AEW Dynamite Blood and Guts is going to be the most violent episode in the show\u2019s history. There are more things to look forward to besides the double cage spectacular, times two.<\/p>\n

Between the men’s and the first-ever women\u2019s version of the match will be a falls count anywhere. Hangman Adam Page takes on AEW World Trios Champion and Opps member, Powerhouse Hobbs. Last week\u2019s main event saw Hobbs manhandle the Cowboy like a set of weights. Hobbs has been in killer form in 2025 and is no stranger to fighting outside the ring.<\/p>\n

The odds are somewhat against the Hangman, considering there can be no disqualifications. After weeks of hunting Samoa Joe, it would not be surprising to see Joe or Katsuyori Shibata turn the tables. However, Page is not stupid and usually comes prepared. This might be a fun palette cleanser, bridging two main event-worthy matches.<\/p>\n

There’s no use in running.<\/p>\n

First Ever Women\u2019s Blood and Guts Match <\/strong><\/h2>\n

The tag line for Blood and Guts this year is apt. One Cage. Two Rings. Three Words\u2026 It\u2019s about time.<\/p>\n

AEW\u2019s women\u2019s division has spent 2025 maximizing minutes and turning up the heat to a boiling point with each interaction. Recent injuries to Penelope Ford and Queen Aminata do not take away from the match. Their substitutes, Marina Shafir and Mina Shirakawa, have had a fantastic 2025. Disregarding how compared with the men\u2019s, there\u2019s a storyline inequality between Blood and Guts matches<\/a>, the women are going to try to steal the show.<\/p>\n

With so many intersecting rivalries, both past and present, the first half offers a range of fun mini-matches. Jamie Hayter and Thekla may end their strife. Mercedes Mone and Kris Statlander may have had some spice to their Full Gear match. Perhaps Harley Cameron might give a receipt to Megan Bayne for breaking the Australian\u2019s nose earlier this year.<\/p>\n

What many critics and non-watchers of AEW ignore about violence is how its splendour is often used to tell stories and show character growth<\/a>. For example, can Timeless Toni Storm regroup, or will she fall apart without her championship? Plus, with the rest of the AEW Women\u2019s World Tag Team Championship Tournament still to play out, big ramifications might be felt in the aftermath.<\/p>\n

Men\u2019s Blood and Guts<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The twin questions hanging over the men\u2019s Blood and Guts, high above the double cage structure, are simple:<\/p>\n

Does this chapter end? Where does everyone go next?<\/p>\n

This match, unsettling by design, will see each team led by architects of body horror looking to end the other\u2019s career. Jon Moxley, animalistic and sometimes invincible in his “bad-assery,” has appeared vulnerable in between bells. Since WrestleDream, the Death Riders leader and AEW standard bearer has never seemed weaker. Darby Allin, always willing to evoke realism and risk his body for his art, has the king near to checkmate.<\/p>\n

Is the fall or a change coming for the Death Rider\u2019s leadership inevitable? Will Roderick Strong join the Conglomeration? Again, proving the critics of AEW and violence wrong<\/a>, intrigue rests on the story and how the brutality will help deliver its conclusion.<\/p>\n
