21 Things You Probably Missed From AEW Dynamite (Jan 1)

It's maddening that AEW see fit to place big bumps and near falls during commercial breaks. The latest example came when Allin hit a beautiful Sunset Flip Powerbomb out of the corner on Cody and got a two count for his troubles.

If you were watching on TNT, you didn't see that until after the ads, which is stupid. Major spots shouldn't happen screen-in-screen or during breaks. That's one thing that needs to change in 2020.
