Performance Review – Top 25 AEW Matches of Q2 2021

AEW’s April, May, and June followed a pay-per-view that literally ended with a dud. There were good matches here and there and the Young Bucks in particular were kind of on fire, but I am thinking (hoping) the return to the road brings an uptick in quality to the in-ring festivities.
