AEW Podcast: 2020, A Year in Review
**Disclaimer: This episode was recorded a few hours before Jon Huber’s passing was announced. As fans of Mr. Huber, we are all extremely saddened to hear the news and would like to express our condolences to his friends, fans and family. May he rest in peace.**
As Covid-19 continued to spread worldwide shutting down everything from non-essential businesses to public gatherings, everything from the Olympics to movie theaters was forced to close over the course of the past few months. Everything that is, except for professional wrestling.
We’ve all heard the phrase: “The show must go on,” but this year, AEW brought new meaning to the expression. During the current coronavirus outbreak, AEW did the best to provide entertainment for their fans who desperately needed an escape from the harsh reality of the pandemic sweeping the globe. And despite several limitations, the professional wrestling association has done an excellent job thus far.
All Elite Wrestling might only be in its second year of existence, but the nascent promotion continues to make waves, consistently beating WWE’s NXT show in the ratings each Wednesday night with a headlock on the 18-49 demo. The wrestling promotion has been on fire as of late with episodes of Dynamite gracing fans with some of the fastest, most furious, and entertaining wrestling matches ever broadcast on cable TV— not to mention jaw-dropping surprises, unexpected twists, and risqué turns. Ladies and gentlemen, AEW did not disappoint. In fact, they knocked it out of the park in what was a crazy year from start to finish.
