“We’re celebrating 200 episodes of AEW Dynamite tonight, and we’re also celebrating an important milestone on our way to the biggest professional wrestling show of all time—AEW All In, August 27th at Wembley Stadium in London. Thank you to all the fans around the world who made it possible and thank you to the wrestlers and staff.”

“Jerry, I gave you a week to get ready for this. So, get out here and take your ass kicking like a man!”

Jerry Lynn walked onto the ramp with a microphone.

Jerry Lynn:

“First of all Jungle, you don’t run the show around here. And as much as I’d like to come to the ring and make an example out of you, I won’t because that would be nothing more than child abuse.

second of all, I don’t run the show around here. And with all the plates and screws in my neck, there’s not a doctor alive that would clear me to return to that ring. But I just so happen to call a good friend of mine who just so happened to wrestle in ECW, who just so happens to still wrestle today. So, what do you say Jungle?”

Rob Van Dam walked onto the ramp and gave Jerry Lynn a high five! RVD walked to the ring and stared Jack Perry dead in the eyes. Jack Perry rolled out of the ring, wanting no part of RVD.

RVD went for a spinning round house kick, but Jack Perry ducked and retreated once more.

Renee Paquette was backstage with Rob Van Dam! RVD:

“Renee I heard Jack running his mouth. I mean, does he know people are listening? Dude, guess what? Next week I want to challenge you for the FTW Championship. And after I beat him and become the new FTW Champion, here’s what I’m thinking. I’ve done this with so many championships in the past. I inflate the value and then I just retire it. But it depends how much fun I have next week wrestling Jungle Jerk. All you have to worry about Jack, is next week, one on one, it’s you and this guy—Rob Van Dam.”

AEW World Champion MJF came to the ring! The crowd chanted “MJF, MJF, MJF!”

MJF:

 “Sounds like we’ve got a couple devil worshippers in the house tonight. I’m a little emotional so if you guys don’t mind, I just want to have a real heart to heart conversation with everyone here tonight and everyone at home.

As some of you may recall I have attention deficit disorder. With that disorder comes a litany of other disorders linked to it and one that I struggle with is called rejection sensitive disorder. Essentially my brain is structured to not regulate rejection-based emotions or behaviors making life sometimes really difficult for me.

To be honest life would have been pretty difficult for me without RSD. There’s a lot in my past you guys don’t know. I’ve been bullied, cheated on, lied to, I’ve been battered, I’ve been beaten up. And frankly a lot of it I blacked out. But there is one thing that I still remember to this day and that is the day those kids walked up to me with their hands filled with quarters at threw them at me and said,

“Pick it up Jew boy.’

To this day I can hear their laughter and I remember saying to myself that day, I had to stab everyone in the back before they had the opportunity to stab me. But I’m beginning to realize that that’s no way to live. Because Tampa, while I was protecting myself, I ended up becoming one of them. I ended up becoming a scumbag myself. It’s true. And to be honest guys, being a scumbag is easy. Making you people hate me is easy.

What’s hard is being vulnerable and being open. That’s hard. And I knew with my disorder that if I opened myself up and if I was Max and you people booed me, it would kill me. But you know what? I’m not scared anymore. I am not scared anymore and that is because of each and every single one of you.

You people taught me that you do care about Max. You people taught me, by God, you’ve got sympathy for the devil. I’m not going to change overnight. I’m still a scumbag, don’t get me wrong. But I am ready to be your scumbag! But there is one person in particular you taught me to think like this. A person who taught me that I can trust.

A person who taught me that I can be vulnerable and yes, even MJF, the devil, deserves a friend. Ladies and gentlemen, I would like to give you a warm round of applause for someone I believe is one of the best wrestlers in the world, one of the best humans in the world, my best friend Adam Cole, baybay! Adam, come on out here.”

Adam Cole walked to the ring. The fans chanted for Adam Cole.

Adam Cole:

 “Max you continue to impress me every day, man. But seriously it’s not just because you’re at such a young age one of the best professional wrestlers in the world, but it’s because of the man you’re becoming. Because I do appreciate you coming out here and sharing your story. But I want you to know you are not alone.

Max for years I was a jerk because I thought that’s what I had to do to success, and I was scared. Max you are becoming the man you are meant to be. These people love you and adore you. They know deep down in your heart there is a good guy in there. So, Max, I want to make sure you know this. Not only am I incredibly proud of you but we are incredibly proud of you.”

MJF:

“I made you a promise that after our match with FTR, I’d give you a shot at the triple B, the AEW World championship. And I gotta tell you I’ve been thinking long and hard on it and I’ve come to the conclusion: you don’t deserve a match. That is, you don’t deserve just any match. You deserve the match. In front of the most historic crowd in the history of our sport, on the most historic night in our sport, in the main event, MJF and Adam Cole, Wimbley, All In! There is no one I would want to make history with more than you. So please sign this contract.”

Adam Cole signed the contract!

Adam Cole: “Max, I love you, man.

MJF: “I love you too, dude.”

Cole and MJF hugged!

Backstage Roderick Strong was shown destroying monitors, angered by what he had just seen. Matt Taven and Mike Bennett approached Strong. 

Taven: “That’s Cole, always forgetting about his real friends.”

Kenny Omega:

 “We’ve got some important news in case you guys don’t have the internet. What’s on your mind, Hangman, tell them.”

Hangman Adam Page:

 “I don’t know if you’ve seen but there’s been a big announcement today that the Elite have re-signed with AEW. So tonight Dynamite 200, we’re so happy to be here, and here’s to the next 200.”

Omega:

 “And whether it be Dynamite, Ring of Honor, Rampage, heck, even Collision, you’re going to be seeing more of us. But until then, goodbye and goodnight. Bang!”
