AEW Redemption delivered a strange mix of excellent wrestling, major title changes and a show that felt much longer than it needed to be.

Tim and Dug break down Kenny Omega vs. Kevin Knight, Willow Nightingale becoming AEW’s first Women’s Triple Crown Champion, Maya World winning the TBS Championship, Andrade capturing the AEW National Championship, “Speedball” Mike Bailey winning the six-way ladder match and Kyle Fletcher’s outstanding defense against Bandido.

They also debate whether worked concussion angles belong in professional wrestling, why several matches would have been better suited for Dynamite, whether Redemption’s position before All In made its biggest outcomes too predictable and what Will Ospreay’s break from the Death Riders means for Kenny Omega, Jon Moxley and the road to Wembley.
