There\u2019s a lot of exciting stuff happening in their orbit, and tonight we have another branded edition of Dynamite. I\u2019m most looking forward to the young talent being featured this week (The Acclaimed, Top Flight, whoever Shida is squashing) and think that the in-ring time on AEW Dark is really starting to payoff for the company and wrestlers both. For example, after last week\u2019s show, I went back and watched the Bucks\/Private Party tag team tournament match and there has been a HUGE improvement in almost every aspect of Private Party\u2019s work, which I (maybe mistakenly, so correct me if I\u2019m wrong) attribute to their near-weekly appearances on Dark. We\u2019re seeing a lot of raw talent come in and get a chance to develop with access to ring time and veterans that they never had on the indies and I love it.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>RECOMMENDED: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/2020\/12\/16\/12-16-aew-dynamite-tv-report-kellers-report-on-cody-vs-angelico-acclaimed-vs-scu-hardy-private-party-vs-hangman-silver-reynolds-ivelisse-diamante-vs-big-swole-serena-deeb\/\">12\/16 AEW DYNAMITE TV REPORT: Keller\u2019s report on Cody vs. Angelico, Acclaimed vs. SCU, Hardy &amp; Private Party vs. Hangman &amp; Silver &amp; Reynolds, Ivelisse &amp; Diamante vs. Big Swole &amp; Serena Deeb<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"pwtor-end-article-groups pwtor-entity-placement\" id=\"pwtor-3816652162\"><div id=\"pwtor-1646930639\"><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: HOLIDAY BASH DECEMBER 23, 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.
