The H-E-B Center (sounds like an STD clinic) in Cedar Park, Texas is home to this weeks DyNoMyte.
Eight man tornado tag match. There were a bunch of actual tornadoes in Texas recently. We'll see how often the announcers use the word "tornado." I'm guessing they limit it. Sting and Darby vs The Hardy's vs The Butcher and The Blade vs Private Party. I wonder if Sting and Jeff will work together in this one? I hope they do. Tough to call a winner here. I want to say Matt and Jeff but I don't want Sting and Darby to take an L. Hopefully The Bunny is there. The Bunny Hop is a W for everyone.
Chris Jericho and Daniel Garcia against Alex Reynolds and John Silver. My guess is we're going to see a lot of bad comedy in this one before The J.A.S gets the win.
Bryan Danielson and Jon Moxley vs The Varsity Blonds. According to Meltzer, William Regal will be in Moxley & Danielson's corner, while Julia Hart will accompany The Varsity Blonds. Mox and Danielson are going to punish Griff Garrison & Brian Pillman Jr.
Red Velvet vs Leyla Hirsch. Legla is winning this.
MJF will speak. I have to think something goes down here with Wardlow.
CM Punk will be back. Who will his next feud be? They'll almost certainly be coming out during his interview/promo. I'd be really happy if Miro came out.
Add anything else you see.

Punk wants to go after the belt so I imagine this leads to a triple threat with Cole and Page.

Adam cole vs jay lethal added, lethal is laughably the number 3 ranked contender apparently.

The rankings are meaningless and can change with two weeks of squash matches on Dark/Elevation. That said, it does perturb me that of all the people under AEW contract like the only person with a losing record is Jamie Hayter. Da hell we doing out here.

Tonight's card rules so hard. MJF promo, Punk is back, Hardys/Sting/Darby are teaming, Thunder Rosa title recognition, Lethal Vs Cole (!!), Jericho/Garcia wrestling, Mox and Danielson Vs Varsity Blondes...
How do they do it every week?

3/23! Just sayin'.
I wish AEW would get "serious" about the Rankings. All it would take is a short segment on each show similar to something you'd see on ESPN. They could also discuss it on social media, put it on their website, and of course YT. It would make the rankings mean something, and it'd add an extra flair (no not him) to the promotion that other promotions aren't doing (other than NJPW who uses records in their tournaments ... and it's awesome).

**THE FOLLOWING IS AN UNPAID ADVERTISEMENT FOR WFIGS RETRO WATCH NIGHT**Saturday afternoon, March 26 @ 4 pm ESTRWN crosses off yet another monumental event in the annals of pro wrestling! Revisit the familiar streets of Jacksonville, Florida, as loyal fans witness what turned out to be the final PPV of WCW's lineage. Resident Bobby Heenan guy The Brain leads us on another thrilling adventure back into the past with 2001's Greed! The World Heavyweight Title rested in the hands of Scott Steiner and the Magnificent Seven, and he expected his next defense to be a lead-pipe cinch. But one who hoped to upset his plans was Diamond Dallas Page, and he saw the Falls Count Anywhere affair as the perfect scenario to win away the richest prize in the land! Scott's brother Rick had gold of his own and looked to break the brawn of Booker T in his efforts to retain the US Heavyweight belt. The brain trust of M7, Ric Flair and Jeff Jarrett, looked to dispel the stink of Dusty Rhodes and his good son, Dustin. A brand new division would be honored with the crowning of the inaugural WCW Cruiserweight Tag Team. Two more titles would be on the line, as well as exciting action featuring Bam Bam Bigelow, Kanyon, Lex Luger, and so many more! Ted Turner may have lost, and World Championship Wrestling may be gone. But its memory continues with Retro Watch Night! Follow along on your medium of choice and join in this Saturday @ 4 pm EST in the Classics board! Where the past lives on! forum.wrestlingfigs.com/thread/360199/brains-retro-watch-night?page=516

A guy can go 60-0 in one year just by feasting on jobbers on AEW Dark Elevation with an occasional appearance on Rampage.

Oh so you think you're smart because you own one of those fancy calendars? Haha. Tony Khan has announced that CM Punk vs Dax Harwood is opening the show.

I think someone who goes 12 - 4 on Dynamite/Rampage against top level talent should have more pull in the rankings than someone who goes 16 - 0 against minor league talent on youtube.
HOWEVER
Take hockey for example. You'd play the teams in your own division more times than the teams in other divisions. So realistically, if your division was filled with weaker teams, you would/could rack up wins and points a lot easier than other teams. That would give you advantages in the playoffs. It's not exactly the same thing, but it is an example of a "real" ranking system that can have a similar flaw.

Hopefully we get closer to Moriarty joining Regal and the gang.

It's not exactly the same thing, but it is an example of a "real" ranking system that can have a similar flaw. And we do see that exact flaw in other sports without good salary caps. It happens in hockey too, but less since the cap does introduce some parity. But look at baseball, some teams can absolutely rack up the win % in a weak division when they just pay all the penalties. But I completely agree with the premise. I'd say a 50-50 record on dynamite/rampage is more meaningful than like 20-0 on dark.

Not a fan of the tap out finish, but a win for Punk in a good match.

This Tornado tag is carnage. The Butcher is in amazing shape.
