I'm still not a fan of Paul's commentary. But I mean once you hear Taz and Excalibur it's hard to listen to anyone else. Jericho should replace Paul when he retires.
What a loaded show ahead tonight! King, Hart, Darby, Angelico, Dark Order, the Acclaimed, Shotty Lee, Conti, Thunder Rosa, Legit Leyla, Shida, Riho, Hobbs, and some first time debuts, and so much more! Got to love what Monday nights bring! AEW!!
Max Castor is a star. Bowens is the 5 tool player that only gets to say 4 words, but he's very athletically talented. Some of the younger guys: Sammy, Darby, MJF, Jungle Boy, Platinum Max... AEW's future is very bright, for many years to come. I left Top Flite, Gunn Club & The Varsity Blondes off...oh, and obviously Ricky Starks.
They are getting tons of time on Dark/Dark E though. They aren't being left in Catering, they are getting the time/ability to develop plus get over with the audience so when they show up on dynamite they are known. Big thing for a lot of the young talent is they haven't had crowds much if at all so it's good for them to get a few weeks in with crowds before having TV time with Dynamite, or Rampage when it starts up in a month, especially AEW sized crowds of several thousand, for those that did wrestler pre-pandemic it was largely crowds in the hundreds(at best) so they will need to adjust to feed off that crowd(especially Crowds while on TV) Also left off - Bear Country, 5, 10, Anna, Conti, Private Party, Velvet, Jade, Statlander, Abadon - all talent under 30.
I have watched a lot of wrestling over the last 30 years and Darby Allin is without question the fastest wrestler I have ever seen. It is crazy to see a human being moving that quickly. He is also one of the few modern wrestlers that understands the business, and tries to make it believable. Darby even worked a leg injury in this match and made Anjelico attack the leg to set up his finish. I know that was all Darby because I have never seen Anjelico do that with anyone else. Anjelico always just hooks his finish out of nowhere, without using any psychology whatsoever. Darby is going to be great.
Darby's has to be one of the best success storying in wrestling over the last few years. From his first AEW appearance where the crowd was like "WHO?" and he got crickets (I was there) to now when his music hits, the entire venue gets to their feet to welcome him is pretty amazing to see. And people say AEW can't build new stars...
Sting's first appearance on Dark Elevation?? That's a must-see moment I can't wait for. I have a hunch that Alan 5 Angels will push Brian Cage to the limit. Its gonna be sweet
@@al5306 is a mouthbreathing lemming who is incapable of intelligent thought. A L is as clueless as an exalted cyclops showing up to a Nation of Gods & Earths cypher.
I thought I would hate it, but damn. Paul is a fantastic commentator. He’s better than a certain masked commentator. I love the banter between him and Tony
1:48:56 man looking back on old WCW clips I never thought I would see a day where Tony Schiavone would be calling Stings moves again. It really is great to see and hear!
EIGHT OF MY FAVORITE PEOPLE are in the ring together in a chaos match! Just look at the spread of talent there. Those eight represent what AEW is all about. Wily veterans, the strong and handsome, the quick and agile, the crazy personality, the brilliant talkers, the bold and the beautiful... all great athletes. That's AEW in a nutshell represented by the 9 in the ring.
I forgot RAW was on tonight. I forgot that the last 4 weeks. Used to never miss an episode. Now I never miss an episode of AEW. Doesn't matter what it is. Darks, Vlogs, Dynamite, PPVs, looking forward to Rampage.
@@thiccraccoonxxl7082 I like it. AEW's booking is at its best and most comfortable with factions involved on feuds with multiple matches and stories spawning from them. I think that's what the women division lacks.
Yeah, more guys should at least practice commentary. Helps with promo skills, and gives the company a reason to keep you around when you get an injury instead of being stuck at home off TV while your push dies.
I did too! Super chill guy and awesome to talk to, I woke up at 8am had no idea he was gonna be in Lexington then I immediately drove 2 and a half hours to meet him. I told him to kick Ethan page's ass and I got his autograph and a selfie with him.
When Luther and Billy Gunn were in the ring together, that has to one of the highest combined age of two people wrestling one another in history. I think it's 107 years.
I do see him as a heel in years ahead, imagine that he drops the jungle boy name to embrace the Jack Perry and maybe cut his hair... interesting at least
Something happened on the suplex. She was out on her feet after that. I think her head hit Riho's heel at the end of it. She didn't protect herself on the finish at all. She wasn't completely knocked out, but she definitely was not all there. The lights were on, but nobody was home. You'll see what I am talking about if you pay close attention.
The Acclaimed have a great thing going, love the idea of them feuding with the varsity blondes (both teams started in AEW). And hopefully Julia can get some revenge on Bowens for his comments.

Labravas psychology is off the chains.. she sold those kicks beautifully and made it look like she was getting an a** whipping in an actual fight . E ven after the match when Tay got that finisher she displayed elite level psychology staying knocked out. Tay is a beast tho.
Taya was good with her finishing mounted pin. She stopped using it. She now used the Dudley to win. Some call it the fumigator. That's Jade's finishing move too.
Fuego was fantastic to see still around. Kilynn King was the most exciting though. I would like to see her entrance and tag with Big Swole and Red Velvet. I love King's dancing and chemistry with that team!
Darby actually sold the leg through the end of the show. I love this fucking guy. It is so refreshing to see an actual professional on a modern wrestling show.
After watching the latest Botchamania, I notice Yuka botch her move but Riho - Amber Nova finish was indeed the cardinal sin of match finish. Did heard some boos too that the match had to take an extra time just for Riho to pull off diving foot stomp finish. Poor Riho had to smile on the finish even though it was a messed up.
They're gonna have to figure out if Rampage should run on the same night as Dynamite if they want to minimize burning the crowd out. Maybe do a test run of Rampage + RUclips matches on Fridays live.
I've actually noticed the AEW crowds being kinda low energy in general outside of the return of them in Daily's Place and it's been weirding me out. I would be fucking pumped to be there.
I'm pretty interested in what's going on with Jora Johl to be honest. Whatever they have planned for him in the future, I hope it goes well, I can always dig a guy wanting to do right by the next generation in the moral dilemma of sticking with the wrong group for the sake of meeting his goal.
He's such a Babyface already! I want hfo to treat him like shit for about 6 weeks and then breakaway and join a sweet faction like Jurassic express or best friends
I would agree it's an interesting storyline. But he's only just arrived, and hasn't proved himself. If he gets a contract over better more established wrestlers, it would be a bloody travesty
@@richieb7692 I don't disagree, at this point, I'm giving the benefit of the doubt that they have fate in his abilities and are using this storyline as a way FOR him to prove himself.
@@WTFUrNotJLo nothing creative. Until AEW can prove that they really matter, we won't get anything interesting. Seeing Jay White go against anyone in AEW would be ace. Hell, if they could do something worthwhile with their women's division, we could see more of TJPW. Imagine Shida vs Yamashita.
I enjoyed the sakazaki Vs king match, it felt like a real struggle, not every move has to be perfect, I really think it helps sometimes when things are a little messy, looks like a proper fight Some great stuff in there too, just a good engaging fight & great to see yuka back!
They have good chemistry together. I completely agree with you about how messiness adds to realism, and these two portrayed a great fight. King needs more experience, and I hope AEW keeps her so she gets it!
I like this move of having the "enhancement" guys teamed up with the established teams for the trios match. I would like to see this happen more often.
Fuego looks good but the poor guy can't catch a break he is cannon fodder for all the bigger names. hopefully AEW will do right by him and give him a nice push for his hard work.
He's going to be the next Kenta Kobashi. He gets pinned 60 times in a row and then starts winning matches, kills cancer with a Tornado DDT, and becomes a legend.
He is an underdog, and peoples cheer for him, even if he jobs - thats because he is not over for his in-ring skills or his mic skills, but his comedic situations and story on Sammy's vlog... he is fine were he is...
The Acclaimed and The Varsity Blondes are the future of the tag team division. They'll both be multiple time AEW Tag Team Champions in the future, I bet.
Watching this today the tag teams are much more in sync with each other, its not all over the place like before..... Kudos to whoever is in charge with helping them.
At least we got 3 good competitive matches for the women in amber vs riho, yuka vs kylinn and hikaru vs julia this time that made the show watchable for me. All the other ones were pointless squashes again. Thumbs up earned.
Tony and Paul are like two step dad’s awkwardly making small talk at a cookout.
Taz and Ex are the uncles in the garage getting lit
I'm still not a fan of Paul's commentary. But I mean once you hear Taz and Excalibur it's hard to listen to anyone else. Jericho should replace Paul when he retires.

@Dominick La Licata Agreed. Bowens got hurt just as the team was gaining momentum. Glad to see he's getting more mic time now.

That Miami Heat punchline was simple yet so well delivered XDXD

God bless Tony. I was watching some of his older work this guy's been around forever.

I love how AEW uses storytelling even here. Building the AEW universe one wrestler at a time.
@Shane's Warped World Creations yeah, that Jungle Boy match sure was a squash fest.
Hit the road e mark.
Definitely cool with Angelico being a consistent main eventer here. He's so good.

Yuka, Riho and Leyla....proof that big results can come in small packages. Three of my favorite AEW competitors. :~)
I just realized, Shida's asymmetrical outfit seems to symbolize a heel turn. Shida as a ruthless heel will be most entertaining.
Yes please. She lacks charisma to be a babyface imo.
She has a heel with the yakuza white suit would be great.
I hope she leads a Yakuza themed faction. I’d say Emi Sakura and VENY would be good members of it. It would also help establish more women’s tag teams

Shes wearing 2 black gloves. Shes gonna be a double heel.
The AEW universe is back once again since March 2020.

Indeed. AEW has no shortage of announce guys if they so choose that route in future.
Ethan Page is comfortable at being Ethan Page on every wrestling aspect. A true pro.

Some great stuff in there too, just a good engaging fight & great to see yuka back!
They have good chemistry together. I completely agree with you about how messiness adds to realism, and these two portrayed a great fight. King needs more experience, and I hope AEW keeps her so she gets it!
King should've won.
Ngl, when I saw sakazaki vs king in your comment, I kinda thought the show spontaneously broke out into a king of fighters stream XD
Yuka's bump on the apron looked horrific. I swear she tries to compensate for her size by taking bumps twice as hard as anyone else.
I am fully ready for Yuta to join the Best Friends. He has such a fun to watch, unique style, and would definitely compliment the group.
Fuego en Miami. I *KNEW* that sappy goodbye stuff was a work.🔥🔥🔥🌞🌞🌞🌪🌪🌪
Actually this makes me more inclined to think it's real. If it was a work, they wouldn't have brought Fuego back the very next week like this.
what a time to be a wrestling fan ty aew for the free content
Its going down tonight mane the legend Sting is Elevation
I like this move of having the "enhancement" guys teamed up with the established teams for the trios match. I would like to see this happen more often.
Wow. Darby cleared three quarters of the ring on the Sunset Flip. That was impressive.
Those Kicks By Tay Conti, WOW!!
Fuego looks good but the poor guy can't catch a break he is cannon fodder for all the bigger names. hopefully AEW will do right by him and give him a nice push for his hard work.
He's getting a Pop! He'll definitely get that contract soon enough
He's going to be the next Kenta Kobashi. He gets pinned 60 times in a row and then starts winning matches, kills cancer with a Tornado DDT, and becomes a legend.
He is an underdog, and peoples cheer for him, even if he jobs - thats because he is not over for his in-ring skills or his mic skills, but his comedic situations and story on Sammy's vlog... he is fine were he is...
At first I wasn't a fan of Fuego However the more I saw Fuego on Sammy's Vlog and on Dark, I started to get hook!!!! FUEGO, I love you!!!!!!
The Acclaimed and The Varsity Blondes are the future of the tag team division. They'll both be multiple time AEW Tag Team Champions in the future, I bet.
Tay Conti got a huge Pop from the crowd
As the most attractive woman on Earth (and a total tease), she should.
Lee Johnson and Jungle Boy WHAT A MATCH. Fantastic stuff from both athletes.
The Miami crowd is chanting "YUCA FRITA" to Yuka Sakazaki...LMAO!!
Cubans lmao
Watching this today the tag teams are much more in sync with each other, its not all over the place like before..... Kudos to whoever is in charge with helping them.
Wheeler Yuta vs Jora Jora.
That’s the feud I’m looking out for.
Tay and Rosa are incredibly beautiful, as well as talented! They should be the Champ and #1 contender! Amazing smiles
Man the acclaimed spiting some fire lyrics on aew dark elevation
They got a pretty huge pop as soon as that beat hit
Yuka vs King was awesome
Paul White said he'd park his car in Amber Nova's garage all the time lmao. He also said Big Pun would be his rap name. Should someone tell him?
Who is "Paul White"? I only hear Paul Wight...💁
At least we got 3 good competitive matches for the women in amber vs riho, yuka vs kylinn and hikaru vs julia this time that made the show watchable for me. All the other ones were pointless squashes again. Thumbs up earned.
