AEW Dynamite 1 October 2020 All Segments Updates
1. Cody Rhodes comes out to the ring. Dasha was also in the ring with him. She asks him how he’s feeling. Cody says Al Snow told him “You’ll always wrestle hurt, never wrestle injured.” Cody questions what if it’s internal within the person? Cody talked about the comradery about shaking hands between wrestling and then he got the call from Hollywood. He says the future stands with AEW’s current title holders. Not him. He states even Brodie Lee. Dasha asks if he accepts Lee’s challenge of a dog collar match. Cody says no he doesn’t then begins to walk off. He turns around and says “No, as in no regrets” followed by a fiery statement that he accepts. Next week. Brodie Lee comes out and so does the Dark Order and so does the locker room. Brandi dives onto top of a crew and Anna Jay and her trade shots. Total chaos.
2. Tony Schiavone tracks down FTR backstage. Cash says they did Best Friends a favor by not giving them a match. They’re backyard specialists. He’s more intrigued by facing SCU. Tony asks about The Young Bucks and Dax says they keep blowing opportunities so they don’t deserve it. Suddenly, Tony Schiavone gets super kicked by Matt Jackson and FTR tell Matt to go after them.
3. Scorpio Sky and Kaz were all game for their match and they guarantee a victory. As they walk to the curtain, there’s Shawn Spears. He wishes them good luck.
4. An eight-man tournament for the number one contendership AEW World Title announced for Full Gear. The three competitors announced were: Rey Fenix, Jungle Boy and Kenny Omega. This flusters Hangman on commentary who promptly exits.
5. Kip and Miro were bonding over their bachelor party plans. Some record breaker (Billy Mitchell? Is he the Donkey Kong guy?) tries to get in on the plans.
6. Backstage, MJF barges into Inner Circle’s dressing room and presents a bunch of jackets to the gang. He doesn’t have one for Sammy Guevara. Sammy doesn’t care and wonders what he’s doing here. Chris appreciates the gifts and asks him again if he wants to join the Inner Circle. Max asks him once more if he wants him to join The Inner Circle. They go back and forth over this before MJF makes his leave with Wardlow. He exits and as he does, Sammy’s about to say “What a loser” before Jericho stops him and says “maybe he’s not” as he drinks a bit of the bubbly.
7. Eddie Kingston gets in the ring with Rey Fenix, Penta and Bryce Remsburg. Eddie says one thing he didn’t do in his title shot last week was submit. He asks Bryce what gave him the balls to ring that bell. Bryce says they go 18 years back and he was unresponsive. It’s his job to protect him from himself. Eddie is all ready to sic The Lucha Brothers on him but out comes Moxley with a barbed wire bat. Eddie tells them to cut the World Champ’s music. He reveals that he’s fighting The Butcher tonight who is right behind Moxley.
