Baron Black worked more AEW matches than almost anyone else on the list. In total, his haul currently sits at 52. Not bad for somebody who wrestled as part of the Dark and Dark: Elevation crew. Black did get to debut on the 'A' show though - he lost to Shawn Spears in a short bout on the 29 April 2020 Dynamite.

It was off to Dark after that.

Baron has had more tag partners than anyone else on the old YouTube programs. Check this out for a list: Tony Donati, Frank Stone, D3, Louie Valle, Nick Comorato, Frankie Thomas, VSK, Fuego Del Sol, Mike Verna, Royal Money, Shawn Dean, Aaron Solow, John Skyler, M'Badu, Tamilian Vaneesh and Ryzin. That's just some of them, not all.

A lot of those names could've made it into this article themselves, but they either didn't get the early Dynamite treatment or didn't work too many matches on the lower-tier shows. Some of them were one-offs too. Black wasn't, but he's still tough to remember unless Dark was appointment viewing.
