Welcome to the B open podcast. This is Dave Leggreck.

On today's episode, myself and Tommy Dreamer

get into AEW Dynamite from last night? And does AEW Dynamite have a healed baby-faced problem going into

2024? Also, we talked to Trick Williams just before his not one but two big matches at

Vengeance Day this Sunday. All that right now on the busted open podcast.

Talk about the ranking system in AEW. Are you buying in? Does it excites you? and are you going to get more into who the number one

contender is and how much do you think they're going to use the rankings and is ae w going to stick

with the rankings? I'm excited about it. I know Tommy's excited about it.

We'll go back out to the nation in just a second. But again, the follow up on Steve's

call before the break about the blurred lines in A. E. W. Another one for me is Swerve. I mean Tommy,

Swerve Strickland is without a doubt one of the most popular wrestlers in AEW yet he's a heel you have

swerve he's a heel he attacks hang man page hope invasion style for

crying out loud can't get more healish than that.

But yet when Swerve comes out, he's coming out with Prince Nana that's doing the most over-dancing

AEW that everybody's dancing to everybody wants the shirt

everybody's dancing in the crowd and then swerves like whose house swerves house

it's the most over chant in AEW. But yet he's a heel. So once again, am I supposed

to boo-swerve or cheer for Swerve? And if I'm supposed to boo swerve if I'm supposed to booam

then don't have them come out with nana and don't have whose house and have the crowd say Swerve's house because you're supposed to be booing up

The same could be said about Samoa Joe
