Mike Tyson Saves Chris Jericho On AEW Dynamite

“The Baddest Man on the Planet” Mike Tyson and “The Demo God” Chris Jericho have put the past behind them and formed an alliance.

It all went down on latest edition of AEW Dynamite on TNT.

At one point during the show, The Inner Circle came to blows with MJF and his cronies, aka The Pinnacle.

The Pinnacle seemed to have the upper hand, until boxing legend Mike Tyson made the save.

Tyson last appeared on Dynamite back in May of 2020 when he got into a wild altercation with Jericho. Luckily for Jericho, Tyson doesn’t hold a grudge, and the two men shook hands in the ring while they celebrated with the rest of The Inner Circle.

In case you missed it, AEW president Tony Khan announced Tyson’s appearance in a recent interview with Sports Illustrated.

“He made a huge impact last year at Double or Nothing, and we’re at a point where we can bring him back in front of our fans. The fans who have come to the shows in Jacksonville have added so much to AEW, and it’s important for me that our fans get to see him live. We’re excited to have Mike back,” Khan said of Tyson’s return to the world of pro-wrestling.

Check out Tyson and Jericho’s reconciliation in the clip below.

“The Baddest Man on the Planet” Mike Tyson is returning to AEW Dynamite for the first time since his altercation with Chris Jericho last May.

AEW president Tony Khan confirmed the news in a recent interview with Sports Illustrated.

“He made a huge impact last year at Double or Nothing, and we’re at a point where we can bring him back in front of our fans. The fans who have come to the shows in Jacksonville have added so much to AEW, and it’s important for me that our fans get to see him live.

AEW provided more details via press release on social media on Tuesday.

It ain’t his first rodeo, but Wednesday’s Dynamite will mark Tyson’s first AEW appearance in front of a live crowd.

Kris Statlander And Trent Return From Injury On AEW Dynamite

Kris Statlander and Trent returned from injury on tonight’s AEW Dynamite.

The main event of tonight’s show was an Arcade Anarchy Match featuring Miro and Kip Sabian vs. Orange Cassidy and Chuck Taylor. Part-way through the match, Penelope Ford got involved, but was quickly put down when Kris Statlander popped out of an arcade machine and attacked her.

Statlander has been out of action since last June with an ACL tear.

Near the end of the match, a familiar van approached Daily’s Place with Trent jumping out of it. After getting a kiss from his mom, Sue, Trent joined the fight and went right at Miro — the man who put him on the shelf. Trent has been away since December due to a partially torn pec.

Taylor powerslammed Sabian off the stage and through some tables to pick up the pinfall victory for his team.

After the match. Cassidy, Taylor, Trent and Statlander came together for a big hug.

AEW Star John Silver To Be Out Of Action For 4-6 Weeks

AEW star John Silver of The Dark Order is expected to miss at least one month of in-ring action after suffering a shoulder injury.

Silver suffered a shoulder injury during this week’s AEW Dynamite main event, which saw Darby Allin retain the TNT Title over Silver. Allin revealed the injury during a post-show promo praising Silver, and Silver later confirmed the injury on Twitter.

In an update, Silver took to Twitter this morning and announced that he will be out of the ring for around 4-6 weeks. The injury will not require surgery as there is no major damage.

“Bad news: I’ll be out about 4-6 weeks,” Silver wrote. “Good news: I don’t need surgery and there is no major damage”

Brandi And Cody Rhodes To Star In New TNT Reality Show

AEW stars (and real life married couple) Cody and Brandi Rhodes are set to star in their very own reality show on TNT.

A trailer for the upcoming “Rhodes To The Top” aired during the latest edition of Dynamite.

AEW later released more details via a press release.

“Tonight’s action-packed episode of “AEW DYNAMITE” delivered another special announcement for soon-to-be parents Cody and Brandi Rhodes. TNT has ordered a new unscripted series, ‘Rhodes to the Top,’ from Warner Bros. Unscripted Television in association with Shed Media, that will go inside the lives of Cody and Brandi as they navigate their growing family while building AEW’s global wrestling empire,” the company said.

“Each 30-minute episode will take viewers behind-the-scenes as the powerhouse couple manage their ever-busier lives inside and outside the ring, all the while surrounded by a colorful and often hilarious motley crew of wrestlers, family and friends who both support and test them at every turn,” the release continued. “Married in 2013, Cody and Brandi have been on an unprecedented path to wrestling greatness, but will now face their newest and possibly biggest challenge yet.”

Brandi and Cody were regular cast members on the now cancelled E! reality show “WAGS Atlanta,” so this won’t be the couple’s first foray into the world of reality TV.

Britt Baker And Thunder Rosa Battle In A Wild Unsanctioned Lights Out Match On Dynamite

The main event of last night’s AEW Dynamite: St. Patrick’s Day Slam was Britt Baker taking on Thunder Rosa in a Unsanctioned Lights Out/Anything Goes Match. The long rivalry between the two AEW stars hit a climax at the end of the show.

Thunder Rosa picked up the pinfall victory after hitting a thunder driver off the apron and through a table. The wild match saw both wrestlers get busted open — Baker, in particular. Along with chairs, tables, and a ladder, thumbtacks were also introduced into the match with Baker taking a powerbomb on them at one point in the bout. Rosa picked up the pin fall victory after hitting a thunder driver off the apron and through a table.

AEW Women’s World Champion Hikaru Shida was seen watching on a monitor in the back, so it’s possible the winner of this match may take her on in the near future.

After her win, an emotional Rosa spoke to Tony Schiavone on the AEW Dynamite Post-Show.

“I’m very emotional right now,” said Rosa, while trying to hold back tears. “This means everything to me. As you guys know, I come from nothing. And seven months ago I came here [from NWA] to make a statement: and that was to put women’s wrestling on the map.”

She continued, “And tonight, with blood, sweat, and tears, I just showed you that women should be valued everywhere. And I’m very proud of this.”

Rosa, still under contract with NWA, thanked AEW fans for embracing her and believing in the Thunder Army.

“Thank you everybody for believing in me and the Thunder Army.”
