Takeshita gives the middle finger to Okada.

The opening match of All Elite Wrestling’s 2026 Dynasty pay-per-view was The Young Bucks (Matt Jackson & Nick Jackson) versus The Don Callis Family’s Konosuke Takeshita and Kazuchika Okada.

There was a breakdown between Okada and Takeshita as they started elbowing each other, but they quickly got on the same page.

There was a point in the bout when Matt Jackson shoved Okada into Takeshita, and Takeshita tried to retaliate, but he ended up delivering a knee strike to Okada. Later on, Okada tried to hit one of the Young Bucks with a Rainmaker, but it was ducked, and he hit Takeshita.

The backend of the bout saw Takeshita allow The Young Bucks to hit the Meltzer Driver on Okada. He grabbed a hold of Nick Jackson’s leg, but then let him go so he could perform the move. After the Bucks got the win, Takeshita gave the middle finger to Okada.
