AEW Dynamite 8/25/2021 Review
Another Wednesday (actually Thursday for me) and you know what that means! Yes, jobberville is back. This was live from Milwaukee, Wisconsin at the UWM Panther Arena. I think this was one of the more interesting places for AEW to appear because now they’ve completely gone off their “safer” target markets into places that I’m…

AEW Rampage 8/20/2021 Review
Set at the United Center in Chicago Illinois, this possibly was AEW’s biggest and most anticipated event. We’ve had some tremendous debuts but the one happening on this night will be talked about for years to come. Why? The return of CM Punk to pro-wrestling!

AEW Dynamite 8/18/2021 Review
This Dynamite came from Fertitta Center in Houston, Texas. Pretty hot crowd but I found the show very mixed in terms of the ups and downs. Too much schizoid nonsensical booking again but I’ll go into detail later towards the conclusion of the show for my overall thoughts.

AEW Rampage 8/13/2021 Review
Once again AEW returned to the Petersen Events Center in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania just after having their Dynamite show except this time AEW was debuting a new program called Rampage, which was a one hour live broadcast rather than their two hours. Done right after WWE Smackdown, Rampage had title matches as well as Mark Henry…

NXT/HHH, Ric Flair to AEW, the Forbidden Door, AEW Ratings, etc. News Ponderings
There’s so much going on in pro-wrestling right now, I figured it might be time to do a non-review write up of what’s going on in American wrestling since I normally only reserve my thoughts for AEW Dynamite Reviews. Despite how I’m still not a fan of the current era of pro-wrestling, I am interested…

AEW Dynamite 8/11/2021 Review
Another Wednesday (actually Thursday as I’m writing this), another Dynamite show. This was live at the Petersen Events Center in Pittsburgh, PA. I believe this might’ve been at a university minus a university type of crowd. Lots of yellow flags in the audience that night (mostly for Britt Baker). Don’t think this was a complete…

Is Pro-Wrestling Interesting Right Now?
While I’ve always been a fan of pro-wrestling since ’85, my love for it goes in waves where something might turn me off for a period before another thing reinvigorates my interest. In the past 10 years, I only would catch glimpses of it through YouTube and barely follow the results on news sites. I…

AEW: Why Hiring CM Punk and Bryan Danielson at the Same Time Will Fail
At this point in time, it’s almost a lock for CM Punk and Bryan Danielson to come into AEW. The hint given by Darby Allin at the recent Dynamite for the event coming up at the Chicago United Center, along with the way the announcers have posed hints about the huge show being planned without…

AEW Dynamite Fight for the Fallen: 7/28/2021 Review
Tonight’s Dynamite was at the Bojangles Coliseum, Charlotte, North Carolina, which in theory had been a traditionally strong spot for NWA wrestling in the 80s and maybe up to the mid 90s through WCW with Flair, etc. And the spot looked fairly packed with people hot for the opening which would start off with a…
