This week’s AEW Dark brings 11 fun matches highlighted by Angelico versus Frankie Kazarian, and The Initiative versus Private Party!
A number one contender is named for the tag titles in a gauntlet match, Sammy Guevara faces Matt Hardy in a tables match, and All Out continues to take shape in a pretty good episode of AEW Dynamite.
Sonny Kiss and Joey Janela take on The Hybrid2 in the main event of another packed episode of AEW Dark.
Cody defends the TNT Title against Brodie Lee, The finals of the Deadly Draw tournament take place, and more on a great episode of AEW Dynamite.
Dark Order challenges for the Tag Titles, Warhorse challenges for the TNT Title, Diamante takes on Hikaru Shida, and Allin teams with Moxley to battle Cage and Starks in a mostly good episode of AEW Dynamite.
Violence erupts as Cody battles Eddie Kingston in a No DQ match, The Young Bucks fight The Butcher and The Blade in a Falls Count Anywhere match, The Inner Circle looks for revenge on Jurassic Express, and more on a very good episode of AEW Dynamite.
Night one of a two-night Fyter Fest has five very entertaining matches with the Women’s, TNT, and Tag titles all on the line!
The final Dynamite before Fyter Fest is packed with lots of good buildup and lots of entertaining matches including Wardlow vs Luchasaurus, Santana vs Matt Hardy, SCU vs FTR, and more!
The Natural Nightmares challenge for the Tag Titles, Arn Anderson picks Cody’s challenger for the TNT Title, Best Friends put their title shot on the line against Le Sex Gods, and more on a very good episode of AEW Dynamite.
A good main event couldn’t really redeem a show where the first hour was pointless and dumb. There were some good things on this RAW, but not enough.
Kane squashes Ricky Starks and Baron Corbin faces Rhyno in a pretty average episode of Main Event.
Despite some of the obvious character-building, the main event made this show. Balor versus Crews was a very good match. Not a classic, but it was a departure from the regular WWE/NXT formula.
