Two more competitors have advanced to the semi-finals of the AEW World Title Eliminator Tournament.
In the opening bout of tonight's AEW Dynamite, Bryan Danielson faced off against Dustin Rhodes. The American Dragon controlled the early portions of the match, targeting Rhodes' lower body with submission holds. Dustin would fight back, but it wasn't enough to overcome Bryan who would eventually put The Natural away to advance in the tournament.

The second tournament match was between Eddie Kingston and Lance Archer. The Murderhawk Monster was in control until a scary moment in which he landed on his head after attempting a moonsault. He was checked by the doctor before rolling into the ring and quickly being rolled up by Eddie for the pin.
