Looks like we lost yet another of the legends, Road Warrior Animal passed yesterday. Those boys lived hard, really hard, back in the 80's. Making it to 60 made him one of the fortunate ones. Greatest tag team of all time and there is no argument.
They started the #1 contender tournament for the World Title on Dynamite yesterday with all 4 first round matchups and I really like what they are doing with Omega. The long drawn out entrance followed by the squash over a face. They are planting the seeds for a full heel turn (assuming this happens in the finals of the tourney at Full Gear against Page) which should lead to a future title match against Moxley.
The Lucha Bros singles match was a masterpiece. Sucks Rey Fenix got injured. Omega vs Pentagon is gonna rock too.
I think Full Gear is the best AEW PPV card from top to bottom so far Kingston vs Moxley - I QUIT - World Title Cody vs Darby Allin - TNT Title FTR vs Young Bucks - World Tag Titles Omega vs Page - #1 Contender Hardy vs Sammy G - Hardy Compound Match Jericho vs MJF - MJF joins Inner Circle w/ win
Moxley/Kingston was maybe the most brutal I quit match as I could stomach. But lots of good MMA submissions too. Moxley training with Hager is paying off. Never see a match like that in WWE as extreme as they can get. Two of the toughest guys in wrestling. Jericho/MJF, Cody/Darby, Omega/Page, FTR/Young Bucks were great. MJF, Darby, Sammy are the future.
Tony Khan says tonight’s Dynamite has “big surprises that will shift the balance of pro wrestling” my best guess is the NJPW partnership is happening.
Biggest Dynamite so far tonight. Best long term booked fued for the title. Tonight Kenny Omega is champion.
Tony Khan just slayed on Impact, I dig this. Mox vs Callihan has gotta be the next hardcore PPV match
