AEW Dynamite Results 5/13 - Ten Man Tag Match, Darby Allin Defends AEW World Title

Welcome to Wrestling Inc.'s results for "AEW Dynamite" on May 13, 2026, coming to you live from the Harrah's Cherokee Center Asheville in Asheville, North Carolina!

Moments after Darby Allin successfully retained his AEW World Championship against TNT Champion Kevin Knight during last Wednesday's "Dynamite" and "AEW Collision" special, MJF confronted Allin looking for a rematch. Allin told MJF that he would only agree to the match if MJF agreed to a Title vs. Hair Match, but Kazuchika Okada confronted Allin just moments after asking for a title shot of his own which Allin agreed to. Instead, Takeshita will be taking Okada's place in tonight's match, he will be challenging Allin for the AEW World Championship. MJF will also be making an appearance on tonight's show with something on his mind to share, with the contract signing for his Title vs. Hair Match against Allin having been set for tonight as of last Wednesday.

The Demand's Ricochet, Bishop Kaun, and Toa Liona will be joining forces with The Don Callis Family to take on Matt Jackson, Nick Jackson, Jack Perry, and Kenny Omega of The Elite, Bobby Lashley and Shelton Benjamin of The Hurt Syndicate, and Jericho in a Stadium Stampede Match at AEW Double or Nothing. Elsewhere on the May 24 pay-per-view event, Christian Cage and Adam Copeland challenge FTR's Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler for their AEW World Tag Team Championship in an I Quit match. Before both of those matches happen, FTR, their ally Tommaso Ciampa, and David Finlay, and Clark Connors of The Dogs will be going head-to-head with The Young Bucks, Orange Cassidy, Copeland, and Cage in a Ten Man Tag Team Match.

Will Ospreay will be in action tonight as he goes one-on-one with The Bang Bang Gang's Ace Austin. Although Ospreay was previously unsuccessful in dethroning Jon Moxley as AEW Continental Champion at AEW Dynasty on April 12, he has sought out the help of Moxley and the rest of The Death Riders to train him over the last couple of weeks on "Dynamite".

Additionally, the brackets for both the 2026 Men's and Women's Owen Hart Foundation Cup Tournaments are set to be unveiled tonight.

We are live! Excalibur, Tony Schiavone, and Taz greet audiences at home before we see MJF walking around backstage. Renee Paquette approaches MJF to ask for his thoughts about Allin challenging him to a Title vs. Hair Match at Double or Nothing, and MJF says nothing. He continues to walk around backstage, with several members of the backstage crew members and wrestlers giving him glances as he passes by.

After the match, Bailey grabs a microphone and congratulates Knight on retaining the TNT Championship against Cage. Knight thanks Bailey and says he's still standing, but admits he couldn't get the job done last week while challenging Darby Allin for the AEW World Championship.

He says he has his date with destiny in their 2026 Men's Owen Hart Foundation Cup Tournament quarterfinals match at Double or Nothing, then says Shibata and Bowens feel slighted. Shibata and Bowens look to go after Ospreay, but The Death Riders make their way to the ring to provide Ospreay with back-up. Outnumbered by The Death Riders and Ospreay, The Opps decide to back down.

We then head backstage, where Renee Paquette catches up with Konosuke Takeshita and Don Callis. MJF approaches and tells Takeshita that he hopes he wins the AEW World Championship tonight, then hands the "Dynamite" Diamond Ring to Callis after Takeshita has left.

After the match, Triangle of Madness continue beating down Windsor and Hayter. Referees try breaking things up, but Hart sprays black mist into one of their faces. With Shida having disappeared from the ringside area, Willow Nightingale, Mina Shirakawa, and Thunder Rosa run out to the ring to come to The Brawling Birds' aid.

Konosuke Takeshita and Don Callis then make their way to the ring. Darby Allin follows. 

The bell rings and Takeshita sends Allin crashing off the ring apron with a big boot. The pair return to the ring, but Allin looks to land a shoulder tackle on Takeshita off the middle rope.

Back from the break, Takeshita delivers a German suplex to Allin off the top rope and goes for a pin. Allin kicks out, but El Clon appears at ringside, opening the door for Callis to hand Takeshita MJF's "Dynamite" Diamond Ring to use. Takeshita throws the "Dynamite" Diamond Ring out of the ring not wanting to use it, but Allin takes advantage and sends Takeshita crashing into the mat.

Takeshita sits Allin on the top rope and joins him up there, but Allin catches Takeshita with a Code Red off the ropes and pins Takeshita.

Allin ascends to the top rope and sets up for a Coffin Drop, but Takeshita gets his knees up and delivers a jumping knee on Allin. He gets him up, but Allin escapes and cinches in a Scorpion Death Lock on Takeshita. He connects with a pair of Coffin Drops on Takeshita and pins him for the win.

Winner (and still) Darby Allin

After the match, Allin demands that MJF come to the ring for their Double or Nothing AEW World Championship Title vs. Hair Match contract signing. MJF obliges, but hesitates to sign the contract.

MJF says he's happy for Allin and hopes he's had fun holding the AEW World Championship that belongs to him, but says there's a small part of him that knows this will be Allin's last time holding the AEW World Championship. He says Allin is a stuntman and says nothing matters anymore than a legacy. He says Allin's legacy will be a kid who had 15 minutes of fame and has had no impact as AEW World Champion, then says the fans will know deep down that Allin just got lucky and was too reckless to stay on top. He says his legacy will be the guy who became an AEW World Champion at 30 years old, then says he'll go down as the greatest of all time.

Allin says only someone like MJF who's vain would think the number one thing in life is legacy. He says he doesn't care about legacy, but rather the present moment and demands that MJF sign the contract so that he can make him a "bald headed b****" at Double or Nothing.

MJF gives in and signs the contract, then rains down right hands on Allin using his "Dynamite" Diamond Ring. He hits Allin with the "Dynamite" Diamond Ring to level him and grabs the AEW World Championship belt, then holds it over his head and stands tall. He drags Allin up the ropes looking to land a Tombstone on him, but Kevin Knight comes to Allin's aid. MJF retreats up the entrance ramp and to the back as Knight helps Allin up and the show goes off the air.
