My favorite wrestling match I\u2019ve ever seen in person was The Rock vs. Mankind for the WWF Championship at a house show when I was 10 years old. But my SECOND favorite is a 2016 match between The Revival and American Alpha at an NXT show in Seattle. I could\u2019ve watched those four wrestle forever! Never before had I been so sucked into the story and psychology of a tag-team match&#8211;it was a masterpiece. FTR never reached their full potential with WWE and I am excited to see what heights they can reach in a place like AEW.<\/p>\n<p>I am curious to see if and how AEW addresses the ongoing civil unrest following the murder of George Floyd at the hands of the Minneapolis Police. AEW has always positioned itself as a progressive, socially conscious company and I hope that they take this opportunity to reiterate to their fans that Black Lives Matter. Several members of their roster and management have publicly supported the movement, but it would be nice to see the company do something definitive with the TV product. Perhaps this is a good time to address the lack of Black talent in their Men\u2019s division?<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>CATCH UP&#8230; <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/2020\/05\/27\/5-27-aew-dynamite-tv-report-kellers-report-on-mike-tyson-live-britt-baker-addresses-her-knee-injury-inner-circle-pep-rally-young-bucks-matt-hardy-team-together-in-match-shida-in-action\/\">5\/27 AEW DYNAMITE TV REPORT: Keller\u2019s report on Mike Tyson live, Britt Baker addresses her knee injury, Inner Circle Pep Rally, Young Bucks &amp; Matt Hardy team together in match, Shida in action<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"pwtor-end-article-groups pwtor-entity-placement\" id=\"pwtor-3970770456\"><div id=\"pwtor-1443941015\"><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 JUNE 3, 2020 AIRS ON TNT, 8:00 PM EST BY JOSHUA CHAMBERS (@Josh_Chambers), PWTORCH CONTRIBUTOR Arena This week\u2019s episode will broadcast live from Daily\u2019s Place in Jacksonville, Florida.
