Matt Sydal was given more offense than his position on the roster would suggest. Nonetheless, Kenny Omega increased Sydal\u2019s stock while still winning definitively. Jim Ross made a big deal out of Sydal being on a winning streak, so we could see Sydal in a more prominent underdog babyface role going forward. It\u2019s equally possible that they juiced up Sydal for one great match to kick off Dynamite.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hangman Page vs. Cezar Bononi &#8211; MISS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A quick squash win for Hangman. Despite him beating Matt Hardy and getting his friends in the Dark Order, he still feels like a mid to lower card act. It feels like AEW is either holding him back to go full throttle when the attendance is larger or they just don\u2019t know what to do with him. Becoming the leader of the Dark Order seems like the logical next step, but that doesn\u2019t feel right at all for the Hangman character. His actions would suggest the same.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Britt Baker Promo &#8211; HIT<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Britt Baker is well on her way to becoming the biggest female star in wrestling. Coming off her historical main event last week, she came firing back the microphone this week. She criticized the fans while putting herself over as a hardcore legend. Baker has been firing on all cylinders and should be in line to earn some wins on her way to a championship match.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Varsity Blondes &amp; Dante Martin vs. FTR &amp; Shawn Spears &#8211; MISS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There had to have been some miscommunication between those in the ring and the production crew. The match was quite short and a lot of action happened during the picture in picture. When they came back, Spears hit a Death Valley Driver for the win. A disappointing presentation for the match, but after the match, several Pinnacle members cut a promo in the ring. MJF bashed Jericho who hasn\u2019t been seen since The Inner Circle was attacked. Everyone looked good as The Pinnacle remains a fresh group in the company.<\/p><div id=\"pwtor-1786899471\" class=\"pwtor-content pwtor-entity-placement\"><div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280 __336x280\" id=\"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p><strong>QT Marshall Promo &#8211; MISS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Wait a second, I thought QT was dating the Bunny, but now he\u2019s revealing he\u2019s been a married man of many years? It\u2019s clear they want people to forget that story existed. I continue to be baffled by the amount of time AEW puts into QT and giving him prominent spots. Thankfully QT outlined in a work shoot format that the reason for that is because he is \u201cCody\u2019s friend.&#8221; Cody came out with a hurt arm and agreed to an exhibition match against QT. Presumably, QT will surprise Cody and perhaps upset him leading to a full heel turn. I have my reservations about this one, but Cody has proven himself to be a great storyteller.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Young Bucks &amp; Brandon Cutler vs. The Lucha Bros &amp; Laredo Kid &#8211; HIT<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I mean\u2026 of course this match was awesome! The Young Bucks and The Lucha Bros are magic every time they\u2019re in the ring together. Laredo Kid was a fantastic addition in place of Pac who is dealing with an injury. Cutler even had his moments to shine. After the match, Omega cut a promo about dissension with the Young Bucks and gave them one last chance to join him by demanding a Too Sweet gesture. The Bucks declined and The Lucha Bros super-kicked Omega. Several matches with Omega and The Bucks are setup for down the line and I can\u2019t wait to see them.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Nyla Rose vs. Tay Conti &#8211; HIT<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>AEW has built up a number of talents in the women\u2019s division. Tay Conti isn\u2019t always a name that gets brought up, but she continues to show her future potential. In a matter of months she has improved greatly.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Darby Allin vs. John Silver &#8211; HIT<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A hard fought match between these two. Both men took a tremendous amount of punishment diving out of the ring and selling for one another. John Silver is a quirky character that didn\u2019t gel well with Allin, but the action was solid. In the post-match, Matt Hardy and his clients attacked Allin leading to a brawl. Perhaps it\u2019s finally time for Allin to move on from Team Taz to something new.<\/p><div id=\"pwtor-568588726\" class=\"pwtor-content-1 pwtor-entity-placement\"><!-- Tag ID: pwtorchcom_test_300x600 -->\r\n<div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280 __300x600\" id=\"pwtorchcom_test_300x600\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x600\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x600\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>NOW CHECK OUT LAST WEEK&#8217;S DYNAMITE HITS &amp; MISSES:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/2021\/03\/20\/aew-dynamite-hits-misses-3-17-praise-on-historical-womens-main-event-the-pinnacle-hits-a-home-run-more\/\">AEW DYNAMITE HITS &amp; MISSES 3\/17: Praise on historical women\u2019s main event, The Pinnacle hits a home run, more<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"pwtor-end-article-groups pwtor-entity-placement\" id=\"pwtor-3284747055\"><div id=\"pwtor-3194983997\"><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>Kenny Omega vs. Matt Sydal &#8211; HIT Well done by two of the most athletically gifted performers in the promotion.
