Tonight, it’s the AEW Bash At The Beach special! A lot of big stuff on tap tonight, including PAC – a perpetual member of the Top Five – going up against the always exciting Darby Allin! The show itself is a tribute to a beloved WCW PPV. And it’s not just one show – the series of events begins with tonight’s episode of Dynamite! And it will also run through next week’s show, which will emanate live from the Jericho Cruise! I’m Jordan Huie of the Overtimer, here to give you the preview of what’s to come here this fine Wednesday evening! As always there’s a lot to talk about so let’s get to it!
PAC vs. Darby Allin
Another in the long line of big time bouts for Darby. He’s not a guy that seems to want to pad his record against lesser members of the roster, almost always seen swinging outside his weight class so to speak. He’s coming off another close loss, this one to his most major rival Cody. I really did kinda feel like he might pull it off that go-round, but hey… it’ll happen. One day he’ll get that big win against a big name. But this will be a rough week to try and get that!
PAC is embroiled in a feud with Kenny Omega, fervently demanding a rubber match with the Best Bout Machine. For whatever reason, the booking committee seems quite reluctant to make that match happen – though it’d certainly be a cool thing to put on that Rock ‘N Wrestling Rager next week! That being said, he’s likely to continue gaining momentum until then. So I think the easy pick is to say that PAC goes over. With his speed and strength and Darby’s willingness to take big bumps, he could be make to look like a real killer tonight.
