6 Ups & 4 Downs From AEW Dynamite: Fyter Fest (20 July)

Ups...

6. BUTCH

John Silver Alex Reynolds The Butcher and The Blade
AEW

How did it take AEW this long to establish that The Butcher is The Meat Man's favourite wrestler?

A short, fun backstage segment built to what should be a fun Rampage match. John Silver and Alex Reynolds got battered after trying to buddy up with The Butcher and The Blade, who bounced Reynolds' head off the wall. 'Hangman' Adam Page then ran in to make the save and establish himself as Silver's partner for Rampage.

Hangman re-aligning with The Dark Order puts some juice back into the group after spending the past few months out of focus. Butcher and Blade, meanwhile, are a good mid-level tag team for the duo to get revenge over and beat.
