Kenny Omega successfully defended his AEW International Championship against Claudio Castagnoli, Brody King, and CMLL’s Mascara Dorada in the main event of Wednesday’s four-hour “Fyter Fest” edition of AEW Dynamite. Despite an impressive showing by Dorada, who even managed to pin Omega briefly following a stolen one-winged angel move, Omega ultimately retained his title. The match was intense, with all four wrestlers brawling outside the ring at times, including King suffering a bleeding cut on his forehead. Castagnoli focused his attacks on Omega’s stomach, highlighting Omega’s previous struggle with diverticulitis. Omega countered several attacks, including a top turnbuckle superkick from Castagnoli and Dorada escaping a finisher attempt before Omega eventually secured the victory. After the match, AEW World Champion Kazuchika Okada confronted Omega, hinting at a future showdown between the two that could even the score in the upcoming Texas event.
Fan Take: This outcome solidifies Omega’s dominance as the AEW International Champion and sets the stage for an electrifying rivalry with Okada that AEW fans have been eagerly anticipating. Their potential clash promises not only high-caliber wrestling but could also elevate AEW’s international prestige in the wrestling world.
