[6.0] "It was fine but overall underwhelming. The tag title match was good, and was my MOTN, and the main event was alright, but there isn't much else going on other than that. MJF did a good job on the delivery of his promo, but the US election theme and the references to criticism of AEW just feel a bit off."

[5.0] "One of the most hyped up AEW Dynamite episodes ever, and it underdelivered to hell. With the matches of Cody vs. Warhorse, Omega and Hangman vs Dark Order, and Allin and Moxley vs. Cage and Starks in a Street Fight, who would have thought it could. But oh boy. And it's all because of the pacing. These matches felt rushed because they had no time that they could have easily given."

[10 Man Tag] - 2 3/4 stars (Match of the Night). [Cody vs Warhorse] - 2 stars. [Hangman/Omega vs Dark Order] - 2 1/2 stars. [Hikaru vs Diamante] - 1 star (Worst of the Night). [Tornado tag] - 2 1/2 stars. Average match rating: 2. 15 of 5 stars (or 4. 3 of 10). Rounded to 4 for Cagematch."

MJF's promo was an obvious highlight, and man do I hope they put the title on him. Overall, not a BAD show, but the worst from AEW in quite a while."

[2.0] "This show was just bad for the most part. Highlight was clearly the MJF promo but besides that, there was not much. The Opener was just way too much chaos and I am getting tired of the whole OC vs. Chris Jericho feud. AEW need to put OC off TV for a while, he is starting to loose what made him special. These shows without crowd don't do his character any favors either. Cody vs. Warhorse was an okay match but man, I am not a fan of Warhorse. What happened after the match was bad on so many levels. First REYNOLDS AND SILVER, the two main jobbers of the Dark Order, jump Cody, and who comes out to save him from this terrible threat? ZACK F'N RYDER. The man who was popular for a while, when he "invented" getting over on the internet. I do not want to see Zack Ryder in AEW and I am not sure what he is supposed to do in AEW. Cody and Zack Ryder take on Reynolds & Silver next week... Great! The AEW Tag Team Title Match was passable. Also next wednesday, we gonna get 3 of the best Tag Teams in AEW vs. the rest of The Dark Order. I just cannot see The Dark Order in this match as a big threat. They don't work at all in this spot, even though I think the story with Colt Cabana is fine, but more suited to be lower on the card. I guess the 6 vs. 6 next week is just to play off the whole Kenny & The Young Bucks vs. Hangman & FTR story they have going on. Excalibur missing on commentary also didn't do the show any good. Hopefully he will be back next week. Shida vs. Diamante was not good and this is mostly on Diamante. While I like her, she is just not a good wrestler. For the style she wrestles, she is just way too slow. This match included multiple botches. Thankfully Shida won the match. For a second I was worried that AEW utilizes WWE booking and let Diamante pin Shida in this No-Title Match, only to setup a Titlematch later. MJF's promo was the best part of the show. The Main Event started with a decent promo by Taz and Starks. Brian Cage did what he does best, which is standing there and showing his muscles off. The Match itself was just way too short. The finish with Darby pinning Starks was not a good decision in my opinion. Cage/Starks really needed a win here to look like threat and gain some momentum. In summary I did not really enjoy this show. The Wrestling was below average or even bad and they put too much spotlight on the wrong people (at least in my opinion). After 3 really good TV shows, this is a major setback again and I would not be surprised if NXT wins in viewership next week."

[4.0] "A very good tag team match between Page / Omega and Grayson / Uno and a successful promo from MJF, everything else navigates between medium and very bad, it's a shame because the opener had the potential to be huge but they don't 'have not even given 50% of their talent, the main event is also very disappointing and far too short."

[8.0] "I thought this was a really fun episode. The 10 man tag to start was a bit dodgy but had some good spots and advanced several storylines **1/2. Cody vs. Warhorse was really fun and they did a great job putting over Warhorse and who he is. The match was just about the right length ****. Page & Omega vs. Dark Order was well worked and I was genuinely very surprised when the champs went over clean as I saw this as an opportunity to use the Dark Order as transitional champs, not super exciting wrestling though ***. Shida vs. Diamante was a bit of an extended squash *1/2. Allin & Moxley vs. Cage & Starks was mediocre except for the wicked spot with the thumbtack skateboard on Starks' back to end the match. That was a really wicked spot and not something I knew Starks was willing to do ***1/2. Overally a very satisfying show."

Bad matches, bad promos, absolutely embarrassing debuts from the depths of bad indie wrestlers and useless WWE castoffs. What in the hell happened?"

[4.0] "Bad Dynamite. It didn't help that it was overhyped by both fans and the company on social media. Opener was hilariously bad, and so was the commentary. My first impression from Warhorse was less than stellar. He is to Ultimate Warrior what Gillberg was to Goldberg. Cardona was a decent surprise, thank god they didn't hype up his debut. FTR segment was good. Kenny trying to do his entrance while Page was beaten 1v2 was kinda dumb but hilarious. The tag title match was the only good match of the night. MJF's & Starks' promos were great. The final two matches sucked, I really dislike Darby and have no interest in him hanging around the main event. Edit: Almost forgot... CAMERON? WTF."

[5.0] "This was a pretty disappointing show overall. The opener was a clusterfuck from the get-go and while it they tried for flip-flop wrestling, a bit of light comedy and " working the crowd" , all of these fell flat without a real audience. Cody and Warhorse had the best match of the night, because it was seemingly the only match where the commentary was invested and concentrated on the match. Excalibur was sorely missed, as Ross was horrible and Taz was not able to get him to concentrate on being anything else than an old, out-of-touch man for most of the night. The tag team title match was a good match, but without the aforementioned focus by the commentary, it looked more chaotic than it was. Uno and Grayson had some great moves and deserve better. At least the story with FTR is moving forward. Shida tried to have an okay match with Diamante, but miscommunication seemed to be the concept of the night. The best things of the night happened almost back to back: MJF was fantastic, even if he trailed off a little bit in his state of the industry address, but his delivery, his intensity and everything he did added credibility to his character, the promotion and his claim. He is going to make a fantastic champion one day. Then Ricky Starks cut a pretty good promo as well, giving himself and Cage some character before the main event. He's ready for prime time, no doubt. The main event then was seemingly rushed because the had not enough time left, so everything looked a bit off. Starks taking the thumbtacks to the back looked brutal and was a credible finisher for the match being so short, but aside from Taz playing up his character, again, the commentary ruined it for me. Excalibur, please come back soon."

[6.0] "MJF and Mr. Brodie Lee stole the show. Mox hasn't had a good run in my opinion. Jericho's run was much better and interesting as compared to Moxley. This feud with Cage isn't really interesting for me. His only good feud was with Brodie Lee wven though it came out of nowhere bcoz Mr. Lee is an amazing worker. MJF stole the show with his amazing delivery of a mid level promo making it his own."

[6.0] "A little underwhelming, considering the strength of this card on paper. The opening ten man tag was a bit of a mess, with a few too many contrived dives and subversions of the rules. It was fun in places, especially when OC or Luchasaurus were involved, but the finish was pretty cheap and ultimately it's a skippable match. Cody vs Warhorse was pretty good by the end - unsurprisingly for a Cody match, its strength lies in its storytelling - but Warhorse does feel a little inexperienced despite all his charisma. The tag title match also took a little while to find its flow but it was excellent once it did, although the finish felt a little flat and considering how long Dark Order have been gunning for the titles, this was a bit of an anti-climax. Hikaru vs Diamante was an actively bad match, with the strikes often looking weak and Diamante's movements looking sluggish and sloppy. Both women can definitely do better and nobody looked good as a result of this; this was unfortunately the worst Dynamite match in some time. MJF's promo was a mixed bag - obviously he can talk for days and he was as loathsome as ever, but it was a little too meta for my liking and was arguably so critical of AEW that it actually made the promotion look a bit bad. The main event was fun, although I'd have liked it to be a bit longer, and while the finish move was brutal it didn't exactly look like a match-winning KO. Overall, a decent show with noticeable flaws, and missing Excalibur behind the commentary desk really seemed to throw everybody else there off their game."

[10.0] "Such a good show, I personally find it better than the last week. Thr tag title match was amazing, finally seeing what the Smash Bros can really do. Also, further advancing the Page story in good fashion. Loved Cardona's debut and Cody's match, and the main event was pure action. MJF is money."

[8.0] "Excalibur severely missed today. If he was there calling in the booth this would have been an entirely different show. Also the humidity is really catching upto the Wrestlers. But overall I wouldn't take anything of this show. Because storylines got build. AEW always catches fire when approaching a PPV, we are officially on the road to All Out and the shows for the next few weeks are gonna be good."

[8.0] "Good show, good main event... But maybe Inner Circle should have win, and Dark Order too. What I don't like is that the heel turn of Keny Omega wasn't shown during this show... Solid ending in the Main Event, 8/10"
