AEW Dynamite 8/21/24
From the Utilita Arena Cardiff in Cardiff, Wales, UK! Tony Schiavone is in the ring and we’re having ourselves a contract signing.
Britt Baker is out first, and here comes Mercedes Mone with Kamille. Say hello to your CEO, Cardiff. Mone says that Baker is the past and she will forever be the future. Baker reminds Mone of her role at All In last year. Mone says she inspired Baker to become a wrestler but she had to get a little degree to fall back on, so is Baker really “all in”? Mone says she doesn’t have the guts to go all in, and she will never beat her.
The guts? Baker says she had the guts, the hard, and the balls, and she never had a plan B… she had two plan bs. Baker says Mone was one of four, but Baker is one of one and she’s the baddest bitch on the block. Baker says the person that Mone used to be is gone, and she cares more about money than the product, and the legacy that inspired future stars like Britt Baker. Baker doesn’t know where that girl went… but Baker hopes she finds her fast. Baker wants to beat that version of Mone, not the one we see now. Baker says she’s going to follow the rules they agreed to, but this other bitch is getting on her nerves! Baker cracks Kamille in the head with the mic and dives off the table on both women.
The Learning Tree are in the back with Renee. Jericho wants to know what right Tommy Billington has to call himself the Dynamite Kid? Are you as good as the original? Jericho doesn’t think so, and he hopes Hook is watching.
Match #1. Chris Jericho w/ Bryan Keith & Big Bill vs. Tommy Billington
Billington comes out to The British Bulldogs music and here we go. Arm drags by Billington to start. Crowd is super lively tonight, by the way. Billington breaks a wrist lock by going over the top and tries a few shoulder blocks to no avail, until the third one, which drops Jericho. Body slam by Billington and a shotgun dropkick off the top. Both guys roll to the outside and Jericho distracts the referee, allowing Bill to post Billington as we go to PIP. Jericho in control now throughout the commercial. Double crossbody in the middle of the ring and both guys are down. Clotheslines by Billington and a scoop slam. Billington misses a dropkick and Jericho takes advantage with a Lionsault. Two count. German suplex by Jericho and now the Walls of Jericho are locked in. Snap suplex by Billington and a tombstone piledriver! Billington heads up top for the headbutt but changes course and takes out Bryan Keith are ringside. Billington sidesteps Big Bill and goes back up top. Jericho meets Billington in mid-air with a Code Breaker! One, two, three.
Winner: Chris Jericho
Rating: **1/2. Technically sound match here that didn’t overstay it’s welcome. Billington got a chance to showcase some of what he can do, but Jericho wasn’t in much trouble here and he shouldn’t have been.
Jericho takes the mic. Hook is a stupid bastard, and Jericho hopes he’s watching.
Here’s Hook. Both guys stand face-to-face and Big Bill blasts Jericho from behind. Huge chokeslam by Bill.
