13 Ups & 6 Downs From AEW Dynamite (Nov 27)

10. Out For Blood

Dustin Rhodes
AEW

How many modern pro-wrestling babyfaces are as easy to root for as Dustin Rhodes? A few, perhaps, but no more than you could count on one hand.

Dustin remains a master of squeeze immense support out of small things. Here, he got a brief interview spot with Jenn Decker, in which he was full of p*ss and vinegar as he said "Jake Hager! You broke my arm, and now I'm out for your blood!". From there, he could barely get his next sentence out as Sammy Guevara, Ortiz, and Santana jumped him from behind, before The Young Bucks ran out for the save, setting up a mixed tag match for next week.

Good, solid, pro-wrestling booking, and that Dustin/Hager singles bout is going to be hot, particularly if it's the former Jack Swagger's first proper match in the promotion.
