My favorite professional wrestling league, All Elite Wrestling celebrates 300 episodes of its flagship show, “AEW Dynamite”. I have been there from the very beginning, and It’s hard to believe we are at this important milestone. AEW features Will Ospreay, Mercedes Mone, Toni Storm, Swerve Strickland, Jon Moxley, Thunder Rosa, Megan Bayne, and Kenny Omega. AEW, here is to 300 more episodes of Dynamite!
Some seek ascension, some seek redemption.
I am a big All Elite Wrestling fan, and tonight is the Double or Nothing Pay Per View extravaganza from Glendale, Arizona. I don’t get every PPV because they are $50 each, but something tells me some good stuff is going to happen tonight, so I am splurging a little.
Most folks are focused on the Owen Hart Tournament Finals and the Anarchy In The Arena matches. I think Will Ospreay will win the men’s final and Jamie Hayter will win the women’s final. In The Anarchy In The Arena match, I think Kenny Omega, Swerve Strickland, The Opps and Willow Nightingale will win.
I am also looking to see who will return to action and who will appear for the first time as a new to AEW talent. It’s going to be very exciting. Everything starts at 6:30 for the pre-show and the buy-in matches. I cannot wait to see what happens.
Tonight is about more screens. The TV is running Survivor and the laptop is running All Elite Wrestling Dynamite. Reality and wrestling are favorites in our house. Thank goodness for broadband Internet.
Tonight is a historic evening as AEW Dynamite becomes the longest running professional wrestling program in Turner Broadcasting History. I am happy for all who have made this happen. I am thankful for the history of WCW Nitro who set the table for today’s pro wrestling on TV. Here is to many more episodes of Dynamite and Collision.
What is happening in AEW, NJPW, Stardom, CMLL, Rev Pro, and ROH is what professional wrestling should be. World-class competition provides opportunities to men and women all across the globe. Professional wrestling should never be restricted to one company. I also want to elevate the independent promotions who are providing local action in their communities. We should never diminish any athlete or the promotion they work for that wants to make the sport the best it can be.
