AEW Dynamite Results Jan 21, 2025 – Brody Hunts MJF, Omega vs. Alexander Dream Match, Street Fight Chaos. This week’s AEW Dynamite review comes to you from a raucous night in Orlando, Florida. The road to Revolution is heating up, but the immediate fallout from last Saturday’s Collision took center stage. With controversy swirling around the AEW World Championship picture, tonight promised answers, violence, and dream matches.
The card was stacked with high-stakes encounters, including a brutal Trios Street Fight and a technical masterpiece between Kenny Omega and Josh Alexander. But the headline story remains the “Devil” himself, MJF, and the massive target on his back following his dubious victory over Bandido. From the unraveling dynamic of the Trios Champions to the rise of new contenders in the women’s division, let’s break down every segment, match, and surprise with our complete AEW Dynamite review and results.
AEW Dynamite Rundown
AEW Dynamite Begins –
Brody King Demands Justice for “Brodido”
The show opened with AEW World Champion MJF strutting to the ring, the “Triple B” belt draped over his shoulder. He immediately launched into a tirade about his title defense last week on Collision, claiming he “outclassed” luchador sensation Bandido. The Orlando crowd wasn’t buying it, raining down boos as MJF glossed over the blatant cheating—the eye poke and the handful of tights—that secured his win. His victory lap was cut short by the imposing entrance of Brody King.
Stepping out from the back, King wasn’t looking for a cryptic exchange; he was looking for a fight. Representing “Brodido,” King got strictly to the point: MJF didn’t beat Bandido; he robbed him. King towered over the champion, demanding a title shot not just for the gold, but to extract revenge for his partner. The physical disparity was jarring, with MJF shrinking in the corner as King promised that the “House of Ass-Kicking” was open for business. MJF retreated through the crowd, clutching his title, clearly rattled by the confrontation while commentary noted that Brody King presents a physical threat that can’t be easily outsmarted.
Tension Boils Over for Hangman and JetSpeed
Backstage, Renee Paquette caught up with the AEW World Trios Champions: “Hangman” Adam Page and JetSpeed (“The Jet” Kevin Knight and “Speedball” Mike Bailey). While they carry the gold, they hardly looked like a cohesive unit. Page was pacing, his eyes wild, talking about “making people bleed” and sending messages.
In contrast, Knight and Bailey tried to keep the tone focused on athleticism and competition. When Page suggested they needed to be more vicious to keep their spots, Bailey visibly bristled. The segment highlighted the growing fracture in the group: Hangman is on a dark, violent path, while JetSpeed is trying to maintain their honor. The champions left for their respective matches separately, a telling sign that their days as a unified trio may be numbered.
Samoa Joe vs. “Speedball” Mike Bailey
In our opening contest, “Speedball” Mike Bailey looked to prove Hangman wrong by defeating a monster on his own terms. Bailey used his trademark speed and martial arts background to stick and move, peppering Samoa Joe with rapid-fire kicks. He briefly stunned the “Samoan Submission Machine” with a beautiful Moonsault to the outside, showing the heart that has made him a fan favorite, though Joe’s power constantly threatened to end the night early.
The end came when Joe’s veteran instincts took over. He absorbed Bailey’s best shot—a tornado kick in the corner—and simply walked through it to deliver a devastating STJoe that planted Bailey firmly on the canvas. Bailey tried to rally with a desperation roll-up, but Joe transitioned seamlessly into the Coquina Clutch. Bailey fought to the bitter end, kicking his legs, but eventually passed out in the center of the ring.
Winners: Samoa Joe defeated Mike Bailey by submission
Following the bell, Joe released the hold and gave a rare nod of respect to the unconscious Bailey. Kevin Knight ran down to check on his partner, while Hangman Page was notably absent from ringside, further emphasizing the split in the Trios team.
Trios Street Fight: Death Riders vs. Don Callis Family
The violence escalated quickly in this Trios Street Fight, as the Death Riders (AEW Continental Champion Jon Moxley, Wheeler Yuta, and Daniel Garcia) went to war with the Don Callis Family (Hechicero, Lance Archer, and Rocky Romero). With no rules to hold them back, the arena became a playground of destruction. Lance Archer chokeslammed Garcia onto the apron, while Hechicero tied Moxley up in a unique submission using the guardrail, turning the ringside area into a demolition zone.
The turning point came when Wheeler Yuta sacrificed his body, launching himself off the stage to put Lance Archer through a table, effectively taking the “Murderhawk Monster” out of the equation. Back in the ring, the numbers game favored the Death Riders. Garcia locked Hechicero in a Dragon Tamer while Moxley delivered a brutal Death Rider to Rocky Romero onto a steel chair to secure the three-count.
Winners: Death Riders (Jon Moxley, Wheeler Yuta, and Daniel Garcia) defeated Don Callis Family by pinfall
The Death Riders stood tall among the wreckage, looking like the most dominant faction in AEW, with Moxley grabbing a camera to scream, “This is our kingdom now!” before the segment faded.
The Triangle of Madness Issues a Warning
A cinematic vignette interrupted the broadcast, introducing the “Triangle of Madness.” The video was a disturbing montage of gold turning into rust and crowns crumbling into dust. A distorted voiceover spoke about “false idols” and “temporary champions,” warning that the current hierarchy of AEW was about to be dismantled.
While no faces were clearly shown, the imagery strongly hinted at the AEW World Tag Team Titles and the Women’s Championships. The production value was eerie and high-budget, suggesting that whoever is behind this faction has the resources and the patience to strike when it hurts the most. The commentary team was left speechless, speculating on who could be behind the threats.
FTR vs. Alec Price & Jordan Oliver
AEW World Tag Team Champions FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler) took on the hungry, high-flying team of Alec Price and Jordan Oliver in non-title action. Price and Oliver, known for their frantic pace on the indie scene, tried to blitz the champions early. Oliver hit a stunning cutter on Cash Wheeler that nearly caused a massive upset within the first two minutes, waking up the champions who had to rely on their brawling ability to slow the match down.
But FTR eventually settled the pace, using their superior tag team continuity to cut the ring in half. They isolated Alec Price, systematically working over his back to neutralize his aerial offense. A desperation tag to Oliver sparked a comeback, but it was short-lived as FTR caught Oliver in mid-air and connected with the Shatter Machine for the decisive victory.
Winners: FTR defeated Alec Price & Jordan Oliver by pinfall
FTR celebrated their win but kept their eyes on the entrance ramp, seemingly aware that the “Triangle of Madness” warning was directed at them, showing they are ready for whatever comes next.
Statlander and Willow Accept the Challenge
AEW Women’s World Champion Kris Statlander and TBS Champion Willow Nightingale came to the ring for an interview. Both champions have been dealing with cryptic messages for weeks, and they decided enough was enough. Willow, usually the bubbling center of positivity, showed her fighting spirit, declaring that they don’t hide from shadows.
Statlander was even more direct, calling out the “Triangle of Madness” to show their faces. She stated that she’s fought aliens and monsters, so a few spooky videos won’t scare her. The two champions officially accepted the challenge for a future tag team match, showing a united front atop the women’s division. As they left, the lights flickered briefly in the arena, a subtle sign that their message was received by their unknown stalkers.
Kenny Omega vs. Josh Alexander
In a match that could headline any pay-per-view in the world, Kenny Omega faced “The Walking Weapon” Josh Alexander. This was a technical wrestling clinic from the opening bell. Alexander focused his attack on Omega’s neck, utilizing heavy German Suplexes and his signature ankle lock to ground the explosive “Cleaner.” Omega had to fight from underneath, relying on his snap dragons and V-Triggers to create distance.
The final sequence brought the fans to their feet as Alexander countered the One-Winged Angel into a deep Ankle Lock. Omega managed to roll through the submission, sending Alexander face-first into the turnbuckle. A dazed Alexander stumbled back into a V-Trigger to the back of the head, and Omega then hoisted him up and finally connected with the One-Winged Angel to secure the win.
Winners: Kenny Omega defeated Josh Alexander by pinfall
Omega sat in the ring, exhausted, while the crowd gave both men a standing ovation. They shook hands, adhering to the Code of Honor and showing mutual respect after the war they just survived.
Technique by Taz: MJF’s “Victory” Over Bandido
Taz hosted a special segment at the monitor, breaking down the controversial finish from last week’s Collision. Using slow-motion footage, Taz highlighted exactly how MJF stole the win from Bandido. He circled the moment MJF grabbed the tights, noting the referee was out of position.
More importantly, Taz pointed out a thumb to the eye that occurred split-seconds before the rollup. “This isn’t wrestling,” Taz argued, “this is grand larceny.” The analysis served to validate Brody King’s earlier anger—Bandido didn’t lose a wrestling match; he was cheated out of the World Title. The segment reinforced the narrative that MJF is vulnerable when he can’t cheat, setting the stage for his feud with Brody King.
”Megasus” Megan Bayne & Penelope Ford vs. Timeless Love Bombs
The team of “Megasus” Megan Bayne and Penelope Ford looked to make a statement against the “Timeless Love Bombs” (Toni Storm and Mina Shirakawa). Storm and Mina brought the glamour and the theatrics, trying to use double-team maneuvers to confuse the powerhouse Bayne. However, the strength difference was insurmountable as Bayne simply powered through Storm’s offense, tossing her across the ring with ease.
Ford played the perfect spoiler, cutting off Mina Shirakawa every time she tried to make a save. The finish saw Bayne catch a diving Mina in mid-air, transitioning into a tombstone piledriver while Ford hit a cutter on Storm to prevent the break-up, allowing Bayne to score the pinfall.
Winners: “Megasus” Megan Bayne & Penelope Ford defeated Timeless Love Bombs by pinfall
Bayne stood over her opponents like a conqueror, signaling that she and Ford are coming for championship gold very soon, putting the entire division on notice.
Main Event: Swerve Strickland vs. “The Jet” Kevin Knight
In the main event of our AEW Dynamite review, Swerve Strickland looked to climb back into title contention against Trios Champion Kevin Knight. Knight, fueled by the earlier tension with Hangman Page, came out with something to prove. He used his incredible vertical leap to hit a dropkick that nearly took Swerve’s head off, using his high-flying ability to keep the former World Champion on the defensive.
But Swerve, ever the opportunist, targeted Knight’s leg to ground the high-flyer. He methodically picked Knight apart, mocking the “JetSpeed” moniker. Knight rallied with a springboard crossbody, but when he went for his finisher, his injured leg gave out. Swerve capitalized instantly with a House Call kick, followed by the Swerve Stomp for the victory.
Winners: Swerve Strickland defeated Kevin Knight by pinfall
As Swerve had his hand raised, “Hangman” Adam Page walked out onto the stage. He didn’t say a word, nor did he help his fallen partner. He simply stared at Swerve with pure hatred, reigniting one of the most intense rivalries in AEW history as the show faded to black.
Final Thoughts
This episode of Dynamite successfully reset the board for Revolution. The Brody King and MJF dynamic is fresh and compelling, grounded in the reality of last week’s Collision. Meanwhile, the slow-burn disintegration of the Trios Champions is providing compelling drama week-to-week.
