‘All Elite Wrestling: Dark’ Review (April 7th 2020)

Welcome to this week’s All Elite Wrestling: Dark review, right here on Nerdly. I’m Nathan Favel and we have a few minutes of wrestling on a half-hour show, but we’ll use COVID-19 as an excuse for why we only have short matches on a half-hour show. Okay, let’s go see what I’m talking about.

Match #1: QT Marshall defeated Lee Johnson

My Opinion: 2.6 out of 5 – This was alright. It’d be nice if this coulda gotten a few more minutes, but I say that too often and Lee looked fine. QT was a good pillar for Lee to lean on here and it’s nice to see a solid mid-carder like QT in such a position. I ain’t sayin’ that this is a barn-burner, but for a meager match this wasn’t all that bad.

Match #2: Wardlow defeated Ryan Pyles

My Opinion: 1.7 out of 5 – My scores for squashes are random and this was a 1.7.

Match #3: (Main Event) Kip Sabian defeated Tony Donati

My Opinion: 2.8 out of 5 – Kip did a nice job with the match and made the Italian not look like a meat-ball.

Final Verdict: 2.5/5

This was okay. Why not just have one twenty minute match that is worth talking about, instead of this lame show of three matches no one is ever gonna wanna watch twenty years from now?
