AEW Dynamite 8/18/2021 Review
This Dynamite came from Fertitta Center in Houston, Texas. Pretty hot crowd but I found the show very mixed in terms of the ups and downs. Too much schizoid nonsensical booking again but I’ll go into detail later towards the conclusion of the show for my overall thoughts.

AEW Rampage 8/13/2021 Review
Once again AEW returned to the Petersen Events Center in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania just after having their Dynamite show except this time AEW was debuting a new program called Rampage, which was a one hour live broadcast rather than their two hours. Done right after WWE Smackdown, Rampage had title matches as well as Mark Henry…

NXT/HHH, Ric Flair to AEW, the Forbidden Door, AEW Ratings, etc. News Ponderings
There’s so much going on in pro-wrestling right now, I figured it might be time to do a non-review write up of what’s going on in American wrestling since I normally only reserve my thoughts for AEW Dynamite Reviews. Despite how I’m still not a fan of the current era of pro-wrestling, I am interested…

AEW Dynamite 8/11/2021 Review
Another Wednesday (actually Thursday as I’m writing this), another Dynamite show. This was live at the Petersen Events Center in Pittsburgh, PA. I believe this might’ve been at a university minus a university type of crowd. Lots of yellow flags in the audience that night (mostly for Britt Baker). Don’t think this was a complete…

Is Pro-Wrestling Interesting Right Now?
While I’ve always been a fan of pro-wrestling since ’85, my love for it goes in waves where something might turn me off for a period before another thing reinvigorates my interest. In the past 10 years, I only would catch glimpses of it through YouTube and barely follow the results on news sites. I…

AEW: Why Hiring CM Punk and Bryan Danielson at the Same Time Will Fail
At this point in time, it’s almost a lock for CM Punk and Bryan Danielson to come into AEW. The hint given by Darby Allin at the recent Dynamite for the event coming up at the Chicago United Center, along with the way the announcers have posed hints about the huge show being planned without…

AEW Dynamite Fight for the Fallen: 7/28/2021 Review
Tonight’s Dynamite was at the Bojangles Coliseum, Charlotte, North Carolina, which in theory had been a traditionally strong spot for NWA wrestling in the 80s and maybe up to the mid 90s through WCW with Flair, etc. And the spot looked fairly packed with people hot for the opening which would start off with a…

AEW Dynamite 7/21/2021 Fyter Fest Night 2 Review
The talk right now has been that the plan with AEW was to load up these shows as AEW goes back on the road. And it seems that with the various contracts cuts or expiring contracts, Tony Khan has been opening up the checkbook and trying to get as many people as possible along with…

CM Punk Possible Return? Maybe With AEW?
I will firmly admit that pro-wrestling right now might be getting very interesting. While the pandemic hurt the business from an audience drawing capability along with the product losing a lot of its luster, one of the weird positives to result was the WWE casting off many people. I consider this a positive because what…
