AEW Dynamite Results: Top star destroyed, Former Champion replaces Jon Moxley

Orange Cassidy vs Miro (AEW World Title Eliminator tournament semi-final)

With Jon Moxley out of action, former AEW TNT Champion Miro faced Orange Cassidy to see who would face Bryan Danielson in the final of the World Title Eliminator Tournament. Bryan Danielson was present on commentary duty during this match.

Orange Cassidy put his hands in his pockets early and hit Miro with light kicks. The Bulgarian star was not a fan of this and followed Orange Cassidy out to the floor. Orange ran back into the ring and went for a suicide dive but Miro caught him and hit a vicious Suplex.

Orange Cassidy fought back with a Tornado DDT, getting a two-count from it. He went to finish off Miro with the Orange Punch but the former TNT Champion saw it coming and rolled out of the ring.

Miro rested on the timekeeper's table as Orange Cassidy launched himself out of the ring, with both men crashing through the table. They barely beat the 10-count before Orange Cassidy hit the Beach Break. Miro kicked out at the last second before locking in the Game Over and forcing Cassidy to tap out.

Result: Miro def. Orange Cassidy

Grade: B+

Bryan Danielson walked down to the ring after the match and offered Miro a handshake. The Bulgarian refused it and walked away.
