Wrestling Observer Radio: AEW Dynamite & NXT recaps, UFC PPV price increase

Wrestling Observer Radio with myself and Dave Meltzer is back for another edition as Bryan Alvarez is still on vacation.

There’s a lot to talk about tonight, including:

  • Dave has seen a lot of great wrestling this week including the TAKA and Taichi PPV, Gunther vs. Ricochet from WWE SmackDown, Will Ospreay vs. Tomohiro Ishii and more.
  • AEW Dynamite was mostly solid this week with a very good women’s match in the main event and a solid tag match between FTR and the Gunns.  Although, there was a segment that wasn’t very well-received featuring Keith Lee, Swerve Strickland and Rick Ross. 
  • Plus we talk NXT, Mandy Rose, the price of UFC PPVs going up again, and it’s pro wrestling Christmas sweatshirt season.

As a reminder, all episodes of Wrestling Observer Radio are available via our YouTube subscription service.
