Welcome to Bleacher Report's live coverage of AEW Dynamite on April 29.

Double or Nothing is coming up on May 24, but All Elite Wrestling president Tony Khan has already started planning the show and hyping the various feuds that will make up the card.

This week's show featured four huge title matches. Here's a look at the card:

  • Darby Allin vs. Brody King (AEW World Championship)
  • Kevin Knight vs. MJF (TNT Championship)
  • Kazuchika Okada vs. Ace Austin (International Championship)
  • Divine Dominion vs. Kris Statlander and Hikaru Shida (Women's Tag Team Championships)
  • Cage and Cope vs. RPG Vice
  • Rush in action
  • The Brawling Birds in action
  • Let's take a look at what happened on this week's Dynamite.

    Kevin Knight vs. MJF (TNT Championship)

    1 of 2
    AEW

    Last time in action: Kevin Knight defeated Claudio Castagnoli (Dynamite, April 15), MJF lost to Darby Allin (Dynamite, April 15)

    After a quick video package showing what happened on last week's show, we went live in the arena for MJF's entrance for his opening TNT title bout against Kevin Knight.

    After some long introductions that included a huge banner for MJF, the match got underway. He kicked Knight in the gut and took him outside of the ring to start inflicting as much damage as possible by ramming him into the steel steps.

    MJF usually comes into his matches playing mind games and trying to play it cool, so it was fun to see him play an angrier version of himself who wasted no time.

    These are two of the young stars who could carry AEW for several years to come, so seeing them lock horns felt like what could be the start of a long-term feud that AEW can go back to multiple times.

    To the surprise of nobody, this was a very physical encounter. Knight brought the exciting moments with his offense, and MJF garnered a lot of boos with his usual heel tactics. This was a great start to the show and built on their previous encounter back in March.

    Knight began selling an injured knee after being pushed off the top rope, so the former world champion focused all of his attacks on that leg. MJF tried to cheat with his diamond ring, but Knight beat him to the punch with a low blow and a rollup to get the win.

    MJF continued his assault after the bell until Darby Allin lowered from the rafters like Sting and hit him with a Scorpion Death Drop.

    Result: Knight defeated MJF

    Grade: A-

    Notable Moments and Observations

  • Even if you are one of those people who is not a fan of MJF's shtick, you have to admit he is good at what he does. He knows all the little things to do to get extra heat between big moments.
  • Knight has gotten better with his selling. He takes more time to sell the big spots, which helps make any match feel more competitive than just rushing from move to move.
  • Knight's springboard clothesline was shot form the perfect angle.
  • Brawling Birds vs. Emily Jaye and Jordan Blade

    2 of 2

    Last time in action: Brawling Birds defeated Thekla and Marina Shafir (Collision, April 8)

    Jamie Hayter and Alex Windsor were in action against Emily Jaye and Jordan Blade, two wrestlers from the indie scene.

    This was little more than an excuse to give Hayter and Windsor a decisive win. The other team didn't get in a single shred of offense before they were beaten in under two minutes.

    If you ever want to show someone a squash match, make it this one. It was the definition of the word, but giving The Brawling Birds more ring time is never a bad thing.

    Result: The Brawling Birds won

    Grade: Incomplete

    Notable Moments and Observations

  • Allin offered Knight a title shot for next week if he survives King tonight.
  • Renee Paquette sounded like she was either sick or lost her voice during a backstage interview.
  • Blade had unique gear and a cool look.
