EDDIE KINGSTON QUITS AEW

Sorry I have posted in a long time team, work is super busy and I don't have the bandwidth to do it all. But I just had to post about the Mad King quiting AEW.

Obviously this is a work and Eddie will now be on Ring Of Honour but I'm still bummed by this. Eddie is by far one of the best things in AEW.

It's a pretty bold strategy but it's the first time I have actually had to really consider subscribing to Honour Club.

What's your thoughts?

IS SARAYA CLEARED TO WRESTLE?

Dave Melter reported that Saraya was not medically cleared to wrestle. Saraya tweeted a response stating 'ignore the dirt sheet clickbait. See ya Wednesday.'

Well, Wednesday came and we still don't have a genuine answer to if Saraya is cleared to wrestle.

She came to the ring and cut a decent promo bout how she is the revolution in the AEW women's locker room. She then brought Toni Storm and the baby faces out to give give them their flowers.

Of course Brit Baker took exception to someone else elevating themselves as the leader of the women's locker room. They had a heated exchange prior to Serena Deeb v Toni Storm match. Saraya told Brit that due to the interference, she convinced Tony Khan to match it a Lumber Jack match. Interestingly, Saraya, wasn't a lumber jack but was on commentary instead.

I sincerely hope Saraya is medically cleared, even though I wasn't watching WWE when she was performing. The pop she gets tells me people are excited to see her.

THE ACCLAIMED HAVE ARRIVED

At AEW Dynamite Grand Slam The Acclaimed, Max Caster and Anthony Bowens, took on Swerve in Our Glory, Swerve Strickland and Keith Lee, for the Tag Team championship.

The Acclaimed is a great example of All Elite Wrestling building home grown stars. Both these young guys are from the indies and TK saw they would make a good tag team. They were given time to pay their dues, which they did, and now they are reaping the benefits.

Whilst it is unclear why The Acclaimed had a rematch for the tag titles after losing clean to Swerve and Lee at All Out, the crowd was 100% on Caster and Bowens side.

Swerve tried to take the low road by hitting Max with the boom box but missed and hit Keith Lee. This will likely be a plot point moving forward with an eventual feud between Swerve and Keith Lee.

The Acclaimed got the win after Billy Gunn hit the famassor on Swerve Strickland the outside and Anthony Bowens followed up with the Arrival.

The crowed became unglued ask put by Excalibur. I was pleased to see AEW home grown stars get the titles. This something I want to see more of moving forward.

WHAT A SPECTACLE OF A MATCH

The Elite vs United Empire was a chaotic mess in the best way possible. Bodies were going every where, compression shirts being ripped off, Will Osprey defining physics. This match was a gripping and had heart in your throat moments all over the place. Matt Jackson kicking out of what I'm calling a modified Indy Taker was a great spot. I had already had the finish of the match spoiled by facebook but I was still was on the edge of my seat

The story of this match was the ongoing feud between Kenny Omega and Will Osprey. The Young Bucks and Aussie Open were bit players in the overall story being told here. As Don Calais said, they are both generational talents. They are testing each other, pushing each to their limits.

I've said it before, Tony Khan needs to pay Will Osprey what ever he wants to sign he to AEW when his contract is up. Osprey is a extremely unique talent, there are not many people who can do what he does. The feud with Kenny is a draw and there are some many guys in AEW that Osprey would be able to have epic matches with.

There must have an an Aussie in the crowd because I heard someone start an Aussie Aussie Aussie Oi Oi Oi chant for Aussie Open.

The Elite got the win, which was to be expected, going on to the finals at All Out to face either The Best Friends or Dark Order and Hangman Adam Page.
