Don Callis thinks his relationship with Kyle Fletcher is art.

Kyle Fletcher boasted the fact that he may have ended Dustin Rhodes’ career, as well as Adam Cole’s. Then Don Callis said that Kyle Fletcher is art, and that brought attention to the covered painting in the ring.

Don Callis said that he spent the last 2 days painting and he still had oil paint on his fingers. Then he got Kyle Fletcher to admit how badly he wanted to see the art before it was revealed.

This painting was bold, to say the least, and some may say it was a bit homoerotic. Either way, it certainly brought a heel reaction from the Cleveland crowd.

Only time will tell what is next for Don Callis and his family. Obviously, they are getting a ton of heat along the way, and they are loving every moment of it.

Mercedes Mone has a new challenger for one of her 8 titles.

The August 6 episode of AEW Dynamite went down at the Wolstein Center in Cleveland, Ohio. That included a big match to determine a new challenger for the TBS Title.

This week on AEW Dynamite, Queen Aminata vs. Skye Blue vs. Alex Windsor vs. Billie Starkz took place in a 4-way TBS Qualifier match. Of course, everyone in this match brought their A-game to the situation.

Athena was on hand to stand in Billie Starkz corner, so Toni Storm came down to support Alex Windsor. This match included some back-and-forth action before they went to commercial break. Billie took control of the match during that time and applied some punishment to Windsor.

Sky Blue and Queen Aminata were taken out on the outside, which left Starkz and Windsor to compete in the ring. Athena tried to get involved, but Toni Storm stopped her. Then Windsor got the pinfall before Mercedes Mone came out to confront her new challenger for the TBS Title.
