<h2 class="has-text-align-center wp-block-heading"><strong>AEW Dynamite Takeaways</strong></h2>



<h3 class="has-text-align-center wp-block-heading"><strong>1. Great Change of Things</strong></h3>

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">OH MY! Yep, that&#39;ll do it <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/AEWDynamite?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#AEWDynamite</a> <a href="https://t.co/fb2B1CklZg">pic.twitter.com/fb2B1CklZg</a></p>&mdash; All Elite Wrestling on TNT (@AEWonTNT) <a href="https://twitter.com/AEWonTNT/status/1253123663169126400?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 23, 2020</a></blockquote><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

<p>Last week&#8217;s Dynamite episode was legitimately bad and was deservingly beaten by NXT in ratings. AEW ramped things up this week, with some fantastic matches and promos throughout the show. The episode felt faster-paced and had things with great implications going into further shows.</p>



<p>This week also featured a lot of squash matches for one&#8217;s liking but that is the way AEW and NXT have become accustomed to at this point. Omega&#8217;s squash match against Angels was the perfect way to do a squash match, as it helped to put over his opponent, at the same time show off Omega&#8217;s skills.</p>



<h3 class="has-text-align-center wp-block-heading"><strong>2. Sowing the Seeds?</strong></h3>



<figure class="wp-block-embed-twitter aligncenter wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">

<p>Chris Jericho is the most narcissistic personality in the whole of wrestling business. He doesn&#8217;t take losses lightly and will go out of his way to present himself as the best in the world. However, after Guevara won the dance battle during the Bubbly Bunch segment, Jericho didn&#8217;t appreciate it very much.</p>



<p>With Guevara&#8217;s show-off persona and Jericho&#8217;s inability to take losses, it could potentially be the beginning of an Inner Circle break-up.</p>
