Welcome back to another review of Aew Dark: Elevation, this week features more main roster names than usual and another 9-match card! We’ve got Tony Schiavone, Paul Wight, and Matt Menard on commentary, so let’s get into the review.
Match #1: Nick Comoroto def. Hagane Shinno
My Thoughts: Interesting to see Comoroto booked as a monster once again, with Shinno booked as the plucky underdog who could not get the big man down. That’s not to say Shinno didn’t put in the effort but it was like watching a fly trying to beatdown a bulldog! Comoroto spent a bit too much time playing to the crowd but still, this was an Ok start to the show.
My Score: 1.5 out of 5 Match #2: Nyla Rose and Marina Shafir def. Kitty Lafleur and Alice Crowley
My Thoughts: Can you say squash match?! This was the usual Nyla/Shafir...

Another week, another episode of Aew: Dark which is a Short five-match card… and let’s just say I’m loving the shorter shows. So let’s get right to it!
Match #1: Penelope Ford def. Alice Crowley
My Thoughts: Nice to see Penelope Ford in action once again and, as commentary pointed out, she looked rather more aggressive in this one than usual. This was pretty much a squash match for Ford, hopefully to build her numbers and get her back into the main event picture.
My Score: 1 out of 5 Match #2: Darius Martin & Matt Sydal def. Cezar Bononi & Ryan Nemeth
My Thoughts: Another good outing for the team of Darius Martin & Matt Sydal, though I appreciated that this one went a Lot longer than their Elevation match this week! Cezar Bononi & Ryan Nemeth are the wrong kind of opponents for Martin and Sydal though…
My Score: 3 out of...
