I really enjoyed this show. Even with the draw ending, Omega vs bryan was one of the best matches I've seen on Free TV. THIS is the Kenny omega I've wanted to see since aew began, and it's the first instance I can think of, where his performance matched the quality of his njpw run.
I also want to point out a moment that shows what an amazing commentator Tony Schiavone is. When Bryan kicked out of the avalanche dragon suplex, Tony explained he was able to do so because he flipped and landed on his stomach. NO ONE ELSE DOES THIS. Any other commentator would have just freaked out and talked about Bryan's resilience despite the fact that it's pretty unbelievable that anyone could kick out of that no matter how resilient they are. Tony's analysis of the kickoff is a small touch but stuff like that adds so much to an already great match. Cornette is right that wrestling is at its best when it makes sense, and Tony helped them have a huge moment while still keeping it grounded in reality.
