The Beast Mortos and LFI jump FTR after the match, but Dax and Cash are saved by the Outrunners! The FT Runners run the table tonight in a fantastic pair of tag bouts!

Doesn't matter. After a grueling nearly 20-minute saga, FTR manage to catch Dralistico with the Shatter Machine!!

FTR defeat LFI via pinfall. Grade: A-

A superplex drops Dralistico, but Dax's damaged shoulder prevents him from getting the pin. LFI double-team Dax and set him up in the corner for the Horns, but Cash takes Rush out. Dax plants Dralistico with the slingshot powerbomb for a pinfall, only for Rush to...break it up to try and pin Dax?

...who was legal for LFI there?

Dralistico sends Cash to the floor and locks a fresh Dax into an armbar!! Rush prevents Cash from breaking it up but is launched into the steps just as Dax gets to the ropes.

Cash and Dralistico battle around the ring post before Dralistico hits a phenomenal springboard crucifix bomb!! Unfortunately for him, Dax rolls out of his reach and prevents the pinfall.

After suffering for minutes, Dax manages to get away from Rush's brutality to tag in Cash. He's a one-man wrecking crew, sending Rush to the floor and planting Dralistico with a counter powerslam!

Rush manages to turn things in their favor just as we cut to break, sending Dax shoulder-first into the ring post.

Rush hammers Cash Wheeler with some nasty strikes that sends him falling into the bottom turnbuckle. After he shakes the cobwebs from his noggin, Cash rocks Rush with some strong ones of his own, laying him out with a nice clothesline. Dralistico runs in, leading to Dax and Cash each hitting a triple German on Rush and Dralistico.

Dax Harwood kicks things off with Dralistico. Dax the Ax batters Dralistico with a series of chops before tagging Cash in for a delayed assisted gordbuster. Dralistico crawls over to Rush, looking to be saved by his leader.

It's time for your maiiiiiin event!! FTR takes on La Faccion Ingobernables' Rush and Dralistico!

Viva Van was this close to picking up a massive W

We get a preview for the next Dynamite, including a hype video for Adam Cole and Buddy Matthews. Fright Night Dynamite is set to be a real banger of an episode.

Mariah May will defend the AEW Women's Title against Anna next week. According to Anna Jay it's sink or swim, but Mariah promises that she will drown.

A backstabber drops Van. Both women take a while to get to their feet, but Van is first up. She hits a springboard crossbody for another close call. Jay seems to be on the verge of defeat.

Van has Jay up on her shoulders for an electric chair. Jay manages to slide down her back and catch her with the Widow's Peak!!

Anna Jay defeats Viva Van via pinfall. Grade: C-

Van rocks Jay with a forward rolling up-kick and a spinning back fist!! 1-2-no!! Jay just barely kicks out.

Van finally gets some offense in, bouncing off the ropes to build up speed before rocking Jay with a hellacious heel kick of her own. Jay nearly gets launched out of the ring by sheer force.

Jay takes Van over with a snap Northern Lights suplex for an early two-count. A rolling heel kick in the corner earns Jay another close one, but Van isn't done yet.

We've got another exciting women's match-up next. It's Anna Jay versus Viva Van, who is one of the top women in NJPW right now. We could easily see a loss for Jay here.

How can this man still do stuff like this??

Ricochet is caught with a poison rana and a windmill kick, but Rush can't secure the W. He grabs a chair only for Ricochet to send it into his face with a basement dropkick. The Hidden Blade knocks Rush out cold.

Ricochet defeats Lio Rush via pinfall. Grade: A-

Rush avoids an axe kick and rocks Ricochet with a clothesline. Ricochet manages to counter his springboard cutter with a Blue Thunder Bomb! Unfortunately, like most matches, the BTB doesn't get the win. A bout as useful as a back rake.

Back from the break, both men have found themselves on the top rope. Rush pelts Ricochet with another quick combination, and hits a flying bulldog off the top that ends up hanging his opponent neck first across the rope!! The Frog Splash fails to connect, though, and Ricochet hits a Stormbreaker and a Shooting Star Press for a close two-count.

The ref pauses action to check on Lio Rush

Rush is in a bad way after a disastrous spot in the corner. The ref stops the match briefly to make sure he's not concussed. Ricochet goes to check on him and is sent to the floor! Rush was just playing possum! A suicide dive follows, and Ricochet is in danger!!

Lio Rush outrushes Ricochet early and pelts his opponent with a series of stiff strikes. A big slap knocks the taste out of his mouth, firing up the once-in-a-lifetime talent. Ricochet responds by using the ropes as a slingshot and rocking Lio with a discus boot.

Ricochet is out next, as the One and Only goes face-to-face with the Man of the Hour. This is going to be a barn burner!!

Jake Roberts is backstage La Faccion Ingobernable and promises that they're going to break and snap the bones of anyone who stands in their way as they look for tag team supremacy. FTR might be in trouble tonight...

When Nigel is the voice of reason, there's a problem...

When asked about the attack on Chuck Taylor, a man who trained Yuta, the former ROH Pure Champion nearly spits at Nigel. Yuta says that they've been committing these horrific atrocities on men that they love. So what does that mean for the people that they hate?

After the match, we see footage from Nigel McGuinness's interview with Wheeler Yuta. Nigel says he's putting his personal feelings for Bryan aside. Yuta suffocated him, and that could've left him with serious brain damage. Yuta thinks that he's just jealous of what he did.

Nigel says he only wanted to prove he's better than Bryan. Not leave his wife and kids without a husband and father. Yuta considers it a mercy killing. It's for the greater good.

After sending Madden to the floor, The Outrunners plant Mansoor with the Total Recall for the win!!

The Outrunners defeat MXM Collection via pinfall. Grade: C

Turbo Floyd and Truth Magnum block the double goozle from Madden. No chokeslams here. A double dropkick launches Madden into the ropes for a double scoop slam. They slam Mansoor on Madden, then Magnum on Mansoor. The Youngest Men Alive is on fire!! After dropping Madden onto Mansoor with, as Nigel calls it, the "Greco-Roman 69," they hit the double elbow drop.

Back from the break, Mansoor and Madden have Turbo in a bad way on the wrong side of the ring. Turbo is set up for the elevated Crescent Moon Kick, a sort of Hart Attack combination. Despite nailing it, MXM can't get the win.

Sometimes it's hard to explain wrestling...

The Outrunners stop a run-in from Mansoor, launching him into the waiting arms of his partner on the floor. These guys are HOT tonight!!

MXM and The Outrunners are out next. Madden and Turbo Floyd lock up for a test of strength. The former WWE star brings Floyd down to his knees, but the wily vet is able to turn things around and tag in Truth Magnum!

After the match, Jamie Hayter challenges Penelope Ford to a match on the November 6th edition of Dynamite.

Backstage, FTR and the Outrunners are interviewed ahead of the Outrunners' big match with MXM tonight. FTR will also take on Rush and The Beast Mortos. The FT Runners are set for a big night!

A gutbuster drops Renegade after Penelope avoids a pump handle slam. After that, the Lunar Lock seals the deal, giving Penelope her first win in over two years.

Penelope Ford defeats Robyn Renegade via submission. Grade: D+

Ford is dominating Renegade here. After Renegade kicks out of a pinfall, she nearly sits on her face while jaw-jacking with the ref. Renegade is outclassed here.

Ford drops Renegade with a cutter and takes her to the ropes, choking her out with her legs. The ref's count gets to four before she's forced to break it.
