I could see this being a week where NXT tops Dynamite in the ratings since they are airing a Takeover card.
I mean if they don't tonight they never likely will. |

NXT has TakeOver branding on the show, but feels like they didn't really promote it as a TakeOver special... would have gotten bigger ratings if they called it a two week TakeOver special I think...

Supposedly advertisers stopped paying for those type of ads once sports started cancelling their seasons left and right. |

Then again, spoilers for the show also started popping up a couple hours before the show started since someone got a hold of the taping and uploaded it online. Had CoronaMania not ruined things, NXT probably would have had a strong chance to beat AEW for TakeOver's go-home show. |

That ending was pretty interesting.
When was the last time someone got pinned while being in a submission? |

Just like Jericho, I've never seen anyone get pinned in the fig. 4

Dynamite was pretty enjoyable overall. Not one of their stronger episodes in terms of ring action but the video packages and promos were one of their best.
Felt more like a filler to get to next week's show though but Jericho as guest commentator was way better than Omega and Cody. |

From when she cut her first heel promo she's basically the worst person to be sat next to at a restaurant. She just lets the hot takes fly with no fucks given of who she offends sitting around her.

Dynamite's been a godsend to my wrestling fandom the past 6 months. Not every episode has been great but even the ones that aren't great are still relatively easy watches in my book. I don't get mad at myself for investing the time like I did for countless Raws. The product's not for everyone and people are entitled to their opinion, but it definitely works for me.
Hopefully they mix in some stuff outside of the Marshall training center. Seems likely that's what they're doing with the Mox/Hager match next week. Plus the Bucks filmed matches in their own ring. Apparently MJF will film some matches at Curt Hawkins' wrestling school in Long Island once conditions in NY improve a bit. |

Agreed. It is def not for everyone, and not everything is great, but it is all watchable. Their empty arena shows have still managed to be very entertaining. Jericho on commentary was great. Still wish Matt Hardy would go away though. I sincerely tried to get into his Broken//Damascus thing when he did it the first time. It was "different" but still too much for me. |

I wishthere was a build to the Hardy stuff. Like, he comes in as normal Matt Hardy, and something happens that causes him to start losing it, and then he turns into Damascus after a few months. Last nights vignette wasn't bad other than the drone being sentient apparently.
Other than that, I love most of what aew is doing. It's not perfect, and they're shit I wish they'd ditch, but overall I enjoy it and I'm glad they're still pumping out content. |

I watched the tag from this week, because I heard even Kenny Omega fans talking shit about it. Hahaha, this promotion is so fucked.

Never seen someone so excited to spew hate, other than hate groups.
Its kinda sad, honestly. |

Hate’s a strong word. Apathy and bemusement would be better.

But yes, let’s compare people who think AEW is shit to hate groups.
