It’s almost time for AEW Dynamite!
All Elite Wrestling comes to Bon Secours Wellness Arena in Greenville, SC, tonight. The show will feature the fallout from Blood & Guts. For those who weren’t able to watch the chaos that unfolded last week, check out our review for AEW Blood & Guts here.
That being said, let’s dive right into our preview of 7/31 Dynamite.
Trios tag team match on AEW Dynamite
The Conglomeration have a huge challenge coming up ahead. The team of Mark Briscoe, Orange Cassidy and Tomohiro Ishii will take on RUSH, Roderick Strong and The Beast Mortos on Dynamite tonight.
Mark Briscoe successfully retained his world title against Strong at ROH Death Before Dishonor. He, O’Reilly and Ishii were also successful against The Premier Athletes this past Saturday on AEW Collision.
Willow Nightingale (c) vs. Kris Statlander – CMLL Championship Eliminator
Two former friends will go head-to-head on Dynamite tonight.
Willow Nightmare takes on Kris Statlander in a CMLL Championship Eliminator. The two women have been at war since Statlander betrayed Nightingale at AEW Double or Nothing.
Nightingale would beat Statlander in the Owen Hart Women’s Tournament semi-final before ultimately losing to Mariah May in the finals. Can Statlander even her score with Nightingale and get a future shot at the CMLL Championship?
Mariah May sit-down interview on AEW Dynamite
Mariah May destroyed Toni Storm immediately after winning the Owen Hart Tournament. She added insult to injury through her mockery of the AEW Women’s World Champion on the following Dynamite.
With a world title match between the two women already set for All In, “The Glamour” Mariah May comes to Greensville for a sit-down interview with All Elite Wrestling’s very own Renee Paquette tonight.
Will Ospreay vs. Lance Archer
Lance Archer has been on a path of destruction as of late. “The Murderhawk Monster” made his AEW television return on Rampage last week. Archer made quick work of Aljejandro before delivering the same fate to GKM on the following Collision.
AEW announced that Archer will take on Will Ospreay in a must-see match on Dynamite. Can the “Aerial Assassin” put a stop to Archer just weeks into losing his International Championship or will Archer add Ospreay to his list of victims?
We’ll hear from Mercedes Moné
Mercedes Moné had a huge trick up her sleeve last week at AEW Blood & Guts.
The double champ brought former NWA star Kamille as her enforcer last week. Kamille attacked Dr. Britt Baker following her match against Hikaru Shida.
Tonight, the CEO shows up at Bon Secours Wellness Arena with AEW’s latest addition by her side.

Bryan Danielson speaks on AEW Dynamite
Bryan Danielson revealed last week his AEW contract expires on August 1. Danielson hasn’t had a match since he beat “Hangman” Adam Page in the Owen Hart finals on 7/10 AEW Dynamite.
We recently learned that Danielson has been working under “heavy restrictions” due to his neck issues. He is set to take on Swerve Strickland for the AEW World Championship at All In.
Danielson will address fans on Dynamite tonight.
Adam Page vs. Darby Allin
Adam Page and Darby Allin will be in action against each other on Dyanmite.
Both men partook in the Blood & Guts match between Team Elite and Team AEW. Page reluctantly entered the cage after Matt Jackson threatened to fire him. Darby delivered some high-risk moves before forcing Matt to quit or watch Jack Perry get burned alive.
AEW announced that Page and Darby will go one-on-one just week after both men put their bodies through hell. Can the Hangman emerge as the last man standing or will Darby grab another win against the EVP’s wild card?
