AEW Dynamite Results – December 18, 2019
As we start this week’s AEW Dynamite, we have plenty of questions. How will Jungle Boy do against Chris Jericho in a non-title match? Will Adam Page continue with his storyline that he’s no longer one of “The Elite”? Will Cody and Darby Allen work well as a team? Can Cory!! Keep up with the action or will he fall woefully behind again?
We’re in Corpus Christie Texas at the American Bank Center for tonight’s “season ending” episode of AEW, as they are taking next week off, I guess. Our announcers are Jim Ross, Excalibur and Tony Schiavone and as always, we are right into the action with everyone in the ring already:
