Sadly, we didn't get to watch Dynamite live like we wanted to, but I am doing my best to keep up with it moving forward. Last week was rough, and to be honest.. this week is too... BUT I am doing my best to work with it all. I'll be honest... I am a little burnt out with AEW right now. And of course.. this comes not long after I really start getting back into WWE. This happens some times.. BUT.. I feel like by World's End.. things will be much better. These feelings pop up sometimes.. and guess what? That's okay!
We've got a lot to talk about, so let's get into it!
-Shelton Benjamin vs. Kyle Fletcher
I wasn't really sure about this match but as time went on.. it ended up being really good. These two work AMAZINGLY together and I loved it! I'd love to see them work together more, to be honest. Kyle is doing HUGE things and I can't wait to see how he will fair through this tournament. In the end.. Kyle cheated to get this win.. which did take me by complete surprise. He was able to use the ropes without the ref seeing this.. Things are heating up, I'll say. I can't wait to see how this will play out overall.
-Dynamite Dozen Battle Royal
This was okay for the most part, but didn't expect the winners. While it didn't really click at first.. it made since at the end. It was Kyle O'Rilley and Adam Cole that were the final two.. and they will face each other.. to see who will face MJF at World's End. Hmm.. I have a feeling it will be Kyle.. pushing this feud out more for Adam Cole and MJF. I do have a feeling this is going to be a good one tho.These two have a hell of a past.
**We did see Hook come to the ring to call out Nick and the rest of The Patriarchy. While detracted by Christian coming from the stage, it was Nick and Kip that attacked Hook from behind. Hook's hand ended up being smashed between two steel chairs. Hmm..
**Backstage we also saw Mercedes with a little interview from Renee. I'll just be honest.. with the women's roster being stacked right now.. having TWO titles that are being used like this is very upsetting. You have two women that aren't hardly seen or defending their titles and are in pretty bland story lines. I am very disappointed in Tony for this right now. I am PRAYING things will get better by or after World's End.
-Max Caster vs. Swerve Strickland
Squash. What ever is going on with Max and this weird ass story line.. I wish it would stop. I understand his little gimmick right now.. but this is kinda stupid. Just let the man turn and have it move forward. This wasn't even a match really.. Swerve beat his ass. lol!
-PAC vs. Jay White
Now this was a match I very much enjoyed! I don't know what happened.. but I am loving this with Jay White right now. I haven't always been a fan.. but something has just switched in me and I am here for it all. We did see Yuta try to get involved but it didn't stop Jay from picking up the win. After the match we saw Yuta get hit with a Blade Runner.. and Shafir showed up for a stare down, only for Mox to attack from behind. Hangman did show up as well.. ready to go with Mox, but Orange came out of no where and tried to strangle Mox with a cord. LIKE WHAT. The segment ended with White/Page/OC taking out the Death Riders. It looks like we are getting a fatal four way... prob at World's End. I wouldn't mind that at all!
-Anna Jay vs. Penelope Ford
I loved this.. I really did, just as I have with their previous matches. There were some moments of splotches.. but overall very good. I could watch them every week.. I also wish they would let Ford pick up some wins as well. She deserves them! Anna Jay did pick up the win, and right after called out Mone. The two ALMOST were ready to fight, but Mone chickened out at the last second. PLEASE for the love of God let Anna Jay take this title from here RIGHT NOW. Please and thank you.
-Brody King vs. Claudio Castagnoli
This match was freaking awesome! I had to fight to stay awake but I knew this was going to be a good one. I was right! These two tore the house down and really gave it to each other in the best way. I didn't expect Claudio to pick up the win, but he did. I have a feeling this tournament is going to be AMAZING moving forward. With Claudio up to 6 points.. will he be able to move on to win the whole thing?? Only time will tell!
Overall: 7.3/10
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I really hope things pick up moving forward with AEW. Don't get me wrong, I love it and all.. everything is just in a tough spot right now I feel. You have multiple people out, and I honestly feel that some of the story lines are questionable. You have two women titles that are kind of being held hostage with bland story lines.. and you have the men's in limbo with one HELL of a story line. I think moving INTO World's End it will shape up, it's just it getting there. Things do have to change if they are going into MAX like this. Only time will tell...
UP NEXT: Tonight is WWE Friday Night Smackdown! SO MUCH could happen! I'll be doing my best to live tweet (with a bit of a delay) so come say hi!
until next time
