In-Ring: Jon Moxley, Chris Jericho

This week’s “Dynamite” kicks off with highlights from the PPV on Saturday and then we cut to the arena where new AEW World Champion Jon Moxley makes his way to the ring. A massive “Moxley” chant greets him as he grabs the microphone.

Moxley says the AEW World Championship is beautiful because of what it represents. “These letters – A-E-W – represent professional wrestling,” he says. “The sport I love and the sport that I have dedicated my life to. This belt never belonged to Chris Jericho. Hell, it doesn’t even belong to me. This belt belongs to you. Each and every one of you (fans) in this building tonight and every AEW fan watching around the world that helped will this company into existence.”

Moxley says that he will defend that title with his life and that there isn’t a single wrestler in the world that can pry it out of his hands. Moxley says he is open to all challenges and that he knows things aren’t over between him and the Inner Circle. He says they’ve been trying to take him out for months and he has an army coming after him.

“I have a message for the whole Inner Circle,” Moxley continues. “I dare you!” Inner Circle doesn’t make Moxley wait, either, as they walk out onto the stage.

Jericho says he doesn’t need a belt to still be “Le Champion” and the fans chant “yes you do” at him. Jericho says that The Moxley Era has begun and asks the fans if they like that. They affirm that they do and he says it sucks ass.

He says that Moxley’s championship win was based on a lie and calls him a cheater because he spent the better part of three months training for a man with one eye and the fact that Moxley could see out of both is not an action worthy of a champion.

Jericho says that Moxley has turned The Inner Circle from a group of nice guys into a hit squad. He says that The Inner Circle is putting the entire AEW roster on notice right now. “We are going to tear everybody apart,” Jericho says. “We are going to hurt some people and Mox, we’re going to start with you.”

Jericho says that Moxley will not walk out of tonight’s Main Event on his own two feet and he is so sure of that he will take a 60-day leave of absence if Moxley manages to walk out on his own two feet tonight. Moxley says that he is going to do exactly what he did at “Revolution” and this time he’s going to send Jericho packing for 60 days.

In-Ring: Cody, Jake “The Snake” Roberts

Cody says wrestlers work their entire career to get on a PPV career and when you win your match you get a bigger payday. Cody says that his issues with MJF have gone from simply person to now business because he also got screwed out of a payday.

Cody says that this thing with MJF can be over if he comes out to the ring and looks him in the eyes and tells him that he beat Cody fair and square. Jake Roberts comes out instead!

“The Snake” says he hates to spoil the party but he got tired of hearing Cody cry and bitch. “I never cried about a match my entire life,” Roberts says. “Are you going to let that little punk bitch make you cry?” Roberts says he isn’t here to praise Cody, he’s here to slay him.

“The only reason I’m here is I have a client,” he says. “The dark side will be coming to AEW and once our roots have taken hold it will be like a Phoenix rising from the ashes and soaring to the sun.”

Roberts says it has been a 20-year journey for him to get clean and get right and he’s earned it. “If you think for one minute that I’m going to be a nice boy and play right,” he continues. “My man, you have another thing coming.”

Roberts talks about the mind games he played as a wrestler and he says that he will be on the outside of the ring when his client faces Cody, so he has to think about that. Roberts calls Cody “Caesar” and says what a snake wants, he takes. He says he isn’t in AEW to take the whole pie, just Cody’s share. “A wise man once told me never turn your back on someone you respect or you’re afraid,” Roberts says as he turns his back on Cody and walks away.
