The first AEW PPV I ever ordered was AEW Dynasty last year, and was in the building for it this year. Like most of the AEW PPVs I've watched it was a tale of two shows - there's the first two thirds where thing tend to move quickly, and then the final third where the … Continue reading AEW Dynasty Thoughts

What did I watch, what was good, what was bad, which men and women were the best and what matches and moments stood out. Man, did a lot change in this year.

Along with some objectively bad decision making in lots of areas AEW is going through a bad momentum phase right now where … Continue reading Review – AEW Full Gear

He almost died while going through surgery and recovery for his injury earlier this year, … Continue reading No More Dean Ambrose?
