AEW Dynamite Results 11/27 - Ring Of Honor World Championship On The Line, Continental Classic Kicks Off

Welcome to Wrestling Inc.'s results for "AEW Dynamite" on November 27, 2024, coming to you live from the Wintrust Arena in Chicago, Illinois!

Chris Jericho will be putting the Ring of Honor World Championship on the line for the first time since dethroning Mark Briscoe in a Ladder War on the October 23 edition of "Dynamite" as he defends against Tomohiro Ishii. Not only did Ishii unsuccessfully challenge Jericho for the title during his first reign on the November 23, 2022 episode of "Dynamite", but the two men came face-to-face during last week's edition of the show when Ishii made sure Jericho signed the contract for tonight's match despite the latter trying to get out of putting pen-to-paper.

The 2024 Continental Classic kicks off tonight, as The Hurt Syndicate's Shelton Benjamin goes one-on-one with the aforementioned Mark in a Blue League Match, while Ricochet goes head-to-head with one third of the reigning AEW World Trios Champion Claudio Castagnoli and Brody King squares off with archrival Darby Allin in a pair of Gold League Matches. While Kazuchika Okada currently holds the Continental Championship, it will be on the line in the Continental Classic as the two people who score the most points in each league over the course of the coming weeks will secure the right to face each other. The winner of the match will be crowned the Continental Champion at AEW Worlds End, although whether Okada will be featured remains to be seen.

We are live! The show kicks off with a video recapping the events of AEW Full Gear this past Saturday.

Excalibur, Tony Schiavone, and Nigel McGuinness then greet audiences at home as The Hurt Syndicate make their way out to the ring. MVP says he's standing between two of the best athletes in the world between Bobby Lashley and Shelton Benjamin. He says when he offers his business card, it's an opportunity for wrestlers to change their life. He says smart wrestlers will accept while wrestlers who choose not to end up like Swerve Strickland did at Full Gear courtesy of Lashley. He then calls Lashley the most dangerous man in AEW and a walking armageddon.
