For the second week in a row, Kyle Fletcher had the best match I saw in all of professional wrestling. This time out, he was in his home country of Australia for AEW's first show there and, as expected, he was part of a match of the year candidate. …

Up until the very last minute, I was sure I had seen the first ever match of the week from an indie promotion since I started doing this column. I watched the House of Glory Final Warning Show that took place on January 25th earlier this week and sa…
