It's All About Australia: Swerve and Kenny Omega go at it, the Death Riders are in limbo, and a TNT Championship match for the ages

This week, we break down a stacked episode of Dynamite that featured multiple match-of-the-night contenders, major title implications, and some very questionable creative decisions.

We dive deep into:

• Swerve Strickland vs. Kenny Omega opening the show with chaos and violence
• A phenomenal trios match featuring Claudio, Mox, Takeshita, and company
• Kyle Fletcher vs. Tommaso Ciampa for the TNT Championship — a brutal, must-see fight
• What Fletcher’s win means heading into Grand Slam: Australia
• The return of Private Party and an excellent triple-threat tag team match
• Confusion, frustration, and dwindling interest in the hair vs. hair storyline
• Roddy Strong walking out, Darby Allin reappearing, and where any of this is actually going
• Plus: Don Callis Quote of the Night and another all-timer from “Things My Wife Said While Watching Wrestling”

We debate what’s working, what’s not, and what AEW needs to tighten up as they build toward Australia and Revolution.

If you missed this episode of Dynamite — or just want someone to yell about it with — we’ve got you covered.
