Updated AEW Continental Classic Standings & Results
Wednesday’s AEW Dynamite show featured three more group stage matches for AEW’s ongoing Continental Classic tournament, all for the Gold League.
The first Gold League match was Jon Moxley defeating Jay Lethal.
The finish to this match involved Lethal attempting a Lethal Injection only for Moxley to collapse to the ground causing Lethal to stop and attempted another Lethal Injection only for Moxley to reveal it was just a ruse by him and hit a Paradigm Shift. Moxley then hit a King Kong Lariat and followed it with a piledriver for a nearfall. After Lethal kicked out of the pin, Moxley quickly applied a rear naked choke and hooked in a grapevine for the submission victory to give him 3 points.
Mox somehow overcame the pain and got the win! He is now the #AEWContintentalClassic Gold League Points Leader!#AEWContinentalClassic: GOLD LEAGUE

The third Gold League match was Swerve Strickland defeating Jay White.

Strickland grabbed White back up only for White to hit a flash Bladerunner to Strickland, who rolled out of the ring to avoid the pinfall. After some more action, White hit a Sleeper Suplex to Strickland but before he could try to pin Strickland or do another move, Strickland rolled up White for the pinfall victory to earn himself 3 points and be tied up with Moxley in first place in the Gold League.
Swerve got the win out of nowhere in a fantastic match between two of the best!

New Matches Announced for December 6th Dynamite Show
Wednesday’s Dynamite show also featured two new matches officially announced for next week’s Dynamite show on December 6th in Montreal, Canada.
The first new match announced is a tag team match of MJF & Samoa Joe vs. AEW Devil mystery team.
This match was setup following an in-ring segment involving MJF, Samoa Joe, and the AEW Devil’s mystery masked men. Following MJF giving a promo talking about his upcoming match against Joe, the lights went out and started to flicker. During this time, several mystery masked men ran into teh ring and started attacking MJF, who were revealed to be the AEW Devil’s goons when the lights came back on. Joe ran out to save MJF and chased away the mystery men. A video then played on the big screen featuring a message from the AEW Devil taunting MJF and issuing a challange for a tag team match next week against a mystery team from his side. MJF gave a heated response accepting the challenge while Joe looked a bit puzzled since MJF didn’t ask him first if he wanted to be involved.

The second new match announced is a TNT Championship match of Adam Copeland vs. Christian Cage (c).
This match was initially setup during last week’s show following Copeland attacking Killswitch and injuring him. In a follow-up segment, Copeland issued a challenge to Cage for his belt at the December 6th Dynamite show in Montreal.
During tonight’s show, Cage gave an in-ring promo surrounded by security and called out for Copeland to join him in the ring. After a lengthy delay, Copeland came out and told Cage to get rid of the security if he wanted to have a talk, which Cage did. Cage then proceeded to try to weasel his way out of the match by invoking Copeland’s deceased parents and them being like brothers while growing up. Cage also stated that Copeland’s late mother would have wanted them to reunite one more time as a team and forget about their TNT title match. Copeland responded by kicking Cage in the family jewels and promised to take the TNT title from Cage next week. Before Copeland left he told Cage to “Go F**k Yourself” in reference to Cage’s earlier rejection of Copeland wanting to reunite as a tag team.
"Oh, and I almost forgot…" – Adam Copeland
