4 Ups & 5 Downs From AEW Rampage (May 20)

4. Not Dominant Enough

Hmm, this guy isn't so sure it should be taking House Of Black nearly 10 minutes to beat a cobbled-together threesome like Fuego Del Sol, Evil Uno and 10. Malakai's crew are supposed to be one of the most imposing forces in all of AEW, but they didn't look it here.

Though true All Elite likes putting on good, competitive matches, they should really pick their spots. House Of Black looked less than for struggling to off lower-tier workers quickly - they should've battered Del Sol and Dark Order senseless in mere minutes, truthfully.

Also, there was no need for Uno's foot to be under the bottom rope when Brody King was pinning him for the win. That gave the babyface a subtle out, and made the referee look like an idiot for failing to spot it and counting anyway.

This just didn't work.
