AEW Dynamite Review 20.2.2025.

MJF And Hangman Adam Page Segment.

I'm once again skipping the intro, because what we started off with here was perfect. I loved this. From both men stairing each other down, from their respective corners, to the delivery, and its execution, and the draping of Lts, that was laced through this segment. Both men bounced off each other like a rubber ball verbally. This. Was. A 19 minute promo tour de force. This hole segment was delivered with, fire, and grace. Max fake walked away, and spat in Hangmans face, this caused a brawl, that was seperated by security. Christopher Daniels came out and reasoned with Hangman as this segment came to an end. I loved this. I could sit here and go through this segment piece by piece, but it wouldn't do it any justice, because this was great. Tony Khan then announced the Match for Revolution. MJF vs Hangman Adam Page. This is going to be great I can feel it.

The Opps vs The Patriarchy.

I didn't like this. The Match felt stagnant from the start and it never recoverd. The Opps, beat. The Patriarchy, when Hook choked out Nick Wayne. This. Was. A letdown.

Big Bill vs Powerhouse Hobbs Street Fight.

I had a great time watching this, unlike the Chris Jericho segment that came beforehand. From Hobbs getting smacked in the face with a sound mixer. Him getting busted open, when he was chucked into the steel steps. Bill beforehand was battered by Hobbs, with a steel chair, these moments elevated the violence. Bryan Keith got launched through a table, and Big Bill was made to eat wood, when Hobbs pushed him through a table to get the win.

The Murder Machines Segment.

The Murder Machines want The Hurt Syndicate. This sounds interesting, and a decent direction heading into Revolution.

Double Or Nothing Announcement.

Justin Roberts announced that AEW is coming back to Arizona, and they're bringing Double Or Nothing with them over the May Bank Holiday. I think this is a great idea taking the PPV outside of it's comfort zone of Las Vegas. It's no secret that AEW have hit a curd when it comes to ticket sales, so this is a good way to drive up revenue.

Timeless Toni Storm Segment.

I liked this. From calling herself insults, plugging her new movie Queen Of The Ring, to basking in her own glory, and if anyone wants to face her, then she's easy to find, because she's timeless. Never change Toni.

Gabe Kidd Is Coming To AEW.

Gabe Kidd is coming to AEW this Saturday on Collision. I'm just going to call it Gabe Kidd vs Kenny Omega at Forbidden Door. Please come to Wembley Arena Tony, and not The o2.

Willow Nightingale And Marina Shafir Fiiiiiiggggghhhhht.

Willow Nightingale, had her TV interview with Renee Paquette interrupted, by Marina Shafir, and the pair had a fight. Jon Moxley then got a cameraman to walk his crew to the ring, he cut a promo threatening to finish the job that he started on Adam Copeland, in the aftermath of what happened in Brisbane. Jay White came out, and he was instantly sandwiched between The Deathriders, and. Pac, this brought out Adam Copeland, to make the save, after a predictable brawl took place, The Deathriders ran away like cowards. Adam Copeland then cut a promo on Moxley, threatening Murder on live TV. I hated this. This segment made The Deathriders look weak, again, and it failed to deliver an equal playing field. 

Mercedes Mone Segment.

Mercedes Mone vs Komo Watanabe at Revolution, well, yes please AEW, that sounds delightful.

Kris Statlander vs Megan Bayne.

Megan Bayne, beat. Kris Statlander, in a decent TV Match, thanks to Penelope Ford, and. Thunder Rosa also wanted a piece, of Batmans favourite heel.

Max Castor Segment.

Who's facing Max Castor this Saturday on Collision. If i'm honest. I don't care.

Ricochet Segment.

This. Was great. What do you get, when you put Wrestlings answer to Jeffrey Dalmer, a robe, and Prince Nana, in a segment together, well that's easy, a passionate segment, that was awesome. Ricochet is just a big bully isn't he.

Orange Cassidy vs Roderick Strong International Championship Tournament.

I loved this. From the fast paced opening. The Undisputed Kingdom, acting like they've watched to many episodes of Saved By The Bell, because they're best friends forever, this Match was a clinic, that turned out to have great physicality. Cassidy got the win, and was greated by The Don Callis Family. Don cut a promo on him, After Tony Schiavone tried to get a word with him. Don called him a punk hippie, he was beaten down, leaving Kenny Omega to make the save. Orange Cassidy vs Kenny Omega, at a later date, sounds good.

Overview Of AEW Dynamite.

This. Was. AEW getting back to basics, and it was a blast. The in-ring work went from good to great, and the promos followed the same pattern.

This weeks AEW Dynamite is a solid 8/10.
