01:13 We're in August already, guys.

01:18 - Great coup, you know, for Don Callis to have.
01:21 - Scrutin' him heavily.
01:22 - Sure has.
01:23 - Now Jericho, all members of the J.F.,
01:26 they've worked hard, and Jericho seems
01:28 to be casting that all aside,
01:30 taking on the team of Sammy Guevara,
01:32 Daniel Garcia, Garcia who desperately
01:34 kinda have their way with Daniel.
01:37 As Jericho, looking for the line,
01:38 slope and Garcia got the knees.
01:41 - And we're gonna get a tag on either end now.
01:42 - He's flying it big.
01:44 - He's a phenomenal athlete, is Guevara.
01:45 - And now Guevara, good sight.
01:48 Guevara, the torneo over that top.
01:50 Momentum's heavy, frost, splash,
01:51 he's splashing Jericho there to break it up.
01:54 - You can see that as the evening goes,
01:55 and that's coming up tonight.
01:57 - Daniel Guevara, oh, the tension with Dovernitz.
01:59 - The walls of Tequesta.
02:01 - Turns and got that knee in the back of Sammy Guevara.
02:04 - And Guevara, though, and no!
02:06 - Counter just reached up and almost got the pin,
02:12 did Guevara.
02:13 - Yeah, this milestone evening of Dynamite 200.
02:15 Oh, it's a big start!
02:17 The leg is hooked and oh no, Daniel Garcia!
02:20 - Playing in those heavy chops, as you mentioned, Taz.
02:23 - Daniel Garcia, and Tequesta there to break it up.
02:26 - At risk for sure.
02:28 - Shoot and start!
02:30 - Inside the ring, Judas Effect, oh!
02:32 - Touch the gloves here!
02:33 - And no!
02:35 - He's gonna have a draggy slam.
02:36 - Sammy, Sammy, Sammy stopped Tequesta.
02:37 - Oh, Don Callis!
02:38 - He's got Floyd, he's got the back.
02:39 - Don Callis has grabbed the back!
02:42 - Oh boy, Chris got a big decision here, doesn't he?
02:44 - Don Garcia!
02:45 - Well, he went for the win!
02:49 - He chose the Don Callis family.
02:52 - A little bit perplexed there,
02:53 looks a little bit like he didn't wanna do it,
02:55 but he had to do it.
02:56 - We're celebrating 200 episodes of AEW Dynamite tonight,
03:00 and we're also celebrating an important milestone,
03:02 AEW All In, August 27th at Wembley Stadium in London.
03:06 Thank you to all of you fans around the world
03:08 who've made it possible,
03:09 and thank you to the wrestlers and staff.
03:12 - Excuse me, Chris, I wanted to get a word with you
03:13 of the reaction to what happened up there in the ring.
03:15 - What the hell's going on around here?
03:17 Next week, Jericho Appreciation Society,
03:19 mandatory meeting, you're gonna be there.
03:22 - Got it.
03:23 - Jack Perry!
03:25 - A man that paved the path for Jack Perry.
03:28 - Yeah, yeah, no.
03:29 - About cheaters, talk about someone being a thief
03:32 for the BS he pulled a couple of weeks ago, overhook.
03:34 - Jerry, I gave you a week to get ready for this.
03:40 Take your ass kicking like a man.
03:42 - Definitely passed his prime, obviously,
03:44 and, well, Jerry, mic in hand.
03:46 - You don't run the show around here.
03:48 I won't, because that would be nothing more
03:50 than child abuse.
03:51 - I don't run the show around here.
03:53 With all the plates and screws in my neck,
03:56 there's not a doctor alive who would clear me
03:58 to get back into that ring.
03:59 I just so happen to call a good friend of mine
04:02 who just so happened to wrestle in ECW.
04:05 So what do you say, Jungle?
04:07 (crowd cheering)
04:10 - Rob Van Dam!
04:21 Jack Perry!
04:21 The second and son!
04:25 - An incredible athlete.
04:27 And just as Jerry Lynch said.
04:29 - Oh, Jack Perry!
04:31 - Matchups.
04:33 - Oh, Jack Perry!
04:36 With the chair, Rob Van Dam!
04:39 - And you could see,
04:41 he'd treat himself to Rob Van Dam.
04:45 - Whoa!
04:46 - Jack Perry turning tail.
04:50 - Anything goes, match!
04:52 - Chris Jericho getting called out by Daddy Magic.
04:56 - Trent Bereta!
04:57 - But over the course of the last 200 episodes,
05:02 that's a cracking Trent Bereta with a chair,
05:04 giving him a shiner.
05:05 - Add blood, combustible elements in this match.
05:08 - One of the most incredible fighters
05:10 that I've ever been around in my life.
05:12 Now when you're talking about John Monkley,
05:13 Tadge, you can speak on this.
05:15 When you ever got--
05:16 - Here with that, that's exactly--
05:17 - Oh, watch out!
05:19 - The bell was rung and now Petzl also!
05:21 - Anything goes, every man for himself.
05:23 Three way, Jones.
05:24 - Luffy table, one of the--
05:25 - Wow.
05:26 - It doesn't matter to you.
05:27 - Oh, oh, oh!
05:28 - And--
05:29 - Oh, oh!
05:30 - It's a dangerous--
05:31 Oh, wait, Moxley coming out for the cutter!
05:34 - And a miss.
05:34 - And a miss, Petzl though.
05:37 - A backstab at that.
05:38 Driven into his spine, but Trent Bereta comes flying in!
05:42 - He just used him with his knees.
05:44 - And now Moxley!
05:45 - Oh, what a rough way to spend a Wednesday night.
05:47 - He's in the air!
05:49 - Could be looking for the end.
05:50 The pile driver!
05:52 Trent Bereta!
05:52 (crowd cheering)
05:55 - It's a go!
05:59 - Oh, sweet.
05:59 - Couldn't hear it over the noise of the crowd.
06:02 - I don't know what--
06:02 - Face of Petzl!
06:03 - On a cut right through that mask.
06:05 - Trent Bereta, up to the apron.
06:08 - He's got it all through the table!
06:11 - Not a bad idea.
06:14 - Teamwork but then--
06:15 Oh, no, he's sinking!
06:17 (crowd cheering)
06:19 - Just a straight shoulder.
06:22 - About anything.
06:23 - Oh, wow, here we go!
06:26 - Transitions!
06:27 - And a double!
06:28 - Stole!
06:29 - Two and oh!
06:30 - Hit it!
06:31 - And Moxley!
06:32 (crowd cheering)
06:35 - Into the spine!
06:36 - Oh, to the cover!
06:38 - Tried his back, hit the tats very hard.
06:40 - To the tats!
06:41 - No!
06:43 - Petzl there to break it up.
06:44 - Petzl on fire!
06:44 - Trent accelerates, thrusts, hit.
06:47 - Moxley king!
06:48 - Elbows being exchanged!
06:50 - Petzl, coming in.
06:53 - Moxley, no!
06:54 - Wow!
06:55 - The paradigm shift with a knee strike!
06:57 - Feel it here!
06:58 - Oh!
06:59 - Wow, great job by Trent!
07:01 - Jumping on the cover!
07:03 - Anything goes, dynamite to Andre,
07:05 but Moxley's not done yet!
07:06 - Right now he's probably out.
07:08 - And Claudio Castagnoli fading.
07:11 - Wait a minute!
07:12 - Oh!
07:12 - Chuck Taylor wants Cassie intercepting!
07:15 - I looked off the bottom of the pit and fell,
07:17 but, oh God.
07:18 - Hey, this is Trent Moretta's work,
07:21 even after all that!
07:22 - Inside the ring, Claudio Castagnoli very unsteady.
07:25 - Step behind here, watch out!
07:27 - No!
07:28 - Oh, the arch, punch in the ring!
07:30 - Well it looked like this didn't accomplish
07:32 a God damn thing.
07:33 So how about Friday night on Rampage,
07:36 to Daly's place in Jacksonville,
07:39 and Trent Moretta's in the parking lot!
07:41 - Trent Moretta!
07:43 - They won the parking lot fight in Daly's place!
07:46 EW World Champion for the man who seemingly
07:49 has had a change of heart.
07:50 - Welcome back to Dynamite 200.
07:52 Now with the element of surprise,
07:54 Rob Van Dam, what brought you here to Dynamite tonight?
07:58 - Well Renee, I heard Jack runnin' his mouth.
08:01 Does he know that people are listening?
08:03 He's doing that?
08:04 Dude, guess what?
08:06 Next week, I want to challenge you
08:08 for the FTW Championship.
08:10 I've done this with so many championships in the past.
08:13 Originally, unintended level,
08:15 then I just retire it.
08:16 I've done it so many times, look it up.
08:18 But, depends on how much fun I have next week.
08:20 All you gotta worry about, Jack,
08:22 is next week, one on one,
08:24 it's you and this guy, Rob Van Dam.
08:29 - He's gonna be a crowned on Dynamite 201!
08:31 It might happen next week, man!
08:33 - NJM!
08:37 - And thus, they've become a very, very formidable team.
08:41 - NJM!
08:42 - Sounds like we got a couple devil worshippers
08:47 in the house tonight.
08:48 Some of you may know, I have something,
08:50 it's called attention deficit disorder.
08:53 I wish my teachers felt that way.
08:55 Disorders that are linked to it,
08:56 and one that I struggled with more than anything.
08:58 My brain is structured differently.
09:00 I cannot regulate rejection based,
09:03 making life sometimes really difficult for me.
09:06 Life would have been pretty difficult for me without RSD.
09:09 I had to stab everyone in the back
09:11 before they had the opportunity to stab me.
09:14 But that's no way to live.
09:15 I ended up becoming a scumbag myself.
09:18 What's hard, Tampa, is being vulnerable and being open.
09:23 That's hard.
09:24 I'm not scared anymore!
09:28 You people taught me that you do care about Max.
09:35 My God, you got sympathy for the devil!
09:37 I'm still a scumbag, don't get me wrong.
09:40 I am ready to be your scumbag!
09:43 (audience cheering)
09:46 - He's a scumbag!
09:48 - I'm your what?
09:49 - He's a scumbag!
09:50 - There is one person in particular
09:53 who taught me to think like this more than anyone else.
09:56 The person who taught me that I can be vulnerable.
09:59 One of the best human beings in the world, Adam Cole, baby!
10:03 (audience cheering)
10:05 Along with everyone watching Collision,
10:08 expected person-
10:09 - No, I'm talking about Adam Cole.
10:11 - Oh.
10:11 - You continue to impress me every day, man.
10:15 Because I really do appreciate you coming out here
10:17 and sharing your story.
10:19 I wanna make sure that you know you are not alone.
10:23 Max, these people, they love you!
10:27 You are one of the best damn pro wrestlers on the planet.
10:29 As much as I thoroughly enjoyed you performing
10:32 verbal fellatio on me,
10:34 I called you out here because I made you a promise.
10:36 I'd give you a shot at the Triple B.
10:39 And I gotta tell ya, I've been thinking long and hard on it.
10:43 You don't deserve a match.
10:44 (audience cheering)
10:47 You deserve the match.
10:51 MJF Adam Cole!
10:53 Wembley, all in!
10:56 So please, sign it.
10:58 - Sign it!
10:59 - Change of heart.

11:19 (upbeat music)
11:20 - What?
11:21 - Probably strong.
11:22 - Max, he's had a change of heart.
11:24 He's done it.
11:25 - Classic Cole, he's always forgetting
11:26 about his real friends.
11:28 - Look at that, Mike Bennett, Matt Taven of the kingdom.
11:32 MJF will defend the title against Adam Cole.
11:35 ♪ Carry on my wayward son ♪
11:39 ♪ Don't you cry no more ♪
11:43 - Tony Sabati, there would be no AEW
11:46 earlier this year winning the Blood and Guts match.
11:49 (upbeat music)
11:51 - Well, this trio poses a very interesting
11:54 - I don't think I've said that many times.
11:56 You know, everyone.

12:57 - Omega, up the legs of Sutton and Singh.
