And this is not hyperbole. Tony Khan is not only giving us the first 30 minutes commercial free. Not only is he giving us a 10-minute overrun. He is also throwing in The Buy-In pre-show, 30 minutes before it goes live on TBS. And the match he announced for The Buy-In will be for the New Japan STRONG Openweight and ROH World Titles. As Eddie Kingston puts the titles on the line against Minoru Suzuki!
In addition to that, we will also get...
#1 Contenders Match for the TNT Championship Swerve Strickland vs. Bryan Danielson
Adam Copeland vs. Luchasaurus
International Championship Match Rey Fenix (c) vs. Jon Moxley
AEW Women's Championship Match Saraya (c) vs. Hikaru Shida
Powerhouse Hobbs vs. Chris Jericho
"Switchblade" Jay White vs. "Hangman" Adam Page
PLUS, it's been reported that Timeless Toni Storm is ready for her close up.
Annnnnnnnnnd, everybody's favorite scumbag, MJF will be live!
Big, BIG show this week.

I really wish Tony and HBK would just whip it out and slap it down on the table at this point with these competing for best show. Anyway to truly settle this one and for all.
Almost certain Jade does a promo just to throw it in Tony's face she left him.

I just love how the WWE acts like AEW isn’t a threat then when they share a night randomly they march out John Cena and The Undertaker. :lol:
Jade popping up on NXT sounds exactly like something they would do. Gonna be a fun night.
Who do we think is getting the curtain pull for the commercial free opening? Danielson vs Swerve or Hangman vs King Switch?

DB vs Swerve almost certainly as they are both former WWE stars and this is a dick measuring contest night that is making both companies look fucking bush league as shit.
Would think we are dealing with Gabe and Zandig not the leaders of the two largest wrestling companies in the world.

One thing that is bugging me is that they are calling this Title Tuesday and yet only 2 titles are on the line (the 3rd on the pre-show doesn't count).
You have Athena as your ROH Women's Champion and Kris Statlander as your TBS Champion and they are arguably both in the top 10 female wrestlers on the planet right now. Face them off in a showcase non-title match and call it the Battle for Supremacy or something.
The Acclaimed are one of your hottest, most over acts. Not defending the Trios titles is ridiculous. You don't want Max Caster out there throwing shade at NXT on tonight of all nights? Really?
Julia Hart is super over and has a cool entrance. Show the world that you have the new Undertaker on your show and she's a hot blond cheerleader from Michigan (yes I'm serious, I don't know how she is pulling it off). Skye Blue has been great this year and (I say this with complete respect) she's hot as fuck. She was Cora Jade before Cora Jade was Cora Jade. Get those women on your television. Women's title match could easily be a Fatal Fourway.
I know you have to have Chris Jericho on your TV every week, and especially tonight, but his match with Hobbs is going to suck. I'm calling it now. Hobbs isn't good enough to carry a match and Jericho is slow. Why isn't this a tag team match with Jericho and Omega teaming up again and Hobbs teaming with someone from the Don Callis Family? AND WHY ISN'T KENNY OMEGA EVEN WRESTLING TONIGHT? There better be a reason that your best wrestler not named Bryan Danielson isn't wrestling on a night when you are very openly competing with NXT/WWE.
Ok rant over. I'm still excited and think it'll be a good show but sometimes the decisions AEW makes just boggles the mind.

Preshow Eddie Kingston and Minoru Suzuki for both the NJPW Strong and ROH World titles.
Julia is out for the wedding I assume. Reports are she will be gone a few weeks at least.

Is it the wedding or did she actually hurt herself on that moonsault before WrestleDream? Either way, fine I guess. But here’s another example of someone vanishing after a big match. She JUST had a title shot and now she is gone long enough that fans will forget what she has been up to. At least write her off TV somehow. I hate when they do that. Also Tony has lost his mind: x.com/TonyKhan/status/1711772592191799631?s=20

No wedding is friday. That match was her write off. Tony did not really gimmick it up too much since she openly posted about the wedding on social media and likely a ton of pictures will appear this weekend as I imagine a lot of AEW people will be there.
Fans not likely going to forget her either and Tony and Kenny put her over big time in the scrum. Believed she will return with a massive push due to the quality of her last string of matches and how over she was getting.

AEW could have probably did TNT on Thursday this week instead to avoid this.

Tony been pissy that NXT is doing his commercial free stuff and packing the card. Then it was rumored that WWE said that AEW was getting deluded into thinking they were an industry leader because their beat their third tier show, Tony posted the asshole pic.
He has been in a mood for the last two days over this. Think he is pissed that WWE does not plan to let him beat them in ratings easily anymore when they run against each other. Tony seemed to love claiming he was beating WWE, and WWE seems to be sick of his bullshit claiming AEW are beating them, when he simply beats their training fed.
So WWE is calling his bluff, plans to show against a real WWE card, AEW is second tier, and Tony is having a temper tantrum. This is despite most AEW fans knowing businesswise, this is a second fed. AEW fans like the wrestling more, but no one is deluded enough to think any star in AEW is on the level of Cena or the Rock.

Going to watch the other show since my fav girl is wrestling(Lord I would love if Jericho's segment got smashed up against it! :lol:) but please someone tag me when Tony Khan does his warcry pre-show plea to the audience. That's what I actually am looking forward to.

That doesn’t answer my question. Since nobody answered your question: After AEW announced that Dynamite would be airing on Tuesday this week, WWE announced that Cody Rhodes, John Cena & The Undertaker would all be appearing on NXT. They stacked the show with special attractions and legends to try and squash AEW's ratings since they would be going head-to-head with NXT. In response, Tony Khan took to twitter and started posting nonsense and may have rewrote whatever he had planned for Dynamite in order to stack the card. That is speculation because they hadn't announced many matches for tonight like they normally do but it certainly looked like Tony decided to respond to the WWE's announcements and try to pull out all the stops tonight (see: adding a Buy-In episode before the show, first 30 minutes commercial free, asking for a 10 minute run over, etc).

They have been advertising Jon Moxley vs Rey Fenix for a week. WTF? They announced that and promoted it for a week without Mox being cleared?
Either this was some carny shit to advertise Mox or his concussion is way worse than they thought.

Someone on wreddit joked that NXT would open with Cody Rhodes and The Undertaker squaring off as a weird crossover promo and it looks like that is actually what they are doing. :lol:
Danielson vs Swerve to open. Definitely the right call. This match is gonna fuck.
