exchanged slaps, with Wheeler later executing a charging spear in the ropes and delivering chops as FTR made rapid tags. Colten tried to regroup outside, but Wheeler caught up with Austin, allowing The Gunns to isolate and control Wheeler during the break. ##
Upon returning to the action, Harwood made a fiery hot tag, unleashing a flurry of punches. A beautifully executed short arm lariat sent Colten outside, and while Austin attempted a move of his own, Harwood almost pinned him with a close small package. FTR delivered a double DDT to Colten in the ropes, with a blind tag made by FTR just as they planted Austin with a spike piledriver for a two count. ##
Both teams attempted their respective finishing moves, the Shatter Machine and 3:10 to Yuma, but it was FTR who hit the Shatter Machine. However, Colten pulled the referee out of the ring and demanded that he disqualify FTR, but the referee refused, knowing that a DQ would end FTR's careers. Colten and Harwood collided on the apron, and Austin hit the Fame-Asser for a two count. ##
Attempting a Pedigree, Austin was countered by Harwood, who spun out into multiple pin attempts. Austin then resorted to a low blow, right in front of the referee, but Wheeler pleaded with the ref not to disqualify The Gunns. As 3:10 to Yuma hit Wheeler, Austin set up Harwood in the corner. Although the ref saw one title thrown in the ring, he missed the second, and Harwood was struck with it but managed to kick out at two. Furious, Harwood spat in both of The Gunns' faces, and while Wheeler came flying off the top with a sunset flip, Harwood simultaneously executed a roll-up, resulting in both Gunns being pinned, and FTR being crowned the new champions as streamers fell from above. The show culminated with Mark Briscoe rushing to the ring to celebrate with FTR, marking a significant win for the team. ##
