10 Best AEW Matches Ever (According To The Internet)

10. Hangman Page Vs. Jon Moxley - Revolution 2023 (9.28/10 Per Cagematch)

There's nothing better in wrestling than an excellent match studded with great ideas that isn't convoluted or masturbatory, and the Jon Moxley Vs. Hangman Page Texas Death match struck that sweet spot.

It never lost the tone of an ultra-violent war because every plunder spot was arranged in such a subtle, practically hidden way that it felt like they were arrived at organically. The level of thought existed to make it feel like no thought had been put into the match at all, that it was a spontaneous war. In a great spot, Mox grabbed a fork and repeatedly jabbed it into Page's forehead when he had him trapped in a triangle choke. 'Death Jitsu' isn't just a cool-sounding slogan with which to sell t-shirts; in this match, it was an omni-badass genre fusion. The garbage element wasn't artless; Mox located a way to use weapons to compound the damage he was already delivering.

Fate conspired to enhance this feeling when Page took a header into a suspended barbed wire chair, which took a chunk out of his hair.

Deeper in the match, Page was blasted through a barbed wire board suspended across two chairs, and was only able to survive by propping himself up on one of them. Every spot logically informed the next.

Bloodline fans look away: the finish, a lesson on the glorification of violence, was actually a nod to Western cinema!
