Overview
- The go‑home episode of AEW Dynamite, taped in Glasgow on Wednesday, confirmed Jon Moxley and Nigel McGuinness will meet in the Continental Challenge Cup final at All In in Wembley Stadium.
- Jon Moxley beat Claudio Castagnoli by submission and Nigel McGuinness beat Kyle O’Reilly by submission to earn their final spots on the Aug. 26 show.
- Will Ospreay opened Dynamite with an emotional promo about returning from neck surgery and vowed to defeat Kenny Omega for the AEW World Championship at All In, escalating their feud.
- Several short‑term angles were advanced on the Glasgow card, including Mercedes Moné attacking Willow Nightingale’s wrist, a ringside brawl between MJF and Andrade, Don Callis naming Mark Davis for the Casino Gauntlet, Chris Jericho declaring for the Gauntlet, and backstage tension inside the Don Callis Family.
- Coverage notes skepticism that the Moxley–McGuinness final will be a major draw because the bracket outcome felt predictable and McGuinness is working hurt, which could shift marquee interest toward other All In matches such as Ospreay vs. Omega.
