C.S.

Tony Khan has the weirdest facial expressions and eye expressions.

Jericho seems to confirm an MJF babyface turn.

Now Jericho is lecturing the AEW roster about using profanity like they're wayward children.

Punk is dropping f-bombs, shooting on Colt, EVPs, and Hangman Page at the media scrum. This is CRAZY!

Imagine getting the top WWE guy of the past ten years in Danielson and having him lose to a perennial WWE midcarder/gatekeeper like Jericho. Danielson is too unselfish.

Nothing about this pre-show has convinced me to fork over $50 for the PPV. This has been the drizzling shits so far. It started off on the wrong foot with Sammy and Tay getting attacked by what looked like a toy car - WTF? - and then a disgusting public display of affection involving a bleeding Sammy making out with Tay. Eddie Kingston will make up for it, and I'm sure the main show will at least be a fun if overlong and overbooked night of wrestling, but I'm happy saving my money. Edit: Now Kip Sapian is arguing with a fucking cardboard box. Al Snow and Chavo Guerrero Jr. may have been able to pull off such silliness, but Kip Sapian is no Al Snow and he's not even Chavo Guerrero Jr.

Awesome main event, but Bate should have won IMO. I looked her up, and I'm shocked that she's younger than me. I was convinced she was in her 60s.

My guess is Damon Kemp (Gable Steveson's brother) was the one who attacked Roddy in the lawsuit waiting to happen extreme security hazard known as the NXT parking lot?

The Creeds need bushy '80s mustaches.

Is that MJF???

This thread is like an early pandemic wrestling show. No one's here.

Damn fun match. Nice intensity from Melo and Chet near the end.

The fans are chanting for the AEW video game.

Starting with Melo vs. Ric O. Chet.

I think people are overreacting to MJF's absence - assuming it's all a work, which I personally believe it is. This is a marathon, not a sprint. He will instantly be molten lava hot the second he comes back, with these past few months receding into the background as just a blip on the radar.

The asshole fan with the "Better Dad Than Chris Benoit" shirt should have been ejected from the arena. My thoughts exactly.

WTF is happening right now?

They just repeated the Claymore into spear spot. The finish has to be the same spot again, but with Drew finally connecting with the Claymore... ...right? Edit: Maybe not.

Prediction: "The Cure for Insomnia" Karrion Kross interferes, both men are laid out, Austin Theory cashes in.

Roman just did the Rock Bottom! IT'S ON!!!

The in-ring will be shit because Kross is shit, but the banter leading up to the match will be golden. It will be the ultimate carry job. You can say Drew will be "Karrion" Kross.

Red is all over the Clash logo, so maybe just that. Or maybe red for Raw. Is Cole wearing blue?

Seth says "hold my beer, HAHAHAHAHA!" and comes out looking even more ridiculous.

It looked awesome, and Rey sold it like he was shot.
