Take it how you will, but Bryan Alvarez mentioned that he heard the last 40 minutes of SNME were changed because there was a segment that had to be scrapped. The implication was that the plan was for Goldberg to win the title and for Seth to do the cash in. While that makes this suck even more for Seth if that was the case, it's also impressive that Gunther was told at the last second he's going to have extra time added to his match with BILL GOLDBERG and was able to go out there and make it work. Also to be fair, kudos to Goldberg for being okay with going out with a straight loss. He probably could have that-doesn't-work-for-me-brother'd the idea, but he was okay with taking one for the team.

Mox's best match anywhere that I've seen IMO. Him panicking over his impending death after eight months of him leaving bodies in his wake was the perfect capper to this storyline.

By the way, I assume everyone has seen the Players Tribune short film on the Briscoe family but if for some reason you haven't you need to watch it immediately. Easily one of the best wrestling related things I've ever seen. It's sometimes hard to separate Mark from his more goofy TV persona, but the way he stepped up for his family is remarkable. Him talking about the day Jay died and there's a moment where he just stops mid sentence and it's clear he's reliving it in his mind was heartbreaking. It should also not be overlooked how badass Jay's girls are for how they've recovered from their (serious) injuries. The older girl even seemed to be channeling Jay when she was talking about being told she would have a difficult road to recovery and her response was basically "fuck that, I'm not letting my dad down".

So Adam Cole got hurt taking a lariat in the six man on Collision, and it sounds like it might legit be a career ender but like he said in his promo he isn't in the right head space to make that decision at the moment.

Starting SNME now that All In is over, and I'll say one thing Jelly Roll has lost a ton of weight but he looks like he's in the trap of "still wearing fat guy sized clothes even though you are significantly smaller now" that often comes with that kind of weight loss. Source: I did the same thing when I dropped 80 lbs.

That match was everything it needed to be times a hundred. The Death Riders vanquished, Hangman is redeemed, Danielson avenging the end of his career....everything was perfection.

Women's gauntlet was a million times better, and the absolute correct winner.

Juice came back looking like nWo Sting.

Stacking the odds against Hangman by taking out some of his backup, making it much more glorious when he beats the odds.

The way that crowd JUMPED when Joe hooked in the muscle buster.

Cash dropping f bombs on that fan, what was going on there?

lol holy shit the Outrunners with the Newport themed gear

Ishii and Archer having an excellent clubbering exchange right after a luchador spot is peak AEW.

The WAR random six man generator is in awe of this grouping of Hologram, Ishii, Kyle O'Reily, and Big Boom AJ.

I could be off base, but to me it looked like maybe Dustin wasn't going full speed in a preshow match knowing he had a bigger match later in the show

Them Rhodes genes are strong, three generations looking identical.

Von Erichs in a Texas stadium show in 2025, time really is a flat circle brothers.
-
A Madison Rayne appearance on the pre show, always good to see.
-
Yeah short of some kind of disaster like an injury happening, Mercedes and Toni are too good to have a bad match.
-
There are certainly a lot, but my main issue is when they do a multi person match and one of the folks are clearly in there to eat the pin. It just telegraphs the whole thing and you're just counting down the time until they do the job.

Yes, Vince always had a thing about the announcers looking too old. Its why he never wanted to go back to doing commentary other than that one-off he did with Jesse . He never seemed to care that the younger folks who he put in their place were a detriment to the business because they had little to no knowledge of wrestling. Going to the WWF pretty much ended Terry Taylor's in ring career but it got him a behind the scenes job that continues to this day so it ended up working out for him eventually.

Wasn't expecting a Keji Muto appearance in a video on NXT, that was neat.

Since ROH is basically their NXT, they should tape it like NXT as well. Have them do their weekly show at like Daily's Place or some other smaller venue they can make their home base and have their big PLE type shows in the cities AEW is having theirs in. Have it look like a modern version of 2000s ROH, which shouldn't be difficult since Danielson probably wouldn't be able to resist showing up occasionally. It would give ROH its own look and feel and not just "we're at the same venue Dynamite was in but it looks sadder".
