Ups & Downs For Every AEW Roster Member
28. Ricky Starks
Up
'Absolute' has been nothing short of immaculate since signing, establishing himself as a details-first wrestler and a master of the small things that make this sport so compelling, with the Darby Allin grudge match his most compelling outing to date.
Down
Starks still hasn't scored a pinfall on Dynamite, though this is such a minor complaint.
27. Santana & Ortiz
Up
The Parking Lot Brawl with Best Friends will go down as one of the best matches in Dynamite history. This was a sick, brutal, and ugly fight, with the plunder spots incorporated in ways that never felted stunted or inorganic - a rarity in modern wrestling.
A close second for Santana's mini-program with Jon Moxley, highlighting his and Ortiz's exciting babyface future.
Down
Santana and Ortiz have never broken away from the tag division's middle tier despite coming into the company with a big reputation. Here's hoping they push towards championship glory in 2021.
26. Sammy Guevara
Up
The entire Darby Allin story was a tremendous clash of two polar opposite personalities, with their brisk, bomb-filled brawl one of Revolution's biggest highlights. Guevara is so good in sub-ten-minuters.
Down
AEW made the right move in suspending Sammy when those awful comments made towards WWE's Sasha Banks re-emerged on social media. Here's hoping he has genuinely learned from the experience and grown as a human being.
25. Penelope Ford
Up
Levelling up in her AEW Women's World Championship match with Hikaru Shida highlighted Ford as a growing prospect in this promotion, and potentially somebody capable of anchoring the division if she continues on her current development curve.
Down
Fading almost entirely from the spotlight after said title match, becoming a secondary player in Miro and Kip Sabian's rivalry with Best Friends.
