American Top Team vs. Inner Circle (Minneapolis Street Fight), from AEW Full Gear 2021

In the context of a long night with no breaks between bouts and having little affection for the build to this match outside of Paige VanZant taking selfies above fallen members of the Inner Circle, I had little patience for this one on first watch. On second watch, not shotgunning this whole thing in one gulp: yeah, it’s pretty fun. Nowhere near as good as the six-man tag earlier, but Sammy died for our sins, Lambert did a good job playing the role of JJ Dillon, and the angle definitively ended, so I’m calling this one a success all around.
