11 Bang Bang Scissor Gang Vs. Jeff Jarrett, Jay Lethal, Satnam Singh, Private Party & Willie Mack

Overall Rating From TheSportster: 4/10

The crowd did not care for this one bit unless Jay White and Billy Gunn were in the ring, but even then it was still fairly flat. The lack of storyline aside from the continued relationship between members of the Bang Bang Scissor Gang certainly didn’t help get anyone invested. The action was fine, but there were several sloppy moments and awkward sequences. For instance, Private Party just didn’t seem to be on the ball and Satnam Singh was clunky and his selling was dreadful. This left a lot to be desired and was not the best way to kick off a PPV, even if it was in the pre-show.

10 AEW All-Star Scramble - Number One Contender For AEW World Championship

Overall Rating From TheSportster: 4.75/10

This was just far too busy. The number of competitors led to this having a lot of mistiming, over-choreographed spots, and botches which left the match feeling quite awkward. The best part of the match was when the larger competitors had a “meat off”, and in truth the match should’ve just been that. Some parts of the match were fun and fine, but the PPV could’ve done without this as it wasn’t as good as it could’ve been.

9 Toni Storm Vs. Deonna Purrazzo - AEW Women’s World Championship

Overall Rating From TheSportster: 5/10

Technically speaking this match was fairly well-wrestled and Toni Storm’s character work was good as usual, but this bout had a distinct lack of energy to it, and the crowd weren’t overly invested. The finish was absolutely lazy too, with simple interference and distraction. After such a strong build and personal animosity, that wasn’t particularly felt throughout. It is a shame given the talent involved, but this simply did not hit the heights that many expected coming in.

8 Julia Hart & Skye Blue Vs. Willow Nightingale & Kris Statlander

Overall Rating From TheSportster: 6/10

The heel and babyface dynamic was great here, with Hart & Blue putting in some strong character work in their heat segments, and with Nightingale & Statlander portraying powerful babyfaces. The in-ring work in the match was strong, though in the middle of the bout things did get a little disjointed and messy. For the most part though, the crowd were pretty into this match and there were several strong moments, particularly Skye Blue’s missile dropkick on the outside of the ring, Nightingale’s pounce, and Hart’s moonsault. It perhaps arguably ran a little too long, because, as noted, it did get slightly lethargic in some moments.

7 Christian Cage Vs. Daniel Garcia - TNT Championship

Overall Rating From TheSportster: 7.75/10

This was a slow burn, with Christian Cage methodically dominating the early stages, but as the match progressed they controlled the crowd perfectly, who got louder and louder as Daniel Garcia found himself more and more in the match.

He showed great fire as he fought off all members of The Patriarchy, getting some close near-falls. The formula was fairly simple, but the two men expertly pulled it off. Just as the match was getting into gear, Cage pulled out of the win. There was certainly more these two men had to give, but what they produced was strong anyway.

6 Orange Cassidy Vs. Roderick Strong - AEW International Championship

Overall Rating From TheSportster: 7.75/10

Roderick Strong looked fantastic here as he systemically wore down an already damaged Orange Cassidy, targeting his back in a brutal back-breaking assault. Cassidy was gutsy once again, but in what was a very good booking move, he lost the belt and the International Championship received a change. The post-match return of Kyle O’Reilly was a big shock, and it added much needed interest to the Undisputed Kingdom. This was exactly what it needed to be - fast-paced, hard-hitting, and a new champion.

5 Eddie Kingston Vs. Daniel Bryan - AEW Continental Crown Championship

Overall Rating From TheSportster: 8.25/10

The hatred between these two men was felt as this match was filled with stiff, hard-hitting shots to one another in the form of kicks, chops, and the exchange of submission moves which was done to technical brilliance. Danielson was his usual brutal self, and Kingston showcased all the heart that fans love so dearly. Things got ugly towards the end, in a good way, with the shots getting more violent and harsh. Kingston’s win was a good moment, though the finish did somewhat come abruptly. Either way, though, the pair went to war.

4 Samoa Joe Vs. Swerve Strickland Vs. Adam Page (AEW World Championship)

Overall Rating From TheSportster: 8.5/10

Triple threat matches aren’t the easiest to pull off, but these three men did a pretty solid job of keeping the action exciting, fluid, and full of storytelling, mostly due to the ongoing hatred between Swerve Strickland and Adam Page. Page’s descent into madness was handled well, though there were some mistimed spots and moments which did affect the pacing slightly. However, this was still a great match which developed this story effectively whilst also making Samoa Joe look like a strong champion.

3 Jon Moxley & Claudio Castagnoli Vs. FTR

Overall Rating From TheSportster: 8.5/10

Tag team expertise was on full show here, as all four men had great tag team psychology, wonderful teamwork, and a whole load of intensity, especially after Dax Harwood was busted wide open. The action was fluid and everything was executed wonderfully, which led to the crowd getting more invested as the bout went on. Even though Moxley & Castagnoli are predominantly singles competitors, they looked like seasoned tag team wrestlers, going toe-to-toe the whole way with FTR. This was a thrilling war.

2 Will Ospreay Vs. Konosuke Takeshita

Overall Rating From TheSportster: 9/10

This acted as a great start to Will Ospreay’s career as an AEW wrestler. He pulled out all his greatest hits and took a whole load of punishment from a dominant Konosuke Takeshita who also looked fantastic here. The pair hit each other hard, slammed each other with massive moves, and had some electric sequences that the crowd loved.

10 AEW Signings That Are Still Struggling In 2024

The focus here was on the cracking ring work rather than the story, but this did not affect the quality of the match between the ropes, which just got better and more incredible as it went on, with each man putting their bodies through insane punishment.

1 Sting & Darby Allin Vs. The Young Bucks - AEW World Tag Team Championships (Tornado)

Overall Rating From TheSportster: 9.25/10

This was a complete and utter car crash and there was nothing else it should have been. Sting put his all into his final ever wrestling match, and from his entrance to the stunning reaction he received from the crowd as he won the match, this was perfect. It was a celebration of Sting’s career and AEW run, with tables, glass, crazy spots, and even multiple faces of Sting thanks to his two sons. It wasn’t pretty, but it followed the formula of most of Sting’s AEW matches. An incredible way to bow out on a legendary career.
