A few matches confirmed for Elevation this week as AEW heavily advertised it on the show!
- Chuck Taylor and Orange Cassidy vs JD Drake/Ryan Nemeth. Orange Cassidy will debut his new theme here!
- Jon Moxley is in action vs the debuting Bill Collier
- Frankie Kazarian will be Christian's first AEW opponent, but hopes Christian is watching Monday, as he is IN ACTION on Elevation this week.
- Scorpio Sky's dark side will be shown as he looks to show why he became the face of DARK and will become the face of Elevation all the same as he takes on Mike Sydal
All this and more, update the card as it goes as always!

Bill Collier from what I can gather is a BIG DUDE, appropriately his nickname is also BIG TIME, not sure how the match is gonna go but I assume he's gonna get some shit in Here's a match he had with Mike Bailey! Very Old School big man type with the physique to match and some athleticism too, finisher is "Sign, Sealed, Delivered" a Shining Punch to a Kneed Opponent.

Elevation is definitely becoming a more story heavy show than DARK, DARK's becoming more "The matches that happen plus real fun commentary" and that's completely fine because it works, but given all the shoutouts and advertisement Elevation got this week, promos literally being used to set up multiple matches on the show, it's safe to say Elevation's being used to possibly test things out for that third hour of wrestling that's eventually coming, and can eventually become like the little C-Show/Velocity while DARK is like Sunday Night Heat.

Yeah, Elevation is definitely the solid B show right now. They even advertised regular DARK as the Taz and Excalibur show which to be fair, is a pretty good way to sell it.

Elevation’s probably AEW’s version of WCW Saturday Night at this point.

Elevation’s probably AEW’s version of WCW Saturday Night at this point. It's probably gonna have to be when DARK goes back to what it used to be when Touring starts again I predicted Elevation might even stay at Daily's as a home base but with full crowds or more floor seating and such. Give it that MOTHASHIP feel and when it comes to a lot of these talents give them a bit of a home base crowd to work off of and develop like how NXT has Full Sail. If not Daily's I see a venue like that in their future, but I dont see how Daily's would be an issue at this point running there over a year without problems as they have unless they want indoors for humid/coldest months.

Dynamite - Nitro 2nd Turner Show - Thunder (but hopefully like, good) Elevation - Saturday Night DARK - Pro/Worldwide

Bill Collier looks like Big Cass from Wish I got a Cass vibe from him too, watching him wrestle though? He's a better overall worker and more agile than Cass has shown. He's also 6'5 and not the unteachable 7 feet tall, so maybe that helps his maneauverability.

Bill Collier has a Big Cass/Mark Jindrak body, but his face looks like comic book shop owner. I think he's friends with Butcher and the Blade.

King/Mizunami! This was one of the Mizunami matches that I most wanted to see.

4 women's matches were just announced Thunder Rosa vs Alex Garcia Penelope Ford vs Leila Grey Leyla Hirsch vs Vipress KiLynn King vs Ryo Mizunami People were all like "Thunder is off to NWA, she shouldn't have gone over Britt Baker!" And here she is, two weeks later in AEW working with her student. King/Mizunami should be a banger.

And here she is, two weeks later in AEW working with her student. King/Mizunami should be a banger. I'm more surprised by Gracia than Rosa, just because the other Mission Pro workers showing up at the NWA are Jenna (who hasn't been back to AEW in long enough that I would be surprised to see her again) and Skye Blue (who hasn't yet shown up on Dark), so I was wondering if that travel group was splitting up between the two promotions. I guess that's just another case of Gracia taking All Of The Bookings, which is something I low key admire about her. Gracia/Rosa was fine last time I saw it - conspicuously edited, but fine. Likely, they have a tighter match this go around, but Rosa gives Gracia enough to make it pretty good.
