Meet the new Dark, same as the old Dark, but with Paul Wight on commentary. It’s Monday and you know what that means: it s time for the premiere of AEW Dark: Elevation.
Your hosts are Schiavone and Wight. If Wight doesn’t promise us a “really big show,” I’m going to be disappointed. (Narrator: He didn’t.)
Jungle Boy defeated Danny Limelight (8:32)
Limelight looked very impressive here. He went for a springboard senton, but JB got his knees up. JB followed that up with a spinning backbreaker and a stiff lariat. Limelight came back with a single leg crab and pulled JB to the center of the ring, but he escaped and wound up on the apron, exchanging kicks with Limelight. Limelight did a very interesting 619 variant, using the ring post as a fulcrum and swinging around to headscissor JB off the apron and to the floor.

Bailin’s Breakdown:Hello and welcome to my debut article here (or anywhere) for the debut of the brand new AEW Dark: Elevation show. I have been a fan of wrestling for over 40 years, but I have never done a show review until now. My hope is that I can deliver the type of material that you as readers are used to but by also adding a bit of my spin to it. So without further ado let’s get started.

On a recent episode of
The Wrestling Inc. Daily, New York indie wrestling star “Red Death” Daniel Garcia came to discuss his upcoming match against WWE-bound Christian Casanova for the Limitless Wrestling Championship on March 19th. Hausman asked Garcia about his history with Limitless Wrestling.
“I believe I had my first match for them maybe back in 2018. Kevin Blackwood, my training partner, he was booked on one of the shows, and I would go and ride with him before I was booked on the shows,” Garcia recalled. “I would just go and tag along, try to show face. That’s how it is in indie wrestling, and thankfully, I showed enough face. And Randy Carver, the promoter, he gave me an opportunity.
