The Big Takeaways:
-1 was a delight on commentary on an edition of Dark that was anchored by both solid women’s and tag team matches.
Show Recap:
It’s Tuesday, and you know what that means: time for AEW Dark. Taz, Ricky Starks and Excalibur were on commentary for the opening matches.
One previously announced match didn t end up happening: Dustin Rhodes, QT Marshall and Nick Comoroto vs. Ryan Nemeth, Vary Morales and Shawn Dean.
Miro (w/ Kip Sabian, Penelope Ford and Charles Taylor) def. Fuego del Sol (2:38)
There is an ongoing Dark storyline of del Sol trying to hit a tornado DDT on any of his opponents. It did not happen here. After a superkick and Game Over where Miro bent all the way back (his shoulders were on the mat), del Sol tapped out.

The Inner Circle members will collide tonight!
Last week, the heel faction butted heads once again and the result is now a three-way tag team match between Santana & Ortiz, Chris Jericho & MJF, and Sammy Guevara & Jake Hager. While the former Impact World Tag Team Champions (Santana & Ortiz) have the most experience as a tag team, Chris Jericho has won the tag titles multiple times with several different partners in WWE. What will happen between the Inner Circle once the dust settles?
Hey everyone! It’s Tuesday. You know what that means.

Let’s jump into this week’s episode of AEW Dark.
Brandon Cutler (7-3-2) vs. Luchasaurus (30-10) with Jungle Boy and Marko Stunt
They hyped up this showdown on BTE this week, and that’s always nice. Before the match, Luchasaurus makes it clear that there are no dragons in AEW. There is only room for dinosaurs or dragons in a wrestling promotion. Not both. Cutler hit the diving elbow multiple times, but it wasn’t enough as Luchasaurus literally chokeslammed Cutler on his head and then hit the kick to the face for the win at 5:54. That Cutler landing was rough.

1. Luchasaurus vs. Brandon Cutler. Cutler tried rolling Luchasaurus up from the get-go, but he was unsuccessful in getting the pin. Luchasaurus threw a kick that sent out Cutler to the outside. The two then fought on the outside for a brief while. Cutler flew through the ropes with a sucidia on the outside, but then hit a long distance leg drop onto Luchasaurus on the inside.
Luchasaurus began firing back with clotheslines, but Cutler hit a springboard elbow drop, failing to cover Luchasaurus in the process. Luchasaurus hit a modified chokeslam, only to get a two count. Shortly thereafter, Luchasaurus threw a deadly kick that finished Cutler off.
