More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Playing Favorites
Most of my favorite wrestlers are dead. Now THERE’S a way to kick things off… but it’s true. Obviously I can’t talk about my REAL favorite; he ended up a monster, brain turned to soup by concussions and drugs and grief (and let’s face facts; he was probably not a great guy prior to what…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Me stab someone down the lane
Even a SNOWICANE or whatever couldn’t slow the momentum AEW seems to be be building over the past couple of months. It does seem like, after long last, even if everything isn’t perfect, the ship has at least been righted. There are pitfalls along the way… the existence of EDGE… WWE trying to sabotage Forbidden…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Hold on to me tightly, I’m a sliding scale
I try not to judge the post pay per view Dynamites too terribly hard as those shows usually have to involve a lot of recaps and direction resets and etcetera (plus the fact that EVERYONE is probably a bit beat up from Sunday, surely one of the most hard hitting shows I’ve seen in ages)……

I Want to Shoot the Whole Day Down: Now don’t be sad (’cause) two out of three ain’t bad
Yes, Revolution was great. Yes, the main event stunk. It’s okay to point both of those things out, I promise. You’d think saying one thing was bad was a capital offense! Blame the wrestlers, not the reaction. The real diehard AEW fans will cop to EDGE / Jon Moxley stinking like a man covered in…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: To turn your mind around I know will take time
I don’t know that AEW has a great record with go home shows. Often times they overshoot the mark, miss the peak, end up DECREASING interest in matches, etc. I’d say they made a concerted effort with the build to Revolution to avoid that, and even if I don’t love Mercedes Moné and her same,…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Mutiny on the Bounty
It’s rare that I would say this… but it almost doesn’t matter what I feel about Dynamite (or Collision); this upcoming AEW pay per view is shaping up to be a best ever, full of big time singles matches with natural, logical builds while the other guys are counting on a weird promo, seemingly fueled…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Yes the world spins for you
Sometimes I feel bad when I don’t enjoy Dynamite as much as everyone else seemed to. Staring here at the blank screen, I’m not even really what I want to say or even if I have ANYTHING in particular to say about last night’s episode. I get it; people WANTED to enjoy the show, to…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: And I say, it’s all right
I guess we should talk about the AEW releases? Do I have to? It IS my site, after all; no one is holding a gun to my head… that I know of, anyway. I dunno… this isn’t really a news site and I don’t particularly have any huge, revelatory thoughts you already haven’t heard about…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Why don’t we turn the clock to zero, honey
As ever, the AEW discourse rings dumb throughout the endless tubes of the internet. The latest non-controversy controversy is whether the upcoming Australian show was designed to be a pay per view or not and then, on top of that, there is suddenly a LOT of hand wringing that the good folk of Australia aren’t…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Loneliness is not a phase
As much as I’ve come to hate the term, there is something to be said about “restoring the feeling.” I don’t think you have to look much further than last Saturday’s episode of Collision… a show that garnered near universal praise (at least as near as one can these days) and last night’s Dynamite, a…
