So when Nick Khan ran over so many people's careers, he did it...for The Rock?

Okay, in all seriousness, HOOK looked really good. He didn't have to sell or bump, nor should he have been, but he has his father's intensity and nastiness, but at the same time a good babyface look, what with his Vegeta hair. He is someone to watch out for, no doubt.

THE MAN IS HERE

That 6-woman tag was so much more fun than it had any right to be

Tully takes an apron bump like a boss

FTR and Lucha Bros don't always mesh, but they are meshing here

Wouldn't it be funny if it turns out that HOOK is just dogshit

Also, congratulations to all the HOOKers out there, I am sure this is a massive massive moment for them

I liked some interferences and interruptions, but it is kind of striking how basically every single women's segment, both matches and backstage promos, is booked literally the same. Most of them are fungible and interchangeable

Bryan Danielson is so good

Riho has always been one of AEW's consistently best TV workers in the division, and Hayter's offence looks excellent

There has to be something said about AEW's understanding the importance of happiness and prioritising it in its booking. It's one of the best things about it, and something that really sets it apart from WWE.

Those had excellent first segments, but I thought the Battle Royal that followed was better than the matches following those promos. I am a sucker for a well-booked battle royal, and AEW doesn't overdo them, so I like when they do one well

This was the best 30 minute stretch of AEW TV in AGES

It will be interesting to see if they ever try to book MJF as a babyface. After all, Piper was actually a face for longer than he was a heel if you think about it, and he kept drawing until into the nWo era.

I studied in New York for a year and believe me, I explored and loved every part of it, but Long Island certainly has some characters haha

Brother, have you been to Long Island

This is absolutely fantastic

HAHAHA what a dick move by Punk

Effy managing to get fans to pay for his speeding ticket is certainly something. Who says fans don't get legitimately worked anymore lol, even Harley Race would get envious about something like this

Sammy-Nese was a crazy spotfest. Sammy really does any move at any point in time in his matches. Not a lot of structure but a lot of insanity.

Hahahahaha

Saturday morning wrestling is alive and well

I legit thought it was a reversal, and I was so confused when it was Cody who went for the pin

Wait but only Cody went through the flaming table?? I legit thought that was a reversal??
