Match of the Night: AEW All Out 2021

[Abdullah]

For me, it’s the cage match by a fairly large match. Brutal, ugly stuff.

Then maybe MJF vs Jericho or Punk vs Darby.

[CeilingFan]

The Bucks-Lucha Brothers match is definitely a candidate for MOTY.

[Viking Hall]

The Tag match might be in a discussion for best Cage Match ever tbh. I know the Bucks can be polarising, but there's not many who could deny that they bring it on the big stages.

[asuka007]

Cage Match. That might have been the greatest Cage match that I’ve ever seen. Certainly one of them.

[corndog]

The tag match by a large margin, absolutely insane stuff and good psychology as well. That was probably one of, if not the best tag match and cage match I have ever seen.

Bucks v Lucha followed by DMD v Statlander for me

[eJm]

There were a lot of good to very good matches on the show.

The tag title match was the only “pretty f***ing great” one.

[King (Super) Dragunov]

The Cage Match.

[Raskovnik]

Kenny vs Christian for me. Sick ass match.

[CeilingFan]

It's good to see that the Wight-Marshall epic got a vote

There really were no mindblowingly incredible matches other then the cage match, but goddamn if that wasn't one of the most satisfying top to bottom PPV's I've ever seen.

For me the women’s championship. Great sorry telling. Good selling. Everything was done for a reason.

[simplydurhamcalling]

Christian vs Kenny to me was technically the best match, just really impressive work from both men. Bucks Vs Lucha Bros had more heat but just one too many moments that took me out of the moment so I'd put Darby/Punk ahead of that too.

[thehottag]

I swear you could not pay the Young Bucks to have a bad match on PPV. Just astonishing, every single time.

[4real]

While I have some criticisms of the cage match it was still far and away better than anything else on the show. The crowd response alone made this match and all 4 guys gave an incredible performance.

[clifford]

Cage match is a definite MOTY contender for myself, and the match with the most emotion for sure so far this year. I thought it was incredible.

[simplydurhamcalling]

From seeing the results of the poll I think I need to re-watch the cage match and see if I'm being overly critical.

Like, it’s a match where if you took it off the card, stuff gets harder to choose from which is a great thing because it’d be fun to debate between Baker/Statlander, Cage/Omega and Kingston/Miro (a match I actually missed because of connection problems and still need to see) but with it? Choice is way too easy.

Something NXT and AEW sometimes struggle with is every match being an epic marathon and it can make it a bit exhausting.

This show was more in the Mania X7 mold - not many of these are matches that you would watch a lot in isolation, but the whole is much greater than the sum of the parts.

[Session Moth is over]

After the PPV I said Omega vs Christian or Statlander vs Baker was my match of the night. But I rewatched the cage match and that was amazing so probably that just about.
