Kicking off this week’s Dynamite with MJF & before he can say anything he gets interrupted by Daniel Garcia & MJF says he’s glad these people love Garcia but tells him to tread lightly. Garcia starts by thanking MJF for saving him next week and says that since it’s Buffalo, everything here is his business. Garcia points to his family in the front row and says MJF will probably say something bad about this city or his family but Garcia is here to do something that nobody in the back has done to MJF before and that is say nice things.MJF tells him to go on as Garcia says he was watching MJF every single week as the longest reigning AEW World Champion of all time making history. They had a conversation where MJF saw Garcia as more than being a lackey and a background character but as the same as himself a pillar of AEW. MJF told Tony Khan if he had enough wins he’d challenge for the AEW World Title and when he did it was the most embarrassing moment of his whole life. That match motivated Garcia to go on the best run of his career and now he’s somebody that these people can respect and believe in. Garcia doesn’t want to settle to be the pillar but to be the backbone and the future that AEW is built on, and for that, he wants to thank MJF. Garcia tells MJF after all that if MJF talks shit back he will look 2 faced and have Buffalo go against him.MJF says he didn’t come out here to talk trash to these fine people in Buffalo but the reasons are to shamelessly shill Forbidden Door where he is challenging someone who looks like a poorly drawn comic book character in Hechicero before promoting his return to Collision on July 6th. His 2nd reason was to ask Garcia to come out as he had a question for him but before that he wanted to say thank you and shake Garcia’s hand. MJF says everybody else was jealous but says none of them were talented enough to take his spot but he knows one guy who’s getting closer and closer as he’s looking at Garcia. MJF says he gave Garcia the shot because he earned it and he reminds him of himself as two young very talented guys from New York. MJF says with all due respect he whipped Garcia’s ass without breaking a sweat however since then Garcia has grown exponentially. MJF says maybe it’s time Garcia got one more shot at the king but not just any shot, and proposes MJF vs Daniel Garcia at Wembley Stadium for All In. Garcia starts saying that it is huge before he gets interrupted by International Champion Will Ospreay.Ospreay says he appreciates Daniel Garcia and loves how he’s been racking up win after win to get a title shot for the International Title and says Garcia has lasted longer than he has in bed before apologizing to his girlfriend. Ospreay says next week Garcia has the title shot but he sweetens the deal by not only putting up the International Title but the AEW World Title and putting out his hand which Garcia shakes and agrees. MJF looks upset in the corner & MJF says that’s a big opportunity for Garcia and says he needs to focus on that and leaves.
We cut to AEW World Champion Swerve Strickland & Prince Nana in the back as Strickland is asking why Ospreay is offering title opportunities before the match and he doesn’t get him for putting the cart before the horse. Strickland says Ospreay better have his head on straight for tonight’s match.
