New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE

The first match of the night saw Cody taking on Sammy Guevara in singles action. This was arguably the biggest match of Guevara's career and he started off strong despite a slight stumble right out of the gate. Guevara took control of the match dumping Cody out of the ring early before taking him down with a dropkick soon after.

Cody soon control of match and did his best to slow Guevara down. The 'best ever' replied by slapping Cody across the face, something he didn't take kindly to. Cody had a Figure-4-Leglock locked in after this but Guevara managed to reach the ropes before taking too much damage. Cody didn't relent, and continued chopping Guevara in the corner before hitting a delayed reverse vertical suplex.

Guevara was grounded for the first time in the match as Cody did push-ups to taunt the youngster. Cody capitalized by following up with a spingboard stunner. Sammy replied with a cutter off his own of the springboard for a two-count. Just as it looked like Guevara was picking up some momentum, Cody booted him off the apron and onto the floor.

We had Brandi talking trash to Sammy at ringside at this point. As Cody launched himself into the air at Guevara, he pulled Brandi into the way sending Cody crashing into his wife. He further capitalized by pushing Cody into the ringpost before rolling him into the ring.

With Sammy hung up on the middle rope, Brandy slapped him across the face before Cody hit him with a Diaster Kick. The ensuing cover only brought about a 2-count. Cody headed to the top after this but Sammy joined him there with a massive leap, followed by a top rope Spanish Fly for a nearfall. Guevara looked to follow up with a Shooting Star Press but Cody got the knees up and rolled the youngster up for the win. A great match to start off AEW Dynamite.

As Cody and Sammy Guevara shook hands in the ring after the match, Chris Jericho attacked Cody from behind and hit him with a Codebreaker. Jericho then hit Cody with the AEW World tite belt before hitting a powerbomb across two chairs.

Brandon Cutler made his singles debut in AEW next as he faced the "salt of the earth" MJF. MJF tore into Cutler in his pre-match promo, calling him a loser and someone who didn't belong in the ring.

MJF toyed with Cutler early on but Cutler soon slapped him across the face before rolling MJF up for a nearfall. MJF went to work on Cutler's shoulder right away, throwing him shoulder-first into the ring post.

Cutler tossed MJF out of the ring at this point and followed it up with a suicide dive through the ropes. Cutler continued unloading on MJF before dragging him back inside the ring. Cutler headed to the top rope but ended up slipping.

MJF took full advantage of this and struck Cutler across the face with a forearm. He then took Cutler down and wrenched his arm, forcing him to tapout and submit. Even after Cutler had tapped out, MJF rubbed salt into his wounds by refusing to let go of the submission hold.

Follwing his big win on Dynamite, the future looks bright for the 'fastest rising star in professional wrestling'.

PAC vs Hangman Page

Another big night for PAC
Another big night for PAC

There's no love lost between these two men and that was evident from the moment the bell rang at AEW Dynamite. Both men threw their best stikes at each other early. They boot hit each other with a big boot before Page took PAC down with his patented spinning clotheslines.

PAC was forced to roll him out of the ring and Page followed him outside, sending him crashing into the barricade repeatedly. Back inside the ring, Page followed up with a Fallaway Slam followed by a running moonsault.

The action soon spilled back out to ringside as PAC hit a springboard hurracarana to Page. PAC reacted by rolling Page back inside the ring and getting on the apron and hitting a springboard 450. PAC headed to the top rope but Page had this scouted and rolled away to the opposite corner.

Page took back control of this match at this point, using his size and strength advantage well. PAC showed a burst of energy out of nowhere and set Page shoulder-first into the ring post. Now it was PAC's time to send Page crashing into the barricade at ringside.

Lacksadiasical work from PAC led to another opening for Page. He hit PAC with a burst of offense including a powerbomb for a nearfall. PAC rolled out to ringside but Page headed to the top rope and hit a moonsault out to ringside.

Back in the ring, Page went for the Deadeye and PAC caught him with a low blow. This was the opening PAC needed. He hit Page with the Black Arrow before winning the match with The Brutalizer.

Riho peppered Nyla Rose with right hands when the bell rang but they didn't seem to have much effect. Riho followed it with a dropkick and a head scissors but Rose soon took her down with a shoulder tackle.

Riho tried to reply with boots to the kidney area but once again they didn't really have any effect as Nyla Rose powered out and locked in an STF. Riho somehow dragged herself to the bottom rope but damage had been done regardless. Riho replied with a couple of running knee strikes and she hit the mark this time, forcing Nyla Rose to roll out of the ring.

Riho headed to the top rope and launched herself at Nyla Rose who was at ringside. Nyla Rose caught Riho in midair and hit a backbreaker. She then stacked some chairs at ringside and laid Riho on them. Rose headed to the apron and went for a Cannonball. However, Riho moved out of the way as Rose crashed and burned.

Back in the ring, Riho looked in a crossface but Rose broke out pretty easily and looked for respite in the corner. Riho hit another running knee strike but Rose couldn't be kept down. Rose hit a Samoan Drop to take control of the match as the fans in the arena chanted for Riho.

Nyla Rose then hung Riho up on the top rope before heading to the top rope and hitting a knee strike. Riho kicked out at the last second. Rose knocked Riho back down again with a right hand before almost kicking her head off with a big boot. Out of nowhere, Riho rolled Nyla Rose up and almost got the 3-count.

Rose replied with a Death Valley Driver but Riho kicked out again and the fans were fully behind the underdog now. Riho followed up with a knee strike to the back of Nyla Rose's head followed by the double knees to win the match and become the first-ever AEW Women's Champion!
