What would put the 2nd match over the 1st match for me is probably the litany of things that happened that more or less we've never seen in AEW ring, such as the usage of the flag, Osprey licking Kenny's blood, Kenny taking those headers into the announce desk piece, the Tiger Driver 91, etc etc

It was more "Western" or "sports entertainmenty" in many regards but I enjoy a good spectacle over all else, so that checks out as to why I would give it the edge

I think it was a mix of the two styles

No doubt, that's why I used the word "more" in this case because of course it was mostly based in their Japanese roots

entrances wise its tough, Kennys entrance was better at WK obviously. But Ospreay intro plus bringing back Elevation made me mark the fuck out
