Nothing to set the world alight but both women gave as good as they got and in the end it was everything a Dark debut could be against enhancement talent that are, unfortunately, never booked as aggressively as signed talent.

Match #1: Dark Order (John Silver & Alex Reynolds) def. The Outrunners (Turbo Floyd & Truth Magnum)
My Thoughts: Well this was a decent opener! I’m not sold on The Outrunners, who currently feel more like a gimmick than a legitimate tag team, but they certainly held their own against Reynolds and Silver. Though the angle with Aubrey was weird…
My Score: 2.5 out of 5 Match #2: Riho def. Diamante
My Thoughts: Damn! This was a fantastic match. Diamante had an actual decent opponent in Riho – after all, she’s been demolishing enhancement talent on Aew’s YouTube shows for a while now (in both singles and tag matches) so this was really refreshing! This should be run back on Rampage Imho.

Welcome to this week’s review of Aew: Dynamite, which was broadcast live from the Golden 1 Center in Sacramento, California. We’ve got Excalibur, Tony Schiavone and Taz on commentary so let’s get into the review!
Match #1: All-Atlantic Championship Match – Orange Cassidy def. Jay Lethal The following is courtesy of allelitewrestling.com:
Cassidy was wrestling a very scientific match early on. Lethal was looking for the Lethal Injection but Cassidy anticipated it and tried to counter with the swinging Ddt but that was scouted by Lethal. Orange Cassidy rammed Lethal into the ring post. Lethal fought back by whipping Orange into the steel ring steps. Cassidy reversed a hammer throw into the ropes, but Lethal chop blocked Orange’s knee. Lethal picked up Orange and plowed him into the steel ring post with a knee breaker. Cassidy rallied back with two DDTs for a near fall! Orange tried...

Welcome back to another review of Aew Dark: Elevation, which features seven matches on the card. We’ve got regulars Paul Wight and Matt Menard on commentary as usual. So let’s get into the review!
Match #1: Juice Robinson def. Fuego del Sol
My Thoughts: Fuego del Sol going up against Juice Robinson? I’m not sure if Fuego has had a come-up or Robinson has had a step-down. But given Robinson’s high profile in Japan I didn’t expect him to be wrestling Any matches on YouTube for Aew… but hey, I don’t know everything. Still a decent match-up and Fuego at least is back working again – dude’s been missed Imho.
My Score: 2.5 out of 5 Match #2: Athena def. Evelyn Carter

Welcome back to another review of Aew Dark: Elevation, which features eight matches on the card. We’ve got regulars Paul Wight and Matt Menard on commentary as usual. So let’s get into the review!
Match #1: Dark Order def. El Dragon, El Cobarde, and Vary Morales
My Thoughts: I’ll repeat Exactly what I said last week… Another win (and appearance in fact) for Dark order on Aew’s YouTube shows. No sure what the plan is for this now-diminished faction but they’re back doing skits about hiring folks to be in the group on Bte, so maybe that’s a good sign? Otherwise, this was your typical Dark Order squash match against enhancement talent.
My Score: 1 out of 5 Match #2: Big Bill def. Gino
My Thoughts: Squash! And one that went on too long for a squash match. Ridiculous.
My Score: 1 out of 5 Match #3: Jade Cargill and Leila Grey def.

So let’s get into the review!
Match #1: Red Velvet def. Billie Starkz
My Thoughts: What a cracking start to this week’s Elevation. Red Velvet and Billie Starkz put on a great competitive match that made Bille Starkz look good in defeat and was a great showcase for Red Velvet – who’s surely going to be the one to, given recent events, dethrone Jade Cargill? Loved this one.

Another week, another episode of Aew: Dark which this week features eight matches and takes us back to the typical Dark studio setting rather than coming from on the road… Anyway, on with the review.
Match #1: Britt Baker def. Billie Starkz
My Thoughts: This was a fantastic opening match, with Billie Starkz giving Britt Baker a decent run, almost getting the win with a super-close pinfall attempt. Starkz even made Baker bleed! Apparently this was filmed a while ago, which takes some of the momentum out of the finished product but still, I really enjoyed this one.
My Score: 3 out of 5 Match #2: Dark Order def. Baliyan Akki, Marcus Kross & Vary Morales
My Thoughts: Dark Order versus enhancement talent… Oh, I wonder who;s going to win this one? And what do you know, it’s also a squash! Yes, this one weas another by-the-book Aew YouTube match for the Dark Order.

We’ve got Paul Wight and Matt Menard on commentary, with Roh’s Ian Riccaboni added to the mix this week… so let’s get into the review.
Match #1: Skye Blue def. Zoe Dubois
My Thoughts: Nice to see Skye Blue open a show and Zoe Dubois was an interesting opponent, someone who’s style is certainly unique. This wasn’t anything remarkable and certainly not up to the standard of Blue’s more recent matches. Still, a great start to this week’s Elevation.
My Score: 2 out of 5 Match #2: The Butcher and The Blade def. David McCallion and Richie Slade

Welcome back to another review of Aew Dark: Elevation, which features a sub-1 hour show this week, with only 8 matches on the card, which pleases me a Lot! We’ve got Paul Wight and Matt Menard on commentary, so let’s get into the review.
Match #1: Emi Sakura, Marina Shafir and Nyla Rose def. Johnnie Robbie, Vipress and Zyra
My Thoughts: This match saw a return to the Shafir/Rose/Vickie squabbles that we’ve seen previously – they’re obviously building to the split between the trio but at the same time I’ve enjoyed the teaming of Nyla Rose’s intensity with Vickie Guerrero’s brash attitude and I’ll miss it when the split does happen. As for this match? It felt more like an angle than a match but still, an Aew quasi-squash is still an Aew quasi-squash!
My Score: 1 out of 5 Match #2: Daniel Garcia def.

Match #1: Christopher Daniels def. Brian Pillman Jr.
My Thoughts: It’s great to see Christopher Daniels in action again, even if it is on Dark. This was a decent back and forth, with an outcome that was always in doubt (which is great to see!). Daniels hit the Bme for the crowd-pleasing finish.
My Score: 2.5 out of 5 Match #2: Emi Sakura def. Jada Stone
My Thoughts: Jada Stone got one move in here, I’m not sure that even qualifies as a typical Aew quasi-squash Tbh. Not much wet on here, so not much more to say than that!
My Score: 1 out of 5 Match #3: Ryan Nemeth def. Dak Draper

Match #1: Hikaru Shida def. Tyra Russamee
My Thoughts: This was a typical Aew squash match of the highest order, with Tyra Russamee taking a beating from Shida – only avoiding Shida rather than offering any of her own offence.
My Score: 1 out of 5 Match #2: Varsity Athletes (Tony Nese and Josh Woods) def. Pillars of Destiny (Hunter Grey and Paul Titan)
My Thoughts: This was decidedly average. Both teams seemed to struggle making this one feel like a smooth wrestling match and instead felt too scrappy to make any impact.

Match #1: 300,000 Three Kings Christmas Casino Trios Royale The following is courtesy of allelitewrestling.com:
Rush wrapped the TV camera cord around Orange’s neck and began to pull back. Preston Vance planted Chuck Taylor with a spinebuster. The Blackpool Combat Club came out next and entered the ring like a wrecking ball! Kip Sabian stomped on Orange Cassidy in the corner. Dark Order entered the fray next! They charged right at Preston Vance, their former partner. Orange Cassidy jumped off the top rope with a crossbody press but was caught by Claudio, Evil Uno, and Alex Reynolds!

‘The Good Nurse’ Star Eddie Redmayne Found Humanity in the Inhumane for the Netflix True Crime Drama
Click here to read the full article.
In Tobias Lindholm’s Netflix drama The Good Nurse, Eddie Redmayne plays real-life serial killer Charlie Cullen, who at first seems like a sweet, docile hospital nurse until it’s revealed over the course of the film that he’s been stealthily killing perhaps hundreds of patients — for no apparent reason. Fellow Oscar winner Jessica Chastain stars as Cullen’s colleague Amy Loughren, who discovers Cullen’s crimes and fights a corrupt medical system to expose him.
Loughren’s fight served as the subject of Charles Graeber’s nonfiction book of the same name, which became the basis for the script by Krysty Wilson-Cairns (a best screenplay Oscar nominee for 1917). Loughren met with both Redmayne and Chastain prior to filming and even visited the set. After six years of production, with stops and starts as funding came and went, her story is finally out in the world.

James Marsh's 2014 biopic "The Theory of Everything" might serve as the modern "baseline reading" for Hollywood biopics. It tells a rather straightforward story of the life of Professor Stephen Hawking, who was, when he passed away in 2018, the head of theoretical cosmology at Cambridge.
When it came to astrophysics, no mind has yet surpassed Hawking's, and the man had a passion for the way the universe fundamentally functioned. He possessed an acerbic sense of humor and a randy sensibility that would eventually lead to instances of infidelity and, later, a frankly open marriage. Hawking also lived for many years with Als, leaving him unable to move most of the muscles in his body, and requiring the use of a speaking computer in order to communicate. His 1988 book "A Brief History of Time" was read by millions of people and understood by about 10 of them.
Marsh's film follows Hawking's...

In addition to bestowing Variety’s Legends and Groundbreakers Award on Ron Howard, the festival will recognize several creatives at their 2022 Festival Honors on Oct. 16 and Eddie Redmayne on Oct. 15.
Eddie Redmayne
Icon Award
When Oscar winner Redmayne sat down in his first production meeting for “The Good Nurse,” his daughter had just been born. His daughter is 6 now as the feature is finally seeing its Netflix debut on Oct. 26.
“It’s been a passion project, and it’s been one of those projects that each step of the way has been massively enjoyable, despite the intensity of the subject matter,” Redmayne says. The feature, directed by Tobias Lindholm, is inspired by the true crimes of nurse Charlie Cullen who was investigated by nurse Amy Loughren, played by Jessica Chastain.
“With this film, I was really lucky that, firstly, I was able to meet the real Amy Loughren,” Redmayne says.

Match #1: Claudio Castagnoli, Jon Moxley & Wheeler Yuta def. Isiah Kassidy, Marq Quen & Rush The following is courtesy of allelitewrestling.com:
William Regal joined the commentary team for this match. The Firm watched from the front row. Kassidy and Yuta chain wrestled. Wheeler rolled up Kassidy for a near fall. Rush tagged in and taunted Moxley. Moxley tagged in and he and Rush slugged it out in the center of the ring. Mox charged in with a high boot to Rush’s jaw. Moxley planted Rush with a stalling German suplex. Marq Quen inadvertently kicked Rush when...

Another week, another episode of Aew: Dark which, after last week’s short five-match card, is a whopping 11-match show..! Let’s just say I prefer the shorter shows. Let’s get right into the review!
Match #1: John Silver & Alex Reynolds def. Zuka & Alexander Moss
My Thoughts: I’m in a constant state of worry about the current 4-man roster of the Dark Order. It seems like the further away from the death of Brodie Lee, the more Tony Khan seems to be abandoning this team. I do sometimes wonder if not for their connection to Hangman Page, would they all still be in Aew? Which is a shame because the Dark Order, and in particular John Silver & Alex Reynolds, always deliver great matches – even on Dark and Elevation!
My Score: 2.5 out of 5 Match #2: Emi Sakura def. Avery Breaux

Academy Award winners Eddie Redmayne and Jessica Chastain bring a harrowing hospital true crime saga to life with “The Good Nurse.”
The Netflix film, helmed by BAFTA-winning filmmaker Tobias Lindholm (“The Investigation”), tells the disturbingly true tale of serial killer nurse Charles Cullen (Eddie Redmayne), who is believed to have murdered as many as 400 patients over the course of his 16-year career in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. Cullen killed patients by administering lethal doses of insulin and other potentially fatal drugs; he confessed to killing up to 40 people and is currently serving 17 consecutive life sentences in prison.
Cullen’s coworker and fellow nurse Amy Loughren (Chastain) ultimately led to Cullen’s capture. Loughren grew suspicious of Cullen after detectives investigated an unusual death at the hospital where they worked.
Based on Charles Graeber’s 2013 book “The Good Nurse: A True Story of Medicine, Madness, and Murder,” the thriller premieres October...

Welcome to this review of 2022’s All Out pay-per-view, which once again emanated from Chicago and saw home town boy Cm Punk challenge once again for the Aew World Title and a couple of surprises up its sleeve – but No, I don’t mean new additions to the roster! Let’s get into it…
Zero Hour: Match #1: Aaa Mixed Tag Team Championship Match – Ortiz & Ruby Soho def. Sammy Guevara & Tay Melo
My Thoughts: This started out so well, with Ortiz and Soho running Sammy over with a gold cart in a brilliant call-back to Sammy’s experience with said vehicle. Ortiz looked like a machine in this match, delivering some strong, hard moves to combat Guevara’s speed and agility. This match moved fast, with only a brief lull in action whilst it looked like, the teams recovered from the ridiculous fast-paced, high impact in-ring action! Wrong team won...

Welcome to this review of a special pre-All Out Aew Dark: Elevation. We’ve got Tony Schiavone and Matt Menard on commentary for this bonus episode so let’s see what the show has to offer!
Match #1: Sammy Guevara and Tay Melo def. Gpa and Laynie Luck
My Thoughts: The only thing I took away from this match was that a) I’m tired of the Sammy and Tay schtick and b) How the f*ck does that pair get three matches in two weeks whilst Eddie Kingston is stuck with one match on the All Out pre-show? Screams a desperate attempt to squash the “Sammy is har to work with” rumours Tbh.
My Score: 1 out of 5 Match #2: Swerve in our Glory (Swerve Strickland and Keith Lee) def. Jah-c and Storm Grayson

It’s Monday morning, so you know what that means… it’s time for our review of Friday night’s episode of Aew: Rampage, which emanates from the Wolstein Center in Cleveland, Ohio. We’ve got Tony Schiavone, Excalibur, Jim Ross And Chris Jericho on commentary this week, so let’s get to the review!
Match #1: Trios Title Tournament – Dark Order def. The House of Black The following is courtesy of allelitewrestling.com:
Brody King and Ten began with a collar and elbow tie-up. They collided in the center of the ring, neither man budging. Ten clutched his leg and then tagged out to John Silver. Buddy Matthews and John Silver chain wrestled until Buddy blasted Silver with a spinning roundhouse kick. Alex Reynolds tagged in and dodged a kick from Malakai Black. Alex and Malakai had a shoving match until all the men entered and a melee broke out.

Another week, another episode of Aew: Dark which emanates from Aew Universal once again. We’ve got Taz and Excalibur on commentary as usual, so let’s get to the action!
Match #1: The Renegade Twins def. Rocky Radley & Allie Recks
My Thoughts: The Renegade Twins get to face the enhancement talent rather than Be the enhancement talent? What a shocker. And they got some decent competition in Radley and Recks (that’s actually one hell of a tag team name Imho), making this another… let’s say it together… Aew quasi-squash match!
My Score: 1.5 out of 5 Match #2: Anthony Ogogo def. Meto
My Thoughts: This was Anthony Ogogo doing his usual thing of playing with his opponent, this time for longer than usual. I do wonder where Ogogo’s career can go beyond these kinds of matches?
My Score: 2 out of 5 Match #3: Peter Avalon & Ryan Nemeth def. Adrian Alanis...

Welcome to this week’s review of Aew Dark: Elevation, the opening salvo in the Aew wrestling week. We’ve got a repeat of last week’s commentary team, Excalibur and Matt Menard, for this episode so let’s see what the show has to offer!
Match #1: Anna Jay def. Nikki Victory
My Thoughts: Another short and sweet squash match for Anna Jay, who traded in the fin and happy mood of the Dark Order for a more serious and more importantly vicious attitude. And it works. Now she just needs to get more competitive matches under her belt.
My Score: 1 out of 5 Match #2: Ruby Soho & Ortiz def. Queen Aminata & Mickey Midas
My Thoughts: Interesting… Undoubtedly because of Sammy and Tay’s championship, it seems Aew are getting into the mixed tag match scene – giving Ruby and Ortiz some practice before their match against the aforementioned Sammy and Tay at All Out.

Welcome to this week’s review of Aew Dark: Elevation, the opening salvo in the Aew wrestling week. We’ve got a new duo on commentary this week, Excalibur and Matt Menard..?! Let’s see what the show has to offer.
Match #1: Josh Woods and Tony Nese def. Arik Cannon and Tristan Davis
My Thoughts: Dull quasi-squash and a waste of the talent involved.
My Score: 1 out of 5 Match #2: Dark Order def. Tug Cooper, Drew System, Rylie Jackson and Adam Grace
My Thoughts: Fun multi-man squash. Dark ORder did their thing with aplomb as usual.
My Score: 1 out of 5 Match #3: Serena Deeb def. Sierra
My Thoughts: Sierra put in a decent showing last week and despite facing the queen of the enhancement talent squash, she also managed to showcase herself her too, breaking out of a number of Deeb’s moves. More from Sierra please Tony Khan!
