14 Ups & 1 Down From AEW Dynamite (20 Nov)

Ups...

14. Luchasquashus

Luchasaurus Peter Avalon

"I'm about to turn you into motor oil, you fossil," said Peter Avalon as he prepared to face Luchasaurus. Big mistake. The prehistoric monster downed him with a single kick (preceded by that tricky little feint he throws), completed the murder with a big slam, then concluded the seconds-long squash with a single-handed pin on the lowly 'Librarian.'

Finally, AEW are mastering this match format. The ineffective early squashes are gone, replaced by dominant, one-sided maulings, and it was nice to see Luchasaurus getting some shine. Perhaps he'll get a few more of these before working a more substantial singles bout.
