The highly-anticipated rematch between AEW World Champion “Hangman” Adam Page and Bryan Danielson kicked off the first AEW Dynamite show on TBS. The three judges at ringside were Paul Wight, Jerry Lynn, and Mark Henry to render a decision if the match went to a time limit draw.
Both men were bloodied and Page tried to win the match with the Buckshot Lariat about 25 minutes in. However, Danielson collapsed and avoided the move. Moments later, Danielson scored a close near fall after hitting the running knee.
Almost 30 minutes into the match, Danielson went for a pin after a Gotch style piledriver but Page kicked out. At 29 minutes into the match, Page won after hitting the Buckshot Lariat.
