Okay, clearly our system isn’t geared to properly rate episodes with lots of amazing, long matches. A couple of really short talking segments sunk this one, but guaranteed WORTH WATCHING!

What happens when the balancing influence of Calder is missing from the show? PURE CHAOS! Well, like 60% chaos. Well, at least a significant amount of unstructured tomfoolery.

It should be noted that Chan handed out a LOT of downs this episode. Like, a lot a lot. So, if you find you agree more with Calder or Theresa, you’ll probably like this show much more than this VERY low rating would lead you to believe.
Anyway, we all agree that Penta/Kommander vs the Young Bucks slaps. So does Skye Blue vs Red Velvet and so does Mocks and Yoda vs Orange Cassidy and Hook. And, of course, Toni Storm can do no wrong.
Hope to see you at Full Gear this weekend!

DOUBLE RAINBOW! Which is to say, this is quite a polarizing show. There were certainly high points: the MJF and Cole segments are can’t miss; so is the Lucha Bros / BCC match. But there was a lot of filler this week and the killer was having a hard time keeping up.

This is the perfect microcosm of an AEW show. It may not be their best show, but it might be the most representative. You want to be sports entertained? Cole and MJF put on what might be their best performance EVER. You want blood? Mox gushes enough for half the roster. You want a perfunctory women's match whose length and attention borders on disrespectful to the entire division? IT'S ALL HERE
