I fucked that up (and edited my post), I wanted to say it wasn't shown.

Yo, the crowd doesn't give a single fuck about this beatdown, lol.

I've always thought the Tony fearing for his life stuff was lawyer speak to justify Punk's dismissal. But whatever happened for them to come up with that phrasing wasn't in the footage shown tonight. At least that's what people in AEW have told reporters (for whatever that's worth). And I have no clue what Perry was doing. He kept adjusting his hair during the whole convo with Punk and all of a sudden Punk shoves him and then goes for another shove (or a punch?), Perry ducks and then gets put in a shitty guillotine. Man, I'm sure Jericho's scraps with Goldberg and Brock were better than this

The best possible outcome was showing footage of two people that aren't in the company having an incredibly boring scrap backstage to give their match a convoluted reason to be "bigger"? Nah man, that was a waste of time and it's just gonna give people more ammo to make AEW look 2nd rate and desperate. They keep losing the perception battle and doing shit that makes them look worse.

Well, we were asking all week what was the point of showing the footage and trying our best to come up with 1 scenario were it would be useful or positive to do it. And in the end, it was as dumb as we all thought it was going to be. It didn't add anything to the FTR match, it didn't make people care, I'd be legit shocked if it made a tiny difference in ratings. Just a real dumb ass WCW move.

I think I already posted about this but man, I absolutely love the look of a sold out arena with a minimal entrance. I have to tip my hat to HHH for not giving a fuck about a grandiose look when there's a chance of selling more tickets.

One thing the D-Bry run gave the fans that I hate is the "you deserve it" chant. They should be chanting something to the tune of "you earned it", specially for a case like this one with Cody.

Seth getting Yamcha'd was a delight. All jokes aside though, dude really is a team player, thankfully because WWE needs him to not believe he should have a bigger role than what he had in this run.

"How the hell do I tell this guy he has to drop the belt to The Rock in Saudi Arabia in 6 months?"

Yeah, momma Rhodes getting chocked up almost had me.

That was an spectacle.

See what happens when commentary actually adds to a match? My god that was AWESOME. Perfect time for la U to get their match started, I'll be back in time for the main event most likely.

LMAO give Snoop a cotdamn contract RIGHT NOW. He's fucking gold!

Snoop high as fuck on the call, finally someone to make this shit bearable.

Is...is that Alex Jones in a ref shirt?

That was nicely done, it also perfectly sets up Drew to get it back in Scotland.

To be honest I'm glad they went with a sprint instead of slow building match. It's like Nakamura in New Japan, lol.

I thought Seth's entrance was actually dope but commentary did everything in their power to ruin it. If they are gonna be worse than yesterday, lawd help me.

Oh wow, that's bizarre. It's pretty evident only the lowest common denominator on Twitter continues to really care about that incident, so I'll be surprised if it pops a rating. Bucks matches and segments have been dying a death for more than a year now. Feels like they are validating Punk too. Cattering to a small/loud portiom of the fan base that can't get past AEW vs WWE stan wars.

It's gonna be the typical trolling bit by the Bucks, right? Like a clip of them in catering and some jokes about glass, chocking and quitting.

That main event was really fucking fun. I only began watching from the last minutes of the ladder match but Sami/Gunther and Rock/Roman vs Cody/Rollins "saved" the show. Imagine if Stone GOAT would've put the effort to show up in the build up We still need the glass to shatter tomorrow. Cody gonna need Cena AND Austin to make it a fair fight.

That table to spear combination felt like them Shield chaos tag matches that I loved so much.

Commentary has been fucking unbearable during the main event. Trying my best to cancel the noise and enjoy the match.

The Rock doesn't fuck around.

Crowd finally woke up. Big match feel. Here we go.
