It seems that every time I think “Wow Tony Khan can’t possibly shove any more in a two hour show,” he does. AEW Fyter Fest Night 2 is tomorrow night and it’s jam packed. JAMMMMMMM PACKED.
Okay okay in case you don’t know here’s the card:
Christian Cage and Luchasaurus vs The Varsity Blonds
Darby Allin vs Brody King
Dante Martin vs Lee Moriarty
Jon Moxley and Wheeler Yuta (BCC) vs Best Friends
Eddie Kingston vs Chris Jericho: Barbed Wire Everywhere match with JAS suspended in a shark cage (happy shark week!!)
Now do you see why I’m so excited?
Eddie Kingston’s been on a fucking warpath for months. Chasing relentlessly after Jericho, sending threats, attempting ARSON (and murder), and tomorrow night he finally gets Chris right where he needs him. With the Jericho Appreciation Society locked in a shark cage there’s nothing stopping him from going absolutely batshit crazy. And I’m here for it. Kingston has done an incredible job at making me believe is genuinely hates Chris Jericho. Don’t we all hate Jericho a little bit? There are so many possibilities for this match, and I already don’t want it to end.
And let’s talk about Wheeler Yuta, Jon Moxley, and the Best Friends for a second. I LIVE FOR THIS SHIT!!!!! Nothing, and I mean NOTHING, gets me in wrestling more than former teammates/friends battling it out. I love the drama, I love the angst. And the fact that Yuta is teaming with Moxley and they’re representing the Blackpool Combat Club (you know the group Yuta left the best friends for) is just so, so good, in my opinion. I think the match and the storytelling is enough, but if you need further convincing at how great this is I’ll leave you with this: Wheeler Yuta left because he didn’t need to be a best friend….. he needs to be the best wrestler he can be.
** Side note, I’ll pop for anything that could give us a Mox/ Orange Cassidy moment
Ugh isn’t wrestling so great.
This is a lot for a two hour show. But that’s the standard for Dynamite apparently. We get pay-per-view worthy stuff on a random Wednesday night for free. You’d be a fool to miss this one.
