AEW Dynamite Results – May 6, 2020

Welcome to Ringside News’ live results coverage for AEW Dynamite.
Tonight AEW returns to live TV – still no fans though – and we’re going to see Matt Hardy make his in-ring debut alongside Kenny Omega to face Chris Jericho and Sammy Guevara in a no-DQ match. This should serve as the restart of the build towards the Blood & Guts match.
Jon Moxley will also be in action tonight, facing Frankie Kazarian for no real reason. Moxley doesn’t have a clear opponent for the upcoming Double or Nothing PPV, but that should change tonight. And elsewhere, MJF makes his return, Cody faces Joey Janela, and Lance Archer takes on QT Marshall.
And that’s the card for tonight. Follow along here for live results and enjoy the show!

MJF cuts a promo in which he’s sitting on a chair with a bad CGI cityscape behind him. He says he is the guy, despite only being in the industry for six months. He says people are saying he’s great but he’s no Flair, no Rock, no Piper, but that’s just insecurity. Because all those old guys are pissed that a 24 year-old kid has taken the spotlight and he has more It factor in his pinky than they have in their bodies. But here’s the thing, that 24 year-old isn’t a kid and he can take some time off work and come right back to his throne at any time. MJF stands and two guys remove his chair and replace it with a throne.

*Commercial Break*
We get a video package of Shawn Spears discussing Cody Vs. Lance Archer, and Spears just talks about how Cody is an overrated egomaniac and Archer will finish the job he started with Dustin.
We’re back live and MJF is in the “crowd” with Shawn Spears and Wardlow. MJF says we can rest easy that he’ll be back next week. He compliments Shawn Spears and says he calls out Cody for what he really is: the American Sociopath. MJF and Spears share their admiration until Tony Schiavone says MJF will be facing Jungle Boy at Double Or Nothing and MJF is aghast.
Frankie Kazarian makes his entrance alongside Scorpio Sky and Christopher Daniels. He’ll be facing the Champ after the break.

*Commercial Break*

Brandi Rhodes cuts a promo in which she addresses Lance Archer and Jake Roberts. She says she’s not going to meet them in the ring and fall into their rap; where they corner her and Cody runs out to save her and they beat him. It’s not 1991 and she won’t fall for that. Cody is the good guy out kissing babies and running the company but she’s different, more complicated.  She says her mother taught her not to fu$k with people she doesn’t know, and that’s a lesson Jake needs. She is not Samson’s Delilah and Jake needs to keep her name out of his dirty, old mouth.
