They share their thoughts on the TBS Championship match, the International Championship match, and the FTW Championship match. They express their opinions on Chris Jericho's win and the Women's World Championship match between Thunder Rosa and Tony Storm. The AEW Dynasty pay-per-view delivered a mix of good and bad matches, but overall it met expectations. The standout matches were Will Ospreay vs. Bryan Danielson and the ladder match between The Young Bucks and FTR. Swerve Strickland became the new AEW World Champion, which was a surprise to some. The crowd was burnt out by the end of the event, possibly due to the placement of the ladder match before the main event. AEW has a track record of delivering with their pay-per-views, and this event helped set up future storylines and build anticipation for the next pay-per-view, Double or Nothing.
