Fun fact about Mike Sydal, saw him live at a CHIKARA event. watched him dislocate his shoulder blade in a spot during a match and he asked a kid to pop it back in
He's apparently double jointed and can do it at will, it was gnarly lol

Show still needs a proper outro, but that was a real good watch
A whole lot of development happened, wasn't just matches, which is what they said they wanted Elevation to do

Page could bring something out of Sky that he needs, a bit more swagger and crazyness.

Elevation feels more like Saturday Night whilst Dark feels like Worldwide or Pro.

Really liked the show tonight. Super easy watch with good wrestling and simple angles. Definitely agree, this has an early 90s WCW Saturday Night vibes.

Really good show.
Paul Wight has really improved in three weeks, and he just feels very natural now. As he gets to know people, he's beginning to feel like a smart uncle who wrestled back in the day watching the matches with you.
It felt like most of the matches were competitive, and every single match was part of a story.
Miro looking like a monster, OC being funny, JD Drake being put into a good position.
Jurassic Express and Bear Country developed.
QT and Lee Johnson further developed. QT and Ethan Page would make a funny Dad/Son tag team. They could face Griff Garrison and that guy on Sammy's vlog.
Ethan Page, Scorpio Sky and the Sydals developed. I think Ego Heathens is a good name for a Ethan and Sky tag team. I want Sky to angerly grab a Sydal next week and yell "DID YOU SEE THE NYC SUBWAY RAT MAN!?!?! DID YOU!!?!? DID YOU GET THE PS5??!?!??!?!?!"
Thunder Rosa and Diamante developed.
Shida and Conti starting their development. And Conti's kick to Allure looked amazing. Also, Tesha Price is my favorite "enhancement" wrestler today. I really want her to become a winning regular.
I thought Private Party looked really good. Matt Hardy has really been able to create a simple wrestling heel that helps so many others with their stories. I was loving Quen's new hair and his heeling in the ring.
I HATTTEDD Billy Gunn, but I'm going to be honest, Austin Gunn is really impressive. I know I don't care about them as a trio, but Austin as a plucky babyface with a ton of bro attitude can easily be a thing that works.
Chandler Hopkins looked great, really hope to see him again. Honestly, I could see him and JD Drake having an interesting Texas team that does a lot of Japanese type wrestling.
Leyla Hirsch had a good match, and her shoot wrestler stuff is something she can really lean into.
King and Ryo was a really good match, the kind I would see at an indie show and it would stay with me.
Enjoyed Penelope Ford getting a match again.
And finally, Kazarian doing the chicken wing was great. He really should do the grizzled veteran, and yell Do Ya during matches.
Great seeing Dasha and Marvez do interviews backstage. I need 3 interviews from each, every week. Get these promos out.
A really good show that maybe could have used 2 or 3 less matches, but was a ton of fun. I agree it's got that WCW Saturday Night feel, but I think this has more competitive matches. In fact, WCW Saturday Night was two hours.

Ditto on Paul Wight already improving. He had an extra energy tonight that brought him from someone saying smart things during the match to someone telling stories and getting you invested in the action.

So, with the likes of Ryzin and Fuego in the intro, can we assume that they're at least under some sort of deal, even if it's not the "You get an All Elite graphic" deal?

Although it would be a funny rib if Fuego was still show to show but they put him in the graphic. Honestly, if you watch Sammy's vlog, he's an AEW guy as much as anyone. Ryzin is now doing skits with Nyla and Vickie, so I imagine he might be. I feel like there are at least 20 people signed who don't have a graphic.

I'm trying to see what the tattoo on his side says, it looks like it says RANDY and I'm hoping he got a big tat in honor of Randall Orton "FAITH", it looks like.
