The "Dynamite" go-home show for Double or Nothing will take place at the Mechanics Bank Arena in Bakersfield, California. The match between Black and O'Reilly was set up after last week's show, where the latter came to the aid of Adam Copeland, whom the House of Black attacked. O'Reilly's save went in vain as the House of Black outnumbered Copeland and O'Reilly, resulting in both facing the brunt of the villainous faction.

The match between Malakai Black and Kyle O'Reilly will be the first time they face off in singles competition in AEW. But they have faced each other in singles matches in the past, with the last time coming in WWE in 2017 where Black got the better of O'Reilly.
Black's feud with Copeland will culminate at the Double or Nothing pay-per-view on Sunday, where Copeland will put his AEW TNT Championship on the line inside a Barbed Wire Steel Cage.
