6 Ups & 4 Downs From AEW Dynamite: Beach Break (Feb 3)

Ups...

6. Hostage Animal

Marko Stunt
AEW

Diverting FTR away from the immediate Tag Team Title picture was a smart move that prevents the immediate gratification of a Young Bucks rematch and keeps the potentially great Jurassic Express rivalry going after things heated up last year.

Dax Harwood, Tully Blanchard, and Cash Wheeler responded to being removed from the contendership battle royal by kidnapping Marko Stunt. It's a little wacky, sure, but their raging promos were on point and they've already trimmed Luchasaurus' horns from his mask. This gives the dinosaur and Jungle Boy yet another reason to want to stomp their skulls in.

This is a hateful, heated rivalry now, and worthy of a spot on the Revolution card.
