Kyle Fletcher just scored one of the biggest win of his AEW career—and he did it against his own stablemate.

In the opening match of AEW Dynamite on November 26, 2025, Fletcher defeated AEW Unified Champion Kazuchika Okada in a Continental Classic Gold League bout live from The Pinnacle in Nashville.

Both men, representing Don Callis Family, entered the match with respect, shaking hands at the start and engaging in a technical battle that quickly escalated into a brutal war of attrition. Fletcher nearly sealed the match early with a powerbomb and superplex, while Okada countered with a vicious tombstone piledriver and the setup for a Rainmaker.

But just as Okada looked to close it out, Fletcher dug deep and turned the tables with a surprise pin. He grabs Fletcher but Fletcher rolls him up for the win.

The roll-up shocked the live crowd and immediately put Fletcher on the board in the Continental Classic Gold League. Despite Okada’s experience and status as champion, Fletcher kept pushing, countering Okada’s offense with stiff elbows, slams, and precise timing.

Fletcher’s win now complicates the internal chemistry of the Don Callis Family, especially as the Continental Classic continues to pit teammates against each other in pursuit of gold.
