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.
