Dynamite Highlights: Britt Baker Speaks, The Elite Implodes, More
With another AEW Dynamite in the record books, it's time for us here in the wrestling press to squeeze just one more clickbait article out of the show before moving on to writing clickbait articles about next weeks Dynamite. In a night filled with some standout moments, perhaps the most memorable was Britt Baker, a week after her blood-soaked hardcore match with Thunder Rosa, demonstrating once again her skills with a microphone.
"That's it?" said Baker. "That is the warm welcome you give me for the hell that I went through last week? You all are as dumb, delusional, and disrespectful as Thunder Rosa. Thunder, Rosa, you should be thanking me every day that you wake up. You should be thanking me because you will forever be remembered now. You got to be a part of the history that I wrote with my own blood and then you had the audacity to stand here in my company, in my division, and say that you put the women on the map. Then why is everybody talking about me? And I don't need the praise and adoration of all you legends and experts telling me that I'm worthy now. That I'm a star, now. Mick Foley, thanks for the thumbs up, except it took you 20 years to become a hardcore legend, and I did it in one night."
"And that night," Baker continued, "when I had 87 thumbtacks in my back in the blood was flowing down into my eyes, I've never been able to see more clearly, because Tony Khan, you're out here looking for every legend that ever has been when you have the biggest one right here standing under your nose, because not only did I make history that night, I put AEW on the map. And those three letters, AEW come second to the most epic three in all of professional wrestling: DMD."

Of course, wrestling isn't all about the promos. Matches also play a part, and AEW Dynamite had plenty of those this week too. Here's what they've posted on YouTube:
