As I watched the Brodie Lee celebration of life on AEW Dynamite just a few days ago before the new year rolled in, there was just so much more than just a tribute show to a talent that left us so soon. This was not just a normal memorial show, but it sent a very …

Well, they said it would be the biggest AEW Dynamite ever…they weren’t kidding. Last night featured not only the return of the legendary Sting to TNT for the first time in some 19 years after WCW folded in 2001, but saw an incredible world title match and an eyebrow raising ending that literally saw the …
