7 Ups & 4 Downs From AEW Dark (Oct 22)

PAC Bloody
AEW

PAC needs no longer than 30 seconds to cut one of the most convincing heel promos in the business.

'The Bastard's' deep vocal tone, perma-scowl, and body language drip with resentment, indignation, and rage. Covered in blood, Dark saw him claim his appearance was "a product of one man, Jon Moxley," who he has "done nothing but help since the moment [he] arrived," having stepped in at All Out and "laid Kenny Omega on a plate" a few weeks ago.

"This is your definition of gratitude?", PAC asked Moxley. "'I'm going to make you regret the day you betrayed 'The Bastard.'"

Those words were all PAC needed. This promo ruled. As if Moxley vs. PAC wasn't already enticing enough...
