Elsewhere, the tournament to crown Women's Tag Team Champions chugs along with the Babes of Wrath battling The Sisters of Sin in the semi-finals and Toni Storm announces her and Mina's stipulation for their own semi-final next week. Plus, Samoa Joe gets a championship celebration which was of course disrupted by everyone's favorite enemies to lovers, Swerve and Hangman! Oh yeah, and this happened on Thanksgiving Eve. We all love a holiday themed wrestling show, don't we folks? Gather round, tis time for the annual lighting of the holiday fuse.

It's time to shift into gear... Full Gear that is! Dynamite forms a three hour Voltron of wrestling with Collision this week for the go home show before the big Full Gear PPV on Saturday and AEW delivers a solid week of TV. The first two entrants for the National Title Casino Gauntlet are determined, the Women's Tag Title Tournament semi-finals are set, and Hangman Page battles Katsuyori Shibata! Erika, Ella, and the returning Topanga Rainbows conglomerate and break down all the action this week, plus: I really hope you guys love tangents and segues. Because we have those. Lot's of those. International fuse lighting! It sounds illegal but trust me this boom is on the level and not subject to tariffs.

It's time for Blood and Guts! Come join us as we examine AEW's take on the beloved WarGames format. Featuring two cages, two rings and some of the most outrageous wrestling chaos you can find on television theres a reason it's become a staple of the company. This one is an absolute doozie too featuring not only the traditional men's match but the first ever women's edition! Throw in a barnburner of a falls count anywhere match between AEW Men's World Champion Hangman Adam Page and Powerhouse Will Hobbs and you have one hell of a show. You don't want to miss us running down all the puppet shenanigans, foot torture and romantic melodrama(and that's just in one of the matches!) so light that fuse and strap on in for all the fun your ears can handle!

Blood & Guts is a week away and the tension between all participants in both cage matches is ratcheting up! Both the men's and women's matches kick of best of three series to determine which teams will get the advantage going into the match, while the Women's Tag Title tournament marches on with a huge upset! We also get the announcement of yet another new title and a Casino Gauntlet match to determine the first champion and everyone is apparently mad about it! Elsewhere, Mark Briscoe and Kyle Fletcher are not done, The Young Bucks get love bombed, and Samoa Joe is extremely gotten to! All this, plus Toni Storm on commentary being her regular, delightful self. Hello? Yes, I need you to light the biggest fuse you have. No, that's too big.

Well hello there boys, ghouls, and non-BOO-nary pals! It's time for Fright Night Dynamite, which means Halloween themed action from bell to HELL! Tricks and treats are the order of the night as we kick off the Women's Tag Team HORROR-ment, number one contenders are crowned in two FEARFUL four way matches, and Takeshita learns there's nothing scarier than family! Elsewhere, HANGEDman Adam Page still has a BONE to pick with The Opps. Samoa Joe doesn't think he's got a GHOST of a chance, but you can't count out a cowboy with a flair for the dramatic. And our good boy Adam, he's got a real DEAD eye for picking his spots on All Hallow's Ween! I am out of puns! Please light the fuse and put me out of my misery!

Dynamite is back to two hours this week! And it's in Texas!

Plus, Ultimo Mone attempts yet another celebration, the full brackets for the Inaugural Women's Tag Team Championship Tournament are finally revealed, and Okada defends his Unified Championship against Bandido in a great main event. Hey, what's that? A pod(cast) of dolphins? Let me translate their beautiful sea mammal clicking, hang on... [Snorky... light... fuse... boom] Ah crap, I think gotta deal with this. Enjoy the pod!

Stand by for ACTION. This week, Dynamite becomes Dynallision (or possibly Collimite) in the go home for WrestleDream! Darby Allin and Jon Moxley renew their vows of violence one more time, Toni Storm and Kris Statlander give us all sorts of weird feelings, Skye Blue and Jamie Hayter have a low key banger, and Hangman Page gets weirdly descriptive during the main event! BUT WAIT THERE'S STILL MORE! Marvel at the commentary booth breaking down into a case of the sillies as they get bored during hour three! Swoon for Jack Perry's newest hobby! Cringe in horror as Erika talks about gross stuff no one would ever want to think about! Yes, all the stars are here! Light the fuse, but yeah this was a long one so you might be waiting around a hot minute for the boom. No more three hour shows, please!

It's AEW Homecoming and Dynamite hits Daily's Place for a special Title Tuesday show! The Samoa Joe and Hangman Page have face-to-face shouty time, The Hurt Syndicate dress for a business meeting, Ishii and Moxley have an awesome TV match, Lacey Lane answers Mercedes' open challenge, the Kyles go to war, Orange Cassidy and PAC renew their rivalry, and Darby Allin has a magical murder bag now. Holy crap does he have a murder bag. Yeesh. Really great show this week, come listen to us discuss it as well as amuse ourselves with our perfect wrestler impersonations! I would make a light the fuse joke like usual but I really don't want Darby to hear me.

AEW returns to the alleged state of Florida with a big 6th Anniversary show! We got a really solid show out of it with a huge title match, a mixed-tag main event, WrestleDream's card starting to take shape, and a big surprise return! Elsewhere, The Don Callis Family continues to grow, there's an evil Hologram now, MVP lists a bunch of phone numbers, and we get possessed again by the ghost of George C. Scott. He just will not leave us alone, we're sorry. Let's light this fuse already, pardna!
