AEW Grand Slam Paris

AEW went international for Grand Slam Paris, and Tim and Dug are breaking down a Dynamite that delivered two legitimate Match of the Night contenders. Was Kyle Fletcher vs. Darby Allin even better than Kazuchika Okada vs. Will Ospreay? The guys debate their first-ever co-Matches of the Night after two different but outstanding performances. They also dig into AEW’s new Clockwork Carnage match and whether a match requiring “Phase One” and “Phase Two” might already be a little too complicated. Plus: Samoa Joe vs. Jack Perry, the strange direction of Perry’s current story, Jon Moxley and Gabe Kidd finding chemistry as a team, Queen Aminata’s strong showing against Mercedes Moné, Thekla continuing to get increasingly over, and Nick Wayne adding some fuel to his rivalry with Chris Jericho. Tim and Dug also question whether Swerve Strickland and Hangman Page overshadowed Bandido vs. Kofi Kingston, and look ahead to what that could mean for WrestleDream. Plus, the Paris crowd brings the heat, Tony Schiavone delivers an unfortunate Quote of the Night, and the Clockwork Carnage match desperately needs Orange Cassidy for reasons that should be obvious.
