MoS

Omega is an incredible athlete and also an MMA fighter with a pretty okay record. He is a dweeb but no one was stuffing him in any locker. This honestly feels like confirmation bias because dribbling is a specific skillset that requires a lot of practice, and comparing this to a heavily edited and produced Mr. Perfect vignette seems to be setting him up to fail

If TNT are really brave they will give Juvi a live mic

Does Bryan-Omega or Punk-Omega need the world title? In fact, if there is no world title on the line, it means that Omega can actually lose and Bryan and Punk don't lose their first major match back. Booking them just to pop one big gate or for one major show instead of trusting their process and letting the big stars fit in and enhance their product doesn't seem far-sighted imo. It is, dare I say, what WCW used to do

THE JUICE IS LOOSE!!! (Also how is it just been 15 years MJF?) That main event was certainly a spectacle. Credit to Jericho, he clearly got his feelings hurt about his big Blood and Guts bump being mocked, so he killed himself to get the match over, and I thought it worked. I have a lot of questions and second guesses about some booking decisions tonight, but despite all of that, AEW just feels like a red-hot promotion right now. One week, Nick Gage shows up. Net week, Juventud will show up. Another week, Hiroshi Tanahashi might show up. Today Meng was there. Punk and Danielson are coming. It's just a hot promotion, even if I question some of its storytelling

Well they are not half-assing this are they

That fedora plus mask is not a good combo for Jericho

VENGEFUL GOD AND A DOUBLE JOINTED FIGHT LMAO

Cody being booed in Crockett country. The time has come for the heel turn

Was it a cut or did he break his arm? I'm not sure

I mean this guarantees that Punk is coming soon. But if he is working Darby, then who is facing Omega?

A lot of heel wins on this show. I don't know what I feel about it

Yeah but they didn't say it would be on AEW. PnP are so over

Wait is he going to wrestle on an AEW show??

Why did JR think a clear nearfall was an actual pin? This was worse than Cole botching the Sasha-Bayley actual pin. God JR is the worst

Yeah because anything else will be a huge letdown

Nick missed that dunk like he's Ben Simmons

You absolutely cannot have a 5×5 without commercial breaks I guess. I have missed half the big transitions of the match

Did they secretly decide to murder Stu Grayson or something lol. Dropping him on his head, not catching his dives

Worst product placement since Robocop

URGH the Elite are such dweebs. What is this shit

VERY surprised that the 5×5 is not main-eventing but THAT pop for Hangman

Hahahaha that little girl's parents are going to be mad. I remember my dad getting pissed cuz my 8-year Austin loving ass would keep flipping off people

Very curious about how they book the 5v5 match JR is also for some reason teasing Ric Flair to appear. AEW already has a reputation of being a promotion that teases and hypes its surprises way beyond they should be, and I hope either Ric comes in tonight or they don't tease his appearance ever

Yeah if they book Nikki competently, the dynamic with Charlotte would actually be great because she is so likeable and Charlotte is the most unlikeable person on the roster. Charlotte's record is what is it however. Man, I am so glad Joe is wrestling again. He is just the coolest. I honestly think he should beat Kross and become the NXT champ. He will revitalize an ice cold brand and if the purpose of NXT is to get wrestlers ready for the main roster, surely the best way for that is to have them work with the champ who has been a main eventer on the main roster. Apparently if had Jeff Hardy not got covid, Kross was going to lose again. So it's not as if being NXT champ matters at all on the main roster
