In one of the most insane visuals in AEW history, this week's Dynamite closed out with the sight of a flamethrower-wielding Darby Allin. Yes, really. As part of this chaotic closing scene, we also had the return to AEW TV of Tony Khan.

The main event of Dynamite saw Bryan Danielson defeat Satnam Singh by DQ thanks to interference by Jeff Jarrett and Jay Lethal, with this leading to a post-match beatdown on Bryan by those heels and the Elite. From there, the video screen cut backstage as we saw a car driven by Tony Khan - who had been kayfabe injured since taking a Tony Khan Driver from the Young Bucks last month - pull up to Bakersfield's Mechanics Bank Arena, where the flamethrower-carrying Darby made his way out of the vehicle, fist-bumped the AEW President, and headed into the arena.

Having rushed back into action after breaking his foot and being hit by a bus(!), Allin didn't get physical here but instead grinned manically as he fired up his flamethrower on the Dynamite stage. All of this allowed Danielson to throw Nicholas Jackson from that stage and through a table, as the build continued for Anarchy in the Arena at Double or Nothing this weekend.

Of course, at Double or Nothing, it will be Darby, Danielson, and FTR taking on the Young Bucks, Kazuchika Okada, and Jack Perry.
