AEW Dynamite 8/27/25
Live from the ECW Arena (2300 Arena) in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania! Excalibur is joined by Taz and Ian Riccaboni. There’s supposed to be a match, but Dax and Cash are here with Big Stoke instead. Dax isn’t happy because he was pinned by the illegal man on Sunday, and FTR want to talk to Paul Turner. Dax wants Paul Turner to go home and tell his wife and kid that he couldn’t do his job because of an idiot, just like Dax had to. Paul Turner will NOT turn his decision over. Stokely wants Turner to hop off the fans D’s and overturn the decision. Turner shoves Stokely and FTR tease a Shatter Machine, but Adam Copeland’s music hits!
FTR look at the entrance for Copeland, and he’s there, but Christian comes from behind and hits the Killswitch on Stokely! FTR and C&C brawl all over the place until security finally breaks them up. Chrisitan gets on the microphone and says they took care of his problem, and now it’s time to take care of Adam’s. Christian has heard that Dax has a father, and Cash does too, and…
Copeland takes the mic and say no no no.. but ahh the hell with it as he gives it back to Christian. AND THAT BICH IS DEAD!
Copeland takes the mic. All Out. Toronto. C&C vs. FTR, September 20th!

Winner: Jon Moxley
Rating: ***1/4.
After the match, Moxley tells Garcia he was THIS close.
Wheeler Yuta takes the mic after the match, as Moxley and Marina Shafir talk to Garcia on the outside of the ring. Yuta says Moxley isn’t going to waste his breath on Allin, and the answer is NO. Moxley and Garcia are having a spirited conversation on the outside, almost looking like Garcia is being recruited?
Back from break, and Wheeler Yuta is in the ring again. Yuta says the cheers from the fans don’t mean shit. What do the cheers to for Chuck Taylor? Will Ospreay? Bryan Danielson?
LIGHTS GO OUT.
SEND HOOK. THE BAT SIGNAL IS LIT.
Hook chokes out Yuta and hits him with a flying forearm.
A video of MJF from after Forbidden Door is shown. MJF is upset, upset with the fans. The fans chanted “You Deserve It” to all of the things he’s done wrong, but MJF is the BITW, baby. MJF is going to burn Mark Briscoe alive. Now, MJF has to wait a week to execute his contract, as Tony Khan announces that there are no more “cash ins” for these contracts, they require seven day’s notice. This contract isn’t for a match, it’s for a soul, and once he’s through with Mark Briscoe… he’s coming.
Match #2. Megan Bayne & Penelope Ford vs. Harley Cameron & Kris Statlander

Winners: Harley Cameron & Kris Statlander
Rating: **1/4. Paint by numbers tag match here, and the whole Statlander thing is weird. She was approached by Moxley a few times, nothing yet has come of it, she hates Willow, she doesn’t hate Willow…
Bayne attacks after the bell but Statlander gets the upper hand. Willow hits the ring and stares Statlander down, as Harley Cameron hugs everyone.
Renee Paquette is here and she welcomes Mercedes Mone, aka “Nine Belts Mone.” Renee runs down Mone’s recent accomplishments, and Mone says she wants to SMASH Ultimo Dragon’s record of ten titles! Renee brings up Alex Windsor and Mone says she’s just mad because her man’s Will Ospreay did the Mone dance with her. If Windsor keeps it up, she’ll put Windsor in the hospital next to the Billy Goat.
Cameras caught up with Mark Briscoe down in Sandy Fork. Briscoe says he couldn’t make it to Philly tonight, but he has a good reason… baby Mac Briscoe! ANOTHER ONE! Briscoe hands the baby off and says this isn’t for pure ears. Briscoe said he’s going to set MJF’s hopes and dreams on fire.
Match #3. All-Star Eight-Man Tag: BroDido & JetSpeed vs. The Don Callis Family
Bandido and Hechicero start, previewing Friday’s Ring of Honor main event. Dozens of pin attempts back and forth until Bandido celebrates an arm drag a little too long and Hechicero catches him from behind. Bandido tags Brody as Alexander and Takeshita come in as well.

Double tope con hilo by JetSpeed and an asai moonsault by Bandido take out the Don Callis Family! Commercial time.

Bailey runs into a boot in the corner but hurricanranas Alexander anyway, of the top. Shooting Star knee drop misses and Alexander rolls up Bailey for the win!
Winners: Don Callis Family
Rating: ***. Lots of these types of matches lately… maybe too much? I fully expected Hechicero to get the win, gaining some momentum ahead of the PPV this week. The match was good, but the most interesting portion was the emerging Okada/Takeshita showdown, which will be amazing.
Hangman Page is here! Page wishes Will Ospreay well, and thanks him for everything he’s done for him, and for AEW. MJF, you threw every trick in the book at Page, and you still failed. If MJF ever actually signs that contract, Hangman will beat his ass before the ink is dry.
Oh, Don Callis is back again. Don Callis wants the world heavyweight championship back in the Don Callis Family. It’s not a question of if they get the title, it’s a question of which one is going to take it from him. Lance Archer, Rocky Romero, Hechicero, and Josh Alexander hit the ring but Page dives over the top! The Family start putting the boots to Page, but JetSpeed is here. The numbers are still too much, until KENNY OMEGA ARRIVES. OMEGA AND PAGE REUNITE! Snap dragons for everyone. V-Trigger Buckshot combo to Lance Archer! Omega and Page shake hands!
Match #4. AEW World Trios Championship: The Opps vs. Ricochet & The Gates of Agony
Hobbs with a big powerslam to Ricochet and a shoulder tackle to Kaun. Shibata in now and he exchanges chops with Kaun, and this is going on forever. Man, these are hard. Running boot and a stalling dropkick by Shibata. Overhook suplex by Shibata gets a one count. Ricochet knees Shibata as he hits the ropes and then proceeds to dump him outside as we go to commercial.

Double clothesline by Hobbs. Toa is in.. MEATSSSSSSS. Both guys trade shots as Toa clotheslines Hobbs in the corner. Hobbs returns the favor with about a dozen of his own. Double clothesline.

Hobbs in now and Toa levels him with a clothesline. JOEANAGE to Kaun. Springboard dropkick by Ricohet to Joe and a running SSP. Two count.

Spinebuster by Hobbs, PK by Shibata, and the Kokina Clutch finishes this one!
Winners and STILL AEW World Trios Champs: The Opps
Rating: ***. Short and sweet, and brutal. Lots of big meaty meat men in this one, somewhere Big E is proud. The Opps are awesome, by the way.
The Gates of Agony are carrying Ricochet out of the ring as the Hurt Syndicate’s music hits. Lashley and Benjamin are looking for a fight as both teams brawl to the back.
Match #5. Falls Count Anywhere: Claudio Castagnoli vs. Darby Allin
Darby jumps Claudio in the parking lot and here we go! Claudio puts Darby into a shopping cart and throws him into rows of chair, before body slamming him through a television. Claudio drags Darby to the entrance, as he swings Darby into the steel barricade! Two count. Darby rolls in the ring, flying back out with a low suicide dive. Two. Darby now climbs one of the pillars by the ramp and he’s got to be 20 feet up… Coffin Splash on Claudio! Jeez. Two count. Back in the ring, Darby charges and Claudio pops him up into a European uppercut! Two count, Claudio is asking the fans and the announcers to move? Oh no. Bam Bam and Spike? CLAUDIO MILITARY PRESSES DARBY ALLIN OVER HIS HEAD, AND RUNS AND THROWS HIM THROUGH THE ANNOUNCE TABLE FROM THE RING. HOLY S. Immediate commercial break. We’re back, and there’s plunder in the ring and the headsets aren’t really working, but we’re back. Gutwrench by Claudio on the apron. Chair shot by Claudio to the back of Darby. Darby dives on a guillotine choke, Claudio deadlifts him into a suplex, and Darby escapes. Claudio charges Darby with a European uppercut, misses, and eats the table in the corner! Chair shots to the back by Darby now. Three, four, five. Claudio crotches Darby on the top rope, before heading up himself. Avalanche gutwrench suplex by Claudio sends Darby into a pile of chairs! One, two, no! Claudio biels Darby into the table in the corner but the table doesn’t break. Claudio powerbombs him through the table instead! Two count! Claudio removes the turnbuckle and launches Darby into it, but Darby lands on his feet on the middle rope, and stomps Claudio in the stomach. Darby goes to the eyes of Claudio and rolls him up for two. Drop toe hold by Darby into the exposed steel! Code Red! One, two, no! Coffin Drop! Two of them! One, two, three!
Winner: Darby Allin
Rating: ***3/4. Man, this ruled. Darby and Claudio are the modern-day Bam Bam and Spike. I could watch these two do this for a long time. Claudio looked like an unstoppable monster, but Darby can’t die, and he just barely held him down for the three. Great main event.
Gabe Kidd hits the ring and dumps Darby with a German suplex. Moxley and Marina Shafir are here, too. Darby tires to fight off both guys and does, sending Kidd into Moxley and running out of the arena.
Final Thoughts: The first of two weeks of shows at the ECW Arena, let’s hope the fans keep up this type of energy. Yes, the wrestling on this show was good, but I think what AEW did right tonight was immediately start setting up new and exciting programs, as well as matches for All Out. Moxley/Darby, C&C vs. FTR, Gates of Agony/Ricochet vs. Hurt Syndicate, Moxley recruiting Garcia, Hangman and Omega vs. Don Callis Family, just to name a few. 8.25/10.
