During the April 9 edition of AEW Dynamite, Death Riders members Claudio Castagnoli and Wheeler Yuta were set to battle The Opps' Samoa Joe and HOOK in the main event of the night.

The match was an explosive affair that had Baltimore fans on their feet. Both teams exchanged blows and delivered powerful moves to gain supremacy over the other. Moreover, the finish was also dramatic as HOOK and Samoa Joe locked in the sleeper hold on Yuta and Castagnoli, inside and outside the ring, respectively.

The Death Riders duo tapped out simultaneously, giving The Opps a hard-fought victory. However, their celebrations were cut short as the other Death Rider members, Marina Shafir and Jon Moxley, arrived, leading to Opps members falling to the numbers game. The Death Riders delivered a beatdown on Samoa Joe, HOOK, and Katsuyori Shibata and left the ringside area.

However, Samoa Joe did not take it too kindly and instead issued a warning to Jon Moxley's faction. The former WWE United States Champion made it clear that The Opps were coming for revenge and the AEW Trios World Championship held by the Death Riders.
