For a show that many compare to WWE\u2019s<em> Sunday Night Heat<\/em>, these days DARK actually runs longer than <em>Monday Night Raw<\/em>, assuming commercial breaks aren\u2019t included. A reason for this could be related to the pandemic, with AEW giving as many wrestlers as they can a payday in these hard times. Assuming the virus becomes more manageable in 2021, with fans being allowed to return to the shows in more numbers, it will be interesting to see how DARK changes its dynamic.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>13 Main Roster wrestlers appear<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>This week&#8217;s card features a number of main roster AEW stars including SCU appearing in two matches, as well as the<strong> Lucha Brothers (Penta El 0 M &amp; Fenix)<\/strong>, <strong>Matt Sydal<\/strong>, <strong>Jurassic Express<\/strong>, <strong>Nyla Rose<\/strong>, <strong>Vickie Guerrero<\/strong>, <strong>Sammy Guevara<\/strong>, and <strong>Thunder Rosa<\/strong> all in action as well.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>\u00a0<\/em><strong>Ashley Vox Debuts<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Ashley Vox makes her AEW debut against Thunder Rosa.\u00a0 Vox is mostly known for her work as a member of\u00a0<strong> The Sea Stars\u00a0<\/strong>alongside Delmi Exo.\u00a0 The two recently took part in\u00a0<strong>IMPACT Wrestling<\/strong>&#8216;s Knockouts tag team title tournament and are the current\u00a0<strong>SHIMMER\u00a0<\/strong>tag team champions.<\/p>\n<p><em>Stay tuned to\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/\" target=\"_self\">Last Word on Pro Wrestling<\/a>\u00a0for more on this and other stories from around the world of wrestling, as they develop.
