We’re just a short few weeks from AEW Dynasty and ahead of the event, things are heating up this week on Dynamite.
Early in tonight’s show, we see TBS Champion Julia Hart come face-to-face with TNT Champion Adam Copeland fresh off his successful title defense against Penta El Zero Miedo. All in a sneak ploy, for Brody King to take Copeland out. This is short-lived as Willow Nightingale, No.1 Contender for the TBS Championship, makes the save.
Backstage, we see Nightingale and Copeland make a mixed-tag challenge towards the House of Black members, next week on Dynamite.
We soon see Hart in a dramatic vignette responding to Nightingale, vowing that she’ll never touch “her crown” and that “the House always wins.” Nightingale is set to face Hart for the TBS Championship at Dynasty.
Per the request of AEW Women’s World Champion “Timeless” Toni Storm held a “Charleston Championship Champagne Toast” in honor of No. 1 contender for her title, Thunder Rosa. This toast barely gets started, as she immediately splashes Rosa with her glass of bubbly and continues to batter her, all the while ruining her face paint. Deonna Purazzo comes out to assist Rosa, despite Rosa not too pleased with the help due to their rocky history.
Mariah May shortly makes her entrance as she is scheduled to take on Anna Jay, and gets a burst of energy via Storm. May is hot off her weekend after a short reunion with her former Club Venus members at Stardom and getting a win off of Momo Kohgo at ROH’s Supercard of Honor.
Action is back and forth between May and Jay and they eventually find themselves outside the ring trading chops. May seemingly takes control of Jay throughout the match, as Jay continues to fight back. Unfortunately for Jay, May’s experience edge is too much for her, and rolls her up for the 1-2-3. Post-match, Jay does not take this too lightly and she fades out May with the Queen Slayer.
In comes a surprise as Stardom’s Mina Shirakawa, arrives to avenge her former Rose Gold tag team partner. Shirakawa calls for a champagne toast of her own, and gives May another “energizer” for the night.
To cap off the night, Mercedes Moné is being interviewed and talks about her future plans and her potential competition. Moné is set to face the winner of the TBS championship bout at Dynasty and will subsequently make her in-ring debut at Double or Nothing. As she is about to answer her next question about who she wants to face, the lights turn off and is audibly attacked in the darkness. We see Moné lying on the floor with the assailant unknown.
Storm will be in action this Saturday on Collision as she takes on STARDOM’s AZM.
What did you think of tonight’s AEW Dynamite? Who are your guesses as to who attacked Moné? Let us know in the comments.
