Preview & Predictions for AEW Dynamite:
On tap for tonight's episode, Darby Allin is set to have a promo segment to speak on his big win over MJF on last week's episode, which netted him his first ever AEW World Championship. Will it be a celebration, or will someone crash the party? Interestingly, Allin is advertised for that promo segment separately from him also being advertised to defend the AEW World Championship against Tommaso Ciampa, rather than the two just naturally bleeding into each other. That may indicate Allin will have his promo earlier in the night and save the title match for the main event. I expect Allin to obviously retain the title over Ciampa (as it would be wild for him to lose it this quickly) and to make this a regular thing with frequent title defenses, possibly also following up with "The Jet" Kevin Knight, who also said he was eyeing the title. If someone attacks Allin, though, it won't be Knight, but a heel.
Will Ospreay is set to face off against Mark Davis, whom he used to team with as part of United Empire. Davis went on the attack last week to piledrive Ospreay, who will no doubt be looking for some revenge. My money is on Ospreay winning unless there is a grander story to tell about The Don Callis Family getting involved.
Mina Shirakawa will also be in action with Hikaru Shida. This came about after Shirakawa is suspicious about seeing Shida's kendo stick positioned near wehre "Timeless" Toni Storm had been attacked, indicating Shida might be responsible for putting her friend and tag team partner out of action.
