Solid, solid show. Thought it was pretty good top to bottom.

On another note, I usually defend JR when people come at him about his performance on the mic..but he’s lost a step on the mic/as an announcer. Last night it was noticeable. He had numerous slip-ups, brought zero energy (to say the least; I’d say he took energy away from the broadcast actually), and didn’t bring it in the big moments. I’m not saying he doesn’t have a place at all — but I don’t think he needs to be there weekly or even at every PPV. Taz/Tony/X should be the way to go.

Brock Anderson… hmm. Wasn’t impressed with him, at all. He looked just pudgy/out of shape, and isn’t a big guy or anything. Didn’t look like he really knew what he was doing out there either — looked pretty green. Not knocking the guy, but other than being Arn’s son, I didn’t see much of any reason for him to be on national TV at this point.

Jericho can be such a baby sometimes, crying about people making fun of the Blood & Guts bump.

Is it just me or did Jim Ross just screw up and say "there's nothing like a live event of WWE Dynamite"? Lol

Still, it was a well-done event, and I don't think his goof marred it. Gotta admit I choked up when they revisited the John Huber tribute for a moment.

No it didn't ruin anything at all. Was making sure I heard what I thought I did though. Lol

He kinda reminds me of Curt Hennig's son, tbh - for better or worse.

I'm excited that I have a reason to watch AEW more consistently, now.

The amount of talent that WWE wastes is appalling

"Tommy End or whatever he's gonna be called"

"THAT IS MALACHI BLACK!!!"

That exchange kinda ruined it for me

Yeah, that was a confusing way to verbally debut him. “That’s Tommy End, a man I wrestled 15 years ago. But somethings different, that’s NOT Tommy End — that’s Malachi Black!”

Just a weird choice of words. But the debut did get a little pop out of me, happy to see Alesteir.

I like Black in AEW, think we and Andrade could do some great things

Also, no mention of Britt's knockout punch to WWE about blood money and Saudi? That was a great line.

The knockout punch will be when she gets Cole to AEW
