AEW began its trek toward crowning an interim world champion with a lacking battle royal and all-too-predictable end to Dynamite. Host Adam Silverstein dives into AEW's booking moves around the world title picture following CM Punk's injury [5:35], including the nonsensical decision to feature neither "Hangman" Adam Page nor Wardlow as contenders and the call to introduce a new championship simultaneously. "The Silver King" then covers the first episode of NXT after In Your House [39:45], featuring the surprising return of Apollo Crews in a big spot, a loaded North American title scene, Roxanne Perez winning the inaugural NXT Women's Breakout Tournament and much more.
