4 Ups & 4 Downs From AEW Rampage (June 9)

2. Still Oddly Enjoying This

Yes, Aubrey Edwards and Karen Jarrett getting into an AEW ring could be 'Worst Match Of The Year' fodder in-waiting, but there's something different and altogether charming about this mini-feud that yours truly likes. It's old-school Memphis rasslin' style, which probs isn't a surprise with Jeff Jarrett involved.

Aubrey teaming with Mark and Papa Briscoe vs. Jay Lethal and the Jarretts will either be a riotous diversion from more serious matches, or it'll be a disaster. Either way, there is a section of the AEW fanbase ready to see Edwards ditch the ref shirt and throttle a literal Karen.

Who saw this coming when All Elite launched?!

Rampage featured a short promo train (conducted by Renee Paquette) that let everyone say their piece whilst hyping the upcoming mixed trios match. Good lord, this will be must-see whether it's somehow great or predictably the sh*ts.
