Three new champions crowned during Dynamite: Grand Slam

Sep 22, 2022 - by Steve Gerweck

Dynamite: Grand Slam offered three title changes last night at Arthur Ashe Stadium with the AEW World, Tag Team, and ROH titles all changing hands.

The night started with Chris Jericho adding his eighth world title to his collection after he defeated Claudio Castagnoli for the ROH World title. Jericho hit a low blow and the Judas Effect to win. The man formerly known as Cesaro ran with the title for just two months.

The Acclaimed finally got their hands on the AEW World Tag Team titles when they beat Swerve Strickland and Keith Lee for the gold with some help from Billy Gunn. The Acclaimed came close to winning the titles at All Out earlier this month but came up short, only to win the rematch last night. The win ends Swerve In Our Glory’s 70-day reign. Safe to say, there was a lot of scissoring going on last night!

And finally, Jon Moxley reclaimed the AEW World title after he beat Bryan Danielson for the vacant title. This is Moxley’s third run with the gold and wins it just 17 days after he lost it to CM Punk at All Out.
