AEW Dynamite delivered a frustrating follow-up to Revolution with little to no meaningful storyline progression. Will Ospreay returned after neck surgery but was immediately placed in a match with Blake Christian, offering no major direction coming out of the pay-per-view.

The main event featured Darby Allin vs Gabe Kidd in an unsanctioned Coffin Match that quickly spiraled into chaos, including a car crash, chloroform, a straitjacket, and excessive blood in what will go down as one of the most controversial and poorly received matches of the year.

Elsewhere, Swerve Strickland and Kenny Omega set the stage for their rematch next week on Dynamite, with major stakes proposed as Omega’s EVP position and Swerve’s AEW World Championship #1 contendership could both be on the line.
