MoS

How do they address the biggest, most embarrassing both in their history? Apologise and move on? Try to work it in a storyline? Double down on it? Pray?

Hey man, one's man's cowardice is another man's smartness #IntelligentBabyfacesFTW

The only retcon even slightly conceivable is them saying Mox realised Kenny fucked up and whispered to Eddie to play dead so Kenny and the Dork Brothers didn't return to finish them off. Of course that wouldn't explain why the announcers treated this like they just saw Misawa die in the ring

Tony apologising for it and Kingston cutting a promo where he makes a kayfabe explanation is the best way to move forward I would think. I mentioned in the beginning of this thread that I have thought that AEW's booking has been inconsistent for a while now. Hopefully this means they never hotshot a gimmick match to heat up a cold PPV and instead allow booking and stories to sell the PPV. Doing the former instead of the latter means that you always rely on the gimmickry failing and you having nothing to back it up. Good booking, on the other hand, always allows you to have a backup.

Between this shit and the biggest star of all time being Christian, AEW's credibility and rep as non-bullshitters took a severe hit tonight

That was the worst explosion I have ever seen. It's a shame cuz I thought the match was great

That non-kickout kickout was brilliant

This cinematic match was good but it featured too much Sting, too little Darby

Commentary during a cinematic match is a terrible idea. It's just so counter-productive

Maybe Christian joins the Dark Order

I think the rapper gimmick is terrible, and he is a terrible rapper, but "blood on my hands like Governor Cuomo" was a good line

I love the Page-Dark Order dynamic. They're all the Mankind to his Rock

Hangman Page being a smart babyface and thus avoiding my least favourite wrestling trope warms my heart

Tbf Fenix is 30, he's been great for a while and has earned a big win

Fenix's ability to elevate every match he is into a great match is extraordinary

Silver v. PAC is LITTLE MEATY MEN SLAPPING MEAT

I dunno, I think it has picked up in the last half

Tony Schiavone's pure hatred for MJF is pure gold

JR has been the worst commentator in pro wrestling for 2 years now. Is it me, or does Jericho look as if he has lost some weight recently

This match is being strategically worked to give Cornette a heart attack

It's weird because I think AEW has had really inconsistent and something mediocre booking the last few months, but somehow this PPV seems to have a big buzz. I am really looking forward to it. Onita's baby on big budget international PPV is the absolute best way to start 2021

This made me laugh out loud
