Biased Thoughts: AEW Dynamite #208
1st Bank Center, Broomfield. Colorado. 3k Tickets Sold. September 27th 2023
Rey Fenix vs Jeff Jarrett for the AEW International Championship (**3/4) Solid, Fenix is a really great babyface and Jarrett was decent. Some very good spots and V1 for Rey Fénix. I expect a lot of great matches in this reign.
I´m tired of MJF and Cole skits but I have to be honest and admit that The Giant appearing made me laugh.
Don Callis segment, a lot of boos and as well with Takeshita, Sammy Guevara appeared too, Takeshita beat the shit out of Ibushi and the video worked really well and I´m really looking forward for Ibushi vs Takeshita. The most solid promo from Guevara in a while. Great segment.
Nick Jackson vs Brian Cage vs Claudio Castagnoli for a shot for the AEW International Championship (***3/4) Some of the most impressive athletes having an amazing spotfest. They delivered what I wanted. This was awesome.
Orange Cassidy vs Penta El Zero Miedo vs Matt Jackson vs Austin Gunn (***1/4) Canadian Destroyers RAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!
Julia Hart vs Willow Nightingale (NR) My power went off because of rain but I heard it was solid.
Swerve Strickland and Hangman Page contract signing was what I want in my wrestling, violence great promos. Can´t wait for the match and WrestleDream looks FANTASTIC.
Rating of the Show: 8/10
This show was really good on building up a lot of things not only for the PPV but for the mid to long term for AEW. Jay White was fantastic, same for Swerve and Hangman. We didn´t get an outstanding match BUT we got a very good one mixed with great promos so I think this show was a W.
Extra Notes
- I think the people that attacked Jay White were LFI.
- Really curious about the hierarchy in the Don Callis Family.
