AEW Dynamite came to you live from the Byline Bank Aragon Ballroom in Chicago, Illinois, on July 16, 2025,
Kyle Fletcher vs Mascara Dorada
The night kicked off with Kyle Fletcher flanked by Don Callis and Lance Archer taking on the high-flying Mascara Dorada. Fletcher, blending technical precision with brute force, overcame Dorada’s dazzling offense to score the win at 12:43, further solidifying his spot in the Don Callis Family’s growing hierarchy.
The Don Callis Family (Hechicero & Josh Alexander) & The Young Bucks (Matt Jackson & Nick Jackson) vs Bandido, Brody King & JetSpeed (Kevin Knight & Mike Bailey)
In a chaotic eight-man tag, the unlikely alliance of The Don Callis Family’s Hechicero and Josh Alexander with The Young Bucks took on the eclectic team of Bandido, Brody King, and the high-octane duo JetSpeed (Kevin Knight & Mike Bailey). The match saw fast-paced offense, power moves, and a few hints of dysfunction among the babyface team. In the end, synergy and ruthlessness won out as the Callis/Bucks squad picked up the win in 13:36.
$100,000 Four-Way
A $100,000 prize was on the line in a high-stakes four-way between Thekla, Kris Statlander, Queen Aminata, and Willow Nightingale. All four women came out swinging with desperation and determination, but it was Thekla who shocked the field, sneaking in the pin at 10:44 to secure the biggest payday of her AEW career.
Okada vs Quintero
Kazuchika Okada, the “Rainmaker” and undisputed centerpiece of Don Callis’ expanding empire, demolished Quintero in a stunning 1:03 squash. With Callis proudly directing from ringside, Okada’s message to the AEW locker room was loud and clear: dominance is non-negotiable.
Hangman Page, Mark Briscoe & Powerhouse Hobbs vs Over Death Riders
The night closed with a bruising trios main event as “Hangman” Adam Page, Mark Briscoe, and Powerhouse Hobbs battled the fearsome Death Riders—Jon Moxley, Claudio Castagnoli, and Wheeler Yuta, accompanied by Marina Shafir. This hard-fought contest brought intensity, weapons, and wild brawling. After 17 minutes of gritty, blood-tinged action, it was Page and his team who stood tall, securing a huge morale victory with a pinfall at 17:43.
