AEW DYNAMITE: TITLE TUESDAY RESULTS – OCTOBER 8, 2024
Jon Moxley Is Ready To Take Out Bryan Danielson On Saturday
This week’s show kicks off with a cold open featuring Jon Moxley talking into the camera, much like last week, about how he has no choice but to be the one to take out Bryan Danielson. He says “The American Dragon” is blood no one wants on their hands, and even though Danielson has been on a kamikaze mission for a while now, no one in AEW has the stomach to do what needs to be done.
Except Mox. He says this is reality and you don’t get to pick the day you go out. He says he only hopes one day Bryan understands. It’s gotta be this way. It’s got to. He doesn’t have time to worry about that right now. The stakes are too high.
Bryan Danielson Responds To Claudio Castagnoli
We then shoot to the digital exclusive promo AEW released before tonight’s show on social media, with Bryan Danielson reacting to Claudio Castagnoli saying in a big media interview that tonight is going to be Danielson’s final match ever on Dynamite.
This is because he promised to retire when he loses the title, and that is happening this Saturday at Wrestle Dream. Danielson says it won’t be his last Dynamite and vows to kick Castagnoli’s ass in their tag-team match tonight in Spokane, WA.
Darby Allin, Brody King Go Face-To-Face Before Wrestle Dream
We shoot inside the Spokane Arena in Spokane, WA. for the first time and Darby Allin’s theme hits. He power walks down to the ring and yes, he is still wearing his fluffy-ass(ed), pink-ass jacket. He tells Brody King to get his ass down here for their scheduled face-to-face segment.
The House of Black member joins him in the ring. Darby recalls staying in crackhead motels before their AEW days. He says King was nervous because he had a kid on the way. He talks about King being in ROH at the time, before Tony Khan owned it. He says he got signed by AEW and when King lost his job and Khan bought ROH, it was Darby who had Khan hire King in AEW.
Darby says King bought a house because of his job in AEW, and it supports his two kids. The problem is, he wants what Darby’s got, and Darby is the face of AEW. King cuts him off and tells him he’s got everything he wants. The difference is, he doesn’t take it for granted. He says we all know Darby has a death wish. He asks what happens when he dies climbing Mount Everest.
He says AEW will be left without a face. He says he needs someone to save him from himself. Didn’t they just do this with Mox’s kamikaze mission promo? Darby drops down in the corner and dares King to do it then. He says put me out of my misery. “OOf! Oof! OOf! Oof!” King finally decks Darby, but when he goes to choke him and hang him over the ropes, Darby pulls a big rock out and cracks King in the mouth with it. Security hits the ring as King’s mouth is pouring blood.
Jake Roberts, Don Callis Trade Talent
Backstage, Renee Paquette is with Jake “The Snake” Roberts and Don Callis. Callis announces the first-ever manager to manager talent exchange in AEW. “The Murderhawk Monster” Lance Archer is now with The Don Callis Family. They leave together. Paquette asks Jake who he got out of the trade. He asks if she likes surprises. She does. He does too. We’ll find out soon enough. We head to a commercial break.
Hologram vs. Komander
When we return, Renee Paquette is in the parking lot with Daniel Garcia. She asks him about where he’s been and the rumors about what is going on. He says he owes it to the people to tell them directly himself.
Back inside the arena, Jeff Jarrett is shown on commentary alongside Tony Schiavone and Excalibur, filling in for Taz, as we get ready for our first match of the evening. Hologram makes his way out to the ring, followed by Komander, and then the bell sounds for this first-time-ever matchup of masked stars.
After some brief back-and-forth action, we see Hologram start to pull ahead on offense at ringside. As the action resumes inside the squared circle, we shift gears and head into a mid-match commercial break as this showdown of masked high-flyers continues.
When we return from the break, we see some more back-and-forth action culminating with Hologram’s airplane spin finisher to pick up the victory and improve his undefeated win-streak in AEW to 18-0. After the match, Jake “The Snake” Roberts comes out to the top of the stage. He watches as RUSH, Dralistico and The Beast Mortos attacking Komander and Hologram from behind.

The commentators mention how it was supposed to be Nightingale vs. Britt Baker until Baker was forced to miss the show due to illness.
The bell sounds and we see some back-and-forth action as May drones on while chatting with Schiavone, Jarrett and Excalibur on commentary. Rose hits a big high spot to take out all three women on the floor as we shift gears and head into a mid-match commercial break.

It’s main event time!
But first, we shoot to a message from “The Scapegoat” Jack Perry in a stairway. He talks about Daniel Garcia’s return and then mentions how Katsuyori Shibata talks through a phone app but he wants to have a conversation with him. He vows to beat him in their title match at Wrestle Dream.
Back inside the arena, Europe’s “The Final Countdown” plays as AEW World Champion Bryan Danielson emerges and heads to the ring accompanied by Wheeler Yuta, as Excalibur questions on commentary if this is the last time we’ll see “The American Dragon” in action on an episode of Dynamite.
Two-thirds of the AEW Trios Champions, “The Bastard” PAC and Claudio Castagnoli, make their way out to square off against the third member of the Trios champs, Yuta, and his partner Danielson in our tag-team main event on tonight’s special Title Tuesday episode of Dynamite.
The bell sounds and we’re officially off-and-running with this one. Danielson, who has his shoulders and neck taped up, kicks things off with PAC. Fans chant “Let’s go Bryan!” as he gets off to a fast start, hitting a big dive onto Castagnoli on the floor. Yuta hits a top-rope splash to the floor as well.
As things continue, we see PAC and Castagnoli start to shift the offensive momentum in their favor. PAC starts to settle into a comfortable offensive lead as the legal man in the ring working over Yuta, as we head into our final commercial break of the evening.
When we return, we see Yuta trying to fight back into competitive form, only for PAC and Castagnoli to keep him restrained on their end of the ring, while utilizing frequent tags to keep a fresh man on him at all times. Danielson isn’t on the apron for his team, as he’s still down on the floor.
Yuta hits a big kick that buys him much-needed time. Yuta crawls to his corner, but nobody is home. PAC makes the tag to Castagnoli, who goes to work on Yuta as Danielson is shown crawling up the steps trying to recover. Yuta starts to fight for a comeback again.
Danielson finally gets the much-needed tag. As soon as he enters the ring, he starts blasting any-and-everything that moves with kicks as fans chant “Yes! Yes! Yes” He holds onto Claudio and stomps him all over until PAC clobbers Danielson from behind. Danielson gets PAC down and starts stomping away at him now.
Danielson has Castagnoli and PAC both down. He backs into the corner of the ring and crouches down as fans chant and he waits for one of them to get up to finish them off. He stops and locks eyes with someone off-camera at ringside. The camera pans over and shows Jon Moxley and Marina Shafir at ringside. PAC takes Danielson down and gets the hammer for the ring bell as Shafir ties up the referee.
Yuta takes it from PAC. Danielson gets up and takes PAC down into the LeBell Lock for the win. As soon as the match ends, Danielson dives through the ropes and splashes onto Mox on the floor. The two brawl up the ramp as Yuta is shown arguing with the rest of his AEW Trios Champions partners Castagnoli and PAC.
Shafir starts beating up Yuta at ringside as cameras catch up with Danielson and Mox wildly brawling backstage at the Spokane Arena. Back in the ring, we see Shafir, Castagnoli and PAC all beating down a defenseless Yuta in the ring. They blast him with a hammer over and over again.
Danielson returns to the ring and helps Yuta out, clearing the ring of Castagnoli and PAC and Shafir and standing tall, leading fans in “Yes!” chants as Yuta recovers in the background and Europe’s “The Final Countdown” plays again. Excalibur promotes AEW Wrestle Dream 2024 as the special “Title Tuesday” episode of AEW Dynamite goes off the air on that note. Thanks for joining us!
