Sit Down Shut Up Mark Out
Kenny Omega Is AEW World Champion! | Dynamite Delivers, Kyle Fletcher Wins Gold & Andrade Catches Fire
Ep. 117
•
The allegations are true.
Blade Daily and special guest Books and Bodyslams are shameless Kenny Omega fans, and this episode is an unapologetic celebration of Omega's AEW Men's World Championship victory over MJF. If you came looking for objective journalism... you have made a terrible mistake.
But there's plenty more to celebrate from one of AEW's strongest episodes of Dynamite in recent memory.
The crew dives into Kyle Fletcher's AEW International Championship victory, what the loss means for Konosuke Takeshita, why Andrade is connecting with audiences like never before, and the surprising success of a Women's Casino Gauntlet that actually advanced multiple storylines. (We know. We were shocked too.)
Plus, the hosts discuss why this Dynamite felt like a major step forward for AEW's momentum and what it could mean heading into the next chapter of the company's biggest stories.
Whether you're a fellow Kenny Omega believer or you're just here to hear us get carried away, pull up a chair and join the conversation.
Topics include:
- Kenny Omega defeats MJF to become AEW World Champion
- Why the title match delivered
- Kyle Fletcher wins the AEW International Championship
- What's next for Konosuke Takeshita?
- Andrade's growing popularity with AEW fans
- The Women's Casino Gauntlet finally moves stories forward
- Why this was one of the best episodes of AEW Dynamite in months
