This week’s Rampage was a really “Enterprise as normal” form of present. Nothing actually stood out as being particularly good or unhealthy, so it was proper down the center.
Seeing as AEW is simply coming off of WrestleDream and considered one of its greatest debuts of all time with Adam Copeland, it is simple to grasp why a standard episode of Rampage may not really feel as particular as among the different latest reveals.

Grade: B-
