AEW can now be built around Swerve Strickland and Adam Page
While All Elite Wrestling does so many things well, it has its faults (nobody’s perfect). One of them has been an inability to center the roster around its younger talent, one the company can build a foundation off of for years to come. That shouldn’t be an issue after last night’s Full Gear PPV, an...

AEW <i>and </i>WWE fans were winners this time around
For all the noise about “WWE vs. AEW” and whatever that means to everybody, they don’t really go head to head on our screens very much. WWE pulled NXT off of Wednesdays when it mostly got its brains beaten in by the burgeoning AEW Dynamite. AEW has struggled on the Saturday nights that WWE runs a Pr...

Jerry Jones is the disappointing white moderate Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. wrote about
If Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was still alive there are two things we could be sure of — he wouldn’t be a Dallas Cowboys fan, and he wouldn’t like Jerry Jones....

Is The Rock vs. Roman Reigns worthy of a Wrestlemania main event with both guys part-time?
Outside of completely catering to society as a whole and pushing its current roster and storylines to the back burner, there isn’t a match the WWE can put on that would draw a bigger box office than The Rock returning to the ring for a first-time ever matchup with his cousin and current Undisputed W...

Stephen A. Smith defended Cowboys owner Jerry Jones’ racist past
Stephen A. Smith has two options. Stand by his man and deal with the consequences, or apologize and hold Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones accountable for past and present racist allegations that have become too big to ignore....

CM Punk and Tony Khan took a molehill and made it Three Mile Island
It’s hard to know which aspect of AEW firing CM Punk yesterday is more frustrating: How much both sides left on the table, or how easily it would have been for them to solve whatever the problems were so long ago. ...

CM Punk fired from AEW after altercation with Jack Perry
CM Punk has been fired by All Elite Wrestling. The 44-year-old wrestler allegedly got into a backstage altercation with Jack Perry before AEW’s All In pay-per-view in London on Sunday, and was subsequently suspended before his dismissal....

IDIOT OF THE MONTH: Luis Rubiales, John Angelos, and the elusive White Sox park shooter
Welcome once again to the latest edition of Deadspin’s IDIOT OF THE MONTH, where we rant insanely about people we don’t like! Up yours, woke moralists!...

On its biggest stage ever at Wembley, AEW was its AEW-est
AEW took its big shot Sunday, putting on their first-ever stadium show and their first show in the UK at Wembley Stadium. It’s impossible to define what success would be for the show, other than selling a ton of tickets, which they did. Overall, the show was great, while also being everything else A...

Predicting the AEW All In London card
All Elite Wrestling’s first show in the United Kingdom was supposed to be in July 2020. Due to obvious reasons, that didn’t happen. It took three years for AEW to finally run a show in England, but what a way for them to make a debut, with one of the largest crowds in professional wrestling history ...

The biggest show in wrestling history should be on free TV
Let’s be clear about what the main story is about AEW’s All In show at Wembley Stadium on Sunday, which has currently sold 80,000+ tickets and will be the highest-paid attendance for a wrestling show ever (despite whatever figures WWE makes up about past WrestleManias). The story isn’t whether or no...

Boy, noise sure does follow CM Punk
In a sense, CM Punk can’t help it. Given every twist and turn and crash and surge his career has had, eyes are going to be on him wherever he is, even when that’s off camera. And if you believe there are those who still have knives out for him within AEW, well it’s not much of a surprise he’s being ...
