This week's Dynamite recap is brought to you by "bWo's own personal notebook."
Danielson vs Pac - Damn this was good. For a few seconds at the end I thought Pac was winning it. These guys have tons of chemistry in there together.
Willow Nightengale interview - I thought this interview was going to deflate the crowd but Willow did a good job of keeping them fired up. She's got a really likable personality.
Mark Briscoe promo. "They call me Chicken but don't get it twisted because I ain't afraid of shet." HAHAHAHAHA. Mark Briscoe is a treasure. Jack Perry got a lot of heat after he jumped him. He's so much better as "The Scapegoat" then he was as Jungle Boy. Kyle O'Reilly was throwing some of THE WORST PUNCHES I HAVE EVER SEEN at Perry when he came in for the save. Best part of this segment was Okada acting like a DJ scratching a record on his belt as The Acclaimed music was playing. The guy is either hilarious or unintentionally hilarious.
Toni Storm/Mariah May interview - Toni Storm is hot. That is all.
Willow vs Statlander - Not a big fan of women's wrestling but this match was okay. Looked like Willow SQUASHED Statlander with a cannonball off the apron to the floor. I was surprised she popped right back up. Statlander landed an impressive F5 at one point. Match ended with the ol' WWE distraction/roll up for Willow.
Interview with Jeff Jarrett - Renee asked Jarrett about his emotions going into this match and he walked off. I'll never forget how broken up Jeff and Debra were on the Raw after Owen died during their interviews/reflections. Debra was crying and saying she kept thinking it was a prank and that Owen was going to show up. Broke my heart then and still does now.............. I thought Jarrett should have won the inaugural Owen Hart Foundation Tournament. I think Tony REALLY dropped the ball on that.
Britt Baker/Mercedes Mone - Britt talking about how she had the symptoms of a mini stroke. Sounds like side effects from a certain somethin somethin. Just sayin............ Bucks met up with Mercedes when she made her arrival and said, "this is a CEO I could get behind." I agree. I would DEFINITELY get behind Mercedes. I liked this segment. I thought they played their roles well. Crowd was REALLY into this cheering Britt and giving Mone a loud "shut the feck up" chant. Good stuff here.
Jericho comes to the ring with a letter from The Bucks dismissing Taz from his announce duties for the rest of the night with Jericho replacing him. I guess Christopher Daniels had the night off tonight.
Joe, Hook, Shibata vs Brian Cage, Bishop Kaun and Toa Liona - Announcing Hook at 201 pounds is laughable. A lot of tongues out and AAAAARGRGAHGAHGAHGAGAHGAHAG in this one. Match was MEH. Post match beat down by Jericho, Bill and Bryan Keith was the best part. Chokeslam by Bill on Hook through the table looked great.
Hangman Adam Page vs Jeff Jarrett - They wanted the crowd on Jarrett's side for this (and they were) and had Hangman beat on him mercilessly to come across as more vicious. Jarrett hit a "Stroke" on the apron at one point and got Hangman into the "Sharpshooter." The crowd went nuts. For a tenth of a second I thought there was a chance Jarrett would pull this out, but no. Hangman finished him off with a "Buckshot" and 2 "deadeyes."
Hook backstage getting medical treatment when he's attacked by The Learning Tree again. I was hoping Bill was going to chokeslam him through the table that was RIGHT THERE but instead The Wizard made his return as Jericho throws a fireball into Hook's face. I really like Bryan Keith's intensity. Great character.
Renee backstage tries to interview Hangman who looks like a goddamn psychopath. The Bucks show up to ask him to be their partner at "Blood N Guts" and he goes ape shet on them and tells them off saying he's isn't in The Elite anymore.
Ospreay vs Garcia - I thought MJF was going to cost Garcia the match but he turned on him afterwards instead. Ospreay and Garcia work well together. This was a good match. I laughed out loud when Ospreay offered Garcia a "free shot" and Garcia did his dance and was essentially smacking Ospreay in the head/face with with his d1ck. MJF's post match assault on Garcia was pretty savage. His wife beater being covered in blood looked good. Tombstone off the 2nd rope looked really good. MJF was spitting on people in the crowd and throwing garbage at them when he left the ring. Problem is you're not going to get much heat for that because it's Chicago and that probably happened to those people on their way to the show. It will be interesting to see how fans react to MJF going forward. He's better as a heel but fans want to cheer him. If anyone can do it it's him, but he's definitely gonna have to work for it.
This was a really good show with a really hot crowd. I don't think there was any point during the night where the fans went silent. More of this please.
