I loved the way that All Elite Wrestling chose to present the debut of Matt Hardy this week because it was absolutely fantastic. Vanguard 1, his trusty aide and camera drone flew over The Inner Circle and had it happened in front of a live crowd, the audience would have popped in a really big way, I'm sure. I genuinely thought that this was, by far, the biggest missed opportunity from this week's show.

Hornswoggle and Brodie Lee would have received similar reactions had they debuted in front of a live crowd, but what can one do when we look at the world that's around us, right? I have to commend AEW for putting on a show for the ages even when it seemed like that was absolutely out of the question at times. And yet, I can't help but think that these debuts would have worked so much better before a crowd that was present live.
Oh well, AEW had their backs to the wall and yet they delivered.
