>>15589964Kazuchika Okada (c) vs. Claudio Castagnoli for the AEW Continental championship went to a 20 minute time limit draw that’s getting a ton of praise from live-tweeters at the show. The Young Bucks & Jack Perry came out to ask if the crowd wanted five more minutes, but Matthew Jackson shut them down and said it wouldn’t happen. The Elite menaced Claudio, but Darby Allin & FTR showed up to start their six-man. Okada and Castagnoli fought to the back.
FTR & Darby Allin def. The Young Bucks & Jack Perry. The Elite tried to walk out halfway through, but Dax Harwood dove on them to put a stop to that. Matthew Jackson took the pin after taking top rope moves from all three opponents. The Acclaimed were out for some trash talk about Sunday’s threeway for the Bucks’ AEW Tag titles, and the segment ended with a staredown between Harwood & Cash Wheeler and Max Caster & Anthony Bowens.
Paquette catches up with a still bloody Ospreay backstage. Before the interview can get started, Bryan Danielson comes by to scream “DO IT” at Bruv... meaning he wants him to break his personal Tiger Driver ban when facing MJF this weekend at Wembley.
Nigel McGuinness brought out AEW World champion Swerve Strickland, putting him over as a franschise player. Strickland appreciates Danielson as a legend and fellow Washingtonian. but he feels disrespected that Bryan is talking about being ready for retirement before facing the most dangerous man in AEW. When he mentions Danielson’s family, the American Dragon showed up and took Swerve out with a Busaiku Knee. He then got on the mic, calling himself the best f***ing wrestler in the world. He said the only question left is whether he can beat Strickland for the title at All In. The crowd chanted “YES!” to end Dynamite.
