Welcome to our live results for a very special episode of AEW Dynamite.
Of course, in light of the current situation, tonight’s Dynamite will be taking place behind closed doors with no fans in the arena. However that isn’t stopping AEW from continuing with the show it already had planned.
As of now, AEW has a few matches planned; The Inner Circle Vs. The Elite; Best Friends Vs. Lucha Bros – unclear if that means PAC and Cassidy are at ringside; and Jurassic Express Vs. The Butcher & The Blade. On top of that, the Exalted One is set to be revealed, which will be odd with no fans present to react.
Well that’s the preview for Dynamite. We’ll have all the live results right here, from 8 PM EST. So follow along and enjoy the show!

AEW Dynamite

Dynamite opens with Cody standing in the darkened ring, with no fans. He says he’s never felt so small. It never dawned on him how important the service they provide is. And the irony of what he’s about to ask his not lose on him. He says he’s asking three stars to put aside their differences and put on a show. Cody says we need to stand at a distance and stay indoors, but there is a difference between that and living a life in a prison. In fact, he’s felt more alive than ever.


Cody mentions Matt Jackson, and says he needs him to put aside his anger towards Adam Page. Speaking of whom, Cody says he is tired of putting over Hangman Page, he constantly calls him the best performer in The Elite. He thought he’d be the first AEW Champion but he lost to Chris Jericho but guess what, so did he. And it’s time for Page to get over it.
As for Kenny Omega, he’s probably his most unique friend. He says the two of them don’t always get along and they’ll probably argue who’s number one until someone passes them by, but he needs him to be his very best. In all, he needs The Elite to be elite. Kenny and Matt come down to the ring.
Kenny says normally you’d be speaking to an arena full of people but tonight they’re just friends talking to friends. He says him and Cody have been at each others throats, but here they are, with the world falling down around them, unsure if they’ll even have a Dynamite next week. But if it’s up to him, he wants to go out like they came in.
Matt grabs the microphone and says he appreciates Cody’s call to arms but…it’s just the three of them in an empty arena. His brother couldn’t make it, and he asks where Page is. Hangman comes out onto the stage and Jackson says he knows things have been strange and he’s not saying they have to fix it tonight, but he’s asking him if he’ll stand with The Elite. Hangman holds up a glass of whiskey and nods before walking away.
Omega says it’s hard to do a show without fans, but the world needs some positivity right now. So it’s time to hit the lights, hit the pyro, and get Dynamite underway!


Tony Schiavone is with MJF at ringside. He asks why he’s here and MJF says it’s because he doesn’t have to wrestle tonight. He says it’s not worth the money AEW is offering to get in there tonight. But it’s fine because it allows the “undercard” talent to get some screen time. MJF takes some money from Shawn Spears, who turns out, is sitting nearby. Tony asks if they’re betting and MJF blows a gasket…then asks if he wants in on the action.

Winners: The Inner Circle

Jericho says they knew they already had the advantage, but they just beat them. Jericho says he doesn’t care if the world changes tomorrow, he’s banning all fans from all AEW events forever. And after what they did to Nick Jackson, The Elite only has four members, so they have a big advantage.

They’ve dominated AEW and they’re gonna dominate Blood & Guts as well. Sammy asks Brandi if she wants to hit him up. A drone flies down, yes a drone, and Matt Jackson says The Elite isn’t outnumbered. He says it isn’t just four, he made a phone call and they have a fifth. The drone lands in the ring, but then the camera cuts to the stands and BROKEN Matt Hardy is standing! Jericho looks terrified as Hardy chants DELETE!
