Not that these are bad, but this is a promotion built on fan service doing their first house show during wrestling's only mainstream cultural event. I should not be more excited about GCW Spring Break. Khan seems pretty self aware. Get after it, bruh. Yeah, to me, house shows were always great because the cards were like PPV cards with all the titles on the line and top feuds featured. Maybe that’s just being in the NY market that the cards were always stacked, but I assumed that’s how it was around the horn most of the time. It seems like they're doing more New Japan style "between the big show" cards for this with mainly multiman matches although Darby is defending his title so depending on who it's against, that could be a relatively big match.

Actually, I remember TK saying that when AEW has the rare house show, those would count towards the win-loss record.
I think he was preparing for the fact that he wasn't gonna have AEW go to England for just one episode of Dynamite in London (would've been last year's Fyter Fest) and was planning a few extra house shows in places like Manchester and Birmingham.

It'd be real interesting if these matches counted then because Cody's probably beating Page, though The Sydals potentially getting a win over Omega via pinning Nakazawa is very interesting since Omega's been having this mini-feud with them on the side. PAC being booked for this show is also a good sign he's cleared by next taping.

That was my point, Youtube isn't "televised", it's streaming. It could be like how they did the Women's Tourney matches on Bleacher Report or on Youtube and it could still be "untelevised" Just me thinking especially if the matches count towards records.

I think there's a happy medium between no house shows and a WWE-like schedule that wears down the bodies. AEW has a lot of talent that could benefit from extra matches to help their development along. Space the shows out and rotate the wrestlers, and house shows could be a huge benefit to AEW.

That's kinda the thing right? There is a happy medium you can find somewhere that isnt backbreaking like how WWE was doing House Shows before the pandemic (And they were beginning to ease back) and none at all This is why Elevation and DARK exist to keep the wrestlers reps, so I mean house shows seem like a possibility. I see Elevation sticking around as its own seperate entity either still in Daily's with a crowd like a home base or somewhere else for some of the roster to rotate in and out of like a WCW Saturday Night when the pandemic's more or less done with. I dont know if that's quite their plan but it seems so, DARK becomes the three-four matches during the shows again and Elevation becomes the enhancement/reps show, and then maybe you put some House Shows in the mix there. Time will tell.

Since that's the closest thing we have to precedent here, I would assume they don't unless something really crazy happens, like Darby dropping the TNT title.

If the market is there for house shows they’ll do them. It isn’t now for anyone and AEW was way too new to even think of that that in the six months they were in operation before the pandemic hit.

Cody will be taking on Aaron Solow in a Street Fight I guess if the records possibly count Cody vs Ethan Page didn't seem like the way to go
