AEW DYNAMITE Third Anniversary Show Preview
Hard to believe, it’s already been three years since AEW Dynamite (TBS at 8pm ET) made its premiere on the TV landscape, and tonight AEW CEO and President, Tony Khan has a major show planned to celebrate and to further along some of the developing, and red-hot storylines. Khan has also promised that the show will go over 15 minutes, so look for a two-hour and 15-minute action packed night.
Emanating live from Washington D.C.’s Entertainment & Sports Arena, all eyes are on what could go down in the tag team match-up where Daniel Garcia will team with his idol, Bryan Danielson, to go up against ROH champ, Chris Jericho and Sammy Guevara.

As AEW fans know, Garcia has been a member of the Jericho Appreciation Society, but as of last week, and after weeks of a building separation, it looks like Garcia may be the next member in Danielson’s Blackpool Combat Club, or will he? Is a swerve coming? And if so on who? Danielson? We’re feeling that Garcia could be playing Bryan and is actually still with the JAS. However, this match also sets-up next week’s showdown between Danielson and Jericho for the ROH championship.
To kick-off the anniversary show, look for MJF to take on Wheeler Yuta. AEW’s bonafide star in MJF, took to Twitter to share: “I was the first match at ALL IN. I was in the first ever Dynamite. I’ll be in the first match for the 3 Year anniversary of Wednesday night Dynamite on @TBSNetwork against Wheelsy. I am @AEW …..as long as @TonyKhan keeps paying up #2024.”
AEW Tag Champs, The Acclaimed will be on hand to celebrate National Scissoring Day, but who will ruin their party? Smart bet is on Swerve Strickland, but could someone, or someones, interfere to start a new feud?

Hangman Adam Page has a singles match against Rush, but something tells us that AEW champ Jon Moxley will somehow be involved given that Page will go against Moxley for the title on October 18th. In addition, Wardlow defends his TNT Title against Brian Cage, and more.
In addition, Andrade El Idolo’s is in social media news this week after his verbal altercation on the platform with Sammy Guevara. This comes on top of his ‘career is on the line’ match for Friday’s AEW Rampage, when he goes up against Dark Order’s 10 to claim his mask if he wins. Will Guevara figure into the ending of the match? Stay tuned.
So, which match are you looking forward to on AEW Dynamite’s third anniversary edition tonight? Comment below.
I was the first match at ALL IN.

time to accept this is becoming a wrestling site (?)
I have visited this site daily for years. I have a visceral reaction every time I see a wrestling article. Can you take a survey and see if your readers want this? I have been clicking on the articles to see what the comments are.
I had no idea this website covered wrestling.
Stop the madness!!!!
I will admit that wrestling contains elements of soap operas, with overwrought drama, a splattering of humor, villains (and villainesses), back-from-the-dead characters (the Undertaker), charismatic good guys (and gals), insane dialogue, preposterous characters, surprising allegiances, ridiculous storylines, some overacting here and there, multiple personalities, and much repetition — and much repetition. However,… Nevermind, of course, wrestling stories belong here! 🙂
Jamesj75…I remember once you said we agree on certain topics. On this one we don’t, especially on what was once MF on soaps. It’s long gone. I just see these guys as the lowest rung of sweaty, muscle bound humanity. I won’t even speak about the women badasses who play the game. And what does that say for those that find it entertaining??
Hi Rose: I think we probably still agree on important topics. I do appreciate your reply here. I’m not trying to sell people on wrestling. I believe I am making a valid point by merely pointing out — tongue in cheek BTW — the similarities of the two genres. Take care, Friend!
Jamesj75…I’m with you on that. When you look at real life it is a giant, big soap opera as well. But not always the endings we like, Maybe MF should start a separate sports page and somehow combine soapiness with it. Lots of characters and drama. I like baseball and basketball. Always lots going on in football, Olympics, and even soccer. And not so much sweaty “manliness” going on except to score baskets and goals.
You take care as well, friend.
Rose, thanks a million for your reply! You’re right: there is much drama and lots of characters in sports, too! I’m a big sports fan, too. I probably watch too much TV/streaming of a variety of things… It’s been fun chatting with you, as always!
Oh Jamesj75, you reminded me of my feelings about many ‘love’ scenes on soaps and (especially) movies. The couples seem to use sex to express everything except love and affection. Sometimes it seems like they’re trying to beat each other up! I guess wrestling isn’t so far of a comparison. That being said, anytime I could wrestle with Billy Miller or Josh Swickard or Nicholas Chavez, I’ll give it a try!
Soaphound, you make great points about “love” scenes on soaps and in the movies. It’s no wonder that, in real life, some have a hard time expressing themselves and interacting with others. (Sidenote: the pandemic did us no favors in that regard.)
Also, you make me laugh, so thank you for that! One man’s (or woman’s) wrestling is another man’s (or woman’s) ___________________ [fill in the blank]! Hey! Maybe there is a wrestling promoter among the readers who would be willing to set up one or all of your suggested matchups… Take care, Friend!
I haven’t really kept up with wrestling since the mid-80s or so, but I’ll take it over 99.9% of “reality” TV anytime.
Yea, been waiting for this for years, who wants to read about some old dull Soap Operas anyway?
Figured my comment might post in such a popular place. Just had to comment on the Robert and Diane chemestry. I think Holly is too young for him, unless it’s just the photo I am seeing.
After month of rumors and reports, Chris Jericho is home on AEW. The moment occurred on last night’s April 1 episode of AEW Dynamite live from Winnipeg, Canada.
Jericho, the pro wrestler/actor/musician has been off AEW programming since a year ago in April, amid speculation he would be returning for one final run in the WWE.
However, last night was a homecoming for Chris, who has been with AEW from the very beginning in 2019. His signing with the company made him one of its top stars out of the gate and he became the inaugural AEW world champion.

In the set-up on ‘Dynamite’ Jericho kicked-off the show as he interrupted Tony Schiavone, who was in the ring getting ready to bring out MJF and Kenny Omega for their AEW World Championship Match contract signing ahead of AEW’s Dynasty pay-per-view next weekend
As Jericho came out to his theme song from his band Fozzy, “Judas” the chants of the chorus got louder. Once he was in the ring, Jericho simply addressed the crows by saying,“Winnipeg … AEW … I’m home.” Then, he dropped the mic and made his exit.
After the show, Jericho took to his Instagram account and showed how he was in the parking garage at the MTs Centre in Winnipeg and how in 50 minutes he was going to shock the world with his return on ‘Dynamite’
Chris was last his ‘The Learning Tree’ faction, but it disbanded soon after he lost the Ring of Honor World Heavyweight Championship to Bandido at last year’s AEW Dynasty pay-per-view.
As an actor, Jericho was seen last week on CBS’ Tracker as villain Virgil Dean and will be seen in the new AppleTV+ series, Margo’s Got Money Troubles which drops on April 15.
So, what did you think of the arrival of Chris Jericho on AEW Dynamite, after a year away? Do you think Chris will be a babyface or heel for his new run on AEW? Weigh-in via the comment section. In case you missed it, and what has been all the buzz for the last 24 hours, check it out below.

TUNE-IN ALERT: ‘Tracker’ Starring Justin Hartley to Feature Chris Jericho as Bad Guy Virgil Dean
This Sunday, a very familiar face from both AEW and the WWE will guest-star on Tracker, America’s top primetime broadcast television show with soap opera alum, Justin Hartley (ex-Adam, Y&R and ex-Fox, Passions).
That’s when none other than Chis Jericho, who has been concentrating on acting roles along with his European tour with his rock band Fozzy will appear in the episode as Virgil Dean.
Jericho has currently been off AEW TV having last appeared in April of 2025 on an edition of TBS’ AEW Dynamite. There have been rumors swirling for months, that Chis was headed back to the WWE, but speculation has run high that he remains under contract with AEW and his contract is frozen.

In the meantime, not only is Chris appearing alongside Justin Hartley in a case of good vs evil on the March 22 episode entitled “Breakaway,” but he will also be seen in the new Apple TV+ series Margo Has Money Troubles which begins streaming on April 15.
In the synopsis for the Sunday, March 22 episode of Tracker, after Baxter (David Ramsey), a veteran stuntman, disappears following a risky stunt, his girlfriend, Laura (Erica Durance), calls Colter (Justin Hartley) to investigate a B-movie set, uncovering shady producers and a trail that leads into a dangerous underground world.
*It should be noted that for the first time, in a few years, Tracker was dethroned as TV’s most-watched show for the ratings the second week of March. That slot was taken over by Marshals, the Taylor Sheridan-backed project featuring the return of Luke Grimes as Kayce Dutton. Tracker did come in at #2.
