With<strong> Orange Cassidy<\/strong> in their corner, they face the team of<strong> Kip Sabian<\/strong> and <strong>Jimmy Havoc<\/strong>.\u00a0 Kip Sabian is fresh off a defeat at the hands of Dustin Rhodes just last week.\u00a0 Speaking of fresh, Sabian&#8217;s partner for the night, Jimmy Havoc, is fresh off a defeat at the hands of the &#8220;Freshly Squeezed&#8221; Orange Cassidy.\u00a0 However, Chuck Taylor&#8217;s most recent bout was a defeat at the hands of this week&#8217;s opponent, Kip Sabian.\u00a0 The only man in this match to have won in his last showing is Trent, who &#8211; alongside Chuck Taylor &#8211; defeated <strong>Kenny Omega<\/strong> and <strong>Michael Nakazawa<\/strong> two weeks ago.\u00a0 This should be a fun match.\u00a0 What role will <strong>Penelope Ford<\/strong> play in the ending?<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Mr. Brodie Lee vs Marko Stunt<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-67572\" src=\"https:\/\/lastwordonprowrestling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2020\/04\/Brodie-Lee-vs-Marko-Stunt-e1588010023228.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\"><\/p>\n<p>Poor <strong>Marko Stunt<\/strong>.\u00a0 After being absolutely dismantled by <strong>Lance Archer<\/strong> just a few short weeks ago, it comes to this.\u00a0 We all love an underdog story in pro-wrestling and there have been some true greats.\u00a0 <strong>Rey Mysterio<\/strong>,<strong> Daniel Bryan<\/strong>, <strong>Eddie Guerrero<\/strong> are the three who first come to mind.\u00a0 Will Marko Stunt add his name to the list in a David vs Goliath showing against <strong>Brodie Lee<\/strong>? Probably not.\u00a0 This is another quick match for Lee and another big defeat for Stunt.\u00a0 Expect the &#8220;Exalted One&#8221; to go over in a relative squash match here.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Jon Moxley Promo<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-67574\" src=\"https:\/\/lastwordonprowrestling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2020\/04\/Jon-Moxley-Talks-e1588010146115.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\"><\/p>\n<p>This segment is being billed as &#8220;what does <strong>Jon Moxley<\/strong> have to say?&#8221; The fact is, nobody knows.\u00a0 Nobody knows what goes through the mind of Moxley, therefore no one can predict what his mind will make him say.\u00a0 He recently defeated <strong>Jake Hager<\/strong> in a gruelling match; billed by owner <strong>Tony Khan<\/strong> as &#8220;the most anticipated match in AEW history&#8221;.\u00a0 Did it live up to its building? It is hard to say.\u00a0 However, what&#8217;s next for Moxley after that match should be revealed here.\u00a0 Tune in.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>TNT Championship Tournament Semi-Final: Lance Archer vs Dustin Rhodes<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-67573\" src=\"https:\/\/lastwordonprowrestling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2020\/04\/Dustin-Rhodes-vs-Lance-Archer-e1588010087565.jpg\" alt=\"AEW Dynamite\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In what will be a massive test for the dominant <strong>Lance Archer<\/strong>, a match with <strong>Dustin Rhodes<\/strong> awaits.\u00a0 Dustin memorably won his quarter-final match against Kip Sabian last week.\u00a0 You might remember it being dubbed as Dustin&#8217;s potential retirement match.\u00a0 Interestingly, this match has no such retirement label attached.\u00a0 Does this mean Dustin is sure to lose and then carry on working? Probably.\u00a0 Regardless, it is far too soon for Lance Archer to be taking losses.\u00a0 In fact, he is probably the favorite for the whole tournament.\u00a0 Sorry Dustin, but it is looking like a certain defeat here.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>TNT Championship Tournament Semi-Final: Cody vs Darby Allin<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-67575\" src=\"https:\/\/lastwordonprowrestling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2020\/04\/Cody-vs-Darby-Allin-e1588010291467.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\"><\/p>\n<p>The billed main event of the evening features what should be a highly entertaining match.\u00a0 Whereas <strong>Darby Allin<\/strong> obviously wrestled prior to joining AEW, he is without a doubt one of their biggest break out stars.\u00a0 Alongside the similarly young and talented <strong>Sammy Guevara<\/strong>, Allin has established himself as a true prospect.\u00a0 In Cody, he faces the mammoth task of defeating one of the faces of the company.\u00a0 Whereas Cody is not an evil authority figure of the <strong>Triple H<\/strong> and <strong>Mr. McMahon<\/strong> mold, he is still an authority figure.\u00a0 Therefore, the alternatively styled Allin is facing the authority in this match.\u00a0 If he wins, he pulls off an upset and makes AEW history.\u00a0 If he loses, it is back to upper-midcard purgatory for the foreseeable future.\u00a0 Can he pull it off? Will Darby Allin defeat Cody?
