Tommy Dreamer Says These AEW Heels Have ‘Nuclear Heat’

Although Tommy Dreamer has his issues with the present state of AEW programming, the “Busted Open After Dark” host appears to be having fun with most of what the promotion has to supply right away. On a recent episode of the podcast, Dreamer complimented the lineup of villains and highlighted a number of of his favorites.

“If you happen to take a look at great heels, AEW has Christian Cage — nuclear heat,” Dreamer said. “MJF — a number of heat, and at times nuclear heat. Don Callis — thermo-nuclear heat, simply because most individuals know that it’s all real with Donald.”

Dreamer was within the midst of discussing MJF’s direction on last week’s “AEW Dynamite,” highlighting his distraught mindset following his loss to “Hangman” Adam Page at AEW Revolution. The “Busted Open” host was an especially big fan of the in-ring segment that saw MVP offer his business card to MJF, potentially opening the door for a partnership between the previous AEW World Champion and the Hurt Syndicate.

While Dreamer stated that he’s an enormous fan of Bobby Lashley and Shelton Benjamin, he doesn’t yet categorize them as being “over” as heels in the identical way as the opposite performers mentioned. With a purpose to fully win the audience over, Dreamer believes the present AEW World Tag Team champions need a solid storyline against a powerful babyface team. He doesn’t know who that may be, but Dreamer hopes the storyline goes in that direction relatively than having MJF pull the duo away from MVP’s influence.

The aforementioned segment on last week’s “Dynamite” had MJF unsure of whether to just accept MVP’s card, however the wrestler wound up taking it. It seems MVP made a convincing argument by reminding MJF in regards to the lack of gold around his waist, and there will certainly be some follow-up on tonight’s “Dynamite.”
