Their second TV show seems like it's imminent, they'll have more room soon. I kinda hope it is Brock just to hear the WWE stans suddenly start saying Brock's no big deal.

I mean if AEW hypes this up as much as they are and it ends up being someone like Christian (no offense to him), it's going to burn a lot of the goodwill they have with their fans. The biggest thing they have going for them is they don't bullshit the fans when it comes to delivering what they promised.

I've seen people speculating it could be Cena since he has a show on TBS now, which would both be ridiculous and the biggest eye poke they could give WWE.

The intriguing part of all this is while WWE has trained us all not to expect much from BIG ANNOUNCEMENTS, Tony's been pretty strong on not hyping up something that doesn't deserve it. When not only the TV show but he himself personally is pushing this as a big deal, it makes me think they really do have a OMG WTF moment up their sleeves.

My hope is whenever they finally get the second TV show up and running they cut back on relying on BTE to build angles. It's nice to have a wink and nod to the folks who do watch, but you can't expect your entire audience to be aware of everything that happens there.

Well promoters had to get creative when booking Brody, since it seems he was a pain in everyone's ass besides Baba.

So an artist posted a picture of a little black kid with a toy WWE belt looking at a mural of Rock,, Lashley. and Kofi with the description of "anything is possible" only to have some rando barging in to whitesplain that WELL ACTUALLY this is furthering racism and not helping because *insert usual "representation is the Real Racism" reasons*. MVP replied (way nicer than I would have) be all "nah its cool, representation matters, and it's cool when your heroes look like you", even the Rock replied in support, and the whitesplaining goober's reply was "don't be a jabroni, Rock". Real banner day for humanity on the ol' twitter dot com.

The way I'm reading it, it seems like whoever is in the ladder match is going to be someone to pop the hardcores and Tony's really pushing the Big Surprise as a legit big get for them.

If the plan is to give Drew his big Mania win in front of a crowd instead to at the PC, I have a bad feeling he's going to get Roman Reigns'd by said crowd since everyone is so happy that Lashley finally won the title.

Chris Hero would make a good surprise entry for the ladder match.

WWE's idea of a big angle to counterprogram against a stacked AEW show being to have Adam Pearce do his best Earl Hebner impression in the women's tag match is just *chef's kiss*

As I mentioned in the AEW thread, Robert Gibson confirmed on his Facebook page that Jim Crockett passed away from organ failure today at age 76. Only need to look at tonight's Dynamite to see the effect of his legacy still going on strong today.

Bittersweet to see that Jim Crockett Jr passed away on a day where there was an entire segment on AEW tonight that was influenced by his company.

Matt must have been inspired by Tully's performance to do the 1 Quit match "thunk a guy with a live mic" spots,

They are, but I popped for -1 trying to fight them

I figured they wouldn't be flying in the Japan bracket winner just to do one match, so that should be an interesting match at the PPV

No More BS, gotta love it

GIVE TULLY ALL THE BELTS

SLING SHOT SUPLEX

The only thing that would have made this better is if it was closing the show so Tony could hit us with a WE"RE OUTTA TIME

They used JJ's shoe as a weapon, this is officially the best Dynamite episode ever.

JJ!

lol at Conrad making an appearance on Dynamite

Yeah I was in the "as good as it could have been" camp. It was never going to be a five star classic, but it was better than I expected considering it was Cody + three people with little to no experience.

I'm just here for the return of the GOAT Tully Blanchard,
