AEW Dynamite Results from AEW Dynamite Tonight (1/7/25)

Jim Ross returned to commentary and Don Callis Family’s new acquisition

Ross made his way to commentary to much fanfare. Backstage, Renee Paquette provided an update to the night’s trios match—someone attacked Mike Bailey and Kevin Knight. Or something. Callis revealed Jake Doyle (otherwise known as Jake Something) and Mark Davis took them out. The Demand thanked them for their effort.

Jon Moxley defeated Shelton Benjamin for the AEW Continental Championship Eliminator

Benjamin and Moxley shook hands. He quickly gained the advantage over Moxley’s limbs, at one point nearing an Ankle Lock. Following a suplex and chops in the corner, Moxley returned fire with some slaps of his own. The pair brawled outside, with the challenger whipping the champion into the barricade. Moxley gained the upper hand on the stairs amid the crowd, banging Benjamin against the railing. Back at ringside, Benjamin eked out a suplex, only to be flung into the ring steps.

Simultaneously clotheslining the other, the competitors sat in a daze. Moments later, Benjamin sent Moxley plummeting with a superplex. He followed with more suplexes in succession. Moxley slashed out Benjamin’s momentum with a cutter. Benjamin caught Moxley in a standing crossface, which ultimately faltered by way of rope break. Nose bloody, Moxley ran with his lariat into a Paydirt via Benjamin. Strategically placing his kicks, Benjamin targeted Moxley’s weak points (including his currently weary knees) and followed with a knee. A Paradigm Shift altered the match’s trajectory, allowing for a bulldog choke with one minute remaining. With time running out, Moxley pivoted Benjamin’s triangle choke into a pin, sneakily earning a 3-count. Champion and challenger shook hands.

(I loved the blend of styles. The technical, grounded, and even athletic style of Benjamin meshed well with the also technical but mostly brawler style of Moxley.)

Jack Perry & Young Bucks (Matt & Nick Jackson) defeated The Demand (Ricochet, Bishop Kaun, & Toa Liona)

Instantly, Perry and the Bucks surprised their opponents with acrobatic maneuvers. In the ring, Perry speared Ricochet before conducting the Bucks to demolish him with lariats and kicks. Perry DDT’d Ricochet with a Bucks-assist. Liona and Kaun came to their leader’s rescue, but the Bucks returned them outside. The Demand finally grasped control by throwing their weight and their opponents’ weights around outside. Nick soon swung a comeback, kicking Kaun and Ricochet every which way. He coordinated with Matt to elbow drop both Ricochet and Kaun. The Bucks disoriented Ricochet with a Stomp + Powerbomb combination.

Liona propped the Bucks and Perry atop his shoulders, crushing them with one Samoan Drop. A rejuvenated Perry’s energy immediately diminished with a Gates of Agony beatdown and a Vertigo from Ricochet. Perry and the Bucks united for a triple superkick, isolating Ricochet. Nick eliminated the approaching Gates of Agony. The Bucks’ BTE Trigger and Perry’s knee obliterated Ricochet enough for the former Jungle Boy to capitalize with a pinfall.

Post-match: Mark Davis and Jake Doyle clobbered Perry and the Bucks, with assistance from the sore losers in The Demand.  El Clon was also there. JetSpeed hobbled to the ring in a sprint. The arena darkened and relit, revealing Andrade El Idolo, fresh from NJPW’s Wrestle Kingdom weekend, free from his WWE non-compete clause. FTR and Stokely Hathaway briefly appeared at the entrance for some reason and left.

(The hype for Jake Doyle and Andrade El Idolo is real. But regarding the performance in the match itself, let’s give Gates of Agony their due. When they weren’t present as often as their contemporaries, they’d always try to show out. But since aligning with Ricochet, they’re everywhere, ready to rock and roll. Now, they rile crowds in a frenzy with their work and receive their flowers on social media. Big ups to them.)

Willow Nightingale TBS Championship Celebration

Nightingale shared love for her AEW Women’s Tag Team Champion co-holder, the TBS Championship, and recently reunited friend Kris Statlander. Addressing her possible opponents, Nightingale invited any challenger to greet her, especially former title holder Mercedes Mone. Mone, dressed in a mourning white outfit, obliged. Kindly, Nightingale listed all of Mone’s accolades from the last year and throughout her career.

Sobbing, Mone toppled the table full of celebrations and screamed, shoving everyone and falling face-first into Nightingale’s cake. Nightingale proceeded to slam her right through the cake. She then danced a conga line around Mone’s body, joined by Cameron, Statlander, and Renee Paquette.

Mark Briscoe on the Briscoe Farm

Briscoe reflected on his recent wins as TNT Champion. He then shifted focus to Hechicero on the January 10 episode of AEW Collision.

Triangle of Madness promo

Thekla, Skye Blue, and Julia Hart challenged Kris Statlander and the Babes of Wrath to a trios match for January 14’s Maximum Carnage.

Bandido defeated Sammy Guevara

Guevara sought wrist control over the ROH Champion, but had to resort to kicks. However, Bandido’s kicks were far mightier. Playing possum, Guevara unearthed some liquid which he spat in Bandido’s face, following suit with a DDT. Trading running lariats with Guevara, Bandido pulled out a superkick that dropped him dead in his tracks. Guevara floated his comeback to his ringside-bound opponent with a Shooting Star Press. Bandido attempted a 21-plex; nevertheless ran into a DDT. He fired back with a cutter and an almost-successful 21-plex. Guevara blasted him with a knee strike as blood dripped from his nostrils. Bandido superceded a knee strike and finished Guevara off with a 21-plex.

(It should be illegal to have Bandido put on any match less than a colloquially agreed 4-5 star match, but we just saw one anyway.)

MJF addressed Bandido

Accompanied by Jon Cruz, MJF posited himself as a bigger star in Mexico with CMLL than Bandido. Stating that he respected Mexico’s history, culture, and language, he had Cruz repeat everything he said, but in Spanish. Bandido did not like the words said to him. Cruz and MJF then insulted Oklahoma. Despite Bandido winning the Dynamite Diamond Ring at Winter is Coming, MJF requested that he hand him the ring back anyway. He even offered Bandido a pay-per-view match in about 5-10 years. Cruz attempted to translate, but Bandido assured everyone that he could speak English just fine.

Cruz apprehended Bandido’s wrists from behind, allowing a low blow kick from MJF. Bandido fought out of his struggle, eventually landing a 21-plex on MJF and posing with the AEW Men’s World Championship.

Marina Shafir versus Toni Storm ended in DQ

Storm snatched control following a lock-up. She clobbered Shafir, ordering Wheeler Yuta and Daniel Garcia to stay away. Shafir took advantage with a slam. Shafir taunted Storm by dancing with her before decapitating her with a lariat. Once again, she played with her food by dancing. A big dropkick sent Shafir flying, giving Storm some breathing room. Storm continued her fiery offence, headbutting Shafir and pulling her in for a pin. Yuta pulled the referee out of the ring, ending the match in disqualification.

Post-match: Shafir resumed a beatdown of Storm and did the same to an oncoming Mina Shirakawa. Luther, Storm’s butler, implored them to stop. Roderick Strong and Orange Cassidy sprinted for the save. Claudio Castagnoli appeared out of thin air and removed his shirt. Strong replied, doing the same. Cassidy danced Storm and Shirakawa to his side.

(Not as substantial a match as I’d have liked, but at least we got a women’s match. Still, a bit more than the bare minimum, please.)

Renee Paquette interviewed Pac

Pac informed Paquette that he wasn’t afraid of Allin. Allin, who had been searching for Pac all night, demanded a match. Pac refused and told him to jog on. Allin convinced him with a beatdown before the Death Riders could come to his aid.

Hangman Adam Page & Swerve Strickland defeated The Opps (Powerhouse Hobbs & HOOK)  in a Lights Out Tag Match

The lights flickered on and off, but the walls did not ooze green slime. Page brawled with Hobbs while Strickland withstood HOOK. Hobbs, a chair firmly upon him, careened into the barricade. Strickland held HOOK by the neck and hair, positioning him for a Death Valley Driver. Page landed an Orihara Moonsault to Hobbs. The lights turned back on. Strickland tenderized HOOK’s chest and planted his boot into the New Yorker’s neck. Hobbs mowed Page over, leaving Strickland to be side suplexed out of the ring.

With a table propped up in one corner, the Opps hoped to send Page through it. Despite putting up a gnarly fight that rattled Hobbs, HOOK ultimately flung Page through the thin wooden table. Strickland lent Page a staple gun, which he happily used on HOOK with no remorse. With familiar-looking wild eyes, Page flung drywall at Hobbs’s face when Strickland’s staple gun failed to dent him. Dragging a bed of cinder blocks in the ring, Page and Strickland failed to send anyone through it. Hobbs laid Strick upon it, but before he could sandwich him with a chair, Prince Nana stole it from him.

Finally, Hobbs managed to press slam Strickland on the cinder blocks. Page halted any follow-up, sending forearms into Hobbs’s face. HOOK pulled Page out of the ring, which only caused the cowboy to grab his leg. The Opps Dojo swarmed Page and Strickland enough to lend Hobbs enough time to wrap a chain around their necks. Prince Nana soaked Hobbs’s face with hot coffee, permitting Page and Strickland to lay flat the Opps Dojo. Page juked Hobbs into accidentally tackling HOOK to the ringside. Strickland’s House Call trounced Hobbs’s pin attempt to page after a Spinebuster. Sensing danger, Strickland bowled over the Dojo with a Swerve Stomp. He returned to Swerve Stomp Hobbs into Page’s Deadeye on the cinder blocks. Weakened, HOOK suffered a chain-wrapped punch by Page before a House Call from Swerve pressed its metal into his skull. Page hung HOOK by the chain, quickly tapping out the young wrestler.

Final Thoughts

Andrade’s third return to the company was nice and a highlight of the show following his appearance during NJPW’s Wrestle Kingdom weekend. The Lights Out Tag Match was a delightful bit of painful carnage. While the post-match follow-up to Toni Storm & Marina Shafir’s match was entertaining, their match was all too brief. To be fair, that was the point, but the bar shouldn’t be so low to say “at least there was a women’s match”. Plus, we were subjected to a Sammy Guevara match on AEW television programming in 2026. I guess this is the price to pay for the opener that was Moxley versus Benjamin and the chaotic main event that closed.
