More Dangerous Than Dynamite: I’m getting back on my feet and I’m grooving to the beat
Feels good to have a decent Dynamite after whatever the hell last week was. Sure, Grand Slam sounds decent (and will likely be a wasteland, attendance-wise) but ultimately… past the business metrics and incoming TV deals and the moving goalposts and whatever… did the show entertain my surly ass? The answer this week was yes.…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Not much to say
After a tremendous pay per view, man, Dynamite left me cold. There were a couple of good things, but… I have to be honest… most everything was mediocre to awful. I don’t really have a lot to say about the show. I would rather talk about the good stuff, but in brief: Mariah May grinding…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Let me hear you cut it, DJ / Let’s make some noise / The roof, the roof, the roof is on fire
I mean… talking about a so-so Dynamite practically feels like an anti climax after Hangman Page got his pyromania on (NOT a Def Leppard reference but it COULD HAVE BEEN) at the end of Wednesday’s episode. Instead, if nothing else, we should probably look at this instantly infamous ACT OF ARSON as compared to the…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: There’s no tix in the Champaign room
See what I did there? I’m a funny guy; I think of clever things. So… All In came and went. As the masses continue to fight about whether or not 53 some odd thousand is good or not (it is, now move on for Gotch’s sake), AEW seems to be at a bit of a…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Your future dream is a shopping scheme
Just a full warning here; despite the good parts of last night’s show, the bad stuff or the too little, too late stuff is really what I’m going to blither about here. If you loved Dynamite… this is probably not going to be your cuppa today. Don’t get me wrong; there WAS good stuff. If…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Strong against crime
Have to say it was a pretty decent Dynamite this week, even if it was a bit heavy on video packages and tomfoolery. Despite my antipathy for All In and the fact that they have seemingly only really built a couple of really strong matches for it… I will definitely be interested to see the…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Stop me if you think that you have heard this one before
If you’re looking for super hot takes on Dyanamite, I dunno if I’m your man this week. I largely found the episode dull and don’t have a lot to say about it. There was technically good wrestling, but a lot of it felt marred by stupidity (should Kyle Fletcher cheat before MJF inevitably does? Yes,…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Open Letter (To a Wrestling Promoter)
I don’t really have a ton to say about last night’s Dynamite. I thought the first hour was pretty bad (Will Ospreay and Lance Archer was fine; it was the MJF scaffolding around it that I didn’t care for) and I think they’ve dropped the ball pretty demonstrably on the Toni Storm and Mariah May…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Knife goes in, guts come out
In a way, it’s kind of a relief to have Blood and Guts (hereafter B&G) out of the way; we can concentrate on All In and Out and Arthur Ashe and etc. I mean, there are a million other things to worry about and all of us, not one single person who watches AEW… collectively,…
