Opening —

  • The Young Bucks and Brandon Cutler are shown driving to last week’s show in Fresno. They spoke about the passing of Jay Briscoe, how much they loved him, and how it’ll be tough wrestling on TV that night. Nick Jackson noted that it was completely voluntary for talent to work the show. 

Highlights from AEW Dynamite —

  • Cutler’s footage from the Young Bucks vs. Top Flight from last week’s Dynamite was shown. 
  • Matt & Nick Jackson spoke about their match with Darius & Dante Martin in the back after. They noted that they had been so distracted throughout the day that they actually forgot to wear their Trios Championship belts out to the ring. 

Ryan Nemeth goes snowboarding —

  • Nemeth’s segment this week featured interviews with some local snowboarders and footage of a snowboarding trip he took. 
  • Nemeth and the snowboarders talked a lot about all these cool tricks Nemeth was doing but he looked like he was struggling with even just getting on the board in the footage that was shown. 
  • There were more concerns expressed regarding how Nemeth walks.

The Dark Order try to recruit Adam Cole —

  • Adam Cole returned to the show and Alex Reynolds and John Silver tried to recruit him into the Dark Order. Cole said if they stop calling him “Budge” he was into the idea. 
  • Then Evil Uno walked in and called him Budge and Cole said he needed to sleep on it. 

After the show —

  • The Bucks, Cutler, and Christopher Daniels were in the car getting ready to drive home after the show. 
  • Nick said it was good to be able to be with people that were close with Jay. 
  • Matt said Mark Briscoe watched the match and was texting with them. Daniels also said that he heard from Mark that night.
