This is the best thing AEW’s done with Swerve since they signed him
As much as we enjoyed Swerve Strickland’s AEW Tag title run with Keith Lee (especially the part where he did moonsaults off the big man’s chest), calling something “the best thing AEW’s done with Swerve since they signed him” doesn’t require it to clear a terribly high bar. Strickland turning […]
Kaboomers & Colliders will have to co-exist at AEW’s pre-All In taping
While acts definitely seem to be featured more on one show or the other, the reported roster split AEW was considering after Collision’s launch and CM Punk’s return to the company has been a pretty “soft” one. So far, the one hard rule is that Punk and The Elite haven’t […]
AEW’s ‘insane money’ deal reportedly kept WWE from making an offer to RUSH

In a lot of ways, Jeff Hardy fits the bill for the surprise free agent/Forbidden Door slammer Tony Khan is promising will debut for AEW on Dynamite tomorrow (Feb. 9). But the one big potential way he doesn’t is legally. The Charismatic Enigma was released by WWE on or around […]

You know it’s a big deal when it has to be explained five times. After it took AEW owner/president/booker Tony Khan three tweets to spell out the news he promised for last night’s Rampage, which was that there would be news on Dynamite next Wednesday (Feb. 9)… fans were still […]
AEW’s General Manager mobile game drops this week
We’re still waiting for the crown jewel of AEW Games – we’ve seen some development footage of their console fighting simulation, but they haven’t announced a release date. In the meantime, the company has something coming out later this week which should tide fans over a little better than their […]
AEW’s trying to turn WWE midcarders into stars & it might just work
During the Monday Night Wars, wrestlers jumped ship more than pirates and actually turned the tide in one company’s favor for that week. It really felt like sink or swim. After torturing the nautical metaphor to death, let me get to the point: As dope as Andrade El Idolo and […]
AEW’s crossover with Impact now has a title match booked
Matt Hardy recently led AEW’s Private Party over to Impact Wrestling, where they quickly became the top contenders for the Good Brothers’ tag titles. A wild brawl broke out afterwards, because this is pro wrestling, so of course there was a wild brawl. Hardy has been mentoring Isiah Kassidy and […]
