Coming off the biggest WrestleMania in WWE history, AEW badly needed a good AEW Dynamite episode tonight to build on the momentum of wrestling fandom right now, and instead, the dropped the ball again, in a major way.
Some of their worst mistakes of the night revolved around erratic booking and disastrous decision making. Here are just a few from a horrific night for AEW.
Will Ospreay calling out HHH for mentioning his light work schedule.
Right now, HHH is the darling of the pro wrestling world after booking an amazing WrestleMania, and symbolizing the new era has arrived. Sure, Ospreay was responding to HHH’s making a comment about light work schedules in AEW, but it simply wasn’t needed.
Booking Dustin Rhodes in the main event to challenge the Samoan World Champion Samoa Joe.
Do I really need to type something here? I mean, C’MON, are you kidding me? Plus, he made sure to get color during the non-title match as well. This was almost too obvious and if you don’t know what I’m referring too, then you need to stop watching wrestling all together. They had Rhodes lose with a belt shot, almost as if something along those lines was just done a few days ago in a big tag match….
They are already turning Mercedes Mone heel?
In a bizarre interview with Alex Marvez, Mercedes Mone played the Heel the entire time until, yep, you guessed it, another case of “AEW who done it”, the lights went off and she was attacked. Because you know, that is what they do in AEW, turn off the lights 3-5 times in every episode of Dynamite.
FTR gives a rally the troops speech, almost identical to the one Adam “Edge” Copeland gave last week. It came across as desperate and forced, much like Copelands last week.
Last, but far from least, Khan decided to air the Footage from All In Wembley which did nothing but prove Tony Khan a liar, and that CM Punk was telling the truth. It was nothing more than Jack Perry getting put in a head lock after talking trash backstage to Punk. The entire thing was 15 seconds, and broken up almost instantly.
Again, to recap. You blatantly tried to rip off the main event of WrestleMania for no reason at all. You are booking your “star” of the women’s division as an awkward heel, with a terrible “who done it” angle that will go nowhere fast. And finally, you aired footage that no one asked you too, which proved your actual CEO is a liar.
Great job Tony!
