Diana Prince, Johnny Taylor, and Gringo Fantastico unpack the first Dynamite after Revolution, covering Will Ospreay’s quick win and immediate neck-war escalation with Jon Moxley and Pac, plus Mox and Wheeler Yuta’s uneasy tag victory that proves the Death Riders are anything but stable. They dig into Darby Allin and Gabe Kidd’s completely unhinged parking-lot beatdown that turns into a Coffin Match, Swerve Strickland’s promo where he stops talking about just the AEW World Title and starts calling his shot at Kenny Omega’s EVP power, and Speedball Mike Bailey’s “I earned this” showcase victory over Mark Davis. The crew also covers Mina Shirakawa beating Marina Shafir in a no holds barred fight using Toni Storm’s own Storm Zero as the mystery attacker angle deepens, the Jurassic Express bus delivering Jack Perry to team with the Young Bucks against Okada and Best Friends, and the closing scene where Adam Copeland and Christian Cage announce they are coming for FTR at Dynasty and finish the night holding the tag belts while the Bucks watch from the floor.

The AEW-Some Pod is back for episode 223 with hosts Diana Prince, Johnny Taylor, and Gringo Fantastico, to talk some good ole Texas Death Match Fallout and this past weekend's nearly 5-hour Pay Per View, AEW Revolution! The Bucks and FTR had one of the best matches of their respective careers ending with the return of two legends, hellbent on revenge. Toni Storm finds out what it's like to get "Rowdy" after her match with Marina Shafir. Takeshita and Moxley exceed the normal 20 minute time limit for their Continental Championship match resulting in a return only made possible by a Star Wars Bacta tank and three gallons of Red Bull. Andrade and Bandito played a weird game of "Pants off Dance off" resulting in one of the top matches of the night! The women's tag team championship match led to a surprise upset. The Toxic Spider went 2 out of three falls in a hell of a banger. Swerve attempted to teach us who the real most violent man is as long as Omega didn't obstruct... Oh, wait. New trios champions were crowned. It was insanity at it's finest, until insanity was redefined by the the AEW World Heavyweight Championship Texas Death Match (takes breath) between Hangman Adam Page and current champ, the double cross ranch's own MJF, in what could possibly be the most violence injecting (See what I did there?), bloody, dog collar wearing, light bulb flinging, rig exploding, barbed wire infusing, Texas Death Match in history! Was inflicting this amount of pain excessive? Possibly. Was it AEW-some? Absolutely!

It's episode 222 of the AEW-Some Pod, and your favorite trio of a comedian and two horror hosts, Johnny Taylor, Diana Prince, and Gringo Fantastico, is here to break down the action inside of the Mission Ballroom in the "mile high city" of Denver, Colorado! Moxley goes face to face with Hologram's better side, El Clon. Swerve Strictland lets us all know his frustrations with AEW and one fan's "momma!" Gabe Kidd continues to take up air time. Kevin Knight and Mansoor have a high flying match up, while Brody King and Mark Davis have a clubbing session. The AEW Women's tag team title ends with concern, while unsurprisingly, MJF attempts to swerve the upcoming World Heavyweight championship match with a fake coin to manipulate before Hangman can stipulate. (Rhyming is fun!) The main event could have been a show all of it's own as the Rascalz, the Bucks, and Jack Perry went above and beyond as they took on the The Demand's Ricochet and the Gates of Agony along with FTR in Mile High Madness where anything goes and it most certainly does!
