AEW Dynamite – Episode 164 “Thanksgiving Eve” (11.23.2022) (Wrestling Review)

This match works perfect for Orange Cassidy. It focused on a hat and they had their spots around it. Hager doesn’t matter at all so losing doesn’t hurt him. Crowd was into it though. 

2.5 / 5

Starks being hurt gave you the slight thought maybe Page would win, even though we all knew there was zero chance. Starks got his comeback story in the match and the crowd is behind him. We know he’s not beating MJF but it should be a good match. 

2.5 / 5

Not their best match together but this was still fun. A lot of call backs to other things including the CM Punk drama and big spots galore. The win gives the champs the upper hand even though this is going to go 7 matches for sure. 

 3 / 5

Odd first match for Hayter as champ but this is just slowly setting up Hayter vs Britt. The match itself though wasn’t really anything special or memorable at all. 

2 / 5

Ishii is super over with the crowd. This was the exact type of match you’d expect from him. A lot of hard slaps and hits, Jerichos chest was bleeding, and it was super bruised. Ishii was close to winning but Jericho took it at the last second. Fun match and a good end to the show. 

3.5 / 5
