MoS

The promos on the show have been excellent so far, but the matches have been meh. Hopefully this match changes that

Kingston is so fucking good on the mic, it is genuinely amazing

Fuck me, Miro is JACKED. Clearly not having to take wellness tests is working out for him.

Lance has COVID and hopefully recovers soon, but this match should be bonkers. Stunning how having a roster full of over characters not buried to death can help with booking your way out of unexpected potholes.

Anna Jay and Brandi had a match far better than it had any right to be. I would have put over Jay clean though, without needing any Dark Order interference or eating a visual pinfall

Both funny and sad that they are finally booking Roman in all the right ways right when the promotion is at its nadir in popularity and basically irredeemable

I am not making two threads for the week. The one hour show tonight is so random. I guess because they did not know whether it would air this week or last week so they could not plan accordingly

I thought Suzuki-Ishii was comfortably better than Tana-Naito. Tana's style has never really worked for me and while I think people are too harsh on Naito in respect of his decline, there's no doubt he is not as good as he used to be. Someone who has really grown on me is Jay White. I was not a fan at all when he won the world title last year, but he has steadily improved and has become a great wrestler. He also is one of the few heels in pro wrestling who incorporates heel mannerisms throughout his matches. It does mean a lot of Gedo shenanigans which quickly become tiring, but his matches still remain enjoyable. Him snatching the ice pack from the ref after the match and applying it on his own neck was hilarious

Covid breaks out in NXT but the nonces don't get affected by it. There truly is no God

They should just make Sue women's champ once Shida has had her run

Yeah I actually thought the match was really good and one of the better AEW women's matches we have seen altho that's not much of a compliment. There were times when the match felt it would spiral out of control but Ivelisse ultimately put in a good performance in a good match I thought. It helps that both Rosa and Ivelisse are very charismatic, particularly Rosa whose physical charisma is ridiculous, so maybe I missed things I would have ordinarily noticed.

This episode was great. Strongest in recent weeks

This brawl is so much fun

Nice to see them go all in on Will Hobbs. I haven't seen much of him, is he good?

You think MJF joins the Inner Circle

This Kingston segment is pure gold and has me howling and marking out

Tony Khan could not ultimately resist the lure of being on TV lol

The Wednesday Night Skirmishes are back!

Apparently the Asuka-Mickie finish was a ref botch https://twitter.com/bryanalvarez/status/1305928977337393152?s=19

Sasha is a Sith Lord fuck yeah

Bray as Alexa's 2nd would be good

Raw is still a chore, but Smackdown has become much better and more watcheable with Bayley-Sasha and Roman/Heyman. Poor AJ tho lol

Bayley channelling her inner Eddie is awesome
