AEW Dynamite 6/21/23 Results and Review

Another Dynamite comes through from Chicago and the crowd was wild for the opening, and throughout. Let’s see how it all went down and my thoughts on the matter.

The Gunns defeated The Hardys

A fun fast paced tag team match. The Gunns were getting rocked a great deal at one point, and there was a lot of fighting to be had. The Hardys threw down a great deal of offense, and it was a fun time, with the crowd all over it. The end came with Bullet Club Gold interfering and ended up getting beat down by the crew, and after a 3:10 to Yuma, the Hardys were put down. After the match they got beat down until Ricky Starks came threw and he got beat down too. Out came FTR as well and there was a wild brawl. Fun stuff to begin Dynamite.

Mark Briscoe defeated Jeff Jarrett in a concession stand brawl

What a wild match! It started in the concession stands and went down to the ring, and it was a lot of fun. Jarrett can still go! Wow, this was a highlight for me, a great deal of brawling, some good wrestling, and just a fun time with the crowd going absolutely nuts. Jarrett would get his friends to run in but they couldn’t finish off Briscoe as he had his own friends come through and help. Briscoe would get the win, and eventually would roll up Jarrett and what a nice matchup. Great overall fun match, check it out.

Minoru Suzuki and The Jericho Appreciation Society defeated Action Andretti, AR Fox, and Darius Martin

A solid six man match. A lot of back and forth happened here, with every guy getting some time to shine. Suzuki is awesome, and was great to see him in this match. He is just strong and bold, loved it. This was a good overall modern style wrestling match with frenetic pacing toward the end. The Lion Tamer came out at one point, and was just a great thing to see, a great matchup with a lot of fun back and forth, I liked it a lot.

Adam Cole called out MJF and he obliged! He came down to the ring to talk with Cole. They were interrupted and were informed that they would have to team up! They would be a tag team for the upcoming tournament to see who would win a shot at the AEW tag titles.

Daniel Garcia and Zack Sabre Jr defeated Katsuyori Shibata and Orange Cassidy

Slow and steady this match wasn’t much to write home about at first glance. However, there were some nice moments between Zack Sabre Jr and Orange Cassidy to be specific. Garcia was great too, and this was a harder hitting match than I had originally expected. If you were expecting a frenetic pace, you didn’t get it here. It was more methodical than anything, and it was a fun match overall. Zack Sabre Jr is my favorite wrestler right now, just impressive to say the least.

Kris Statlander defeated Taya Valkyrie in the AEW TBS Title Match

Taya did a lot of the damage in this match, it was slow and methodical. However, Statlander did manage to reverse some elements, and eventually got the Tombstone piledriver, and got the win. It was a test, however, Statlander stood tall overall, which was a lot of fun.

Overall Thoughts

A great deal of wrestling was found on this show, and I didn’t dislike any of it. I was impressed with how packed the show was, and how much fun I had with it. I loved it overall, and will be watching Rampage, Collision, and Forbidden Door. So much good stuff is coming from AEW.
