AEW Dynamite held their weekly show tonight on TNT with fans in attendance at Daily’s Place in Jacksonville. During the first hour of the show, Hangman Page prevented The Young Bucks from advancing in their tag team turmoil match which could’ve secured them a shot at the AEW World Tag Team Championships at All Out. When Nick and Matt Jackson confronted Page about it backstage, Matt tossed a drink in his face and kicked Page out of The Elite.
