11 Ups & 2 Downs From AEW Dynamite (Aug 5)

8. Scorpio Sky vs. Cody Is Happening

That's it. That's the entry.

Just kidding.

Sky approached Cody in the tunnel as 'The American Nightmare' made his exit, setting up next week's TNT Championship challenge. This is a nice piece of booking beyond the obvious match quality, which should be excellent, as Scorpio cut a great promo on levelling-up during this week's episode of Dark, and it gives Cody some variety after facing independent wrestlers in his past two defences.

This is also the hardest TNT Title match to call since Cody faced Lance Archer, as it's easy to make a case for the surging Sky to walk away with the win, even if the Nightmare's reign isn't close to running out of steam yet. Such dilemmas exemplify good booking.
