Luther speaks to AEW.

“Moon. Sun. I am the mutant sent to destroy the world!” Luther is the original Death Dealer. So “Mr. James Havoc,” strutting around with your barbed wire bats and such, that’s fine! Luther loves baseball and barbed wire. London Bridge is falling down, and “J to the Immy,” be ready to fall with it. It will soon be time to play ball.

Does Jurassic Express have allies in SoCal Uncensored? Or will everyone the Exalted One has his eyes on #JoinDarkOrder?


My Thoughts:

A really good AEW Dark episode this week, especially from the Women’s Division. The two newest signings had great showings, and I forgot Shoko pinned Riho at Fight for the Fallen last year. Riho wins to stay strong as she heads for her AEW Women’s World Championship defense for Dynamite, but I wonder if one more go with Nyla Rose ends her great run. Nyla could win tomorrow night and have a new contender step up for Revolution, quickly establishing a strong reign as only the second women’s champion ever. Shida VS Golden was also a really good match, and Shida really should be that next contender in such a case.

With the Nightmare Collective suddenly dead, it is a smart move to get Luther on a story. Luther VS Havoc should be a good feud, especially if it goes hardcore, as it should. And Jurassic Express VS The Dark Order was a really good main event. The Dark Order was definitely the team needing the win for their feud with SCU and other targets. SCU has an AEW World Tag title rematch with Hangman and Omega for tomorrow’s Dynamite, but I don’t think they win it. That’s fine, given the story with The Dark Order. I could also see things becoming an 8 or even 10 man tag if you throw Jurassic Express and the Beaver Boys into things.

My Score: 8.6/10
