Ranking AEW's pay-per-views in 2020

#2 AEW Revolution

Was this the best match of the year? Is it the best match in AEW history?

It is weird to think an AEW pay-per-view in 2020 actually had a big, loud crowd in Chicago. It seems like a lifetime ago.

AEW Revolution, certainly benefiting from a crowd, was an excellent show. It started with a fun opener between Dustin Rhodes and Jake Hager that had many appearances from the latter's wife.

It was weird, and was then followed by a brief match between Sammy Guevara vs. Darby Allin that had an incredible table spot. AEW Revolution was off to a good start.

The next match was the AEW World Tag Team Championship match between Kenny Omega and Hangman Page and the Young Bucks. It is arguably the best match of the year in AEW and a strong candidate for the best AEW match ever.

It was an incredible 30 minutes of storytelling with so many impressive near-falls and non-stop action in the second half. This match is also proof of how much we miss crowds. They were invested in the entire incredible tag match.

The show naturally had a slight letdown after the tag match. Nyla Rose vs. Kris Statlander was sadly filled with a lot of mistakes. MJF and Cody had a pretty emotional match that surprisingly had Cody losing yet again.

The semi-main event was Orange Cassidy actually trying in a losing effort against Pac. It was the first time fans saw Cassidy really try, and you could tell the crowd was really behind the laziest man in wrestling. It was the start of great things for him in 2020.

The main event was a perfect payoff to the Jon Moxley versus Chris Jericho feud. It was a great moment when Jon Moxley showed he was faking his eye injury. Moxley won the AEW World Championship with a great crowd reaction to celebrate the moment.

AEW Revolution was a great show and makes us long for a huge AEW crowd yet again.
