| 0:00.0 | It's not an easy thing to do stepping into the shoes of Simon Miller. Admittedly, we may both be bald kings, but that man is one of one and there's very few people, myself included, who can do what he can do. It does help, however, when the episode of television that you're covering on the video is as tremendous as last night's A.A.W. Dynamite was. So get your biased comments out the way, get your |
| 0:21.0 | little payroll jives, all of that stuff. Throw them down in the comments immediately because |
| 0:24.9 | I'm telling you right now you're going to need them. I thought the show was absolutely tremendous. |
| 0:29.4 | I'm Andy H. Murray from What Culture the H stands for Harry and the Henderson's? And these |
| 0:34.9 | are the A.W. Dynamite ups and downs. First thing we're properly going to cover on this video is the collision recap that opened the show, namely going over the big show closing angle featuring FTR, the Young Box, the Young Box entire family, ricochet. |
| 0:50.3 | A good bit of business across the board. If you didn't see collision, and you know, it's not as high in audience as dynamite every week, so there's a good chance you didn't. They gave you a nice little recap of what was a very effective heat angle, where the Young Bucks mother got pie-faced, the brother Malachi got pile-driven. We have was interspersed with some nice little promo stuff here from the Young Bucks particular, and FTR as well, and it's all done, obviously, to add an extra layer of heat to their impending clash. The Young Bucks said that initially they just wanted to find out who the best tag team in AEW was, but now it's personal. So it's a really good and effective way to start the show, because like I said, if you've not seen collision, this told you everything you needed to know immediately. I'm not a believer that you need to |
| 1:30.8 | do 20 minutes of video packages every single week, right? I don't think you need to go over every |
| 1:37.5 | single detail and really hammer it into people's heads. But sometimes you can't assume that everyone |
| 1:43.5 | has seen everything. so you do stuff like |
| 1:46.6 | this. In my book, that makes this a very easy up to get this video going. |
| 1:52.6 | The first proper match on the show was John Moxley versus L. Clone, which will get into the |
| 1:57.5 | kind of meat and potatoes of it real soon, but I want to give half up, I don't know, something like that for Marina Sheffir's line delivery here. Now, keep in mind that she said this, and I have to read it off my computer, so I get it right. She said this to John Moxley's wife, Renee Paquette, as Renee's doing this breakdown of Moxley versus Clown as Moxley's making his entrance. |
| 2:18.9 | She asks Marina Sheffir as part of this, hey, what's with those pre-match slaps that you do to my |
| 2:24.4 | husband? Marina replied, there's no peace for great men and there's no pain in that slap. |
| 2:31.1 | Only joy. And she held her gaze for a solid five or so seconds before she left. |
| 2:35.9 | I remind you again that she said this to John Moxley's wife. Anyway, funny lines aside, I thought |
| 2:41.9 | this was a really effective television match in that it wasn't just like, I don't know, |
| 2:46.3 | like 15, 20 minutes of pure 50-50 and momentum swings all over the place. |
| 2:54.3 | I would say it was probably about 6040 in John Moxley's favour. |
| 2:59.1 | There was a sense of hierarchy to this match that you don't often see in such eliminators. |
| 3:03.6 | It wasn't like Clone got rolling just as often as Moxley did. |
| 3:07.8 | It felt like whenever Clone would get a bit of a break, he'd have a spell of offense. |
