VIDEO: Being the Elite – ‘Helicopter’

Video —

This week’s BTE featured The Elite in Broomfield, Colorado for Dynamite. 

Nick Jackson spoke about how he wasn’t originally scheduled to wrestle on last Wednesday’s show. He ended up having to find gear on short notice for his four-way match. Nick earned a future title shot against International Champion, Rey Fenix, with his win. 

The Dark Order also visited the Elite in their locker room and continued to blackmail Matt Jackson. They are threatening to tell the other Elite members about the deal they made for the Hung Bucks IP. However, things took a turn when Matt pulled John Silver’s pants down exposing his genitals. Silver then did the helicopter move references in The Dark Side of the Ring episode on the Plane Ride From Hell. 

Colt Cabana and Brandon Cutler also spent some time bonding as a tag team. 

Ryan Nemeth was also back at the writers’ strike this week. This was filmed before the deal to end the strike was announced. He asked several picketing writers and actors who their favorite wrestler is and many of them answered that it’s him. 

The show closed with The Young Bucks teasing they have a surprise in store for Wednesday’s Dynamite, one that likely relates to AEW’s newest signing, Adam Copeland.
