The 5,500 seat arena first hosted AEW\u2019s Fight for the Fallen in July 2019 and will be home to AEW productions for the foreseeable future. For the first time since late March, the general public will be admitted and seated in a socially spaced set-up at 10-15 percent of the arena&#8217;s capacity.<\/p>\n<h3>Top 5 AEW Moments 8\/22\/20<\/h3>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Top 5 AEW Moments 8\/22\/20\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/0syAXPX3m28?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>AEW Dark Results<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Best Friends defeated Demetri Jackson &amp; Storm Thomas<\/li>\n<li>Shawn Spears defeated Jessy Sorensen<\/li>\n<li>Mel defeated Red Velvet<\/li>\n<li>Lance Archer defeated D3<\/li>\n<li>Luther &amp; Serpentico defeated The Initiative<\/li>\n<li>Nyla Rose defeated KiLynn King<\/li>\n<li>The Gunn Club (Billy &amp; Austin Gunn) defeated Baron Black &amp; Frank Stone<\/li>\n<li>Penelope Ford defeated Heather Monroe<\/li>\n<li>Santana &amp; Ortiz defeated Metro Brothers<\/li>\n<li>Ricky Starks defeated Shawn Dean<\/li>\n<li>Jake Hager defeated Marko Stunt<\/li>\n<li>Kip Sabian defeated Frankie Kazarian<\/li>\n<li>The Hybrid 2 defeated Joey Janela &amp; Sonny Kiss<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Latest Rankings Released<\/h3>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Official <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/AEW?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#AEW<\/a> Rankings as of Wednesday, August 26th, 2020 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/oYBf11u0dl\">pic.twitter.com\/oYBf11u0dl<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; All Elite Wrestling (@AEW) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AEW\/status\/1298719365232300032?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August 26, 2020<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<h3>Dynamite Matches and Segments<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Chris Jericho on Commentary<\/li>\n<li>Update on Cody\u2019s Status<\/li>\n<li>The Butcher &amp; The Blade &amp; Rey Fenix &amp; Pentagon Jr vs. Brian Pillman Jr. &amp; Griff Garrison &amp; Sonny Kiss &amp; Joey Janela<\/li>\n<li>Britt Baker &amp; Reba &amp; Penelope Ford vs. Big Swole in a three-on0one handicap match<\/li>\n<li>Best Friends, FTR, Young Bucks, and The Natural Nightmares &#8211; Tag Team Gauntlet Match, the winner gets a title shot at All Out<\/li>\n<li>Matt Hardy vs. Sammy Guevara &#8211; Tables Match<\/li>\n<li>Mr. Brodie Lee Championship Celebration<\/li>\n<li>AEW Champion Jon Moxley and MJF contract signing<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Final Thoughts<\/h3>\n<p>First of all, I\u2019d like to apologize for not having a Primer for you on Saturday. I was in an emotionally confusing and vulnerable state and didn\u2019t think I could do it justice. On one hand, I was still mourning the loss that Scorpio Sky suffered at the hands of Cody Rhodes two weeks ago, and on the other hand, I was celebrating Kayfabe News finally following me on Twitter. As Scorpio Sky\u2019s unofficial (for now) hype man I was devastated, but as a comedian and wrestling fan I was elated to get the nod from KN.<\/p>\n<p>Truly a tumultuous time.<\/p>\n<p>But we\u2019re back! And exciting things are happening! Tonight\u2019s card has three gimmick matches (a Handicap, Gauntlet, and Tables match) which should be fun. My only complaint is that the Tag Team Gauntlet Match makes it clear (again) that the idea of top-5 rankings isn\u2019t something that AEW is taking very seriously. I\u2019ve written about this before, so I will be brief, but it seems like the rankings weren\u2019t really thought through (from a kayfabe perspective) and keep leading to confusing matchups and title shots. I love the idea, but I wish that there was a little bit more effort put in to make it all make sense.<\/p>\n<p>Last week another NWA talent showed up on Dynamite &#8211; and with her belt! Thunder Rosa, the reigning NWA Women\u2019s Champion, appeared and challenged AEW Women\u2019s Champion Hikaru Shida to a match at All Out. Rosa is a tremendous indie-talent whose work I enjoyed quite a bit on NWA Powerrr, and her and Shida should put on a great match. With the NWA on hold and Eddie Kingston and Thunder Rosa already on board, are we counting down to NWA World\u2019s Champion Nick Aldis appearing on Dynamite? I really hope so. Cody Rhodes even named him as a \u201cdream challenger\u201d for the TNT Championship last month!<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>RECOMMENDED:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/2020\/08\/22\/8-22-aew-dynamite-tv-report-kellers-report-on-saturday-night-special-with-cody-vs-brodie-lee-ftr-vs-private-party-moxley-speaks-mjf-speaks\/\">8\/22 AEW DYNAMITE TV REPORT: Keller\u2019s report on Saturday night special with Cody vs. Brodie Lee, FTR vs. Private Party, Moxley speaks, MJF speaks<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"pwtor-end-article-groups pwtor-entity-placement\" id=\"pwtor-3124833404\"><div id=\"pwtor-2543296451\"><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 AUGUST 27, 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, Fla.
