Another week, another episode of Aew: Dark which this week features a moderate six matches (and isn’t a bunch of repeats unlike this week’s Elevation – hence no review of it). Let’s see what went down…
Match #1: Harley Cameron def. Mafiosa
My Thoughts: Qtv’s “Harley Cameron” gets her first singles match on Dark and it was a pretty solid debut. Nothing to set the world alight but both women gave as good as they got and in the end it was everything a Dark debut could be against enhancement talent that are, unfortunately, never booked as aggressively as signed talent.
My Score: 2.5 out of 5 Match #2: Blake Christian def. Lee Johnson
My Thoughts: Honestly I was surprised to see Lee Johnson lose this one – even if it does feel like its been an eternity since he’s been on Aew programming. That’s not really the...

Another week, another episode of Aew: Dark which this week features seven matches. Let’s see what went down…
Match #1: Juice Robinson def. Pat Buck
My Thoughts: Pat Buck, back in the ring? Yes, the man who’s spent most of the recent years behind the scenes in both Aew and previously WWE, gets in front of the camera for a match against Bullet Club Gold’s Juice Robinson and big things were, honestly, expected. Yet whilst it was a solid match it didn’t set the world on fire. Great opener for Dark though!
My Score: 3 out of 5 Match #2: The Renegades def. Kiah Dream & Brittany J
My Thoughts: What a surprise, the Renegades face enhancement talent and get a quick, decisive, squash match win. But when they’re the enhancement talent? The same happens to them! I get a steady job is good in the wider “indie...

Welcome back to another review of Aew Dark: Elevation, which features only Four(!) matches this week and a show that only runs twenty-two(!) minutes. Once again we’ve got Elevation regulars Paul Wight and Matt Menard on commentary. So let’s get into the review!
Match #1: Maki Itoh def. Ashley D’Amboise
My Thoughts: Always good to see Ashley D’Amboise in an Aew ring and on top of that we get the legend that is Maki Itoh in this match too! If I’m honest this one felt a little “off” – which can often occur when styles clash or aren’t as compatible as they could be.
My Score: 2.5 out of 5 Match #2: Jericho Appreciation Society def. Mike Magnum, Jack Tomlinson, and Zack Clayton
My Thoughts: I’ve got to be honest, the Jas is getting really old now. And no disrespect to the trio involved in this match...
