AEW does not need another set of tag team titles. What it does need is structure, urgency and a reason for its tag division to feel like one of the company’s biggest selling points again. That is why a potential AEW Tag Team Continental Classic makes so much sense. Not as a new championship concept. … Read more
Last night’s AEW Dynamite was the type of show that explains both why AEW still has one of the strongest in-ring products in wrestling and why the company still frustrates people when it comes to week-to-week booking.

Last night’s AEW Dynamite felt like one of those shows that quietly did a lot more heavy lifting than it may get credit for at first glance.
