That’s right, Shanna is back after months away because of the pandemic on a card filled with Dark regulars and AEW faves alike, many looking to win the Diamond Ring Battle Royale this week on Dynamite.
EDIT: I pretty much posted this after reading about the Twitter stuff so...Erm...my bad. 😖

Hopefully she can be quiet about politics on twitter.
We know Shanna is really talented in the ring

17 matches again. I like Dark but they should consider splitting it into two parts for Tuesday and Friday

Lady Frost vs Red Velvet is a interesting matchup. Both young and with potential

Pillman may not be signed yet due to his MLW commitments, but it looks like Garrison is.

You kind of have to wonder what goes through wrestler's minds when they say that sort of thing on social media, do they expect nobody will notice? Social media is an invaluable part of an indie wrestler building a brand and a following, all your good will will evaporate fast if you use it to vomit toxic 'hot takes' and it takes being a hell of a talent for people to look past that, and let's be honest, Chris Jericho she aint.

Well let's go through the card shall we? The lack of Waiting Room this week is sad but you also dont wanna overdo it out the gate.
Tesha Price vs Shanna: Shanna's return, and I hope she's learned a valuable lesson after all the shit that happened. She's a workhorse for this division and they need her. I'm excited to see what she can bring out of Tesha.
Maluta and Priest vs Best Friends: Should be another tune up match before Dynamite for Best Friends. Cool to see Maluta again though. Miro and Kip loom in the distance for Trent and Chucky.
Griff Garrison and Brian Pillman Jr. vs Cezar Bononi and Ryzin: Another win for the New Hollywood Blondes is comforting after their loss to Hybrid 2. Idk if Pillman Jr's signedyet but this seems to be an indication he will be sooner than later. Also RYZIN SHOULD JOIN CHAOS PROJECT, just throwing that out there...
Danny Limelight vs Brandon Cutler: Love seeing Limelight back, he's looked great in every match he's been in, and I expect the same here. Cutler looks to keep the winning streak going here.
Uno and Grayson vs Braon Black and Fuego Del Sol: CAN FUEGO HIT THE TORNADO DDT?? Can Baron Black finally find a partner that works? Probably not, but with Uno and Grayson it should be fun regardless.
Leva Bates vs Alex Gracia: This should be interesting. Leva and Gracia can be a little sloppy in ring, but I'm hoping for a good match here. Might be another big win for Leva
Matt Sydal vs Aaron Solow: This should be a fun little match here, Solow's got talent, and Sydal works with everyone. Sydal probably wins but this could be a sleeper.
KTB vs Shawn Spears: I really like KTB, but I assume Spears wins yet again. I'm really curious what they're doing with Spears at this point since he's on a big win streak but his direction seems lacking with the whole glove storyline. I guess we'll see if this leads to anything more.
Angel Fashion/VSK/Shawn Donovan vs GunN Club: Another Trios match and presumably another Trios win for Gunn Club. Fashion and VSK are good, first time seeing Donovan, let's see how Dad and Sons continue to gel.
George South Jr. and Bobby Wayward vs The Acclaimed: Two more guys I've never seen making their AEW debuts. Let's see how long they survive not only the Acclaimed's moves but Caster's diss tracks.
5 and 10 vs Jurassic Express vs Sonny Kiss/Joey Janela: AEW has a thing for Trios Tag Matches lately, and this is a good one as well. I expect Express to win, but I also expect this to be a fun match
Jon Cruz vs Peter Avalon: Cruz makes his "return" for the first time in awhile and it will seemingly be at the expense of Pretty Peter. It looks like the former Initiative Trio all have a chance at continuing their winning ways.
KiLynn King vs Katalina Perez: Our second look at Perez, curious if it looks better than her match with Ford. King's finally starting to get some momentum, this could be win number three for her.
Lindsay Snow vs Ivelisse: This could be an awesome match here. Depending on how much they give Snow. Snow's now been given Rosa and Ivelisse as opponents so I'm hoping they're thinking about signing her, she's incredibly unique.
Lady Frost vs Red Velvet: Speaking of Snowy related names, Lady Frost also gets another match, and I'm very excited about it. Her and Velvet are both crazy athletic, so this should be a great one, I presume Velvet wins but still should be good, I like seeing her get another look
Chaos Project vs Alex Chamberlain and Seth Gargis: This should be a win for Chaos Project but I'm curious if they continue the story from last week where Chamberlain abandoned his partner, could be a fun little storyline if they have a plan for the guy.
Ricky Starks vs Damian Fenrir: The aformentioned partner Chamberlain abandoned last week. We'll see what he has as a singles star, but i's probably not much given he has to run into AEW STARKS.
This should be a fun night, some fun matches on the card, I'm curious if they'll annoynce any further contests like last week after the initial card, that'd be fun. As it stands, another fun week of matches, I look forward to it!

Sydal vs. Solow has the potential to be a show stealer. Also curious to see how George South's kid is.

The idea of Bright Blue Hair vs. Bright Pink Hair is more enjoyable than it should be for me.

King vs. Perez: King seems much better at carrying a match than Anna Jay is, so this will likely be better than Perez's previous outing. Or, King actually gets to go full powerhouse and annihilate Perez. Either seems likely.
Frost vs. Velvet: Innnnnteresting one. Velvet's getting her wins padded against jobbers, but generally the jobbers who are actually impressive or worth a look. Lady Frost is a tier below the Leyla Hirsches and Lindsay Snows, but she's someone that I hope sticks around, so I hope this ends up good. Velvet has been generally impressive, but I keep feeling like she is missing an element or two - maybe just that her nearfalls and finisher are a bit underwhelming, but that is the sort of thing that AEW is letting workers evolve with time.
Shanna vs. Price: I feel good about calling that Price is the new jobbing-est jobber. She's explosive and athletically impressive in a way many of her peers are not, but she also has exactly zero hook or selling point - exactly the kind of person who should be jobbing for a while until she's done getting workshopped.
Leva vs. Gracia: I have no idea what this match is going to look like. Both of them can be slow and sloppy, and I don't know that Gracia is going to give Leva any kind of story to work with the way Dani Jordyn did. Gracia seems to be liked by promoters, though, so I keep being open to the possibility that she's got something that I've not seen yet.
Snow vs. Ivelisse: Now this should be good. Ivelisse bringing structure while Snow brings her technical skill should make for a legit good match. Snow is still toward the top of the women I'd like to see with an All Elite graphic, and she's getting a similar treatment to Leyla Hirsch this year and Big Swole last year (jobbing, but only to people that nobody should be ashamed to lose to), so hopefully that is indeed in her future. Would love to see Snow in either the Kingston Family or Team Taz, in particular.
5 & 10 vs. Jurassic Express vs. Janela & Kiss: This seems like an easy win for Jurassic Express, which makes me more interested to see who gets pinned between Janela and 5 (or Kiss, but Janela takes falls more than Kiss in their tags in my perception).
Avalon vs. Cruz: I'm just amused that they keep pulling the secret identity thing with Cruz to add a talented jobber who needs zero protection.
Spears vs. KTB: Siiiigh. Spears. I continue to be disappointed that I went from feeling like the only person who liked Spears to agreeing with everyone that he's a continuing misfire thanks to the glove gimmick.

Hopefully she can be quiet about politics on twitter. We know Shanna is really talented in the ring I'm almost afraid to ask, what did she say? I guess without getting too much into detail about it (since obvious board rules).

Also, while I'm happy Lady Frost is getting looked at, I hope they give her husband, "The Savage Gentleman" Victor Benjamin, a shot as well.

Like, I don't have a good sense of just how good he is in the ring overall, but a guy that size who can bump like that has to get a look eventually. I kind of wonder if he and Frost have gotten fewer looks because they seem to have done so much as a package deal. Frost seems insanely good for her experience level, and Benjamin is a promoter's dream of a big man.
