AEW Dynamite from Edmonton, Canada served as a crucial stop before the April pay-per-view. In a major development, Kyle Fletcher will be unable to defend his TNT Championship due to injury, forcing Tony Khan to schedule a Casino Gauntlet match at Dynasty to crown a new champion. Meanwhile, Willow Nightingale successfully defended her TBS Championship against Queen Aminata.
The main event featured an unannounced battle between United Empire and the Death Riders, intensifying ongoing rivalries. Earlier in the night, Andrade El Idolo, Mark Davis, and Konosuke Takeshita defeated Darby Allin, Bandido, and Jack Perry, with post-match chaos involving the Don Callis Family and the Young Bucks. Doc Sampson also addressed Kenny Omega's diverticulitis, confirming he is in the best shape of his life.
