13 Ups & 2 Downs From AEW Dynamite (Feb 12)
4. Big Boy Stuff
The Inner Circle destroyed Jon Moxley after he'd beaten Santana, but Jeff Cobb wasn't waiting until next week's match to make his presence felt.
Chris Jericho called the big Hawaiian out from the back and Cobb marched down, hit the ring, and hit Mox with his eye-catching, Tour of the Islands finisher. Moxley was put down ahead of their big match next week and immediately, Cobb was installed as a monster.
This was a great exclamation point to cap an awesome night of action and Cobb is an exciting pick-up, provided he's here for longer than the angle dictates. AEW needs a few more powerhouses. Yes, Hager and Wardlow are going to be wrestling soon, but Cobb has a different skillset to both and should be a better fit here than he is in NJPW, where he doesn't quite suit the environment. He can become a big AEW player by doing big boy stuff alone, so let's hope he decides to stick around.
