4/10 (A Bret Hart, if you will) simply because of how the show ended. Closing your final show of the year with the more universally panned act of the company is a hell of a bold move. If you just look at the optics of the closing shot of NXT compared to AEW, it's a rough look for AEW. I won't be shocked at all if NXT finally gets a win this week.

I figure NXT's winning this week anyway - though really both shows are probably going to plummet due to other, more important things going on - just due to having the more stacked show on paper, but I'd argue at this point the Dark Order really isn't all that panned. Their last couple matches got a lot of praise and people've been loving the vignettes. I'd say the most hated thing in the company's probably the Nightmare Collective. They've just got nothing.

The Dark Order has done a 180.They are one of the most praised acts currently. The most paned would be Britt.

7. It was all good until that nightmare collective shite again and then you had the crowd disappointed by the SCU win to top it all off. Otherwise I'd gone with an 8.

6. I liked some stuff, but the show honestly didn't keep my attention.

7/10. Dark Order feuding with the big names of AEW has my interest, and Jericho's tantrum after he couldn't defeat Jungle Boy was gold.
SCU's Tag title reign needs to end, though. Still wish PnP would have had the title shot instead of the Bucks, and won against SCU.

Strong 7.
Some good action, forward momentum maintained by and large, but a few botches and pacing issues that kept it from clicking like it usually does for me.
Still totally on board the Statlander hype train, glad Dark Order is taking shape, and the opening tag match had a few legit “holy shit” spots, so I’m not complaining, just not my favorite thus far.
