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,…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: It had momentum, it was gaining traction
I was geared up earlier; I had half of this column already written in my head. I was prepared to write a fiery defense of AEW in light of WWE poaching signing Stephanie Vacquer and the LEGENTIL ENGINES going into overdrive this afternoon, trying desperately to distract from what was looking to be a fun…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Hey, baby, it’s the fourth of July
Happy Fourth to those who celebrate (which would not appear to be me as I’m writing this whilst at work). Not that there’s much to celebrate this year as my country slowly erodes into oblivion. Cough. At any rate, before I get started talking about Dynamite (which was a really good show and will be…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Hurrah! Another Year, Surely This One will be Better than the Last
Whew! Good to finally have an episode of Dynamite that I can wholeheartedly get behind. Not that there weren’t issues or things I could nitpick… but this was probably the best Dyna in MONTHS. Big picture stuff first… the Will Ospreay / Swerve Strickland segment was REALLY good. Like, REALLY, REALLY good. How’s that for…
