It's the go-home show for Dynasty tomorrow, but it's also 4/20, so AEW is going to get high with a little help from friends... by which I mean put on a shit-ton of tag-team matches and also invite over Rob Van Dam for a "High Flying Elmination Match". [more inside]

Hail the conquering hero, as Jon Moxley returns to AEW having been crowned new IWGP World Heavyweight Champion after defeating Naito at NJPW Windy City Riot.

Tonight, in response to CM Punk’s incendiary comments on Ariel Helwani’s The MMA Hour last week, Tony Khan has decided to show the footage from backstage at All In that led to Punk’s firing.

Collision gallantly delays it's Saturday night start time knowing that it's tough to compete with the first night of WrestleMania XL (the varying quality of the WM matches notwithstanding). As a study in contrasts, AEW offers House Of Black vs. an ad-hoc trio, the return of Yuka Sakazaki, Claudio in singles action, and main-event lucha libre. [more inside]

Dynamite begins preparations for the next pay-per-view in four weeks, as tonight features two separate tag-team qualifying matches, a women's four-way for a title shot, and Swerve Strickland battling Konosuke Takeshita for the #1 spot against Samoa Joe. But the show-stealer might be Will Ospreay having a match against someone he hasn't faced in the ring since 2017. [more inside]
All Elite Wrestling: Dynamite: March 20, 2024 (+ live Rampage following) Season 5, Ep 25
March Madness means we get three hours live tonight, as Rampage gets added on here. Look at this poster. How friggin' sweet is that poster?

Tonight Eddie defends his title against The Rainmaker, Copeland & Christian will make each other suffer, plus TWO women's tag matches, Hook, Jericho, Shibata, Takeshita, Will Ospreay, Mercedes Moné... [more inside]

All Elite Wrestling: Dynamite: AEW Revolution 2024 Season 5, Ep 10000
Tonight the wrestling world sends off an Icon, as Sting -- through a history that encompasses almost 40 years in the business, matches across the world, championships in three companies -- has his final match in the same venue where he faced Ric Flair in 1988. With nearly every title being defended, will the greatest match of the night be Sting and Darby defending their tag belts, Samoa Joe defending against the fire and ice of Hangman Page & Swerve Strickland, or the non-title AEW debut of Will By-God Ospreay? [more inside]

All Elite Wrestling: Dynamite: February 28, 2024 Season 5, Ep 22
Immerse yourself and really feel the history of the moment, as Sting makes his final appearance on a weekly wrestling program before his final match at Revolution. Speaking of history, Chris Jericho will face CMLL's Atlantis Jr., closing a circle that began when "Corazon de Leon" Jericho faced his father the original Atlantis 30 years ago.

All Elite Wrestling: Dynamite: February 21, 2024 Season 5, Ep 21
Dynamite gets a little stochastic in the build to Revolution 10 days away, putting a lot of top names into a six-man main event, lighting the fuse on the FTR vs Blackpool Combat Club, and sending the melodrama into overdrive with a bevy of chilling promos. [more inside]
All Elite Wrestling: Dynamite: February 14, 2024 Season 5, Ep 20
Happy Valentine's Day! Which of the following matchups will find love? Newly-evil Skye Blue vs "Nothing Matters, Smile Anyway" Willow Nightingale? Even newly-er evil Young Bucks vs "Please stay healthy" Top Flight? Orange Cassidy defending his International title in a Texas Death Match vs. Matt Taven? Trick question: the answer is probably Toni Storm loving her own reflection when she debuts her new "fil-UM". [more inside]

Tonight, "Hangman" Adam Page and Swerve Strickland have their third (and maybe final?) match. Darby Allin and Sting will pit themselves against Absolute Ricky and Big Bill for the AEW World Tag Team Championship in a Tornado Tag Match. And Blackpool Combat Club's three killers will face CMLL's finest in their own trios match. Which match will be scarier to the audience and bloodier for the participants?

All Elite Wrestling: Dynamite: January 24, 2024 Season 5, Ep 17

Special Event: Ring Of Honor: Final Battle 2023
It has been a wild year for Ring of Honor since last year's Final Battle. After tragically losing ROH mainstay Jay Briscoe in January this year, the company rebuilt itself following Tony Khan's 2022 purchase and resumed national tours. Talent from ROH and All Elite Wrestling have been mingling all year, and with the ROH World Championship and the Tag Team Championships locked down in AEW storylines, the show has compensated by adding emotionally rich grudge matches and some out-of-town spectacle to the normal lineup. Tonight's show, like all of Ring of Honor dating back to 2002, can be watched by members of Honor Club at the ROH website. [more inside]
All Elite Wrestling: Dynamite: December 13, 2023: Winter Is Coming Season 5, Ep 11
Tonight is synergy-a-plenty, as Dynamite airs from Dallas and celebrates the Von Erichs, which also handily promotes The Iron Claw (coming soon to theaters featuring MJF in a teeny tiny role), while also finishing the remaining matches for the Continental Classic.

AEW Collision: December 9, 2023 (& Rampage, December 8) Season 1, Ep 26
Some tournament hopes are dashed, because the Continental Classic is a points-based tournament... and the numbers don't lie. Also, Kenny Omega in singles action, Pirate Bryan Danielson wrestles twice this week, and some smark favorites (Abadon! Danhausen! Orange Cassidy!) show up to play. Rampage and Collision were both pre-taped in Canada last week, so if the crowd seemed extra behind certain talent, now you know why. [more inside]
All Elite Wrestling: Dynamite: December 6, 2023 Season 5, Ep 10
Three more Continental Classic matches will attempt to thrill the audience, while MJF and Samoa Joe fight the Devil, Adam Copeland and Christian lock up for the first 1-v-1 match in AEW, and Toni Storm gets that Turner Classic Movies rub. [more inside]
AEW Collision: December 2, 2023 (& Dec 1 Rampage) Season 1, Ep 25
Bryan Danielson won't allow an orbital bone fracture and a Solid Snake eyepatch keep him from having his first match in AEW's Continental Classic. In fact, Collision has three CC matches, plus more enticements leading to the end-of-year PPVs. (This post going up late because I traveling until late Monday.) [more inside]
All Elite Wrestling: Dynamite: November 29, 2023 Season 5, Ep 9
With a certain soda-pop-enthusiast deciding to overturn his principles at another company, what will AEW do this week? Why, continue it's G1-style Continental Classic tournament. Also, Julia Hart is a (spooky) fighting champion, and "The Patriarch" Christian Cage is very disappointed in you. [more inside]
AEW Collision: November 25, 2023 (& Rampage) Season 1, Ep 24
Tony Khan has taken the ballsy move of keeping Collision on Saturday night and also moving Rampage back a day, creating a three-hour block to counter-program against WWE's Survivor Series. Tonight, the Continental Classic prelims continue, House of Black vs. luchadors, and Keith Lee vs. Lee Moriarty #LeeFight [more inside]

[more inside]
AEW Collision: November 17, 2023 (& Rampage) Season 1, Ep 23
Collision moved a day up to make room for the Full Gear PPV on Saturday, effectively forming a three-hour block with Rampage. It's the go-home show, what surprises are in store? [more inside]
All Elite Wrestling: Dynamite: Dynamite 11/15/23 Season 5, Ep 7
It's the last Dynamite before Full Gear. (Rampage will be rolled into the Collision post, since Collision will run on Friday this week.) All the men's matches announced for tonight are tag matches -- because why shouldn't this promotion play to their strengths? -- and the women's segment has implications for Saturday's TBS title match. [more inside]

All Elite Wrestling: Dynamite: Dynamite 11/8/23 and Rampage 11/10/23 Season 5, Ep 6
Dynamite from Portland needs to asks two big questions when we're two Saturdays from now at Full Gear: Who else is coming for MJF's title? And is anyone else going to steal the show on the way there? [more inside]
AEW Collision: November 4, 2023 Season 1, Ep 21
The Acclaimed celebrate their 69th day as AEW champs (nice), while Darby Allin practices for his 2024 trek to Everest by attempting to climb "The Murderhawk" Lance Archer. [more inside]
