It's Monday, you know what that means. YouTube hosted AEW Dark Elevation in front of a crowd of almost 20,000 in New York, filmed before AEW Dynamite Grand Slam last Wednesday. We have a change in commentary this week as Mark Henry joins Tony Schiavone and Eddie Kingston as Paul Wight has a match tonight.Ā Let'sĀ get straight to the action.Ā
We get things started with Thunder Rosa getting a huge crowd ovation as she makes her entrance as the number one contender in theĀ women'sĀ division. She makes light work of Kayla Sparks here to continue her endless march towards Dr Britt Baker, picking up the pinfall after the Fire Thunder Driver.Ā Ā

The Dark Order members who actually get along get a run out here against 3 newbies and Dean Alexander who we have seen before quite a few times. The men from The Keep are mostly dominant as is to be expected and they put away their opponents when aĀ 4-manĀ combination which is finished by 10 with the Full Nelson submission. This was a lot of fun for a Monday onĀ YouTube.

Paul Wight gets what must have been his biggest pop in ages! He looks very happy. Gunn Club come out as soon as the match comes out but they just stand atop the ramp and watch Paul Wight have some fun as he chops his way through VSK and CPA. RSP gets a KO Punch and VSK & CPA get a double chokeslam.Ā
š SOUND ON!
