AEW Dynamite Review:
This was a fantastic episode of AEW Dynamite tonight. From beginning to end, we got a lot of great matches that helped set the stage for Full Gear next month. Penelope Ford’s injury was the only real downer of the evening. Other than that, I don’t think there was a single moment on this show where I felt like this show wasn’t firing on all cylinders. However, I must nitpick and say that the closing segment took a bit too long to pull off, but it was a fun reveal. Overall, a damn good show from AEW tonight.
Grade: A-
