-Shawn Michaels will host a media call this morning to promote Sunday’s NXT Heatwave. Check out my live updates on the call beginning at 10CT/11ET.

-AEW Dynamite will be live tonight from Chicago, Illinois at Wintrust Arena. The show features the fallout from the Forbidden Door pay-per-view. Join me for my weekly live review as Dynamite airs at 7CT/8ET on TBS. My same night audio review will be available for Dot Net Members (including our Patreon patrons).

-We are looking for reports from tonight’s AEW Dynamite in Chicago. If you are attending this show or an upcoming event and want to help, send me a note at dotnetjason@gmail.com

-Last week’s AEW Dynamite received an F grade in our post show poll from 40 percent of the voters. D finished second with 17 percent of the vote. B was a close third with 16 percent. I gave the show a C+ grade.

-We did not have a live review of AEW Collision, so there was no post show poll. I gave the show a C grade.
