AEW Dynamite Grand Slam Mexico airs with stacked card

entertainmentAug 6, 202655980

AEW aired a special Grand Slam Mexico edition of Dynamite from Arena México featuring a bloody main event between Will Ospreay and Mark Davis, multi-man trios action, and several high-profile segments across a roughly 2½ to 3 hour card. The episode ran live on TBS and HBO Max in the United States and was available internationally on MyAEW.com. Commentators and attendees praised the Arena México crowd and called the in-ring work exceptional, with multiple posts singling out the opening matches and Ospreay versus Davis as highlights. The show included notable moments like PAC wearing an England football shirt during the event and a promo-heavy build that set up an upcoming Collision match: TBS Champion Maya World and Hyan versus Persephone and Hikaru Shida. Several viewers noted the absence of Kenny Omega from the live crowd and praised Max Caster for a fiery promo. AEW thanked CMLL and the live audience after the broadcast, and the promotion will carry momentum into Collision and future Dynamite episodes.

PAC wearing an England football shirt to AEW Grand Slam Mexico to remind the crowd we beat 'em at home

"We're 2-0 down to the Mexicans at half time! If you don't wanna wear the shirt, fucking take it off! There's thousands of kids out there who'd die to put that fucking shirt on!"

Considering how little Mexico lose at Azteca, that's fantastic heeling.

Good heel shit. Pac rules. Put belts on him please.

I was like, "He is not going to make it out of the arena if he keeps that on"

This show was better than some of the PPVs this year. Attitude-era crowd.

How is every episode of AEW Dynamite the best episode of #AEWDynamite? 🤔

For your consideration tonight: Cómo es que cada episodio de AEW Dynamite es el mejor episodio de AEW Dynamite?

Been watching pro wrestling in the US since 1982 (I've written elsewhere about seeing Sgt Slaughter entering in a camo limo). Lived through a few wrestling droughts. These last seven years have been an awesome time to be a fan. I doubt this golden time will last, and I'm appreciating these moments.

I hope Grand Slam Mexico has an even longer overrun than last week.

Grand Slam Mexico delivers for the second year in a row to no one’s surprise. 3 hours of incredible spectacle with a stellar crowd, showcasing the art of professional wrestling in the Cathedral of Lucha Libre. #AEW wins again!

It’s a “free” PPV but people will find something to complain about

Kristin1

Is it really 3 hours long?

Rebecca Skinner1

AEW only gets to hold a show in the Cathedral of Lucha Libre once a year, which is still insane for an American company that's less than a decade old, so they make it count. Also Brodido are champs again!

If your review of AEW Grand Slam Mexico isn't like 80% talking about how incredible the wrestling was on this show, I probably don't need to hear your opinion on pro-wrestling again. #AEW

I mean LOOK at this fucking pin! The ref could count to 10. There’s nowhere for Mercedes to go. Willow can hold her there until her neck gets tired. #AEWDynamite

Hangman's reaction after Brody calls him "the good." Oh yeah, that's a man who is clearly doing well. He won't mess this up at all. 😆 #AEWDynamite #GrandSlamMexico 🤼‍♂️

This place (Wrestlesky) is beginning to feel a lot like Twitter before I left. Praise of nearly every show (justified) then right back to weird negativity that presupposes AEW needs help. It’s odd & stupid. Stop it. Dynamite has been 10/10 the last two weeks and will be excellent again tonight.

I think going to a Grand Slam Mexico in person is at the very top of my wrestling bucket list right now. This show was an all-timer last year and they're doing it again tonight. Even through the TV, you can feel this atmosphere. I NEED TO BE IN IT. #AEWDynamite
