More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Bruv, bruv me do
All In is here and man, I dunno. I’m sure it will be good. Mostly. But it just doesn’t feel particularly special. Again, AGAIN AEW produces this ancillary content about Will Ospreay fpr YouTube and AGAIN, they dump it all on you (and I and everyone) mere days, mere HOURS before AEW All In, the…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: That’s the colour of my room
O frabjous day! The clanky sounds of Chairgate (don’t ask) have given way to the sharp, barking sounds of Dogggate (super don’t ask). Sigh. Look, all I require is a decent episode of Dynamite and a star to guide her by. In This Week in Supplemental Material, AEW remembered Will Ospreay is meant to be,…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Oh, Sammy. Sammy is so dirty
Have to say before committing eyeballs to phosphor and fingers to keyboard; this is not the best sounding Dynamite on paper. There are three weeks to Wembley, brethren; in the words of TONY KHAN HIMSELF, let’s fucking go! No time to slooooow down, so what is this card? Tonight, Dynamite emanated from a very lackluster…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Jump in that water, be free
Editor Convoy here: in between taking notes and writing the column last night, I lost at least part of my draft in a fashion where it couldn’t be retrieved. Frankly, I didn’t feel strongly enough about either the show or what I had already written to reconstruct all of it. If this missive lacks the…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: I do, I don’t, whatever*
Despite a week of teased returns and accusations of AI slop and peculiar match ups causing yet more intense feelings… …AEW only went and put on not only the best post pay per view Dynamite, maybe ever, but maybe one of the best Dynamites ever, period. Certainly one of the best CROWDS ever; 3,500 Detroit…

I Want To Shoot The Whole Day Down: There’s no Canada like French Canada
We could argue all day the merits of AEW slowly but surely crawling towards the once per month pay per view model… suffice to say I don’t like it but it’s not like I don’t understand it. Money talks, and all that. I do think that there is a touch of nuance lost when AEW…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: To hurt, they try and try
We are at that part of the weekly AEW discourse where jerks are making (some) good points but in insufferable fashion, the defense force is out in full force and mad YOU might not be into the PPV since this is a weird cycle, diehards are telling you why a LITANY of WWE people coming…

Dark Side of the Ring: In this world I find a way to cross the line
This is for you; you know who you are. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities and poorly produced documentaries. While this isn’t really the space to go into a line for line attack on the latest Dark Side of the Ring documentary, this time featuring Total Nonstop Action (a dark…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: Clarissa wrestlesplains it all
I could write paragraphs, COLUMN INCHES about the difference between wrestlers using sand for a dumb, crooked finish and wrestling MANAGERS using powder or salt since time immemorial but I get tired of wrestlesplaining or being wrestlesplained to, so we can table that. A plea from ship to shore and all points east; I try…

More Dangerous Than Dynamite: I can blow you away or you can ride with me
You can’t say AEW gave you a sleepy post pay per view Dynamite THIS week, and to top it off, due to the impending holiday, a Thursday night Collision to boot. Then, on top of all that, next week’s Dynamite sounds insane. AEW feels fairly hot, feels like they are stomping on the gas pedal.…
