AEW Dynamite Results (7/31/2024):

The show opens up with AEW American Champion MJF making his way down to the ring as Excalibur, Tony Schiavone and Taz welcomes us. MJF has a microphone in hand and is introduced by ring announcer Justin Roberts.

Excalibur says it was one week ago that MJF rechristened the AEW International Championship as the AEW American Championship. Schiavone then calls MJF a fraud. MJF then starts off by saying he knows people in the south are not very bright, which Excalibur calls low hanging fruit. MJF then tells the simple minded folks to keep their meth addicted mouths shut. MJF then says he was going to talk to real America. MJF then says there was no class in the south. MJF then says he singlehandedly defeated the redcoat terrorist Will Ospreay with ease and brought gold back to our great nation. MJF then says he will walk into enemy territory on August 25 at All Out in London and beat Ospreay again. MJF then asks the fans to show some respect by standing up for their American hero.

Will Ospreay’s music then hits and Ospreay makes his way down to the ring, which leads to MJF leaving the ring and heading to the stage. Ospreay says MJF should keep running after what he said about his family last week. Ospreay then says Americans love their flag just like he loves his country’s flag. Ospreay then says no one is acknowledging MJF’s title after he threw the AEW International Championship in the trash. Ospreay then praises former champions PAC, Orange Cassidy, Jon Moxley, Rey Fénix and Roderick Strong and says they would all put it on the line for the people. Ospreay then says he gets it, but MJF does not represent the American spirt or work ethic. Ospreay then says he will restore honor to the AEW International Championship. MJF then refers to himself as an American hero and says he lets his actions do the talking. MJF then says he will annihilate Ospreay in front of his countrymen. MJF then says he doesn’t think Ospreay will make it to Wembley because everybody dies. “The Murderhawk Monster” Lance Archer then makes his way down to the ring for the first match of the night, which is a Singles Match.

Singles Match: “The Aerial Assassin” Will Ospreay vs. “The Murderhawk Monster” Lance Archer

The match starts off with Archer hitting a chokeslam on Ospreay. Archer then hits Ospreay with a series of elbows in the corner, but Ospreay responds with a forearm. Archer then hits Ospreay with a forearm of his own, then follows it up with a springboard kick. The action then spills to the outside and Archer hits a bodyslam on Ospreay on the floor, but Ospreay responds with a hurricanrana on Archer that sends him crashing into the barricade. Ospreay and Archer then get back inside the ring and Ospreay looks to fly off the top, but Archer pulls him down. Ospreay then hits a kick on Archer’s head and looks to fly off the ropes.

After the match, MJF blindsides Ospreay and delivers some right hands on him. MJF then hits Ospreay with a brainbuster and puts on the Dynamite Diamond Ring, but Kyle Fletcher makes his way down to the ring to help Ospreay out. MJF then demands to be given a mic as Fletcher explains to Don Callis why he just helped Ospreay. Fletcher says Ospreay is his best friend and his brother and Ospreay is laying in a heap on the ground because of MJF. Fletcher then says he heard what MJF said last week and MJF only cares about himself rather than America and recalls dreaming of moving from Australia to America because that’s where the best wrestle. Fletcher then says the U.S. has given him everything and everyone is sick of MJF. Fletcher then tells MJF to get in the ring so he can beat him down and while MJF initially squares up, he ultimately decides against it. MJF then agrees to give Fletcher a match next week. MJF then says he will Kangaroo Kick Fletcher’s goddamn face off. MJF then says he will make sure Fletcher meets the same faith as Daniel Garcia by breaking his neck and leaving him in a pool of his own blood. MJF then says he couldn’t wait to see the look on Ospreay’s face when he’s done dismantling his boy. Fletcher then raises Ospreay’s arm and then they hug.

We then get a video package of Swerve Strickland’s reign as AEW World Champion.

We then get highlights of Chris Jericho vs. Minoru Suzuki from last week’s show followed by Katsuyori Shibata saving Suzuki.

We then head to the back, where Alex Marvez is interviewing FTW Champion “The Learning Tree” Chris Jericho, who is accompanied by “The Redwood” Big Bill and “The Bad Apple” Bryan Keith. Bill has a birthday cake to celebrate Jericho holding the FTW Championship for 102 days. Jericho says the cake will not end up in anyone’s face like it normally does in pro wrestling. Jericho then says Shibata had no one left to help him and they set up Shibata vs. Keith for next week. Bill then hands the cake to Marvez and Keith teases shoving it in Marvez’s face.

We then get the entrances of the next match of the night, which is a CMLL World Women’s Championship Eliminator Match.

We then get video footage of the pep talk Jeff Jarrett gave to “The American Dragon” Bryan Danielson on last week’s show.

Blackpool Combat Club’s “The American Dragon” Bryan Danielson then makes his way down to the ring to address the AEW fans.

Bryan Danielson starts off by saying it’s great to be in Greenville, then recalls having his engagement pictures with his now-wife Brie Bella in Greenville. Danielson then says he and Brie were recently looking through the pictures and the good old days are gone before you know it. Danielson then says he wants to walk about presence and promises tonight and he’s been lucky in his career. Danielson then says although he was forced to retire, he’s been able to be present since he returned to professional wrestling. Danielson then says the last three years in AEW has been fun and incredible, but before he came down to the ring, he was able to be present behind the curtain and during the fan’s cheers for him. Danielson then says he promised his daughter that he would stop wrestling when she turned 7 and the last professional wrestling contract he ever signed will be with AEW. Danielson then says his AEW contract ends tomorrow and he promises to give his best every time he steps in the ring. Danielson then says he set out to do two things in AEW when he arrived: kick people’s head’s in and become AEW World Champion. Danielson then says he has accomplished the former, but not yet the latter. Danielson then says his match at All In for the title will be his last shot and while doctors and his family advise him against wrestling, he promises to give everything he has at Wembley Stadium. Danielson then says he will go all in on August 25.

AEW World Champion Swerve Strickland’s music then hits and he makes his way down to the ring alongside Prince Nana. Strickland tells Danielson that he has an immense amount of respect for him and says he’d be rooting for him at All In if it were any other time. Strickland then says now is his time rather than Danielson and unlike Danielson, he was successful in winning the AEW World Championship like he said he would. Strickland then says Danielson said he’d kick everyone’s head in, but he couldn’t handle it when people kicked back. Strickland then says Danielson had a classic against Will Ospreay, but got hurt and he got pinned during Anarchy In The Arena while he retained his title against Ospreay. Strickland then questions if Danielson’s body can handle being AEW World Champion, then promises to Danielson that he is the most dangerous man in AEW and will walk out of All In holding his title. Strickland then says when he’s done with Danielson, Danielson won’t be able to walk. Strickland then looks to leave the ring, but Danielson stops him and says he has another promise. Danielson then says he will never wrestle again if he doesn’t win the AEW World Championship at All In, then ups the stakes on August 25 and throws out the challenge of Title vs. Career. Danielson then offers his hand to Strickland and Strickland shakes it. Strickland then calls Danielson’s challenge noble, but tells him to keep his promise to his family rather than him. Swerve then poses with his championship, while Danielson stood by.

Renee Paquette then catches up with Danielson as he returned backstage. Jeff Jarrett, Karen Jarrett, Jay Lethal and Sonjay Dutt then applauds Danielson. Jarrett says that’s how you go all in. Danielson then slaps Jarrett’s hat out of his hand and tells him that if he wants to see if he’s all in, then he should face him next week.

We then get the entrances of the next match of the night, which is a Trios Match.

Trios Match: The Conglomeration (“Freshly Squeezed” Orange Cassidy, ROH World Champion Mark Briscoe and “The Stone Pitbull” Tomohiro Ishii) vs. The Undisputed Kingdom’s Roderick Strong, The Beast Mortos and Don Callis Family’s “El Toro Blanco” RUSH

Caster then says they are looking for FTR in their own home territory, but they are nowhere to be found. Caster then says he wanted to see the two guys who said he’s not a serious wrestler because he makes rap videos. Caster then says maybe FTR are not serious wrestlers since they didn’t show up in their own hometown. Bowens then says they will come to FTR by appearing on Saturday’s Collision.

Paquette then asks May what Storm ever did to her. May then says noting and that’s why she is perfect. May then says she loved Storm and she gave her everything she ever wanted.
