So who do we think the Mystery NXT Attacker will turn out to be? Someone new getting a big push right out of the gate? A main roster person getting a refresh? An NXT person getting repackaged? Place your bets!

I just realized Seth's gear is a sparkly version of Jake The Snake's circa 1993

This is truly a golden era for the meatyweight division

Ken and Ryu win the women's tag titles, hopefully they go on a murder spree before one of them has their leg fall off because those belts are cursed

I mean if you have a match like Anarchy in the Arena it has to close the show, especially if you're going to do an angle like that at the end. Its pretty much been the rule in AEW that the world title match closes the show unless there's a special attraction like that on the card.

I thought the show was pretty good all in all, I was surprised at Jamie Hayter losing. I figured it was so she could win it back in Wembley, but apparently she's legit injured.

It wouldn't have been as big as it became without the WWF going national, but pro wrestling is one of those things that's always around in some form.

Maybe Sami going to Saudi wasn't so bad after all, man got to fulfill one of the major tenets of his religion.

You know, say what you will about these shows but the crowd here is pretty damn good at least.

I love that Asuka is the heir to the legacy of Kabuki and Muta.

Watching the show now, and I wonder if Becky got heat for her one pant leg riding up to show some scandalous shin.

Man, the slow burn of Jimmy Uso is like the millionth part of this whole storyline being done to perfection.

ROH was a victim of Sinclair losing its ass when they bought the regional Fox Sports networks

Another PIttsburgh legend!

Yeah announcing Chicago is them saying Punk is going to be there. My question is if Punk is going to come back as a heel. I would assume he's going to be super over in Chicago of course, but he was public enemy #1 of AEW fans after all the shit went down.

Loved seeing Lady Frost on TV, she was a staple of the indies around here.

I popped for Buddy doing Rhea's reverse cloverleaf deal, and Brody King is such a beast.

to be fair, the finish was an audible due to injury.

Tiffamania running wild!

also hey @KawadaSmile, my boys made the big time https://www.ussoccer.com/stories/2023/05/underdog-riverhounds-the-promise-of-tomorrow

It looks like Brutus is slowly turning into Paul Phoenix from Tekken.

Booker T and Vic sounding like my 80 year old grandparents bickering on commentary

I'm not doubting anything about Cornette here, but whoever does the thumbnails for his videos is absolutely not doing him any favors. He could be spitting the 100% God's honest truth and I would think he's a tryhard asshole just on those thumbnails.

I was thinking more in a kayfabe sense that the guy who got famous telling everyone to suck it and do blackface skits is now the voice of reason trying to get folks to not make poor decisions.

Its apples and oranges because media rights for sports (including WWE in this context) ballooned tremendously in the last decade or so since networks are desperate to overpay for the one thing that doesn't have declining viewership. If the exact same situation with WCW happens today, there would at least be some network willing to toss money at it. If Anthem/Fight Network bought Impact, someone would have taken the plunge with WCW.
