Ranking the AEW PPVS of 2019

#3 All Out

The calm before the storm.

It was the night Chris Jericho celebrated with “A Little Bit of the Bubbly”.

AEW All Out was an interesting show. The matches themselves had little build and in some cases went way too long. Some of the interesting matches on the show were another fun SCU tag opener and a crazy hardcore match. Who knew that actual Cracker Barrels could be used in such brutal ways? Darby Allin, Jimmy Havoc and Joey Janela are three truly crazy men.

Two of the three main events were disappointing. Shawn Spears versus Cody was way overbooked. Sure, it was fun to see Arn Anderson hit a Spinebuster but the match itself had way too much interference in it overall. The main event between Chris Jericho and Hangman Page was disappointing, slowly paced and went way too long. It didn’t feel as special as the first-ever World Title match should have.

Two matches really saved the show. PAC and Kenny Omega put on a hard hitting and fast paced match. It was shocking to see Kenny Omega lose clean yet again, but it did put over PAC as one of the biggest heels in the company, which was a very smart decision.

The ladder match is maybe the best AEW match of the entire year and possibly my favorite ladder match of all time. It was the perfect feud ender for the Young Bucks and the Lucha Bros. The Sunset Flip Destroyer through a table will be shown on highlight reels for years. The brutal falls by Nick Jackson were pretty amazing as well. He is lucky to not get hurt. Add in the debut of Proud & Powerful after the match gave us a special moment to begin a new chapter in the tag team division.
