Them having a staredown while their minions were brawling was an amazing scene.

Not going to be able to watch SD until after work, but from the reactions I've seen on Twitter I fear the Sheamus/GOONTA interaction might cause bubba @KawadaSmilehave a cardiac event.

Considering the prospects of Fred Ottman in a glittery stormtrooper helmet gimmick, I'm convinced him falling down was probably the best possible outcome.

From what I've seen in the video game world, it seems like Canadians get fucked on pricing for everything even if the currency exchange rate isn't bad.

Both times I went to Dynamite tapings tickets were like $25 each. I would imagine it's a combo of the first time in Canada and scalpers/brokers.

Well there was also that time where Regal had to get Goldberg to settle the fuck down in their match on Nitro.

I always got the impression that was more self defense and Jericho didn't want to get any heat for possibly beating up the top star of the company (I'm sure he learned some shit from Stu).

Either way, I doubt they have interest now since Jericho and Hunter famously were never pals. Unless it was a pure "only grab someone to fuck with a competitor" move.

I 100% believe Eddie was being oversensitive, but I'm not sure I completely believe Sammy's a nice guy who only plays an asshole on TV. IMO it's an "everyone kind of sucks" situation.

Apparently it is the plan to have the rematch main event the PPV, presumably so Punk can get the big win in Chicago.

Tim Storm reminds me of what someone said about Kevin Nash, that he would make an excellent manager if it wasn't for the fact he would absolutely dwarf anyone in his stable. He doesn't have Big Kev's height of course, but he's got that old school 80s beefy wrestler physique and most of the folks in the NWA....well.... don't.

It's possible it was just an off night or the effects of traveling back and forth across the Pacific, but she's kind of past getting the benefit of the doubt at this point.

To be fair, he probably was but Jericho was too drunk to realize it.

now see, if it turns out she's not really hurt then I HAVE to know if she pouted and didnt tag in or did her partners just said "fuck you" and refuse to

Jamie Hayter got her nose broken in the match she had with Rosa on Rampage (which funny enough just looked like one of those "shit happens" moments when I watched it) and the story is Britt got so pissed she can't even be around Rosa. Not to mention it was weird how they did the announcement in a backstage promo and Rosa made sure to mention the PPV match would be to crown an INTERIM CHAMPION that didn't seem to be part of the plan since no other mention of it said it was for an interim title. So this seems to be the mystery behind all the "AEW TENSIONS AT AN ALL TIME HIGH" gossip: Eddie took a swing at Sammy, Punk droppin' SHOOTZ to spice up his heel turn, and everyone sick of Rosa's bullshit.

Fightful reported Sammy made some kind of comment about Eddie's physique and Eddie took a swing at him. Apparently the PPV plans were Sammy/Tay vs Eddie/Ruby but the suspension nixed that.

Fightful reported that it was Moxley who pushed for the match to be on Dynamite and Punk eventually went along with that. I suppose the question is if that was the finish Moxley came up with or was TK sending a message like @Coffey suggested? Honestly the Rosa deal seems way more like "problem child gets put in time out" to me, her issues were so out in the open DMD was on TV carrying a goddamn sandbag.

I would assume that the trios final will probably be the main event since presumably Kenny will be in it.

Well I certainly wasn't expecting THAT, but I suppose it goes with the general AEW kayfabe of "injured person isn't 100% when they first come back"

It's been well documented that athletes from Pittsburgh perform better with Broken Frickin' body parts.

*stares disapprovingly at Cleveland*

I was getting major "lost my smile" vibes.

I thought Garcia was fine, but the problem was having him facing off with Jericho who's way better at this kind of thing at this stage.

In summary, Tony addressed the communication issues, Kenny and the Bucks said their doors are open for everyone as well. He went over the new coaches and the new talent relations people. Jericho and Schiavone spoke as well, and it was mentioned that their Chief Legal Officer (Megha, I presume) sent a letter to Nick Khan and Stephanie over contract tampering allegations.

To be fair the recent WWE 2K game got a big overhaul due to the prior version being a disaster in every possible aspect. ...and yes, EA Sports has been infamous for half-assing their sports games for years which each new version not being much more than a roster update. Having exclusivity on all major sports tends to do that.
