I\u2019m a huge mark for absurd comedy gimmicks, and Cassidy has one of the best. We saw some of the gimmick\u2019s potential in his AEW Revolution match against Pac, but I believe that we\u2019ll see it reach new heights against one of the greatest performers of all time, Chris Jericho.<\/p>\n<p>I have two complaints about The Young Bucks &amp; FTR vs. The Butcher &amp; The Blade and The Lucha Bros:<\/p>\n<p>(1) Stop calling The Young Bucks or FTR the best tag team in the world. AEW has World Tag Team Champions and every time their Twitter or their announcers talk about any other team being the best in the world they are reminding me that the championships are meaningless or at least an afterthought. Protect your belts so that I have a reason to get invested in your storytelling.<\/p>\n<p>(2) Eight-man tag team matches are the worst. Eight people are too many people, especially in a company that already too sloppy with tag team rules and matches. Three of my favorite tag teams are in this match, but I can\u2019t get myself excited about the cluster that\u2019s about to happen.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>CATCH UP&#8230;<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/2020\/07\/01\/7-1-aew-dynamite-tv-report-kellers-report-on-fyter-fest-week-1-special-edition-including-cody-vs-jake-hager-for-tnt-title-page-omega-vs-best-friends-for-aew-tag-titles-shida-vs-ford-f\/\">7\/1 AEW DYNAMITE TV REPORT (UPDATED ANALYSIS): Keller\u2019s report on Fyter Fest Week 1 special edition including Cody vs. Jake Hager for TNT Title, Page &amp; Omega vs. Best Friends for AEW Tag Titles, Shida vs. Ford for Women\u2019s Title<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"pwtor-end-article-groups pwtor-entity-placement\" id=\"pwtor-767835362\"><div id=\"pwtor-1764209639\"><div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280\" id=\"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\nTHANK YOU FOR VISITING<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>AEW DYNAMITE PRIMER JULY 8, 2020 AIRS ON TNT, 8:00 PM EST BY JOSHUA CHAMBERS (@Josh_Chambers), PWTORCH CONTRIBUTOR Arena This week\u2019s episode will emanate from Daily\u2019s Place in Jacksonville, Florida.
