7 Ups & 4 Downs From AEW Dark (Sep 15)

Ups...

7. Penelope Ford vs. Dani Jordyn

Penelope Ford Kip Sabian

A fun match here, with Dani Jordyn's Mean Girls gimmick played up to good effect.

Jordyn left her Burn Book sitting at ringside while working Ford. Kip Sabian decided to be nosy and started skimming through it, finding Penelope's page. Showing it to Ford levelled the 'Superbad Girl' up, prompting her to rip the page into pieces, stuff them in Jordyn's mouth, and eventually score the pin after a missile front dropkick and Fisherman's Suplex.

The gimmickry separated it from the rest of the content on last night's Dark, and the wrestling in-between was solid as well.
