Yeesh, Jericho looked a little outmatched there, for sure. At one point, he didn’t kick out at all, when he should have. I enjoy that he wants to give some new kids a rub, but there were just some moments here that came to a screeching halt.

Match Time: 11:44
Hager has something to get off his chest. Two weeks since they’ve had an intervention, and in those two weeks, they have won because everyone has done their job – except for one: Wardlow. Where is he? Away for family business. THIS is family business. Wardlow thinks he can choose when to show up? MJF and Wardlow wanted to join, because they know that every week, they are a constant shining star. Always there. Don’t want or need rest. He knows Wardlow is an asset, but he’s also an asshole, and it’s obvious they don’t see eye to eye, so Hager and Wardlow will meet in the middle of the ring next week. Wardlow better show up.
We get a music video from The Acclaimed, who get some clean lines in on The Bucks, but still, for some reason, just come off as hip hop lite instead of actual hip hop influenced members of the roster. I know this is incredibly subjective, but I see little value in them “rapping.” Hoping it grows on me, but hasn’t quite yet.
WE ARE BACK, and Tony is in the middle of the ring. Not me. I’m at home with no pants on. Schiavone is waiting for Sting. He comes out with hair lookin kind of thin. Tony asks him how it feels with him being back on TNT. Sting says he has come full circle, he’s back in the jungle, and regarding the jungle, he was an integral part of building the original jungle, and he is glad to see it’s still intact and thriving and alive.
Sting wants to go back in time. He remembers when he was looking for the break, watching the matches with one of the greatest of all time – Dusty Rhodes. He remembers Dusty telling him one time, that they’re going to put some color on Sting’s face and tights and boots. Dusty wanted him to glow in the dark, baby, and Dusty’s going to put him with Ric Flair, and they’re going to get funky like a monkey, if you will. It wasn’t too long after that where he was, indeed, wrestling Flair in main event matches. Fast forward now, and when he sees Cody, he cant describe it. He couldn’t stay away.
WELCOME HOME chant.
Regarding Darby…
NOPE. Taz is here. He knows this is very emotional, but what Sting is saying would bring a tear to a glass eye. He’s known Sting for a long time, and anyone that knows him, knows Sting is about Sting, and part of that is because of Tony building him up for years. He’s sick of it.
Starks says they don’t care bout Stings business with Cody or Darby. What they care about is that he keeps sticking his nose in their business. Starks wants Sting to know that he’s going to get hurt plaing around in this jungle. Talk about the jungle, says Taz, but he’s standing here with four hungry tigers that are about to bite his head off right now.
The lights go out. They are back on, and Darby is in the ring. Taz sees the bat and skateboard, and thinks twice. He says come 1/6, the TNT Title will be on the line against Cage.
Cage says he doesn’t want to wait; he’ll take Darby now. Let’s do it. His goons hold him back as Darby spins his board in his hand.
Team Taz leaves. Darby stares Sting down slowly, grabs his title, and that’s that.
BACK FROM THE BREAK, and MJF has a heart to heart with Santana, saying he’s here for them. Santana tells MJF to keep his head up, always keep his head up.
Match 2: The Dark Order (#5, #10, and Colt Cabana) vs Jurassic Express

Winners: Jurassic Express
Even though they were going to lose, you still saw The Dark Order add a little fold into their status with Colt going full on with his heel turn, and the others including him as a team member fully. The right team one, as we are looking forward to a match in two weeks that Tully made me wanna see now. Solid outing.
Total Rating: **1/2
Match Time: 10:31
Tony enters the ring for a short interview. Get it? Cuz Marko…
Tony brings up their rankings. Stunt says It feels so good to be back on Dynamite, but Tully is on the screen with FTR. He says that he is with 2020 tag team of the year, and every time they walk down that aisle and hold up the symbol. He calls them Jurassic Park that he understands they wanna take them down. He tells them they have two weeks to prepare. They’re chomping at the bit. It used to be business, but now it’s personal. They are on a quest to get the titles back, and they won’t have dinosaurs take them down. He tells Marko, specifically, that if he sticks his nose in the business, Tully may have a flashback to the 80s. lol. Nice.
MARVEZ has found Omega and Don at their hotel. Don offers a statement, but says this is their private time. It’s creepy that Marvez is here, but since he is here, Don wants to get something off his chest. 30 years in this business, how does Khan let the wrestlers run wild? We got Pac making title matches. He mocks Don. He’s never seen this; it’s gotta stop. They don’t get dictated to by the talent.
Marvez asks Kenny his thoughts. Kenny has a story; a message to Fenix and Pac. Let’s take a year in review; AEW tag team title championship match, Rey choked. AAA, he choked. Eliminator tournament against his own brother; Rey choked. Not only that, but got a little bump on his head and couldn’t continue. What happens when you face someone a little pissed off, someone who doesn’t love you, to the person who beated Penta’s ass? He is worried he may put Rey out for good, but don’t worry, he has friends at Impact that would be happy to take him back.
Don says that he isn’t sure he’d take him back, he’s a little injury prone.
Omega says when that phone rings, people like Omega answer the call, but Rey gets hurt along the way. He gets hurt, Omega gets titles. That’s it.
Eeek, a solid promo with a weak ass ending there.
Match 3: Butcher (w/ Blade and Bunny) vs Pac (w/ Penta)
They go forehea to forehead until Butcher sends Pac into the corner. Pac ducks a right hand, kicks the hammy, ducks again, kicks the hammy, Butcher tosses Pac over the top rope to.

Well, it wasn’t pretty, but I have no complaints about that, either. Hard hitting on both accounts, and Eddie on commentary added so much.
Total Rating: ***
Match Time: 11:40
Lance gets into the ring to stare down Pac and Penta. Eddie gets back on commentary, telling us that Lance won’t get him because he’s too worried about Pac and Penta. Lance leaves the ring with a smile.
Backstage, Jade has a message for Brandi. Motherhood is a beautiful thing, but how convenient that when she shows up, Brandi pops up pregnant. Don’t worry, though, all her duties and the division will be taken care of, now that she is gone. Now, Shaq has called out Cody, she is calling out Brandi. So what’s next? Find her a worthy opponent for her time, because she is tired of this shit. Time is ticking.
Yeah, still not interested.
MIRO, KIP, AND PENELOPE are with Tony, and they have received all of the tweets about how much we adore them. Kip wants to give us a gift. They want to show us the date. Miro is ready.
They turn, and The Best Friends are here!!!!
Miro stands in front of Kip and Penelope, waiting for the attack.
Oh, but it’s a fakeout, as Kip and Miro laugh it off. We go to live footage of Trent being taken into an ambulance backstage, with Chuck and Orange by his side. They hop into the ambulance and head out with Trent.
Kip says it’s a shame, that The Best Friends couldn’t be here. Let’s show them the actual wedding announcement.

A nice little mini saga from these guys, that really had some level of importance. My only gripe is that ending. I know it’s one of Dustin’s finishers, but I just didn’t like that it was what ended it.

BACKSTAGE, Spears is with Tony. He asks why Tony left for 15 years? He was burnt out. Spears says this is exactly why he asked Tony to do this interview. You could change the three letters, but cannot change the glass ceiling. He is better than 95% of this roster. He looks better, talks better, works better. The only doubt is in management. His confidence is high as hell. He dug himself out of a whole that Cody and Tony Khan put him in. He recognizes the path, and it won’t happen again.
Tony says the problem with all this might be Spears. He is the common denominator. Has he ever thought about that?
Spears says yes, he has thought about it, and not for a single second has h thought that .He can work anywhere in the world, but wastes his time ith guys like Schiavone? Tell Khan that he will come back IF he feels like it.
BACKSTGGE, Dasha is with Hikaru Shida. She is about to face Alex Gracia, but Abadon has been terrorizing her. Has this affected her ability to prepare?

A fun main event that, on the surface, looked a bit overbooked, but also made The Acclaimed look pretty good. They more than held their own, and although it went nearly 15 minutes, we didn’t get a whole lot of non-selling and the typical finisher fest. A good main event to a good episode of Dynamite.
