MoS

Going from all the drip in the Team Taz-Acclaimed-Swerve segment to Jericho lol TK certainly has a sense of humour

He is better than TRENT Match was surprisingly long given how little offence Best Friends got, but given the post-match angle, clearly they wanted to get Yuta over and they achieved that at least with this crowd EDIT: Danielson has the best shit-eating heel grin ever

Wow Dragon and Mox are treating Chuckie like a complete jobber

lol at Regal's reaction to Danhausen. Danhausen v. Danielson best-of-11 falls match where Danielson beats him with every different finisher he has

As someone who started watching 20 minutes ago, I am so much more pissed that the opening trios went at least 5 minutes longer than it needed to

That Hangman hot tag brought the match up several levels, and clearly the live crowd agreed

Starting my watch, all results have been spoiled but none really were in doubt anyway - Man I don't appreciate Hangman still having to carry Cole's ass though

In his post-match interview, he said people had awoken something in him and they might end up regretting it, so I expect him to turn up soon and maybe finally begin his heel turn

Why are "matches" and "professional wrestling" in quotes

Also like, maybe he is just not there lol. If he has not been announced for a match, AEW can very well claim he just wasn't in the building

I have not watched yet, but Punk did not win with an assist from Wardlow, Wardlow simply refused to help MJF. Prior to that, he was giving Wardlow neck-breaking powerbombs to the point Punk wanted to rematch him and not MJF. It is absolutely fine for Punk to not get between these people's business, since they used Punk as a prop in theirs.

Wasn't this some BTE reference to his dick size or something. Apparently that's what Full Gear's name is a wink-wink reference to as well.

WCW's ticket prices were always quite cheap, certainly cheaper than WWF's. For the Dome show, it was also a matter of prestige since Turner executives were going to be attending, and obviously WWF and Austin had recently turned around the war after a long time of losing. I wouldn't be surprised if a bunch of the tickets sold in the last few days were discounted. AEW would also have quite cheap tickets, which explains why there have been far more highly attended AEW shows that did not reach the $1 million mark. But recently, I think they have felt confident enough to increase their ticket prices, and attendance hasn't suffered so a good decision. Don't think it comes close to Raw and Smackdown ticket prices, but AEW's brand is nowhere near strong yet to command that.

AEW had its first $1 million gate in history. Not sure if WCW ever managed a $1 million gate, although you obviously have to take inflation into account.

He's also a reporter and journalist, it's his job to inform if he has a confirmed update. Waltman explicitly quoted him to say he was accurate, so he must have got something on the record from a near and dear one.

When I think about it, he was the coolest member of both nWo and Kliq. Just exuded charisma, it dripped from his bones. This will sound very naive, but I hope he is in a better, less painful place now.

RIP to the coolest member of the nWo

All I really want is for Big E to be healthy. If no surgery necessary, I am literally dancing in joy and in relief. That fucker is a superstar

I liked Nexus Punk v. Orton too. Another voice for Jericho-Rey and Eddie-Rey. Also Mysterio-Matt Hardy in 2003. Rey is one of the GOATs.

1975: Bruno, Andre, Patterson 1985: Flair, Lawler, Hansen 1995: Aja, Hash, Misawa 2005: Joe, Cena, Mysterio 2015: Danielson, Big E, Sasha Banks

Caught up on your review now and it was worth the wait

Not a fan of Adam Cole continuing to be in the title picture though. I have been dying for them to do Page-Black forever and they just don't do it for whatever reason.

AEW apparently broke the wrestling gate record for the Forum for their L.A debut.

Also you can shit on Jericho and Hager all you want, he was the one who elevated Orange Cassidy, he has made Kingston look like a million bucks, and he is now sharing his spotlight with Garcia. That opening segment was absolutely fantastic and as far as why these people would suddenly align with Jericho - I dunno, maybe Jericho went to them and said hey guys, we've had issues, but my friends suck, fuck my teammates, they chose King over me, I will now screw them over. It's not some convoluted Russo-esque twist, it's clearly been building for weeks.

Managed to catch the Wednesday show and I thought it was a perfectly good post-PPV show that set up a bunch of stories while also having an all-time great promo segment.
