The show opens with Cody in the ring, inside in an empty arena, discussing recent events. He calls out Matt Jackson and Hangman Page for allowing their anger towards each other to cloud their judgment when they should work together. He calls out Kenny Omega and challenges him to once again be the competitor he was in NJPW. Will Matt Hardy reveal himself as the Exalted One tonight on AEW Dynamite? This is AEW Dynamite Weekly for 3/18/20. https://twitter.com/CodyRhodes/status/1240441616491581443?s=20 Nick Jackson and Kenny Omega come out.

If you are breathing, you are probably aware that the wrestling world, as well as a majority of the world itself, has come to a standstill due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 virus, also known as the Coronavirus. Washington State Governor Jay Inslee has asked that public gatherings consist of less than 10 people, so it is impossible for restaurants to stay in operation, let alone a wrestling production that routinely draws a crowd of hundreds of loyal fans. DEFY happens to be one of these impacted brands that have also implemented a new platform. As one of the…
AEW Dynamite kicks off with a recap of last week’s episode featuring Moxley challenging the Inner Circle and their attack on him at the end of the night. Tony Schiavone asks Hangman Page who his mystery partner is going to be tonight in the main event. He’s joined by the Young Bucks but basically tells them they aren’t good enough, and his partner will remain a mystery. Could a Rhodes family member team with Page against Guevara and Jericho? Cody w/Brandi Rhodes and Arn Anderson vs Ortiz w/Santana Our opening match starts with Cody and Ortiz running the ropes. Cody…
The Young Bucks are undoubtedly one of the most talented tag teams on the planet today. These real-life brothers have graced the ring at promotions such as NJPW, Ring of Honor, AAA, and currently, AEW. Trained by Ron Rivera, Rudos Dojo and Marty Jannetty they are extremely busy and in high demand. It is clear that ALL EYES are on The Young Bucks. Among the many eyes on The Bucks is the UNKILLABLE Matt Hardy, whose contract with WWE recently expired, and, at the time of my writing, is a free agent. Free-agent or not, Matt Hardy is half of…
We are utterly ecstatic to announce that DEFY has a new champion at Kings of Crash. I would like to congratulate Randy Myers on his win over Schaff at DEFY’s Clash of Kings. The first face we saw at DEFY in 2020 was Mr. Myers. He came out to wish us a Happy New Year, and he had said he had forgotten to ask Santa for a few things. Things like a new hat, some new shoes, and of course…a BELT. When he made that announcement you could feel the buzz in the crowd. It was actually really cool. He…
NXT TakeOver came to Portland, so your favorite PandaGirl packed up some pals and hit the road! The main reason for my wanting to be there in person? Getting to see BROserweights vs Undisputed Era. Little did I know that this match would end up being heavily favored for Fight of the Night. It was a night that saw the crowning of new WWE NXT Tag Team Champions. Matt Riddle and Pete Dunne (BROserweights) faced off versus Bobby Fish and Kyle O’Reilly (Undisputed Era). BROserweights are a fairly new team, still celebrating from their recent win at the Dusty Rhodes…
Our newest writing talent, Steve Sezso, tells you who he is, where he’s from, and why he’s the world’s strongest referee… “And his opponent, weighing in at 245lbs, from San Antonio California. The Bounty Hunter!”. Around 25 minutes after this announcement, I would finally win the WWF Heavyweight title from the then-undefeated, Hulk Hogan. A feat made even more incredible because not only was I nine years old but at around 95lbs, I may have been somewhat short of my billed weight. The imaginary thousands in attendance never knew the difference, and they loved my character – ‘the Bounty Hunter’…

ECCW’s Championship belt had quite the weekend! It was defended twice in the 2-night event in Vancouver BC at ECCW Ballroom Brawl 13. Firstly, defended by Artemis Spencer vs Bandido, and then defended again in what turned out to be a 4-way match for the title. Artemis won the title on January 11th, 2019. Spencer and Bandido had a great match, however, Bandido emerged victorious ending Arty’s reign at just over 1 year and 1 week. We also saw Beef Boy (W) Vs Judas Icarus which ended when Eli Surge threw in the towel on behalf of Icarus who didn’t…
