The WhatCulture Wrestling podcast delivers a detailed review of the May 7, 2026 AEW Dynamite episode, highlighting a mix of emotional tributes, high-stakes matches, and controversial booking decisions. The episode opens with a heartfelt, 10-bell tribute to wrestling legend Ted Turner, praised for his pivotal role in legitimizing pro wrestling on television through TBS and TNT. The hosts reflect on Turner’s legacy, contrasting his genuine support for wrestling with the industry’s long-standing stigma and the more transactional approach of WWE. The review then dives into the match card, with particular praise for Orange Cassidy’s victory in a chaotic Double Jeopardy match, which earned him a future AEW World Tag Team Championship opportunity. Kazuchika Okada’s dominant win over Bryan Keith is noted as a strong but underutilized performance, while the main event sees Darby Allin defeat Kevin Knight in a thrilling, risk-laden contest that cements Allin’s status as a true fighting champion. The episode culminates in a shocking stipulation: Darby Allin demands MJF’s hair in a future match, setting up a major storyline for Double or Nothing. The hosts express excitement for the upcoming PPV, despite concerns about AEW’s over-reliance on mid-card filler and inconsistent women’s division representation.

Tribute to Ted Turner & AEW’s Legacy
“There's one man who knows this better than anyone else. A man who arrived in the studios of TBS in 1987 and had become one of the faces to what wrestling means to TBS. Brings out Sting, who gets a lovely reaction.”
Double Jeopardy Match & Orange Cassidy’s Victory
“If Cassidy won, he would get an AEW tag team title match with a partner of his choosing.”
Darby Allin vs. Kevin Knight – The Fighting Champion
“It's going to be funny. And again, I'm stepping on the dick of the preview. But if you go back and watch all these matches, there's like one massive risk taken by a champ at Brodie King and now Kevin Knight.”
MJF vs. Darby Allin: The Hair Match Stipulation
“I want what you hold the most dear, something you fluted turkeys to get sewed onto your head. I want your hair.”
Critique of AEW’s Mid-Card & Women’s Division
The hosts express concern over AEW’s over-reliance on mid-card matches (noted as 10 in one night) and the lack of meaningful women’s programming, despite a strong tag team match between Sheena and Statlander vs. Ali Cameron and Mina Shirakawa.
“I want what you hold the most dear, something you fluted turkeys to get sewed onto your head. I want your hair.”
“There's one man who knows this better than anyone else. A man who arrived in the studios of TBS in 1987 and had become one of the faces to what wrestling means to TBS.”
“This is the exact opposite when Derby's like this because he nailed Kevin Knight here, except he didn't with that low pay because how has there never been a really ugly clash of heads?”
