Tom abandoned Tim for his family (the nerve!), but that didn't stop AEW Dynamite from delivering an absolutely chaotic, story-packed episode from the legendary 2300 Arena in Philly. With Tim flying solo, he needed a wild show to break down, and Tony Khan certainly delivered.
We had new roles defined, brutal promos cut, and one of the most shocking turns in recent memory to close out the night. If you missed the livestream, you can listen to the full, unfiltered audio breakdown right here.
This Week's Rundown:
It was a night of big moves, both in and out of the ring. Here are the key moments Timhad to break down:
Bryan Danielson is ALL ELITE (on commentary): The American Dragon has a permanent seat at the commentary table! Tim discusses why this is a genius move for AEW's storytelling and what it means for the broadcast booth going forward.
Hangman Page's "Cowboy Sh*t" Warning: After a hard-hitting match with Josh Alexander, Hangman Page had some chilling words for his All Out opponent, Kyle Fletcher. Tim dives into the deeper meaning behind "you're not ready" and the Philly crowd's hilarious obsession with Fletcher's socks.
The Devil's Wedding Vows: Forget "'til death do us part," MJF is now married to VENGEANCE. His unhinged, intense promo on Mark Briscoe was a masterclass in menace and a clear sign that the real "Salt of the Earth" is back.
The Women's Division Gets Hardcore: A chaotic tag match set the stage for a wild four-way AEW Women's World Championship match at All Out. The table is set for a classic.
Gentlemen's Agreement? Not a Chance: Tim breaks down the absolute mayhem that erupted after the Ricochet vs. Shelton Benjamin match, proving that faction warfare is about to boil over in a big way.
HOOK's Next Move: "The Cold-Hearted Handsome Devil" sent a cryptic message about his future. Is he still flying solo, or is he looking for a partner?
The SHOCKING Main Event Betrayal: And finally, the moment everyone is talking about. The 10-Man Tag was pure chaos, but the real story was the aftermath. Daniel Garcia has officially sold his soul and joined the Blackpool Combat Club, betraying Darby Allin in the process. Tim breaks down the turn, the motives, and what this means for the future of the BCC.
