AEW Dynamite June 24, 2026 Results: Team Brisco & Team MJF Massive Chaos Ahead of Forbidden Door, Takeshita Retains International Title. The final layer of foundation for the highly anticipated AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door pay-per-view was permanently laid in New Mexico during an ultra-violent broadcast. Live from the Rio Rancho Events Center, this special edition of AEW Dynamite delivered final structural match qualifiers, physical championship defenses, and intense psychological warfare. With the massive event in San Jose just four days away, the locker room tension reached an all-time high as AEW Dynamite started.
AEW Dynamite Show Results Rundown
The night began backstage with AEW Continental Champion Jon Moxley giving an intense pep talk to the Death Riders and Will Ospreay, reminding them to have each other’s backs. Daniel Garcia invited Ospreay to join their huddle, which seemed like a major rite of passage. Ospreay got so incredibly fired up during the chant that he accidentally fell over, providing a rare moment of levity before a brutal night of battle.
Jon Moxley, Wheeler Yuta, & Claudio Castagnoli vs. Místico, Brody King, & Bandido
Once the competitors entered the ring, Wheeler Yuta and ROH World Champion Bandido engaged in a swift technical exchange, with Yuta grounding his opponent by targeting the lower leg. Moxley tagged in to stand face-to-face with Bandido, delivering a fierce, hard-hitting preview of their upcoming Forbidden Door championship encounter. The match shifted gears when CMLL icon Místico tagged in, utilizing a series of rapid step-up kicks and a spectacular tijeras to send Claudio Castagnoli crashing to the canvas. Brody King entered the fray to unleash a sequence of deafening chops, executing an unbelievable feat of athleticism by running up the turnbuckles to hit a double armdrag on both Moxley and Castagnoli simultaneously, which brought the Rio Rancho crowd to its feet.
The Death Riders eventually re-established control by systematically triple-teaming Bandido, with Yuta executing a heavy vertical suplex. Místico secured a hot tag, executing a crossbody off the ropes and a beautiful Code Red on Castagnoli for a very close near-fall. King tagged back in, leveling Castagnoli with an elbow before absorbing a sleeper hold from Moxley, which King broke by delivering a massive cannonball senton into the turnbuckles. The action broke down completely as Bandido deadlifted Castagnoli into a vertical suplex, only to get crushed by a Busaiku Knee from Yuta. King hoisted Moxley up for a definitive Gonzo Bomb, but Marina Shafir sprinted to the apron to cause a major distraction. The underhanded ploy worked perfectly, allowing Castagnoli to strike King across the back of the neck with the Continental Championship, which allowed Moxley to secure the pinfall victory.
Winners: Jon Moxley, Wheeler Yuta, & Claudio Castagnoli
Team Briscoe Outlines Their Stakes For Forbidden Door
Immediately following the opening contest, Renee Paquette was backstage with Team Briscoe, minus Mark Briscoe himself, to ask if they were truly ready for the upcoming multi-man steel cage match on Sunday. Darby Allin spoke up first, stating that while he doesn’t feel fully prepared, they have zero time to waste because this represents Briscoe’s definitive path to becoming the AEW World Champion. Allin vowed to do anything humanly possible to help Briscoe win, expressing hope that his teammates would bring that exact same energy.
Roderick Strong chimed in next, stating that while he despises the Don Callis Family, he hates World Champion MJF even more, swearing he will never forgive him for what he did to his best friend, Adam. Orange Cassidy promised that they would carry whatever weapons they needed to war inside their backpacks, confidently predicting that Konosuke Takeshita would place the AEW International Title in his own backpack after beating Ricochet later in the evening. As the group looked around, Kyle O’Reilly wondered where their leader was, prompting Cassidy to reassure the “sickos” that Briscoe would be in the middle of the ring tonight to deliver a final piece of his mind before they leave the scene.
Harley Cameron vs. Marina Shafir
Marina Shafir remained inside the ring for an immediate singles match, waiting aggressively as Harley Cameron made her entrance sporting custom, Supergirl-inspired wrestling gear following a red carpet premiere. Shafir showed zero respect for the attire, instantly blindsiding Cameron with a brutal kick to the midsection before the opening bell could even sound. Shafir mounted her opponent to deliver heavy ground-and-pound strikes, immediately transitioning the physical advantage into a painful half crab submission before Cameron managed to kick free toward the apron.
Cameron cracked Shafir with a running knee and a dropkick through the ropes before scaling the steel steps to execute a diving crossbody onto Shafir on the concrete floor. Shafir quickly shut down the aerial momentum back inside the ring, catching Cameron on the turnbuckles and throwing her across the canvas with reckless abandon. Shafir utilized her amateur background to execute a series of high-impact judo throws, ragdolling Cameron across the ring multiple times before delivering a stiff kick to the chest.
Cameron rallied out of nowhere with a belly-to-back suplex and a roundhouse kick, mounting Shafir in the corner for a quick barrage of punches. Shafir answered with repeated knees to the midsection, but as she attempted a final slam, Cameron rolled into a half crab of her own. Shafir quickly shifted the leverage into a rear-naked sleeper, but Cameron smartly rolled backward over Shafir’s shoulders, trapping her down to secure a shocking, surprise three-count victory.
Winner: Harley Cameron
Mercedes Moné and Athena Lay Out the Collision Stakes
The broadcast shifted to a special video package looking back at Maya World’s historic tournament upset over Athena on Collision to secure her high-profile position in the tournament brackets. World appeared on screen to label her upcoming finals match against Mercedes Moné an absolute dream come true for her career.
The segment prompted a harsh backstage response from Moné, who stood alongside Athena. The CEO bluntly stated that this is absolutely no Cinderella story, warning World that dreams do not win championships because she is the only one who does. It was subsequently announced that Moné and Athena will join forces to face Hyan and Maya World this Saturday night on Collision.
Will Ospreay vs. ELP
Will Ospreay entered the ring looking completely focused just four days away from his tournament finals match against Swerve Strickland. Longtime international rivals from their legendary days in New Japan, ELP and Ospreay shook hands at the bell before engaging in a rapid sequence of high-speed technical reversals. Ospreay connected with a stiff chop to the chest, but ELP responded with intricate footwork along the top rope to take Ospreay down with an armdrag. Ospreay landed on his feet, immediately striking ELP with a dropkick before executing a spectacular crossbody over the top rope onto the floor.
ELP turned the tide on the apron, executing a rough backdrop before taking to the skies with a picturesque top-rope moonsault onto Ospreay on the floor. ELP dominated the next several minutes, but Ospreay fought back to life with an enzigiri and a spinning corkscrew kick. ELP hit a tornado DDT, which Ospreay countered with a Stundog Millionaire, only for ELP to respond with an inverted stunner of his own.
The competitors traded heavy forearms from their knees before Ospreay executed an impressive Spanish Fly for a near-fall. ELP connected with a thrust kick, but Ospreay rolled through an aerial attack to land a Styles Clash, finishing ELP with a brutal Hidden Blade to the back of the head to claim the pinfall. As Ospreay celebrated, Swerve Strickland and Prince Nana made their entrance for the subsequent match, pausing by the tournament trophy to stare down the victor.
Winner: Will Ospreay
Swerve Strickland vs. Daniel Garcia
Daniel Garcia entered the ringside area alone, looking intensely focused as he threw a steel chair onto the floor before confronting Swerve Strickland face-to-face. Swerve stuffed an early double-leg takedown attempt, utilizing a shoulder tackle and heavy ground-and-pound strikes to control his opponent. Swerve whipped Garcia hard into the turnbuckles, delivering a deep back rake and a high boot to the jaw that sent Garcia tumbling to the concrete floor. Garcia answered by pulling Swerve into the ring skirt, hitting a dragon screw leg whip before executing a running dropkick to Swerve inside a steel chair. Garcia went for a secondary dropkick, but Swerve exploded out of the chair with a devastating House Call.
Strickland controlled the next several minutes, but as he attempted a top-rope Swerve Stomp, Garcia avoided the move, causing Swerve to land heavily and begin limping on his leg. Garcia targeted the injury, executing a dragon screw through the ropes before trying a piledriver on the hard apron, which Swerve countered with a Death Valley Driver on the apron structure. Swerve responded with a brainbuster inside the ring, but Garcia capitalized on Swerve’s failing leg, executing a running clothesline and trapping the champion in a painful ankle lock. Swerve hit a powerslam to escape, but his leg collapsed during a subsequent House Call attempt, allowing Garcia to connect with a Styles Clash as a direct tribute to Will Ospreay.
Swerve barely survived the cover, fighting back with a Flatliner and a House Call before using Ospreay’s own version of the Hidden Blade to secure the pinfall victory. Following the match, Swerve attempted to snap Garcia’s arm, prompting Will Ospreay to sprint down to spark a wild brawl. Ospreay hit a hook kick, but Prince Nana tripped him from the floor, allowing Swerve to drop Ospreay with a House Call. Swerve attempted a Vertebreaker on Ospreay, but Garcia rescued his ally, causing Swerve to execute the devastating Vertebreaker on Garcia instead before retreating up the ramp with the world title and the Owen Cup.
Winner: Swerve Strickland
Team DCMJF Explains Their Ideology of Family
The chronological broadcast moved backstage to a special look at the timeline that led to this massive faction war, transitioning into the Don Callis Family locker room where Don Callis introduced the official members of MJF’s steel cage squad. Kevin Knight took the microphone first, warning Darby Allin that if he skates into the pay-per-view, Knight will personally put him back in the emergency room, demanding a world title shot from MJF afterward. MJF dismissively agreed to the terms, while Kyle Fletcher stated that the moment the cage doors lock, he is going directly after Konosuke Takeshita to prove that the family never needed his presence.
MJF took the spotlight, labeling himself a born winner with a white collar, while calling Mark Briscoe a blue-collar failure. MJF admitted he has never kicked out of the Jay Driller, but vowed that Briscoe will never hit the move with the world title on the line. Callis then unveiled a brand-new official Team DCMJF t-shirt featuring an artistic rendering of himself and MJF in wrestling trunks, which caused the entire locker room roster to cringe visibly as the segment concluded.
Zack Sabre Jr. vs. Jack Perry
Jack Perry walked down the ramp completely alone, while Zack Sabre Jr. was flanked by TMDK stablemates Mikey Nicholls and Bad Dude Tito. ZSJ utilized his world-class technical skills to ground Perry instantly, manipulating his joints and forcing Perry to bite the top rope to break a painful hold. Perry rallied with a series of quick roll-up near-falls, frustrating the British star and forcing him to roll to the floor to regroup.
Perry connected with a series of heavy chops, but Sabre countered a rope bounce by trapping Perry in a cross armbreaker. Perry secured a rope break and threw ZSJ into the steel ring post before executing a Sliced Bread off the apron onto the floor. ZSJ answered back inside the ring, executing a pump kick to Perry’s shoulder and locking in a triangle sleeper, which Perry escaped via a deadlift powerbomb.
Perry locked in the Snare Trap, but his injured arm prevented him from applying full pressure, allowing ZSJ to escape and lock in a grotesque half crab and double-wrist lock combination to force an immediate submission victory just days before his clash with Kenny Omega.
Winner: Zack Sabre Jr.
Young Bucks vs. TMDK (Bad Dude Tito & Mikey Nicholls)
The reigning EVP duo of Matt and Nick Jackson started the tag team match at a frantic pace, utilizing stereo bulldogs and assisted dropkicks to clear TMDK from the ring before executing stereo crossbodies over the top rope to the floor. TMDK fought back on the apron, with Bad Dude Tito launching Nick Jackson heavily onto the concrete floor. Tito and Mikey Nicholls isolated Matt Jackson in their corner, executing a flapjack for a close two-count. Matt escaped the powerhouse dominance with a desperation DDT, allowing Nick Jackson to secure a hot tag.
Nick cleared the apron, executing an armdrag and headscissors combination from the top rope. The Young Bucks then initiated a superkick party, leveling Tito before executing a flawless Meltzer Driver on Nicholls to secure the pinfall victory.
Winners: Young Bucks
Following the final bell, Sabre and Tito rushed the ring to launch a post-match assault on the Young Bucks, prompting Kenny Omega and Jack Perry to sprint down for the save. After clearing TMDK from the ring, Omega and Sabre stood face-to-face, trading heavy forearms in the center of the ring before Omega dropped ZSJ with a Snap Dragon suplex. Omega took the microphone, stating that their match is strictly about redemption, warning Sabre that everyone will forget about him after Sunday. Sabre responded simply, telling Omega to try his best to stay out of the hospital.
Thekla Invades STARDOM In Japan
The broad international landscape of the promotion was spotlighted next as fans received a special report regarding the reigning AEW Women’s World Champion, Thekla. Ahead of her high-profile crossover championship defense against Starlight Kid at the pay-per-view, footage revealed that Thekla made a surprise appearance at a STARDOM event over the weekend in Japan.
Thekla launched a completely unprovoked physical assault on President Taro Okada, causing absolute chaos at ringside until Starlight Kid herself ran down to execute a savior attack and drive the champion away. As security pulled her away backstage, a screaming Thekla claimed that STARDOM doesn’t care about Starlight Kid because they are sending her straight into a slaughter on Sunday.
Queen Aminata vs. Red Velvet
A secondary high-stakes qualifier for the wide-open TBS Championship Survival of the Fittest match took center stage next. Queen Aminata clashed with the reigning ROH Women’s World TV Champion, Red Velvet, with both athletes showing an intimate familiarity with each other’s offensive styles early on. Aminata utilized her superior size advantage early, executing a release German suplex and a running knee strike to secure a close near-fall.
Velvet targeted Aminata’s previously injured neck with a heavy powerbomb out of the corner, following up with an axe kick and a running bulldog to express her immense frustration. Aminata answered with a front-face suplex and a diving foot stomp off the second rope directly to Velvet’s midsection.
The final exchange saw Velvet connect with a cazadora and a frog splash to Aminata’s back, but Aminata blasted her with a series of unblocked forearms. Velvet tried to respond with a roundhouse kick, which Aminata ducked beautifully, shoving Velvet into the ropes for a nasty headbutt before running across the ring to land her signature Off With Her Head strike to secure the pinfall victory.
Winner: Queen Aminata
Cope & Cage Gain Retribution Against The Dogs
Backstage, Renee Paquette interviewed Matt and Nick Jackson regarding their upcoming three-way tag team match at the pay-per-view. The Bucks claimed the entire momentum of the division was on their side, promising to superkick the forbidden door down on Sunday. Suddenly, a massive commotion was heard off-camera as AEW World Tag Team Champions Adam Copeland and Christian Cage were seen engaged in a wild brawl against Clark Connors and David Finlay of The Dogs.
The champions dragged their rivals near the makeup area, putting Finlay into a wheelchair and running him heavily into a concrete wall. When Cage and Copeland turned their attention toward Connors, he grabbed a local makeup artist and held her as a human shield to stop their advance. Copeland moved the woman to safety, which allowed Finlay to recover and spray hairspray directly into Copeland’s face.
The Dogs capitalized on the temporary blindness, spraying Cage as well before Connors delivered a low blow. The Dogs ran Copeland into the wall, choking both champions with electrical wires while trash-talking them the entire time. They finally let go as Cage and Copeland gasped for air, closing the backstage segment with a mock five-second pose over the fallen champions.
AEW International Championship Match: Konosuke Takeshita (c) vs. Ricochet
Ricochet entered the main event arena alongside his traditional allies, but management barred all managers from ringside, forcing them to the back. Ricochet launched an immediate attack at the opening bell, hitting a pump knee before soaring over the top rope with a spectacular Spaceman Plancha. Ricochet threw the champion back inside, landing a missile dropkick, a Sasuke Special to the floor, and a 450 Splash to secure an incredibly close two-count in the opening minutes. Ricochet maintained the high-speed offense with a springboard flying elbow and a running shooting star press.
Takeshita halted the momentum on the floor, catching an aerial attack to execute a brutal Exploder Suplex onto the concrete. Takeshita capitalized inside the ring, leveling Ricochet with a thunderous Blue Thunder Bomb for a near-fall. Ricochet answered back with a series of strikes and his signature Vertigo maneuver, but Takeshita kicked out at the last possible second.
Ricochet connected with a Shooting Star Press, but Takeshita kicked out with authority, prompting Ricochet to scale the ropes again. Takeshita intercepted him, but Ricochet landed on his feet out of a top-rope German suplex. Ricochet missed a Spirit Gun and connected with a Ricosault, but Takeshita survived the pin, leveled Ricochet with a lariat, and connected with a Power Drive Knee before hitting Raging Fire to successfully retain his championship.
Winner: Konosuke Takeshita
Following the main event, Mark Briscoe marched down to the ring with a microphone, reminding the audience of The Conglomeration’s historic success in multi-man matches. Briscoe labeled World Champion MJF a privileged, soft infant, while calling himself a grown man who previously pinned the champion. Suddenly, MJF launched a blindside attack from behind, prompting Kyle Fletcher to run down and drop Briscoe with a sheer drop brainbuster. Konosuke Takeshita returned to execute Raging Fire on Fletcher, Kazuchika Okada leveled Takeshita with a Rainmaker, and Kyle O’Reilly trapped Okada in an ankle lock.
The brawl escalated rapidly as Kevin Knight hit a top-rope clothesline, Darby Allin executed a Scorpion Death Drop, and Jake Doyle flattened Allin with Into the Void. Roderick Strong and Orange Cassidy cleared the ring with running strikes, but MJF blindsided Cassidy with a low blow. Briscoe returned to position MJF for the Jay Driller, but Andrade El Ídolo ran in to deliver a saving clothesline. MJF retrieved his Dynamite Diamond Ring, aiming for Briscoe, but Briscoe sidestepped the strike, causing MJF to accidentally knock out Andrade. Briscoe immediately capitalized, dropping a dazed MJF with a thunderous Jay Driller to stand victorious over the World Champion as Team Briscoe celebrated in the ring.
