The Best Show of 2021: AEW ALL OUT

 

   Every AEW show is wildly entertaining, but All Out this year happened to be the one with two monumental surprise debuts to close the show. As if Adam Cole making his debut after the Kenny Omega vs. Christian match wasn't big enough, the debut of Bryan Danielson happened right after that. I'm not sure I can ever remember a wrestling PPV having such a monumental ending. It felt like the wrestling world had shifted when All Out went off the air, and can you think of another wrestling show ever doing that? And besides the huge debuts to close the show, All Out also had the 2nd best wrestling match of the year, an epic, crazy, bloody, super entertaining cage match where The Lucha Brothers beat The Young Bucks for the tag titles. The other big deal about this PPV was that it featured CM Punk's first match in 7 years, a fairly entertaining bout against Darby Allin. The Omega/Christian main event match was also pretty damn good, and the loud, rowdy, Chicago crowd helped every match seem better & more entertaining than they probably were. This was definitely a show for the ages.
