Coming from the Wintrust Arena in Chicago, IL, Dynamite was in CM Punk’s hometown the night before Thanksgiving Day. Generally, in my experience the vast majority of pro-wrestling shows done before a major holiday end up becoming a parody of itself just due to the inevitable involvement of some angle to pull in the holiday…

Brought to you from the Indiana Farmer’s Coliseum in Indianapolis, Indiana, this was the Dynamite go home show before Full Gear this Saturday. There is still one more major show before Full Gear with Friday’s live Rampage but we’ll talk about that later. This show felt a lot more exciting than usual and there were…

Dynamite came from Independence, MO at the Cable Dahmer Arena. Not a huge arena from what I could tell (5k roughly) but it looked pretty packed and seemed like the first time, which I know of at least, for AEW doing a show there. The show had a different feeling mostly because of the recent…

Another AEW Dynamite hailing from Agganis Arena in Boston, MA, which I think is the first time AEW has been to Boston. JR mentioned that fans had purchased their tickets from a while back and because of the pandemic, had been waiting for quite some time. The building was sold out and they even opened…

This show hailed from Addition Financial Arena in Orlando, FL and was pretty packed and hot for AEW. This is the last live Saturday night show for Dynamite and came before Impact’s Bound for Glory PPV. So tons of wrestling this night with the oddity being that Christian Cage was on the other show. However,…

This was the 2nd night of the James L. Knight Center Miami, Florida Saturday night special for Dynamite. Joining the broadcast team again was CM Punk and this show seemed a little livelier than the first night.

Coming from Philadelphia, PA at the Liacouras Center, this show started off without any introductions on TV and went straight into the opening bout. To see the entrances, you would have to check out Twitter as everyone’s except Bryan Danielson’s ended up playing.

From Rochester New York at the Blue Cross Arena, AEW had its second night in New York, which normally has been associated with the WWE. Coming after the major Grand Slam event at the Arthur Ashe Stadium, this event was different because it was dedicated in memory to Brodie Lee. And for that they announced…

This is it. This is the big Queens, New York Arthur Ashe Stadium event. Easily, this show is AEW’s current largest event and one of the biggest non-WWE shows since 1999 when WCW was putting on shows. Quite honestly, I think they should have done this venue for a PPV instead but they attempted to…

From the Prudential Center in Newark, NJ, this event was sold out with a reported 13k crowd. A pretty big deal considering that this is one of AEW’s go-home shows before next week’s massive Athur Ashe Stadium show in New York. Nonetheless, pretty much this was primarily a build up show with a few bright…
