AEW Dynamite Results, Winners, Live Grades, Reaction, Highlights After Redemption

AEW Redemption is done, which means it's time for the buildup to All In on August 30 in London.

Sunday's show saw Maya World win the TBS title, Andrade clinch the National Championship, and Willow Nightingale claim her first world title.

We also saw Will Ospreay choose his principles over aligning with The Death Riders, but that didn't stop Kenny Omega from hitting a One-Winged Angel on him.

This week's Dynamite focused on the fallout from the pay-per-view and began the build to the Wembley Stadium event.

Let's take a look at what went down on Wednesday's show.

A Death Rider No More

After a brief rundown from Excalibur, we got a video recapping what happened in the main event of Redemption with Will Ospreay choosing not to attack Kenny Omega. It included footage of The Death Riders watching as Kenny Omega took Ospreay out at the end.

Renee tried to interview Billy Goat backstage, but he ended up seeing The Death Riders. Ospreay took out Daniel Garcia, but Jon Moxley stopped Pac from retaliating. Ospreay handed him back his Death Rider patch and said he is out. They allowed Ospreay to pass, but then Adam Page showed up.

Hangman said he's there for Will if he needs anything, but Ospreay said he needs to do this on his own. When we went back to the arena, Jack Perry made his entrance for the National Championship match.

This was different from the kind of opening segment AEW usually does, but it definitely helped push the story forward. It's going to be interesting to see where Ospreay goes from here now that he has no friends.

Grade: B

Andrade vs. Nick Wayne vs. Jack Perry

Last time in action: Andrade defeated Mark Davis (Redemption), Perry and Wayne lost the Ladder match (Redemption)

Andrade El Idolo was looking to celebrate his big win at Redemption with his first successful National Championship defense against Jack Perry and Nick Wayne.

Jungle Jack stuck El Idolo with a superkick before trying to roll Wayne up. Once Andrade recovered, he managed to hit a suplex on both opponents at the same time. After Perry and Wayne were taken out at ringside, El Idolo posed for a selfie with a fan.

Andrade is not known as a powerhouse, but he had a big power advantage over Perry and Wayne, so even though he had two opponents, he still felt like he was firmly in control.

All three guys brought something different to this match. Wayne provided most of the high-flying antics, but El Idolo and Perry contributed some, too. They put together a fun three-way that had the crowd chanting and cheering almost the whole time. In fact, this was one of the best bouts Perry and Wayne have had in a long time.

The feud between Wayne and Perry that has been developing recently was on full display, and their rivalry may have distracted them from the task at hand. A hot crowd helped add to the excitement as all three competitors pulled out all the stops to steal the show.

El Idolo was able to score the win in the end to retain, but all three guys looked incredible in this match. Go out of your way to watch this one.

Result: El Idolo defeated Perry and Wayne

Grade: A-

Notable Moments and Observations

• The venue looked great. It was on the small side, but it was packed and had a unique look.
• The double suplex from Andrade was a nice spot.
• Perry's diving hurricanrana from the top rope to the floor looked awesome, and the way Wayne followed up and took Perry down right after was great.

Brian Cage, Jake Doyle and Kyle Fletcher vs. Brodido and Mike Bailey

Brian Cage, Jake Doyle and Kyle Fletcher teamed up to take on Brody King, Bandido and Mike Bailey in a trios bout.

Speedball is the No. 1 contender for Fletcher's title, so they started for their teams, but Kyle said he wanted to face Brody instead, so Bailey tagged in the big man. King took him down with a shoulder tackle before being cornered by the DCF.

The babyfaces had a long sequence controlling the heels, but it ended kind of awkwardly. You could tell Bailey and Bandido expected Doyle and Cage to do one thing to set up a move, but it never happened, so they tried to just move on.

This match had some exciting moments, but there were times when it felt like it was just move after move without much selling or storytelling. It was fun, but it definitely could have been better in the first half.

Things picked up a lot after the commercial break. Speedball and Fletcher had a fantastic exchange that was one of the biggest highlights of the match. Bailey scored the win for his team by pinning Doyle.

Result: Bailey and Brodido defeated DCF

Grade: B+

Notable Moments and Observations

• The Brawling Birds gave a quick interview backstage.
• We also got a quick interview with The Don Callis Family. Fletcher and Kevin Knight had more tension.
• Doyle and Cage suplexing King was a good spot.
• Speedball was the star of this match. He had most of the best spots.
