10 Ups & 4 Downs From AEW Dynamite (Jun 10)
8. Orange Squash
Best Friends and Orange Cassidy vs. Jake Hager and Proud and Powerful was about what you'd expect. Just a fun, fast-flowing six-man tag with Best Friends carrying the defensive load, before 'Freshly Squeezed' was unleashed with his evasive comedy shtick, levelling up when he needed to. He ended up scoring the fall on Ortiz while the other participants were preoccupied.
Commentator Chris Jericho was understandably enraged by this. He went right after Cassidy, first with his baseball bat, then with a huge sack of oranges. 'Freshly Squeezed' was bleeding from the ear after the attack. Blood oranges, lads. That's the gag.
Though the post-match went on a little too long, this was a net positive on the whole and now leads to Best Friends vs. Le Sex Gods, with Trent and Chuck Taylor putting their banked Tag Team Title shot on the line. From there, the storyline can spin-off in a number of different directions. Jericho and Sammy Guevara vs. Kenny Omega and Hangman Page would be a hoot.
