AEW Dynamite Summer Blockbuster – 6/10/2026: 3 Things We Hated And 3 We Loved
This week marked the 131st anniversary of The Lumiere Brother's hosting the first paid showing of a film, 1895's "Workers Leaving The Lumiere Factory," in some ways the first summer blockbuster, even if the term didn't actually come about until the 1970s, and AEW celebrated with a Summer Blockbuster edition of Dynamite.

It's now time to give out some thumbs up and some thumbs down. There was plenty to like about tonight's show, especially the opening contest, and there was plenty to hate, like…well…all the bulls*** that happened before the opening contest. If you want to keep the discussion going, the comments section will be open as always.
For now, it's time to talk about what we loved, and what we very much did not, from the Summer Blockbuster edition of "AEW Dynamite."
When Chris Jericho came back to AEW in April, I figured I'd give him a shot. He had been gone for nearly a year at that point, so his booking was going to feel fresh no matter what, right? Well, he's entering just his second feud since his return, and it already feels like a new Jericho Vortex. The New Jericho Vortex of Bald, if you will, and it already feels pointless and redundant.
I'm sure it's because Jericho loves his catchphrases and attempting to get goofy things over, and now, he's trying to overtake the sickos' love of chanting "BALD!" at various heels. First, he feuded with Ricochet, which took fans through an oddly booked assortment of babyfaces for the Stadium Stampede match at Double or Nothing, and Jericho's next bald foe is none other than Tommaso Ciampa.
The pair opened up "Dynamite" tonight, and though the segment lasted about 10 minutes, it felt like it dragged on forever. I guess I thought we'd start out with one of the matches
