AEW Dynamite – Episode 167 “Winter Is Coming” (12.14.2022) (Wrestling Review)

These continue to be fun but not much different so far week to week. Maybe the upcoming stipulations will change things but I hope they don’t go to 7 and throw everyone off. 

3 / 5

Jungle Boy going by Jack Perry more is a good move. This was an okay match. Clearly Jungle Boy was gonna win but some things here were bad. Cage went a little slow in some moves and the final roll up looked horrendous. Kicking out of a Canadian Destroyer to lose to a roll up was odd too. 

2.75 / 5

Dominate squash for House Of Blacks return. 

1.5 / 5

A shocking match in many ways. Andretti making his debut and holding his own here against Jericho in a fast paced exciting match. Crowd was going insane for the match and couldn’t have been more over for Andretti. This was a rare thing and should be remembered for it. 

4 / 5

A decent match at best but crowd didn’t seem super into it. They like Soho but she just hasn’t done much since coming to AEW. This was more of a payback story match for Tay hurting her months back. Hopefully we see more of Soho going up from here. 

2.5 / 5

Starks has the potential to be a main event star eventually and this was a good showcase for it. The ending worked here for MJF being a heel and gives him his first title defense. This was a good match though and the end had some great moves and counters by both guys. 

3.5 / 5
