Week after week, AEW proves that it’s the destination for a new brand of professional wrestling. Sometimes we feel that after so many years of programming, it’s impossible to create new and interesting ideas in this art form. This week, AEW Dynamite ran with a simple idea of a debate competition and created one of the best segments of 2020.

To give you the context, AEW had announced a special Wednesday Night Debate between Chris Jericho and Orange Cassidy. It seems like the company has taken a leaf from the election season by incorporating it in the MJF storyline as well.

Anyways, all debates require a fair moderator. This debate got one of the best in the business. As Jim Ross rightly proclaimed, Eric Bischoff made a return to TNT television after 20 long years.

Bischoff declared that both Superstars will be subject to five questions. As he began his list, Jericho used each question to berate Cassidy and his attitude. In fact, he called him an example of everything that is wrong with professional wrestling.

Characteristically, Cassidy maintained silence. However, in one of the most hilarious plot ywists you’ll see, Bischoff asked a question on global warming and the rising sea levels.

While Jericho called it out, Cassidy had a fair bit to say. If you weren’t already a big fan, Cassidy gives you another reason by showing that he cares about the planet.

After all the fun was over, Bischoff addressed the elephant in the room. Why is the match next week so important? As Jericho was beginning another rant, Cassidy stopped him in his tracks.

The promo that followed proved why Orange Cassidy is about to become the next big thing.

Twitter appreciates the AEW debate segment

Twitter was very happy with AEW and the two performers. There was a lot of joy because of Bischoff returning.
