AEW Dynamite delivered a blockbuster match with Kenny Omega vs Swerve Strickland, but did AEW just fumble a major storyline opportunity?
It's Episode 20 of Elite Heat! We celebrate the milestone before diving into a jam-packed Dynamite that left us equal parts impressed and frustrated.

In this episode of Elite Heat, we break down everything from Dynamite, including:

Why Omega vs Swerve felt like a pay-per-view match on free TV
The big mistake that could hurt Swerve’s momentum
Early thoughts on Omega vs MJF
The growing list of World Title contenders
Concerns about AEW’s women’s division booking
Darby Allin’s insane main event (and his future)
The rise of Kyle Fletcher, Ricochet, and more

The theme of the night: interesting ideas, shaky execution. With only two Dynamites left before Dynasty, it feels like AEW is rushing the wrong things and sleeping on the right ones.
