Winners: MxM Collection

Rating: **3/4. A few awkward spots but AEW obviously sees something in MxM here, and the fans really enjoyed it. Solid main event.

Final Thoughts: Here’s the thing, and I don’t want this to come across as overtly negative, but… MxM Collection vs. Private Party is your main event tonight? The match was fine, but with a roster as deep as AEW’s, they need to do better if they want the “casual” fan, heck, the AEW fan, to tune in. MJF, Bryan Danielson, Blackpool Combat Club, Death Triangle, Bang Bang Gang, The Elite, The Conglomeration, Will Ospreay, Mercedes Mone, Britt Baker, Toni Storm, Mariah May, FTR, The Patriarchy, Hangman Page, The House of Black, Darby Allin, The Undisputed Kingdom, Don Callis Family, Deonna Purrazzo, Kris Statlander, Willow Nightingale, Saraya, Thunder Rosa…JUST TO NAME a few. The matches were all fair to midland as Taz would say, but they don’t mean much in the grand scheme of things. 5.5/10.
