CM Punk vs Lee Moriarty on AEW Dynamite

MJF came out to do commentary on AEW Dynamite for this match before the bell rang. He spent most of the time running CM Punk down.

Punk got a headlock early on before Lee Moriarty hit back with a lateral press and transitioned it into an armbar. The Straight Edge Superstar hit back with shoulder charges in the corner and followed it up with a leg lariat.

Punk was in control of the match at this stage, whipping Lee into the corner. He went to follow up with a Running Knee Strike but ended up hitting the turnbuckle. Moriarty quickly took advantage and locked in a modified crossface. Punk looked like he was in deep trouble but managed to crawl over and put his foot on the rope.

Moriarty headed to the top rope but CM Punk caught him with a palm strike. Lee hit back with a lariat followed by a boot to the head for a nearfall.

Moriarty went to hit a suplex but CM Punk reversed it into the GTS. Punk then pinned Lee Moriarty for the win.

Result: CM Punk def. Lee Moriarty

Grade: B

MJF took the mic after the match and berated Punk for calling himself the 'Best In The World' when he struggled to beat QT Marshall and Lee Moriarty.

Punk got a mic and told MJF to shut up and come down to the ring. The Salt Of The Earth refused the offer and promised to show him what a real professional looked like when he wins the Dynamite Diamond Batte Royal next week. MJF sank so low as to then take shots at CM Punk's beloved dog Larry.
