The 5,500 seat arena hosted AEW\u2019s Fight for the Fallen in July 2019, and will likely be home to Dynamite tapings for the duration of the global Covid-19 outbreak.<\/p>\n<h3>Road to Dynamite<\/h3>\n<p>This week\u2019s episode featured a package hyping Blood &amp; Guts, an update on the ongoing feud between Dr. Britt Baker and Big Swole, and a new edition of The Librarians.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Road To AEW Dynamite, Jacksonville, Florida | 3\/18\/20\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ZZ_zY482KQ8?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 Recap<\/h3>\n<p>Colt Cabana defeated Peter Avalon<br \/>\nThe Hybrid 2 defeated Brandon Cutler &amp; Michael Nakazawa<br \/>\nPenelope Ford defeated Riho<br \/>\nChristopher Daniels defeated Stu Grayson<\/p>\n<h3>AEW Dynamite Matches and Segments<\/h3>\n<p>The Exalted One Revealed<br \/>\nThe Best Friends vs. The Lucha Bros.<br \/>\nJurassic Express vs. The Butcher &amp; The Blade<br \/>\nThe Elite vs. The Inner Circle &#8211; Winner receives an advantage in Blood &amp; Guts<\/p>\n<h3>Final Thoughts<\/h3>\n<p>This episode was originally scheduled to air from Rochester, NY but was moved to Jacksonville amid Corona virus concerns. It will take place without fans in the stands, and with only essential personnel in the building. RAW and Smackdown both performed under similar conditions this week and were strangely compelling (if not a little bit eerie)! My hopes are high, and I\u2019m confident that the AEW crew will be innovative and entertaining despite the circumstances.<\/p>\n<p>The revelation of the Exalted One\u2019s true identity is the segment I\u2019m most excited for this week. They have done an excellent job of taking the Dark Order, a team that made me sigh and roll my eyes, and building them into a solid mid-card act with a mystery that has been fun to follow and discuss online. The only downside is there won\u2019t be a crowd present to pop for whoever is finally debuting.<\/p>\n<p>As for the rest of the card, I don\u2019t expect anything too surprising. The really interesting thing will be watching these performers adapt to the unusual environment. You\u2019ve got to think that this is one area where the (boring and wrongheaded) insult about spending years \u201cwrestling in front of 20 people in an armory\u201d will be a real advantage for these guys.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>RECOMMENDED:<\/strong>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/2020\/03\/17\/3-17-aew-dark-tv-report-stu-grayson-vs-christopher-daniels-colt-cabana-vs-peter-avalon-th2-vs-cutler-nakazawa\/\">3\/17 AEW DARK TV REPORT: Stu Grayson vs. Christopher Daniels, Colt Cabana vs. Peter Avalon, TH2 vs. Cutler &amp; Nakazawa<\/a><\/p><div id=\"pwtor-3087650208\" 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<div class=\"pwtor-end-article-groups pwtor-entity-placement\" id=\"pwtor-1291780196\"><div id=\"pwtor-1434855882\"><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 MARCH 18, 2020 JACKSONVILLE, FLORIDA AT DAILY\u2019S PLACE AIRS ON TNT, 8:00 PM EST BY JOSHUA CHAMBERS (@josh_chambers), PWTORCH CONTRIBUTOR Arena This week\u2019s Dynamite will emanate from Daily\u2019s Place in Jacksonville, Florida. <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/2020\/03\/18\/aew-dynamite-tv-primer-3-18-best-friends-vs-lucha-bros-exalted-one-scheduled-to-be-revealed-by-dark-order-jurassic-park-vs-the-butcher-the-blade-advantage-at-blood-guts-at-stake\/\" title=\"AEW DYNAMITE TV PRIMER 3\/18: Best Friends vs. Lucha Bros., Exalted One scheduled to be revealed by Dark Order, Jurassic Express vs. The Butcher &#038; The Blade, Advantage at Blood &#038; Guts at stake\">[&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":94822,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"episode_type":"","audio_file":"","podmotor_file_id":"","podmotor_episode_id":"","cover_image":"","cover_image_id":"","duration":"","filesize":"","filesize_raw":"","date_recorded":"","explicit":"","block":"","itunes_episode_number":"","itunes_title":"","itunes_season_number":"","itunes_episode_type":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[6431,6163,2,52,27,5893],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-94820","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-aew-dynamite-primer","category-aew-news","category-prowrestlingnews","category-opnionandanalysis","category-specialists","category-tvprimers"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/post\/2020\/03\/Screen-Shot-2020-03-18-at-1.10.05-PM.png","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/94820","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=94820"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/94820\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":94836,"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/94820\/revisions\/94836"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/94822"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=94820"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=94820"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=94820"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
