AEW Dynamite Results (6/1/22): CM Punk, MJF And More

By Colin Tessier

Just a few days after the eventful AEW Double or Nothing pay-per-view, AEW will deliver a star-studded episode of AEW Dynamite on June 1.

CM Punk, MJF, The Hardys, and other noteworthy names will be on the show, which will be Dynamite’s debut in Los Angeles.

The results are as follows:

CM Punk and FTR vs. Max Caster and the Gunn Club (Austin and Colten Gunn) (with Billy Gunn)

Dax Harwood and Austin Gunn start the bout and feel each other out. Harwood gains the upper hand and tags Cash Wheeler, and they double-team Austin. The young Gunn tags his brother, who takes the fight to Wheeler. A big back body drop and a dropkick help Wheeler take control. Caster enters the match and gets dobuble-teamed by Wheeler and Punk. Caster lands some blows, but he winds up getting triple-teamed by Harwood. Dax fights his way out of enemy territory, but Austin drags him back and works with Colten to isolate him. Caster tags in and Irish whips Harwood into the corner. Billy Gunn lands a cheap shot when the referee isn’t looking.

Harwood rallies and tries to tag out, but his partners get taken out by their opponents. The Gunns hit him with a double flapjack. Caster and the Gunns keep dominating Harwood, but he perseveres with a German suplex. Both men are down after a double clothesline, and Harwood finally makes the tag to Punk. The new AEW World Champion clears house with a flurry of offense. He launches Wheeler to Colten and Caster at ringside. Punk hits a diving elbow drop, but Billy distracts him and helps Austin get a two count with a roll-up. Punk powerbombs Austin into Billy, and the GTS/Big Rig Combo clinches the win.

Winners: CM Punk and FTR

Punk celebrates with FTR after the match. He grabs a mic and raises the title. He says he’s never done drugs, but he imagines this is what it would feel like. Punk makes it clear that there’s still a long way to go, and he has a lot of work to do. He says his road to success is littered with mistakes, but he’s gonna learn and get better. Harwood says it feels “that good” to do the things Punk hasn’t done. Harwood says his wife and his baby girl are the only things that mean more to him than wrestling. He references Cobb and O-Khan attacking FTR and says he’ll beat them up. Punk brings up NJPW and says, “Forbidden Door, show me who I got.” Hiroshi Tanahashi comes out and stares down Punk.

In-Ring Segment: MJF

“The Salt of the Earth” comes to the ring and says he’s in a lot of pain after he lost to Wardlow at AEW Double or Nothing. He says he’ll talk, but this is Max Friedman talking. He points out that the Warner Brothers Discovery executives are here, so he wouldn’t want to embarrass his boss. MJF says Khan has been trying to hash things out with him for a while, but it’s too little, too late. He says when this company started, it was All Friends Wrestling, so he had to write his own ticket. But he has great penmanship, so he made his own moments. MJF says no one is on his level, everything he touches turns to gold, and he hits grand slams on a weekly basis. He says everyone else can be great, but he has to be perfect because he’s the only one who can carry this company, and he has. He says he hears boos and clapping; he wonders where those fans were when they were calling him unprofessional.

MJF says everyone in the back wants his spot, and they can have it. He says he doesn’t want to be here anymore. He calls the fans uneducated fans and says they don’t know “s—.” He tells them their opinions suck and they change at the drop of a time. He says fans have argued that he sucks at wrestling because he’s not like their favorites. MJF screams that he’s the best, and he’s the only one who makes them feel, and he doesn’t have to do a bunch of bulls— to get them there. He says he’s a generational talent, and says the fans and Tony Khan take him for granted. MJF says he’s the second-biggest minute-for-minute draw in this company. He accuses Khan of not paying him, a guy who’s been here since day one, and paying ex-WWE guys who can’t lace up his boots. He wonders if Khan would treat him better if he was an ex-WWE guy. MJF says the only position Khan should have is behind the guard rail. He says he wants Khan fire to him because he doesn’t want to wait until 2024. He curses Khan out and the show fades to a commercial.
