AEW Dynamite (Episode 369 – Fright Night)
St. Louis, Missouri, at Chaifetz Arena
Simulcast live October 28, 2026, on TBS and HBO Max
[Hour One] Excalibur, Taz, and Tony Schiavone checked in on commentary from ringside. Kyle Fletcher vs. Jack Perry, Marina Shafir in action, and a Kofi and Austin Creed promo were late lineup additions, along with the opening match…
Ring announcer Justin Roberts delivered the introductions while Jon Moxley and Daniel Garcia entered through the crowd. Jay White and David Finlay were listed as “The Cut” and entered via the stage…
Powell’s POV: White called his new faction The Last Outfit during Saturday’s Collision, but it was changed to The Cut just hours later. By the way, WrestleTix listed tonight’s host venue as being set up for 3,583, with 3,319 tickets distributed. The total number of seats on the map is 9,057. The last time AEW ran the venue, 6,293 tickets were distributed for the AEW WrestleDream pay-per-view on October 18, 2025.
1. AEW Continental Champion Jon Moxley and Daniel Garcia vs. Jay White and David Finlay. Garcia caught White in a submission hold, but Finlay pulled his partner to the floor. Moxley and Garcia went after White and Finlay at ringside before a picture-in-picture commercial break. [C]
White went for a Blade Runner, but Moxley put him down with a Paradigm Shift. Garcia tagged in, and then he and Moxley hit White with several clotheslines in a corner of the ring before Moxley put him down with a cutter.
Ace Austin showed up on the apron and got the attention of the referee. Wheeler Yuta showed up and hit Austin with a Busaiku Knee. Clark Connors showed up and speared Garcia while the referee was focused on the other two guys who weren’t in the match. White followed up with a Blade Runner and then pinned Garcia.
Jay White and David Finlay defeated Jon Moxley and Daniel Garcia in 13:30.
After the match, Austin Gunn, Colton Gunn, and Juice Robinson showed up to help the other members of The Cut. Claudio Castagnoli arrived and got the better of multiple members of The Cut before performing a Giant Swing on Connors. The Death Riders grabbed chairs and stood tall in the middle of the ring.
Moxley got a microphone and questioned where The Cut members were going because they were just getting started. Moxley challenged The Cut to Anarchy in the Arena at the November 14 Full Gear pay-per-view…
Powell’s POV: Hey, I got it right last week when I said it looked like they set up two Blood & Guts matches for next week and Anarchy in the Arena for Full Gear (blind squirrel, nut). Anyway, you had to assume White and Finlay would win the match since they just joined forces. The Cut didn’t look so great when the Death Riders stood tall afterward, but I wouldn’t be surprised if The Cut wins the Anarchy in the Arena match.
Highlights aired from Collision of Willow Nightingale, Harley Cameron, and Kris Statlander calling for a Blood & Guts match…
Excalibur hyped Jamie Hayter and Alex Windsor vs. Harley Cameron and Kris Statlander for the AEW Tag Team Titles for Full Gear. Excalibur also hyped Kyle Fletcher vs. Jack Perry for after the break… [C] Entrances for the next match took place…
2. Kyle Fletcher vs. Jack Perry. Don Callis sat in on commentary. Fletcher went to ringside and hugged him. Moments later, Perry went to ringside and hugged Taz. Cute. A short time later, Perry got the better of Fletcher on the floor before tossing him back inside the ring. When Perry followed, Fletcher hit him with a running knee strike, which sent him back to the floor. Fletcher performed a PK from the apron before a PIP break. [C]
