What a week AEW has had! Last week’s episode of Dynamite was easily the most talked about episode I can remember, with the show trending on Twitter late into the night. It was a jam packed show, from the Dynamite Diamond Battle Royal to the debut of Sting to Kenny Omega’s controversial win over Jon Moxley and his subsequent flight to Impact wrestling with Don Callis. It was a show so full of goodies that I was able to temporarily forget that Cody Rhodes is in an angle with Shaquille O’Neal.

This week’s show has a lot to look forward to as well! We’ll hear from Kenny Omega who will hopefully shed some light on AEW’s working relationship with Impact going forward and maybe hype his upcoming AAA Mega Championship defense against Laredo Kid at Triplemanía on December 12th. Sting and Shaq (both legends of the squared circle) will sit down for interviews with Tony Schiavone, The Varsity Blondes (Brian Pillman Jr. & Griff Garrison) debut against FTR, and MJF and Orange Cassidy square off for the Dynamite Diamond Ring.
The Dynamite Diamond Final will take place on #AEWDynamite, as @The_MJF & @orangecassidy square off for the Dynamite Diamond Ring!

Tony Khan has promised that even more big surprises lie ahead in the coming weeks, and I hope that they can keep up the streak of excellent shows without relying on too many shocking reveals/returns/debuts (you can only interview Shaq so many times before it gets old, right?). They certainly have the roster depth to book great matches and interesting storylines going forward, and with the addition of Impacts Knockouts division maybe we’ll even see them book a compelling women’s storyline! The sky’s the limit!
