AEW All Out

AEW All Out 2021

★★★★½ 19 likes

Never been a big fan of the Young Bucks because of how choreographed their matches feel but goddamn is that cage match with Lucha Bros not one of the best in-ring performances I've ever seen.

I haven't had this much fun with pro wrestling in who knows how long.
