Tonight&#8217;s episode is No. 200 for Dynamite.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Khan says the build to All In will begin tonight<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>As part of the interview, Khan said he will reveal some of the matches for August 27&#8217;s All In show at Wembley Stadium on tonight&#8217;s episode.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLooking at the path we\u2019d be on this summer towards All In at Wembley, I always felt tonight in Tampa would be the perfect place to begin match announcements and officially take that next step,\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s perfect timing, the perfect amount of excitement. The 200th episode is important to the network and to the fans. It\u2019s a major milestone for Dynamite, and it happens to be four weeks out from All In.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>AEW has already sold approximately 78,000 tickets for All In.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Khan says record gate won&#8217;t have them &#8220;secondary&#8221; at All In<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Triple H made headlines in the Peacock documentary on Cody Rhodes when he called AEW a &#8220;secondary promotion.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Rhodes said he left AEW due to a &#8220;personal issue&#8221; and WWE COO Paul Levesque (Triple H) indicated that Rhodes\u2019s \u201cpersonal issue\u201d was his desire to be WWE Champion.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo take that gamble again and say, \u2018This is not what I wanted to be; I didn\u2019t grow up dreaming of being the champion and the face of a secondary promotion. I wanted to be the WWE Champion,&#8217;\u201d Levesque said.<\/p>\n<p>Khan responded to Levesque in the Sentinel story.<\/p><div id=\"pwtor-1699999752\" class=\"pwtor-content pwtor-entity-placement\"><div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280 __336x280\" id=\"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>\u201cWe certainly won\u2019t be the secondary promotion at All In,\u201d he said. \u201cWe\u2019re No. 1 in the UK, on TV and with a record gate. I have a lot of respect for Cody. I know these weren\u2019t his words, to be fair, but we\u2019re not secondary in a lot of markets \u2014 for the first time in a long time, WWE has been secondary in a lot of markets. \u2026 I\u2019m proud of where we\u2019re at and we\u2019re not taking a back seat to anybody.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Adam Cole and MJF have surpassed expectations<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Khan also indicated that his plans for the MJF-Cole storyline changed due to the crowd reactions the duo received in their brief run as a tag team.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou hope that it gets hot, but this has gotten red hot, and fans are so excited about it that it\u2019s one of the great success stories in AEW\u2019s history,\u201d Khan said.<\/p>\n<p>Most expected the logical ending of their team to come this past Saturday at Collision, but instead of one partner turning on the other, it seems that the story will continue.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is why I like having ideas and outlines,\u201d he said. \u201cYou can judge where to go next based on the reactions of fans. Fans have grabbed a hold of MJF and Adam Cole and their story\u2026 which is really very captivating.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>RECOMMENDED NEXT: <\/strong><a title=\"Kenny Omega, Hangman Page and The Young Bucks sign multi-year contract extensions with AEW\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/2023\/08\/02\/kenny-omega-hangman-page-and-the-young-bucks-sign-multi-year-contract-extensions-with-aew\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Kenny Omega, Hangman Page and The Young Bucks sign multi-year contract extensions with AEW <\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>OR CHECK OUT THIS AT PROWRESTLING.NET: <\/strong><a title=\"AEW Dynamite preview: The updated lineup for tonight\u2019s 200th episode\" href=\"https:\/\/prowrestling.net\/site\/2023\/08\/02\/aew-dynamite-preview-the-updated-lineup-for-tonights-200th-episode\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">AEW Dynamite preview: The updated lineup for tonight\u2019s 200th episode <\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Did you know that PWTorch VIP membership gives you access to an ad-free version of this website (mobile and desktop versions), an unmatched 35 year library of insider wrestling content in newsletter article and podcast formats, dozens of new VIP-exclusive podcasts throughout the month (that are easily compatible with Apple Podcasts App, Apple Car Play, and many other popular podcast apps), and more benefits.
