    I can't rate this quite as highly as Survivor Series, but I was blown away by how good it was. Sid's mobility, presence and selling stood out here and while you can probably give Hart all the credit in the world for the skeleton of the match, Sid was not a broomstick. Good stuff!

    Also, how long has main roster Gunther been German? Is that new or have I not been paying attention?
  3. WingedEagle
    That was a hell of an angle for Bronson. Hopefully it leads to a more than a TV loss. Thiccer E? Definitely played out better than I would've thought but not holding my breath on anything.

    Whether the conflict is with a coworker or a child who got in the way of a drink he was looking to spill, MJF can seemingly matrix his way out of any internal heat. Pretty impressive.

    Who would've ever guessed that Andrade is the Carmelo Hayes whisperer?
  6. WingedEagle
    I'll withhold judgment until actually seeing it, but the result of today's Stardom main event and accompanying angle reek of Evil/House of Torture nonsense.

    He doesn't have main events for national promotions with the accompanying stakes, drama and promotional machines behind him. But he does have nearly 20 years of absolutely crushing it in big and small match settings up and down the card in a variety of roles and styles. Why isn't he among the top few dozen to ever do it?

    Any chance they've hired Nick as a driver for this week?
  9. WingedEagle
    Mami, respectfully. Is that how its done?

    Fatu is very much that guy. But it feels like Roman/Solo is being slow cooked for Mania so Jacob is going to have a while for his turn.

    I loved this and thought the mat work and way they attacked and fought for holds was incredible stuff that would look next level today. It feels state of the art for the style but I just can't think of it as an all time classic pro wrestling match as while it was an incredibly compelling display of technique, the lack of escalation and drama along the way holds it back. ****1/4

    Why does it feel like Moxley is no longer a featured act in AEW?

    Bryan Danielson is the absolute GOAT. Its an arms race with him vs. Ospreay for Most Outstanding this year and I look forward to them continuing to try and top each other. That was an unbelievable match and Page is on the short list of Dragon's best ever opponents.

    This has been a really good show. Both MITB matches hit, and most importantly, didn't overstay their welcome. Sami/Bron had a shockingly clean finish in a most unexpected direction, and Drew/Priest extended the company's hottest program without undermining the Summerslam world title match. Good stuff all around! I'd love to know how they smuggled Fatu into Canada given his prior issues. Plus, Cena's promo hit me way too hard. Not cool.

    Cosign.

    That was one hell of a show. Willow/Stat didn't click for me the way it seemingly did for others but was hardly good for others. Danielson/Pac and Ospreay/Garcia were tremendous and I enjoyed the closing angle and Britt/Sasha as well. I would've bet on Page/Jarrett going 1-2 minutes and needing to be a being a total MDK situation but was happy to be wrong. That was a great match and they established Page's new heel character without working a squash. Tremendous tv.

    While not as strong as Survivor Series, I thought this was a really strong match. Shawn is very clearly the Sid whisperer. Solid shine, nice bumps to set up extended heat, a great, extended hope spot that's cut off with a nasty powerbomb on the floor. The finish calling back to Survivor Series was also really well done. Big fan of this series. ***3/4

    Everybody loved The Acclaimed. Once. Onto the Bowens singles run.
  19. WingedEagle
    MJF/Hechicero was fine but a far, far cry from the Sabre match last weekend.
  20. WingedEagle
    I think he's actually opened quite a few PPVs. Wardlow, the Cole tag title match at All In, Darby. Perhaps another 1 or 2.
  21. WingedEagle
    That's what's currently holding me back from ordering tonight. Do I really want to go to sleep that late on a Sunday night?
  22. WingedEagle
    On the other hand, if he owns the proper IP is he really out of line defending his assets? Jordynne Grace can CTC if its that important to her to stay in his lane.
  23. WingedEagle
    Absolutely loved. Likely my minis MOTD and one of the best lucha outings overall as well. This was the type of active, engaging mat work I can get behind.
  24. WingedEagle
    It took all of one night for Jacob Fatu to eclipse Solo as the proper lead on that side of the ledger. I don't think it happens given his age and history, but that guy is pure fire. Fingers crossed they don't slow roll Roman's return until Mania.
  25. WingedEagle
    So how do folks see the Owen playing out? Page returning as the wild card to destroy Owen's friend Jarrett en route to a strong heel run through Danielson and a third match with Strickland certainly seems plausible. Short of that it feels like Danielson has to win. But if he does is really challenging Swerve? Dragon/Ospreay for the title would certainly work but would've been better if Dragon won the first match followed by the title and then Ospreay won the Owen. They've got options here but I'm curious how it plays out as I don't think there's any chance Ospreay wins the title at FD.
