That match should be a ton of fun.

It looks like this is the lineup for Dynamite in Las Vegas on Wednesday:
FTR vs. Roppongi Vice for the ROH World Tag Team titles
Owen Hart Tournament men’s semifinal: Samoa Joe vs. Kyle O’Reilly
Owen Hart Tournament women’s semifinal: Britt Baker vs. Toni Storm
Wardlow vs. Shawn Spears cage match with MJF as referee
Jungle Boy vs. Swerve Strickland vs. Ricky Starks
Bell time on Wednesday is 4 PM which has me a little worried. I usually can leave work with permission at 1:30 but Wednesday is the last day of Final Exams and I can't leave campus until my grades are completed and my AP class is the class taking the last exam that day which means I have even more to grade. I wonder if the first matches at 4PM are AEW Dark matches and Dynamite itself starts at 5 PM?

Curious how the Wardlow/Spears match will play out. Looks like a good show overall. From what I've read about AEW shows, Dark is the first hour, yes.

I been to one dynamite show so far … yes they tape a lot of stuf. I think we got dark, a bonus match that may have been on elevation, dynamite, rampage and another bonus match that I don’t think aired and Brodie Lee special.

OK, yeah I heard they sometimes tape Dynamite and Rampage together. This week they are doing separate days for Dynamite and Rampage. I think most of this week's Dark matches are happening at Rampage on Friday since the show is scheduled to start at 3:30 and end at 6:30. But here in Las Vegas, Dynamite starts at 5 every Wednesday so I think that hour from 4PM-5PM must also be some Dark tapings too.

I just got home from attending Dynamite tonight. The doors at Mandalay Bay opened at 3 PM which normally would not be an issue for me as I can usually get off work at 1:30 PM if necessary. But today was the last day of semester final exams which meant I could not leave work until my grades were finalized and thus I did not make it to Mandalay Bay until a little after 4. But thankfully I did not miss anything as the first Dark matches did not begin until right after I arrived.
This was my first time attending Dynamite as the only other AEW show I have attended was the only other AEW show in Las Vegas which was the first-ever AEW show Double or Nothing in 2019. Before the show, Tony Khan appeared talking about how great it was to be back in Las Vegas and he pointed out the first-ever AEW show Double or Nothing 2019 happened here exactly 3 years ago to this day back on May 25, 2019.
The show was really good, it is nice that Dynamite is only 2 hours compared to a typical 3-hour episode of RAW. I think my favorite match was the main event of Samoa Joe vs Kyle O'Reilly.
During the show, I bought a CM Punk shirt as Punk and Jon Moxley are probably my two favorite current wrestlers. Punk during the show said the most important moment of his career happened here in Las Vegas and he was referring to the infamous pipe bomb incident on RAW in 2011 which I attended. I am going to wear my new CM Punk shirt to Double or Nothing on Sunday and also in Chicago at Galacticon.
Afterward, Tony Khan appeared and said he plans to keep Double or Nothing in Las Vegas "forever" and then he started chanting "forever,! forever!, forever!" If so, that works for me as AEW weekend is coinciding perfectly with the ending of my school year.
Tonight was Show #24 for 2022 for me. Shows #25 (FSW) and #26 (VxS) will be tomorrow as AEW's Double or Nothing Weekend in Las Vegas continues.
