I'll admit, Josh Alexander doing the Rolling German Suplexes Chris Benoit spot - with a twist - was pretty cool. Two rolling Germans then Eddie Edwards gets to the ropes. So then Alexander - while never breaking hold of the waist - takes him to the ring apron & hits a third... then STILL HOLDS ON as they fall to the floor. Hits a fourth on the floor. Then a fifth on the ramp to the ring. Crazy spot. Super cool. EDIT: Here's a clip from Twitter posted by Alexander himself:

Oh, one more thing: I hated Michael Cole, for a long, long time. I couldn't understand why he was employed by WWE for so long & I rolled my eyes when others would say that he's a good commentator. He's been great lately. I don't know how much of it is Vince McMahon leaving, or how much of it was him having fun again when he was with McAfee. But Cole has been on his game lately.

Let's hope he doesn't say he wants to rape her like he said about Sasha...

Somewhere, Dusty Rhodes is saying "we're making movies, baby!"

I didn't love the fake out with the tap out in the Gunther/Sheamus match but the shillelagh finish on the clothesline, the sound it made, was awesome!

It's so frustrating to have favorites on the roster & watch them struggle to even make the shows when people you think suck get featured damn near every week. Gotta make room for people like Jay Lethal & Sammy Guevara... And yes, Sammy fucking sucks. Even before all this backstage nonsense.

You’re a lot more optimistic than me. I hope you’re right & you enjoy the show but I’ll be skipping this week. None of that, on paper, appeals to me. I’m just thankful that AEW continues to put out a show card before hand. AEW no longer gets a free pass from me for previous goodwill. They have squandered that. I can’t give them the benefit of the doubt anymore & I won’t keep making excuses to myself to try to justify tuning in when I know I could do something else with my time. Just like last week when I shut it off early. I missed nothing.

Everything on this card looks super boring to me. More Yuta. More Garcia. Brian Cage again for... reasons. Another piss break 9 o'clock women's match that means nothing. More Jay Lethal. More Luchasaurus/Christian bullshit. What the fuck?

This really puts it into perspective.

I just find it hilarious that Sammy Guevara of all people is calling anyone a jobber. LMFAO.

Watching Smackdown on Hulu & man, Natalya has put on a lot of weight since the last time I saw her.

Yeah, what the fuck? Why are people suggesting AEW does shit that we already lambast WWE for? MORE TV time? A fucking brand split? What the hell? It's bad enough they turned the stupid giant poker chip into a Money in the Bank briefcase. At this point, AEW is looking really bad, they don't need to make themselves look more like a generic WWE rip off. What's next, a 24/7 hardcore title? Focus on your homegrown stars. Stop trying to force ROH onto Dynamite. Stop using people just because they came from WWE. Push people that have charisma. Don't do cold matches just because you have to "kill" TV time. Build up characters & angles & pay them off on PPV. This isn't hard.

Paige/Saraya's segment was miserably bad but she's making shit worse with her social media posting.

Add to this not putting the tag titles on the Acclaimed at the PPV & the never-ending Christian/Jungle Boy/Luchasaurus bullshit. How many times can Christian come out to promo only for Jungle Boy to get attacked from behind?

Well, I don’t need to watch another twenty minute Jericho match in 2022 so I’m going back to Alone on Hulu. Congratulations to Aaron Judge of the New York Yankees hitting his 61st home run though!

This has definitely not been a good show. I don’t know if it’s because of the hurricane but this has been about as exciting as watching late era Sunday Night Heat.

Already over Saraya in AEW.

So Paige still can’t wrestle then? Got it.

Matches that happen for no reason with no stakes are fucking worthless and a goddamn waste of TV time. This shit suckkkkkkkks.

Sorry to hear this, man. That's a long ass time at one place to get just let go like that.

1. Bray Wyatt doesn't need the title to work as a character. 2. You don't have to have great matches to be over or main event. I feel like Cody will win the Rumble, then beat Roman for the title at Wrestlemania. Then feud with Bray Wyatt. While Roman & The Bloodline move on to maybe Sami & Kevin Owens? I don't think The Rock is coming & even if he did he's 50 years old & they can't (or shouldn't) exactly put the title on him. They should also continue pushing Gunther pretty hard & move Bron to the main roster & start pushing him. The future looks pretty bright, honestly.

He never even makes the shows, how does he make the video game over people that do? It doesn't make sense.

Tony Khan tweeting for Bix to unblock Rovert on Twitter is the most fucking surreal thing I've ever seen.

He made it into the freaking video game which is lunacy.

I mean, good on them for not pretending the fireball connected, I guess. Doing the ad-lib of the nut shot was a good cover.
