AEW Revolution 2026: I don't have a subtitle

Needle spot might be the grossest yet. That one fan's repulsed reaction might be the best fan reaction shot since the Streak was broken.

This match might be the best AEW death match yet. Love all the callbacks

This is probably the best top to bottom show from AEW I've seen tbh. Nothing really bad and several MOTYC's. I think Hanger/MJF was *****+ and one of the best AEW matches along with Hangman/Mox Texas Death All In 2025, Omega/Danielson, Swerve/Hanger 1, Punk/MJF Dog Collar, Bryan/MJF Ironman, Ospreay/Danielson, Fletcher/Ospreay Cage, Toni/Mariah Hollywood Ending, and so much more.

My least favorite match was probably the Women's tag and that was more of an angle and an effective one to get Kross and Bayne over. The third fall of Stat/Thekla was wonky, but it was still a solid match.
 
Amazing card. Was a bit surprised that the Dogs didn't go over, but I expect they're murdering someone Wednesday night.
 
I wasn't able to watch the ppv live last night but from all I've read, and clips seen, looks like a great one. It'd be neat if Rousey, Edge, etc get added to the St Paul Dynamite next week. Of course, it'll also be neat if I can make it there and we don't have another nazi invasion, historic blizzard, multi car and semi pileup, etc.
 
Had to continue this today. Mox/Takeshita was balls to the wall. I thought Takeshita would win but the Ospreay return explains Mox winning and Takeshita losing furthers the Okada storyline too. Ospreay's goofy DBZ recovery video was so him. He looks yoked.

Swerve/Brody was solid stuff. Kross/Bayne went over strong which they needed. I'm glad Statlander lost. Starting the trios now.
 
Mistico being signed is great news for AEW as that's going to help even more to sell shows out in border towns. Also good news for CMLL since it eliminates any chance there might have been of WWE trying to lure him away again with big money offers.

Love Andrade attacking Bandido when his pants got stuck and not just standing there like a goof. His gimmick is really getting over to match his inring
 
Not sure why The Dogs lost that one, I know Tony loves OC but unless The Dogs are going to get a big moment on Dynamite (maybe linked to the tweet Jay White made?) it just seems like a momentum killer.

The MJF entrance/video was fantastic. Main went a bit long but was still fantastic. The blood smear on the camera was fucking iconic

Yeah, The Dogs losing was the one bad booking decision. I think Finlay made a mistake not going to NXT or staying in NJPW. He works more as a big fish in a small pond, and I think he will be lost in the shuffle on the roster. I actually think Clark Connors is better and has more potential down the line.

I was totally into the main for the entirety of the 46 minutes, but I get that complaint. I think watching all those long NJPW dome main events right before have gotten me into longer matches more than I used to be. But, it felt in a way like a coda to all of Hangman and MJF's extreme matches over the years. I loved MJF screaming "NOT AGAIN" realizing he had the dog collar on and was reliving the Punk match. Same with the callbacks to Hangman's Texas Death matches with Mox, Archer, and Swerve.

I'm really excited to see where Hangman goes from here. I think he's gonna take a bit of a break to sell the brutality and stakes of the stip though.
