AEW Dynamite February 22nd, 2023: Tag Team Battle Royal + Jon Moxley vs Evil Uno & More

Not coming off as snobbish or anything of the sort, and if I do I will reword it, but OC vs Yuta makes some sense on paper given their connection to CHIKARA and how Yuta's team, Xyberhawk 2000, replaced The Colony, the team OC began as Fire Ant. As for Yuta himself, he does come off as bit of a try hard, but I think that is part of the gimmick given he was always a "Kid's Character", for lack of a better term, and now he wants to be serious.

AEW head Tony Khan is holding his cards close to the vest regarding tonight's "important" announcement on Dynamite that was first promoted on last Friday's Rampage.

Talking to the Phoenix New-Times to hype up the promotion's debut in Phoenix, Arizona, tonight, he said, "Hah. Well, I can't tell you right now, but it's something I'm very excited about and it's great for the company."

Whether it was regarding a second AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door this summer, Khan didn't give any hints, simply saying, "There are a lot of exciting things in the near future for AEW. All I can say is we have an important announcement coming at this show in Phoenix. And it's an exciting development for the company, and I'm excited to share it with the fans in Phoenix and all over the world."

Hell some of them it wouldn’t matter what it is. Hell TK could announce he’s buying the WWE, and they would be like “Another big announcement hyped up to be nothing!” I got to the point I drown those idiots out because they won’t ever be happy.

Can't believe this has already been confirmed. Amazing.

 

[Leon TrotSky]

Listen, Tony. I've lived through years of Dixie Carter promising "earth-shattering announcements" to pop the numbers. It's just a tactic. You're fooling no one.

Still watching to see what it is though because I am a sheep

 

[Marty McFourth]

Wish I could watch live Very excited though. I'm sure the Tag Royale will be lots of fun as I enjoy CHAOS. OC/Yuta going to be a banger in my opinion, OC has just consistently been delivering great matches as champion & I can see their chemistry being fire tonight.

I am intrigued about Mox/Uno depending on how much time it gets because Uno can deliver hugely when given the opportunity to tear it up.

Akira Taue, Kenta Kobashi, Toshiaki Kawada, and Jun Akiyama are only pillars left. Kenta also couldn't do anything because of the nerve damage in his hands/arms.

 

[Comrade Khan]

he can kick and talk shit
