They do quite often do eliminators as the opener from memory. MJF/Cole opened a Dynamite which The Elite and BCC main evented for example. Just recently Joe/Dustin main evented but only after they teased doing it as the opener. I'd guess Hobbs/Mox has a big melee after it with the BCC and Callis Family if the plan is Anarchy in the Arena between the two groups, in which case it would make sense to have Fletcher have finished his match early in the night. I think on Dynamite, unlike PPV, the main event and opener are quite interchangeable tbh, feels like we get as many memorable matches open the show as close them and there always seems to be more eyes on the start of the show for whatever reason. I think the show starting with Swerve's music hitting is a fitting way to start the night too. Not sure the graphics always mean much though, matches that look like they're the main event haven't ended up being so from what I recall, so Swerve could easily main event. I just think they might want to start the show off with their new champion being the first thing you see. I agree about the opener being important but optics matter and Swerve is the world champion, not Moxley. Personally I'd have him open with a promo AND close with the match He is, but the first time the IWGP title belt has ever been defended on AEW TV is a bigger deal than a match with Kyle Fletcher in it. Especially one that has built up anybody amount of heat in the last week.

I agree, also the top rated segment of the show is always the first two quarters, at least 95 percent of the time Open with Swerve, your champ, imo

I just hope Mercedes doesn't cut a promo doing that same old stale as hell dance she does. I never realized that I don't like that dance until I saw that IG post of her dancing to her theme.

And it isn't, so it's whatever.

The opener and main event are often booked as equivalent slots anyway. I wouldn't think too much about it.
