Welcome to the busted open podcast.

This is Dave Lebracker.

On today's episode, myself and Tommy Dreamer look back at AEW Dynamo, the good, the bad, and the ugly right now on the busted open

hard.

It's an interesting time for AEW right now, Tommy, but when you have a roster like AEW does and you could put together matches like they did last night because of this tournament. I really do feel that this

tournament is it seems to be it's the tournament Tommy and then who's the devil?

Those are the two things that are are really the glue that's holding AEW together right now.

Yes, I had told, said it yesterday and I'll say it today,

if you are a fan of the tournament style like wrestling wise

there was nothing wrong with that show it was a really really good wrestle

centric show and though the wrestlers don't have feuds or a reason to fight their reason is

to continue to advance. I thought the announcers do an amazing job of putting over the importance of this continental

classic. And you know, if you're again a wrestling traditionalist, you like to see guys have a reason to fight yes the ultimate goal

is you know victory more money all that stuff I look at what the NBA had done this year with the mid-season tournament.

The tournament got over and you know they're all playing for money, they're playing for the prestige,

who's going to be the winner.

I personally would love to have this tournament continue.

Again, this is a fan of the All Japan Carnival tournaments or the New Japan

tournament style of booking with points and all that point system.
