The parties involved in AEW's post-All Out 2022 media scrum brawl will not be brought to this week's episode of Dynamite, reports the Wrestling Observer.

Dave Meltzer states that suspensions have been handed out in the wake of the fight between The Young Bucks and Kenny Omega, and CM Punk and Ace Steel. Who, exactly, has been suspended is unclear - and there's no word on the length either.

The fight has forced AEW to make several changes to Dynamite. Punk, Steel, the Bucks, and Omega will not be on the show. Neither will backstage staff members Steel and Pat Buck, though whether or not they are amongst the suspended hasn't been clarified. Similarly, others involved in the fracas will not be brought to Buffalo, New York for tonight's show.

Chris Jericho and Jon Moxley have both been pencilled into the show as a consequence of all this. Whether or not the duo will be wrestling or just appearing in segments isn't clear, though neither was originally scheduled for tonight.

AEW has thus far announced only two matches for Dynamite: an ROH Pure Championship bout between champion Wheeler Yuta and Daniel Garcia, plus Best Friends and Orange Cassidy vs. Death Triangle.
