Adam Cole retains his AEW TNT Championship following interference from Josh Alexander, a member of Don Charis’s faction, in his title defense against Kyle Fletcher on “AEW Dynamite.” The match began with some disruption as Rocky Romero and Trent Beretta attempted to sneak past Cole while he stood on the ring apron, but they were stopped by Roderick Strong and Kyle O’Reilly from the Paragon stable. After the break, Cole dominated briefly, landing elbows and countering Fletcher’s Panama Sunrise attempt. However, Alexander’s unexpected attack on Cole led to a disqualification, ending the match. Post-match, Alexander continued assaulting Cole until Brody King rushed in to protect the champion. It’s worth noting that both Alexander and King later participated in AEW’s four-way qualifier for the international title.
Fan Take: This chaotic finish highlights the intense rivalries and alliances shaping AEW’s TNT Championship scene, keeping fans eagerly guessing what’s next. The involvement of key figures like Alexander and King adds layers of intrigue, potentially setting up thrilling future battles for the title and elevating AEW’s competitive spirit.
