Tonight's episode of AEW Dynamite (August 26, 2026) emanates from OVO Hydro in Glasgow, Scotland and will air starting at 8 p.m. ET on TBS and HBO Max.
It's Wednesday, and you know what that means - results, match winners, promo segment notes and other major developments from All Elite Wrestling will be added below as Dynamite airs.
Preview & Predictions for AEW Dynamite:
On tap for tonight's All In: London go-home episode, Swerve Strickland battles Jack Perry; Kyle O'Reilly faces Nigel McGuinness and AEW Continental Champion Jon Moxley takes on Claudio Castagnoli in the semifinals of the Continental Challenge Cup; MJF makes an appearance; and fans will hear from AEW National Champion Andrade El Idolo.
Andrade's promo will probably be in direct opposition of MJF's appearance. My guess is they're just advertising that twice to get both names on the marquee. They'll talk about how they're going to beat the other and win the Casino Gauntlet match from the starting positions and such.
Jack Perry has some momentum on his side, but I highly doubt he will beat Swerve Strickland, unless something happens where all the different trios teams involved in this massive cluster get involved and Perry is able to capitalize, but AEW isn't typically booked in the traditional WWE ways of doing that, so I think we'll see Perry put up a good fight, but lose to Swerve. I do not anticipate any direct appearances from The New Day as theorized as Swerve's potential partners, as I think they'll show up at the pay-per-view itself instead as their debut.
The two semifinals matches are interesting bouts which will surely be a lot of fun. Nigel's injury could put him out of the tournament if they deem necessary, but I'll be going with him over O'Reilly if the injury isn't bad enough to pull him. I'm far more certain of the other outcome, as I cannot picture Jon Moxley losing to Claudio Castagnoli in this scenario. Mox retains the title heading into All In and likely retains there, too.
