New World Champion Adam Page competed in his first singles match since winning the title and more on the July 23 episode of AEW Dynamite.
Less than 2 weeks after defeating Jon Moxley in a brutal Texas Death match at All In, Page faced Deathrider Wheeler Yuta in a singles match to kick off the show. Additionally, Will Ospreay provided an injury update, and a tag team tournament began which will determine the new number one contenders to The Hurt Syndicate’s titles.
Excalibur, Tony Schiavone and Taz were on commentary for the show.
