Mina Shirakawa vs. Anna Jay

Anna Jay lost to Mariah May in their rematch on the April 10, 2024, episode of Dynamite. Jay launched a post-match assault on May. We saw the arrival of May’s former Stardom partner in Mina Shirakawa to make the save. The two women shared a kiss to signal their renewed alliance.

AEW announced Mina Shirakawa would take on Anna Jay in what marks the Stardom superstar’s in-ring debut for the Jacksonville-based promotion. Will Anna Jay get payback for the humiliation she suffered at the hands of Mina or will Mina stand tall in her AEW debut?

Chuck Taylor watched as Best Friends imploded in the lead-up to AEW Dynasty. For those unaware, Trent Barretta took out Orange Cassidy with a running knee on the April 3 episode of AEW Dynamite.

Barretta would defeat Matt Sydal at the AEW Dynasty Zero Hour pre-show. A relentless Barretta refused to let go of his choke hold on Sydal prompting Chuck Taylor to chase him out of the ring. Barretta told Chuckie T he had until Wednesday to pick a side.

HOOK’s defeat marked his third official singles loss in AEW. His previous two losses had come at the hands of Jack Perry and Samoa in 2023 and 2024 respectively. What will the new FTW Champion have to say?

We’ll find out on AEW Dynamite.

Jon Moxley (c) vs. Powerhouse Hobbs – IWGP World Heavyweight Championship

Jon Moxley made history nearly two weeks ago at an NJPW event. Mox became the first superstar to hold the top WWE, AEW, and NJPW titles. The Purveyor of Violence defeated Tetsuya Naito to become the new IWGP World Heavyweight Champion at Windy City Riot.

Mox made an appearance on the final Dynamite before Dynasty. He’d cut a promo before saving Claudio Castagnoli from the Don Callis Family later during the night. AEW confirmed Mox will defend his title against Hobbs.
