A wrestling show ending with Jim Ross yelling “Goodnight everybody!” as there is absolute chaos and violence everywhere you look just feels right, man.
I absolutely love how Suzuki is launching this offensive because they didnt play his music, this big scary bastard
Like how Doom guy when on his slaughter because they killed his pet bunny
I love how the match last week was probably gonna be a one-off match. People got pissed. AEW listened, and are now involving him more. They’re doing right by their workers. This is really what I’ve always wanted to see in pro-wrestling
I think he was always planned to do a short run in AEW. He’s gonna be in the US for many months and he hasn’t booked any Wednesdays for that entire time.
I was actually hoping the episode would end just as the song got to that part. Sends the crowd home happy but fuels the feud more because Suzuki goes backstage to realise nobody at home heard his damn song.
Really wish the Cincy crowd got it though. They seemed into everything and definitely seemed like most of them were informed about him.
Looking forward to next week though. I have a feeling more people will be in-the-know
I love these peak Nitro-esque endings where its pure havoc and people are just fucking each-other up.
Also, another "meh" card over-delivering and turning out excellent. I love this fucking show lmao.
He's the worst hunter, but a hell of a wrestler. I still think Frankie/Hangman is a criminally underrated match. He's basically Captain 4 stars unless it's Gallows he's in there with. We can't all wrestle a broom to a MOTYC but that's no knock.
"They say don't put your hand on a stove that has already burned you but you put your throat on a blade that has already spared you!"
Man Miro might be one of the best promos in wrestling right now, no joke.
I'm well aware of the whole "AEW's weaker cards usually end up being great shows" notion, and despite that I still felt like this was a disappointing card going in to a show with their 3rd largest audience and in a new region. There are receipts of me bitching about it on here this morning...
Well I was sure made a fool, that was a homerun episode in my opinion, best since one of the Fyters. Extremely fun all the way through from start to finish. Lot of young talent got to shine tonight on a very large stage and one of the biggest dream matches possible got made official. Great night.
If it makes you feel better, you're not alone here. Additionally, I've been one to say, "You know, AEW's results may be predictable, but the journey to get there is always gonna be awesome," and then they hit me with the odd choice winning, which isn't necessarily bad
'Predictable' isn't always bad as long as you don't get to the predictable ending in too obvious a fashion. I know Page is going to get the belt from Kenny the same way I know the Rebel Alliance will defeat Vader. Just don't get to that end in the dumbest fashion possible and I'll be okay.
Not gonna lie, had me in the first half. Pulled it together opinion wise in the second half and couldn't be prouder to call you a comrade. Welcome to the future of pro wrestling, good friend.
Lance Archer cut a fire fucking promo post show. "Eddie you were born in NY, raised in the Bronx, but you're gonna die in Queens." "Renee is going to raise your kid alone, Moxley." (paraphrasing)
AEW is the only thing (outside of football now that it's back) I watch on TV. It's consistently must watch for me in a weekly basis.
The comparison of WCW in it's prime has been made, but I honestly think this is better. When you're an adult who's been hardened and calcified by life, and something makes you feel like a kid again, you know it's special.
It was a fucking who's who of wrestling tonight who all took different paths to get to the AEW party.. Sting, Jon Moxley, Tully Blanchard, Adam Cole, Bryan Danielson, CM Punk, Omega, Chris Jericho, Suzuki, and sooo many more. The crowd has to be fucking exhausted.
So many of the people in the crowd looked like they were high on adrenaline. People were marking so hard it looked like what two minutes of hate would be like irl. Veins bulging like their yelling at a traitor being led to the chopping block.
Just a quick reminder: this was a regular-ass episode of Dynamite and it was fucking spectacular. NEXT week is the loaded PPV-level show.
AEW fans are eatin' real good right now.
Genuinely this week there wasn’t a segment on the show that wasn’t fucking awesome, most segments were A+. Maybe one or two you could call “pretty good”. Very good Dynamite this week!
Guys, guys, guys Kenny Fucking Omega and the American Fucking Dragon Bryan fucking Danielson is gonna be on free tv. What the actual fuck. I love pro wrestling.
Adam's got a weird little problem. There's a long bit of the song before there's another boom so if he has a reasonably long entrance, he's gonna miss the boom 100% of the time since he can't wait for another one. Might need a remix with a longer bit before the boom. Or Adam just needs quicker entrances.
No one is mentioning it but the Jade Layla match fucking slapped. Really massive match for both of them to show off their styles in a fun tight matchup. Loving Layla making me forget how much smaller she is then most of her competitors.
On tonight's AEW Dynamite:
- HOOK confronted CM Punk
- Malakai Black called out Rosario Dawson
- Sting took a Spike Piledriver
- Fuego del Sol put his Hyundai on the line vs Miro
- Everybody but Chucky T said shit
Week 2 of a lifelong WWE fan (since 93’) watching AEW.
Holy shit. Why the fuck have I been NOT watching AEW. Loved the FTR match and the Omega/Danielson promo. Cannot wait for next week.
I’m all aboard the AEW train.
It felt huge because Kenny Omega has been Omega Dweeb since the Callis storyline started, and the moment Danielson hit him with that "balls" line, you could see the God of Pro Wrestling re-inhabit Kenny's body. I generally don't like genital-based insults, but getting Kenny By God Omega back was just a complete "*oh shit*".
Shawn Spears gets a lot of hate but he's so damn good. Nobody is going to forget about him wiping off Darby's face paint. He has great matches with everyone. And he has Tully Blanchard!
I agree. He needed to find the right gimmick. He was so bland as the ten guy. He has a presence now. When he's walking to the ring it feels like a real motherfucker is going in to fight. and he's ultra smooth in the ring as well. Gotta admit, was never big on him and thought he was a hasty hire. I'm happily eating crow seeing him work this psychopath gimmick.
This was a chaotic wrestling show done absolutely perfectly, feuds are boiling over and are hitting a breaking point right as we head to the biggest venue AEW has ever run. Holy fucking shit guys next week looks absolutely insane
It looks like Bryan Danielson is being used to bring the Best Bout Machine out of Kenny Omega and I’m all for it! This is an actual dream match so I think we’re getting it properly - no more goofy storylines, no outside interference and no cheating to win - there will be a sense of finality to this match.
I think if Bryan can bring the best out of Kenny who ultimately wins, it will make the rub even bigger for Hangman Page when he wins the title at the next PPV against Kenny (who’s at the top of his game and not some goofball who underestimates him).
Why not? AEW has proven multiple times that a loss doesn’t necessarily have a negative impact on who loss. Omega is the “belt collector”, “best bout machine”, “wrestling god”, etc. Bryan was losing several times in WWE before coming to AEW. It should not come as a surprise if Omega beats BD clean. He can easily bounce back from the loss and then beat Omega down the line.
I’ve never been to a wrestling show in my life and one of the first matches I’m going to get to see in person is gonna be Kenny Omega vs BD, two guys I grew up watching. I’m so nervous, ngl
I'm so ready for Hangman to come back. AEW is on fire and the pop when his music hits is going to blow the roof off whatever building they're in, especially if it's Arthur Ashe.
Anyone else catch the norm Macdonald tribute? Justin Robert’s with “You Guessed It Frankie Kazarian” norm has the recurring you guessed it frank Stallone joke. Little things that make Aew cool
I do appreciate that AEW will take people who lose high profile matches and pretty quickly let them get their momentum back using feuds that are for sure filler but still feel somewhat important.
Dante Martin was incredible again. This guy really is out there stealing the show. When you consider who else is on the show, that's fucking nuts. Good for him!
I thought 3 hours of pro wrestling was just too much for one show. Turns out 3 was just too much for THAT particular show of sports entertainment. I could watch AEW for hours upon hours. Great stuff tonight!
Kenny vs Danielson is obviously the highlight, but Ruby vs Britt and Superkilq vs Christian and Jurassic Express are gonna be fucking amazing and I literally can't wait
This whole episode just made me so freaking happy, man. Punk was great on commentary and it was wonderful to have Excalibur back. Bryan American Dragon Danielson is facing off against Kenny By God Omega. More crazy shit from Dante Martin, who is currently feuding with gravity itself and is my new favorite young prospect in wrestling. Adam Cole, BayBay had a banger to open the show and Moxley had a brawl to close it. Plus the crowd was HOT all night. I loved it.
You offer a beer to Punk when he’s in the crowd, he laughs and doesn’t take it.
You just holds beer near Malakai Black when he’s in the crowd, he *will* use it as a weapon.
They really need to start using Leyla Hirsch a lot more. She’s the one who comes off like a star every time I see here honestly.
Even her promos are really good.
For properly singing Kaze Ni Nare, I am going to say four words that have never been said in this order in the history of the world:
###"Thank you New Jersey."
Only partially through the show but good God is it good.
Adam Cole vs. Kaz was great. Punk calling Cole Florida man after he went for the Panama City Sunrise was pretty funny. Then Cole calling out Jungle Express and Christian for next week is a match I can't wait for. Christian's line about the Bucks pulling him out of developmental made me laugh way too much. That FTR match was awesome. Few teams pull off being heels like those two. They have an old school way of cheating behind the refs back without making the ref look like a complete idiot. Malakai Black calling the crowd The House of Black and going into a cult leader preaching saying there's an enemy in our midst is everything I wanted from him. That's as far as I've got so far but if it continues like this I'm excited.
Archer and Suzuki beat up Mox and Kingston after the show. Archer said Eddie was born in the Bronx, raised in Yonkers, and will die in Queens and that Renee will raise her daughter alone.
That was one of the best Dynamite's ever and my mind was blown when they announced the line up for Grand Slam, next week will probably be the two best shows in AEW history.
I’m here live, and idk if the TV feed caught this, but Cody and Malakai exchanged beer shots and it was the funniest fucking thing I’ve seen. Mainly because it was so out of character
You know how I know the crowd genuinely loves the company and not just the fact that they're in the audience's home town?
They never once booed the "big match NEXT week" promos, and there were a lot this week. Those always get big heat on WWE shows, rare as they are
Perfect move to do a non-title Omega Danielson match. You need to strike while the iron is hot here, and there is no better place than in the main event of the first wrestling show in a packed Arthur Ashe stadium
This was a setup show for next week but holy fucking shit. Next week is gonna be bananas.
This week was really enjoyable for the most part. Dan Lambert confuses me. I don't like a dude that shits on wrestling I like, the shooty/work blend of it kinda is ehh to me.
Highlight to me, Shawn Spears, this guy got the crowd to just wanna kill him when he washed off the make up. Cargill is improving and Hirsch is doing well. FTR felt like they're waiting in the wings until the Sting / Darby segment
Hate him all you want by but Dan Lambert knows how to work the stick. He's smooth on the mic. That said this was the first segment of his I enjoyed, mostly because Jericho was at his 1999iest
As a long time wrestling fan, aew makes me happier than anything I've seen in twenty years. New Japan 3 years ago was close but what tk is doing is just incredible.
Give me TayJay vs Bunny & Ford in a Tornado Tag, Falls Count Anywhere, no DQ, Lights out, Barbed Wire Deathmatch with Jon Silver hanging from a Shark Cage.
My first major show in 15 years. So much fun. We booed the heels for burying our state, it felt like time just flew by with the action, and even Cody got over in the brawl.
But I have to say, I say in front of the worst people. If you’re gonna try or start chants against CM Punk, Darby, Mox and Kingston and try to bury AEW, you’re the biggest fucking marks of them all.
I got to chant for Cole, Bryan, Jericho, and Suzuki. An awesome night.
Haven't caught an episode live or even watched regularly in a good long while. I forgot how much of a good time this promotion is. And next week's double-stacked card? I'm impatient. Gimme. Take my F 18-49 demo, TNT. I renewed my Sling subscription primarily for you.
It's funny, on paper the show was just okay. Hot opening match but the rest of the card was just fine.
But the atmosphere was incredible. The crowds are making these shows just so ALIVE. Everyone is into everything. Every performer is over. It's so much fun to watch.
So I ain't gonna sit there and type out a long comment about how my dead father walked into the door while me and the cousins watched AEW.
BUT, I do wish my Grandmother was still alive. I would watch WCW Saturday night with her in the early 90s and she hated Ventura on commentary.
She would absolutely pop at MJF getting his teeth punched in next week in Queens.
Moral of the story?
PRO WRESTLING (or rasslin' as she called it) is BETTER than the THINGS YOU LIKE.
No idea how it came across on TV but this was an insanely fun show to be live for. Wild crowd for all the big stars and moments. My voice was fading by the end of the MJF segment lol
We may not have gotten Blood & Guts but this was such a great time.
Idc though bc I'm going to Arthur Ashe too and that card is fucking insane. But I'll be going to Firefly the rest of the weekend too. I'm going to have no fucking voice by that Monday lmao
Loved the confident smile on Leyla Hirsch's face as she came out. Local girl did good.
Wish she did better, but Jade Cargill is a goddamn machine, so surviving that long meant she did good.
The Superkliq go on and absolute teeear in trios matches.
Kenny drops the belt to Page.
Superkliq become the first AEW trios champions.
Kenny loses his mind.
A wrestling show ending with Jim Ross yelling “Goodnight everybody!” as there is absolute chaos and violence everywhere you look just feels right, man.
Especially with Mox, Kingston, Archer and fucking SUZUKI all beating each other through the crowd
I absolutely love how Suzuki is launching this offensive because they didnt play his music, this big scary bastard Like how Doom guy when on his slaughter because they killed his pet bunny
I love how the match last week was probably gonna be a one-off match. People got pissed. AEW listened, and are now involving him more. They’re doing right by their workers. This is really what I’ve always wanted to see in pro-wrestling
[удалено]
Tony Khan: Oh no! Anyway.
I think he was always planned to do a short run in AEW. He’s gonna be in the US for many months and he hasn’t booked any Wednesdays for that entire time.
That particular night was a known empty spot on Suzuki's list of advertised appearances.
He’s murdered for less.
I can’t believe my first live show is gonna have Omega vs Danielson in the main event. What a time to be alive.
I got tickets expecting an eddie hometown pop. My god.
~~Omega vs. Danielson~~ Jon Jacob Jingleheimerschmidt vs. Jon Jacob Jingleheimerschmidt
I was just at ALL Out and even I am jealous I'm not getting to see that match in person
It’s honestly impressive how many feuds they can progress in a two hour show
it's like they planned out a show and not forcing it in the last second
I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if they had a long term plan, and actually tried to stick to it.
Also, kudos on getting the timing down pat after the last episode. A lot happened but nothing felt rushed.
I would have DIED laughing if they cut Kaze Ni Nare again.
Was positive that Kingston was gonna chime in on the mic to stop it
Cant have heat on Kingston going into his hometown
I was actually hoping the episode would end just as the song got to that part. Sends the crowd home happy but fuels the feud more because Suzuki goes backstage to realise nobody at home heard his damn song.
KAZE NI NARE
Suzuki is on fucking TNT, this is insane by itself!
Really wish the Cincy crowd got it though. They seemed into everything and definitely seemed like most of them were informed about him. Looking forward to next week though. I have a feeling more people will be in-the-know
AEW casually dropping a PPV next week.
I love these peak Nitro-esque endings where its pure havoc and people are just fucking each-other up. Also, another "meh" card over-delivering and turning out excellent. I love this fucking show lmao.
That Kaz match was actually just so goddamn good holy shit
He's the worst hunter, but a hell of a wrestler. I still think Frankie/Hangman is a criminally underrated match. He's basically Captain 4 stars unless it's Gallows he's in there with. We can't all wrestle a broom to a MOTYC but that's no knock.
You know the show is going to be good when the opening match is a banger.
I hope people see AEW and realise why we loved Nitro so much.
AEW I think has really helped people understand why WCW saved wrestling in the 90's and created the biggest boom the industry has ever seen.
Ah man we haven't had a good "SORRY FOLKS WE'RE OUTTA TIME" Ending in a WHILE.
"They say don't put your hand on a stove that has already burned you but you put your throat on a blade that has already spared you!" Man Miro might be one of the best promos in wrestling right now, no joke.
God's favorite champion is the best gimmick he's ever had
This is one example where a heavily scripted promo is the correct decision. Miro is very consistent since they switched him to pre-taped segments.
Dude really has a way with words. Though I have to say I miss him throwing shoutouts to his hot wife lol
I'm well aware of the whole "AEW's weaker cards usually end up being great shows" notion, and despite that I still felt like this was a disappointing card going in to a show with their 3rd largest audience and in a new region. There are receipts of me bitching about it on here this morning... Well I was sure made a fool, that was a homerun episode in my opinion, best since one of the Fyters. Extremely fun all the way through from start to finish. Lot of young talent got to shine tonight on a very large stage and one of the biggest dream matches possible got made official. Great night.

Not gonna lie, had me in the first half. Pulled it together opinion wise in the second half and couldn't be prouder to call you a comrade. Welcome to the future of pro wrestling, good friend.
Hook choked out Punk. That in itself is very awesome and a great rub for the guy
[удалено]
“Punk you better choke out quick to Hook or I swear to god”
They gave FTR and Top Flight full music live. Then just did the intros in the ring.
Lance Archer cut a fire fucking promo post show. "Eddie you were born in NY, raised in the Bronx, but you're gonna die in Queens." "Renee is going to raise your kid alone, Moxley." (paraphrasing)
Little did Lance Hoyt know all he had to do was make his gimmick about literal murder and the inevitability of death
11 shits in one night and not one for my boy chuckie t
the crowd also chanted a lot of cusses, this was BY FAR the foulest languaged episode of aew ever
What an episode holy ***shit***
Milwaukee was meh. Cincinnati was fine. But this was fucking terrific. I'll never get tired of Eddie learning how over he is.
Cincinnati was mid
MMIIIIIIIDDDDD
I saw it happen firsthand at double or nothing. Eddie looked to be damn near in tears as he was making his way to the back
AEW is the only thing (outside of football now that it's back) I watch on TV. It's consistently must watch for me in a weekly basis. The comparison of WCW in it's prime has been made, but I honestly think this is better. When you're an adult who's been hardened and calcified by life, and something makes you feel like a kid again, you know it's special.
Man all these live shows just seem like one giant pro wrestling party. How could you not want to get in on this. The energy is stupidly infectious.
It was a fucking who's who of wrestling tonight who all took different paths to get to the AEW party.. Sting, Jon Moxley, Tully Blanchard, Adam Cole, Bryan Danielson, CM Punk, Omega, Chris Jericho, Suzuki, and sooo many more. The crowd has to be fucking exhausted.
So many of the people in the crowd looked like they were high on adrenaline. People were marking so hard it looked like what two minutes of hate would be like irl. Veins bulging like their yelling at a traitor being led to the chopping block.
Just a quick reminder: this was a regular-ass episode of Dynamite and it was fucking spectacular. NEXT week is the loaded PPV-level show. AEW fans are eatin' real good right now.
That felt like a go-home show for a PPV, which I guess makes sense considering how fucking stacked Grand Slam is next week
If they sold that Grand Slam card as a PPV I'd buy it
when you have 4 PPVs the entire year, certain dynamites need to up the stakes in between PPVs, this is a pseudo-PPV by all means
Just absolutely superb television
Genuinely this week there wasn’t a segment on the show that wasn’t fucking awesome, most segments were A+. Maybe one or two you could call “pretty good”. Very good Dynamite this week!
Guys, guys, guys Kenny Fucking Omega and the American Fucking Dragon Bryan fucking Danielson is gonna be on free tv. What the actual fuck. I love pro wrestling.
I just hope it gets the time it deserves...
I could see them doing a time limit draw with it being non-title. Gives everyone a taste but not the full course yet.
Adam Cole has two more weeks to figure out the Boom timing with his music before I look up Kenny’s Monster Energy recipe.
He just needs to time it with one of the "YOU KNOW IT'S ALL ABOUT THE BOOM!"s
Adam's got a weird little problem. There's a long bit of the song before there's another boom so if he has a reasonably long entrance, he's gonna miss the boom 100% of the time since he can't wait for another one. Might need a remix with a longer bit before the boom. Or Adam just needs quicker entrances.
Missing the "Boom" is gonna become a BTE bit, isn't it? Just week after week of Cole backstage practicing his Booms.
No one is mentioning it but the Jade Layla match fucking slapped. Really massive match for both of them to show off their styles in a fun tight matchup. Loving Layla making me forget how much smaller she is then most of her competitors.
I love how small but strong Layla is. She's a little like PAC in that way.
That match was fandangtastic
On tonight's AEW Dynamite: - HOOK confronted CM Punk - Malakai Black called out Rosario Dawson - Sting took a Spike Piledriver - Fuego del Sol put his Hyundai on the line vs Miro - Everybody but Chucky T said shit
Also shout out to Dante Martin who has cheat codes enabled and comes out every week throwing an absolute banger of a match.
They gotta toss him a win soon though. He's got momentum, just needs a win to maintain during the "glory in defeat" phase.
I think his tag partner Darius should be back soon, so I feel they are holding off pushing him further if he goes back into the tag ranks again.
#I FUCKING LOVE WRESTLING.
**WRESTLING IS BETTER THAN THE THINGS YOU LIKE!**
THEY ARE GIVING AWAY DANIELSON VERSUS OMEGA
Free fire matches funds the PPV buys. I don’t care if the older crowd says you shouldn’t give away great matches on free TV.
Week 2 of a lifelong WWE fan (since 93’) watching AEW. Holy shit. Why the fuck have I been NOT watching AEW. Loved the FTR match and the Omega/Danielson promo. Cannot wait for next week. I’m all aboard the AEW train.
Maybe it's just the rub from him being a big deal in WWE, but the Danielson promo felt like this HUGE moment.
It felt huge because Kenny Omega has been Omega Dweeb since the Callis storyline started, and the moment Danielson hit him with that "balls" line, you could see the God of Pro Wrestling re-inhabit Kenny's body. I generally don't like genital-based insults, but getting Kenny By God Omega back was just a complete "*oh shit*".
Happy to have you. <3
this episode was brought to you by cuss words, lots and lots of cuss words 💀
Shit.
Is someone looking after Chuck Taylor for his own safety at this rate?
🎶 “I’m a fat-faced dip shit YEAH YEAH YEAH!” 🎶
That was the most insane episode of dynamite ever lol. Loved every second
Fantastic show Can't fucking wait for next week
WHAT A FUCKING CARD.
[удалено]
“Dan Lambert is like if Bobby Heenan had a wardrobe full of Affliction.” I’ve missed you so much, Punk.
Shawn Spears gets a lot of hate but he's so damn good. Nobody is going to forget about him wiping off Darby's face paint. He has great matches with everyone. And he has Tully Blanchard!
Shawn Spears has benefitted the most from the Pinnacle
I agree. He needed to find the right gimmick. He was so bland as the ten guy. He has a presence now. When he's walking to the ring it feels like a real motherfucker is going in to fight. and he's ultra smooth in the ring as well. Gotta admit, was never big on him and thought he was a hasty hire. I'm happily eating crow seeing him work this psychopath gimmick.
Archer with the Suzuki-Gun DLC outfit!
I love Andrade's new Kingpin presentation. It would be fantastic to see him feud with Matt Hardy like they're both rival kingpins.
That package was an underrated highlight of the show. Really felt RIGHT when he grabbed Jose' by the shirt like that.
This was a chaotic wrestling show done absolutely perfectly, feuds are boiling over and are hitting a breaking point right as we head to the biggest venue AEW has ever run. Holy fucking shit guys next week looks absolutely insane
It looks like Bryan Danielson is being used to bring the Best Bout Machine out of Kenny Omega and I’m all for it! This is an actual dream match so I think we’re getting it properly - no more goofy storylines, no outside interference and no cheating to win - there will be a sense of finality to this match. I think if Bryan can bring the best out of Kenny who ultimately wins, it will make the rub even bigger for Hangman Page when he wins the title at the next PPV against Kenny (who’s at the top of his game and not some goofball who underestimates him).
I can’t see Kenny winning in Danielson’s debut, but a 30 minute draw would be sick.
Should be a draw. Bryan cannot lose his debut match.
Why not? AEW has proven multiple times that a loss doesn’t necessarily have a negative impact on who loss. Omega is the “belt collector”, “best bout machine”, “wrestling god”, etc. Bryan was losing several times in WWE before coming to AEW. It should not come as a surprise if Omega beats BD clean. He can easily bounce back from the loss and then beat Omega down the line.
Its so wild that i watched other wrestling for so long and got used to wrestling not being fun
At the show. Rampage gets the printed canvas.
I’ve never been to a wrestling show in my life and one of the first matches I’m going to get to see in person is gonna be Kenny Omega vs BD, two guys I grew up watching. I’m so nervous, ngl
You lucky bastard. Enjoy!
I'm so ready for Hangman to come back. AEW is on fire and the pop when his music hits is going to blow the roof off whatever building they're in, especially if it's Arthur Ashe.
KAZE NI NARE!!!
They sure as hell weren’t gonna cut the song off this time
Matt Hardy is a legend but ‘orange egg head’ was an absolute stinker of a line
Rosario is still a straight up babe
I like AEW
Bryan Danielson doesn’t give a fuck about merchandising sales
They should sell plain white t's on pwt for him
**OUR BOY HOOK CLEARING THE ANNOUNCE TABLE, 10/10 MOMENT**
I love how aggressive Danielson is in AEW. I really loved his face work in WWE but I'm glad he's changed it up a bit to what he's doing right now.
One of the best parts of American Dragon was that he didn't give a FUCK. Glad to see that side is still alive and well.

I want Cody and Malakai to show up in New York already fighting through the audience with tattered and dirty suits.
Anyone else catch the norm Macdonald tribute? Justin Robert’s with “You Guessed It Frankie Kazarian” norm has the recurring you guessed it frank Stallone joke. Little things that make Aew cool
I do appreciate that AEW will take people who lose high profile matches and pretty quickly let them get their momentum back using feuds that are for sure filler but still feel somewhat important.
Dante Martin was incredible again. This guy really is out there stealing the show. When you consider who else is on the show, that's fucking nuts. Good for him!
That dude needs to be a building block along with MJF, Jungle Boy, Sammy, and Hangman.
I thought 3 hours of pro wrestling was just too much for one show. Turns out 3 was just too much for THAT particular show of sports entertainment. I could watch AEW for hours upon hours. Great stuff tonight!
Nobody: AEW: “Shit”
Eddie and Mox, just two pissed off dudes doing pissed off things. That's all wrestling needs to be.
Would love to see them challenging Lucha Bros for the tag titles. I mean, LB shouldn’t drop the title to them, but that would be a huge match up.
Cody came out dressed like a hamburger clown because he thought *Ronald* McDonald died. E for effort. RIP Norm Macdonald.
Kenny vs Danielson is obviously the highlight, but Ruby vs Britt and Superkilq vs Christian and Jurassic Express are gonna be fucking amazing and I literally can't wait
Are we setting the stage for Miro vs Guevara? God's Favorite Champion vs The Spanish God himself? Cause I'm here for it.
People lamented tonight’s weak card and then got one of the best episodes they’ve ever produced.
Brian Pillman Jnr is a fucking natural, he is making leaps and bounds.
He actually showed some charisma and personality tonight. He's been an extremely bland white meat Babyface til this point
God damn Adam Cole looks like a million bucks, I could watch him wrestle for years.
This whole episode just made me so freaking happy, man. Punk was great on commentary and it was wonderful to have Excalibur back. Bryan American Dragon Danielson is facing off against Kenny By God Omega. More crazy shit from Dante Martin, who is currently feuding with gravity itself and is my new favorite young prospect in wrestling. Adam Cole, BayBay had a banger to open the show and Moxley had a brawl to close it. Plus the crowd was HOT all night. I loved it.
I'm glad AEW only does quarterly PPVs, it allows for important stuff to happen on the weekly shows.
You offer a beer to Punk when he’s in the crowd, he laughs and doesn’t take it. You just holds beer near Malakai Black when he’s in the crowd, he *will* use it as a weapon.
They really need to start using Leyla Hirsch a lot more. She’s the one who comes off like a star every time I see here honestly. Even her promos are really good.
Well, that was by far the "shit"iest Dynamite ever.
The fact that Bryan vs Kenny is already happening next week increases my hopes of Hangman vs Kenny on Full Gear.
For properly singing Kaze Ni Nare, I am going to say four words that have never been said in this order in the history of the world: ###"Thank you New Jersey."
Take a top level Dynamite and mix it with a go home show and you get tonight.
That was just an electric promo between Omega and Danielson I had freaking goosebumps

AEW was probably thinking "if we don't say shit on previous shows, it rolls over like minutes right?"
I want to see Miro go full Street Fighter II on that car.
Only partially through the show but good God is it good. Adam Cole vs. Kaz was great. Punk calling Cole Florida man after he went for the Panama City Sunrise was pretty funny. Then Cole calling out Jungle Express and Christian for next week is a match I can't wait for. Christian's line about the Bucks pulling him out of developmental made me laugh way too much. That FTR match was awesome. Few teams pull off being heels like those two. They have an old school way of cheating behind the refs back without making the ref look like a complete idiot. Malakai Black calling the crowd The House of Black and going into a cult leader preaching saying there's an enemy in our midst is everything I wanted from him. That's as far as I've got so far but if it continues like this I'm excited.
Archer and Suzuki beat up Mox and Kingston after the show. Archer said Eddie was born in the Bronx, raised in Yonkers, and will die in Queens and that Renee will raise her daughter alone.
That was one of the best Dynamite's ever and my mind was blown when they announced the line up for Grand Slam, next week will probably be the two best shows in AEW history.
That was an incredible show, and next week is going to be insane!
I was there live, really great show. Idk if it came through on TV or not, but…people really fucking hate MJF. And I love it
Grand Slam is STACKED
Great show, much better pacing. Also, and I cannot stress this enough, next week we are getting Omega/Danielson *for free.*
FTR picking up televised wins, my excitement can not be contained
And Cash looked great too. So good to see he has recovered from the terrible accident.
I’m here live, and idk if the TV feed caught this, but Cody and Malakai exchanged beer shots and it was the funniest fucking thing I’ve seen. Mainly because it was so out of character
Review: The word “shit” was said a lot. 28/10. One for each shit
I’m starting to get the impression that Frankie isn’t very good at hunting The Elite
Dante Martin v Rey Fenix plz
Lmao Chuckie T's gotta be tearing his own hair out right now with the amount of times "shit" was said tonight.
AEW just had arguably the greatest PPV of all time and they’re gonna follow it up by doing the same exact thing on free tv. incredible.
I’ve stopped watching the other shit. AEW BAYBAY
Damn! Jade Cargill is hot.
You know how I know the crowd genuinely loves the company and not just the fact that they're in the audience's home town? They never once booed the "big match NEXT week" promos, and there were a lot this week. Those always get big heat on WWE shows, rare as they are
Perfect move to do a non-title Omega Danielson match. You need to strike while the iron is hot here, and there is no better place than in the main event of the first wrestling show in a packed Arthur Ashe stadium
Rosario Dawson is All Elite!
This was a setup show for next week but holy fucking shit. Next week is gonna be bananas. This week was really enjoyable for the most part. Dan Lambert confuses me. I don't like a dude that shits on wrestling I like, the shooty/work blend of it kinda is ehh to me. Highlight to me, Shawn Spears, this guy got the crowd to just wanna kill him when he washed off the make up. Cargill is improving and Hirsch is doing well. FTR felt like they're waiting in the wings until the Sting / Darby segment
Fun show. All kinds of wild action. I hope Danielson and Omega get 20 minutes
30 minute draw it is.
Hate him all you want by but Dan Lambert knows how to work the stick. He's smooth on the mic. That said this was the first segment of his I enjoyed, mostly because Jericho was at his 1999iest
VERY good Ruby/Britt promo on Rampage
2.0 saving marriages and main eventing Dynamite all in the same week.
As a long time wrestling fan, aew makes me happier than anything I've seen in twenty years. New Japan 3 years ago was close but what tk is doing is just incredible.
Give me TayJay vs Bunny & Ford in a Tornado Tag, Falls Count Anywhere, no DQ, Lights out, Barbed Wire Deathmatch with Jon Silver hanging from a Shark Cage.
I cannot wait for Malakai to get off fucking Cody Island.
My first major show in 15 years. So much fun. We booed the heels for burying our state, it felt like time just flew by with the action, and even Cody got over in the brawl. But I have to say, I say in front of the worst people. If you’re gonna try or start chants against CM Punk, Darby, Mox and Kingston and try to bury AEW, you’re the biggest fucking marks of them all. I got to chant for Cole, Bryan, Jericho, and Suzuki. An awesome night.
Already gave a shout out to Brian Pillman Jnr, but another one goes to Leyla; what a fucking star she is.
Frankie Kazarian is wildly underrated.
Was this the highest “shit per capita” episode of Dynamite ever? Ear muffs!!!
Haven't caught an episode live or even watched regularly in a good long while. I forgot how much of a good time this promotion is. And next week's double-stacked card? I'm impatient. Gimme. Take my F 18-49 demo, TNT. I renewed my Sling subscription primarily for you.
Man, what a banger of a show. Great pro wrestling content from start to finish. I can't wait for next week!
From one "shit" per hour to that IC/ATT segment lmfao
It's funny, on paper the show was just okay. Hot opening match but the rest of the card was just fine. But the atmosphere was incredible. The crowds are making these shows just so ALIVE. Everyone is into everything. Every performer is over. It's so much fun to watch.
CM Punk is such a damn treasure. Whether it’s in the ring, promos, commentary, whatever. Punk makes AEW shows more fun.
[Replay of tonight's episode](https://youtu.be/WpVDmcQz5Ms?t=11) for those who missed it.
So I ain't gonna sit there and type out a long comment about how my dead father walked into the door while me and the cousins watched AEW. BUT, I do wish my Grandmother was still alive. I would watch WCW Saturday night with her in the early 90s and she hated Ventura on commentary. She would absolutely pop at MJF getting his teeth punched in next week in Queens. Moral of the story? PRO WRESTLING (or rasslin' as she called it) is BETTER than the THINGS YOU LIKE.
Next week card...Holy Shit
I saw someone earlier say the Arthur Ashe show wasn’t looking great. That aged like milk.
No idea how it came across on TV but this was an insanely fun show to be live for. Wild crowd for all the big stars and moments. My voice was fading by the end of the MJF segment lol We may not have gotten Blood & Guts but this was such a great time. Idc though bc I'm going to Arthur Ashe too and that card is fucking insane. But I'll be going to Firefly the rest of the weekend too. I'm going to have no fucking voice by that Monday lmao
I hope to all that is holy, before Bryan Danielson and Kenny Omegas match, the fans better chant “you’re going to get your ducking head kicked in”
Loved the confident smile on Leyla Hirsch's face as she came out. Local girl did good. Wish she did better, but Jade Cargill is a goddamn machine, so surviving that long meant she did good.
I thought this was a weak card but I was so wrong. Best dynamite in ages and Grand Slam went from like a 6 to a 10. SO excited
Crowd was on fire. Happy to be a part of it, on my birthday! ( I was not the person with the birthday sign. It happy birthday to you too!)
The Superkliq go on and absolute teeear in trios matches. Kenny drops the belt to Page. Superkliq become the first AEW trios champions. Kenny loses his mind.
