Bandido spoke about his upcoming match against Kazuchika Okada on Wednesday’s AEW Dynamite, saying fans will finally “see who is the best.” Reflecting on his journey, he revealed that he suffered a concussion earlier this year but is thankful for those who continued to believe in him. Bandido expressed gratitude for his position and promised to give his best for AEW fans.Statlander addressed the possibility of facing Mercedes Moné in a title-for-title match at AEW Full Gear, stating she would love for it to happen but would be ready to face Moné anytime. She described this period as her “moment to beat her.” When asked how she continues to evolve, Statlander explained that she’s still working through that process, emphasizing that it’s unfair to shame someone for not immediately knowing who they are after debuting on a national stage. She also named Marina Shafir as a potential challenger but said she’s open to facing anyone — even jokingly mentioning Wheeler Yuta.Discussing his recent series with Mark Briscoe, Fletcher said that while their score might suggest closure, “things change in pro wrestling constantly.” Regarding his championship goals, Fletcher revealed his current focus is on the TNT Championship but admitted that one day, he wants to be “the greatest of all time.” He avoided a question about Will Ospreay and quickly moved on. Fletcher added that he’ll be on Dynamite this Wednesday, warning that anyone who challenges him for the TNT Title “will meet the same result.”AEW President Tony Khan praised WrestleDream, calling it “one of the greatest shows the company has ever held.” He confirmed that Jon Moxley suffered a cut on his arm from the aquarium used in the main event but was otherwise fine. Khan shared that Lou Thesz’s widow, Charlie, attended the show and was “blown away” by the event.
Khan also addressed technical issues on Amazon Prime, attributing them to problems on Amazon’s end, though he expressed frustration that both Death Before Dishonor and WrestleDream experienced feed disruptions. He noted that Bryan Danielson missed the event due to a family commitment, which Khan said was understandable given the main event’s intensity.
Regarding future cross-promotional events, Khan suggested that Wrestle Kingdom weekend should center on Hiroshi Tanahashi’s retirement but praised Konosuke Takeshita’s win, reaffirming that “Takeshita is an AEW guy.” He added that a potential Okada vs. Takeshita title-for-title match “would be very interesting,” though AEW has no control over NJPW’s IWGP World Championship. Khan closed by expressing excitement for Bandido vs. Okada on Dynamite this week.
