C.S.

Did Omega really just imitate Urkel?

IT'S CHRISTIAN TIME

Five-star classic. But seriously, it was actually fun for what it was.

Ugh... I forgot about Show vs. QT. At least it will be quick. More toilets are going to be flushed in the next minute than at any other time in recorded history.

Punk hasn't lost a step.

CM Punk and Darby Allin have the crowd eating out of their hands.

Either I'm tired or this is the "cooldown" match.

Wasn't expecting Ruby to actually win.

RUBY SOHO IS ALL ELITE!

That ended up being pretty damn good. Wow!

God, the Bucks are such great heels.

Did anyone catch J.R.'s (?) dig when he responded "The Maguire Twins" to the list of great tag teams one of the other commentators was saying the Bucks are better than, haha.

Moxley-Kojima was just okay IMO. Is it just me or was it a bit of a clash of styles?

Cool brawl. I love Kingston's unique selling style.

Is this referee purposely slow and incompetent?

Really fun opener!

For anyone watching on Fite, does the Buy In roll right into the main show, or do you have to click out and back in?

It is pretty easy. Sign up at https://www.fite.tv/ (or log in if you already have an account), look for AEW All Out 2021, click to pay (I used PayPal), and then you might need to log out of the site and then back in again for the purchase to show up there. (It showed up without any issues on my Roku and phone app.) Here's hoping streaming the actual show will be smooth sailing...

I'm with you. Drove me crazy when people on PWO referred to Andrade as Sombra for years afterward (to use one example), while I'd be thinking: "No, he's no longer Sombra and hasn't been for a very long time. Get with it, people!!!"

I've been talking up Christian for months and talking down PAC for years. On this show, Christian is in the main event and PAC is nowhere to be found (hope he's okay if it's Covid though!), so I put my money where my mouth is and ordered it.

Good news for anyone who hates Bleacher Report.

Like NXT UK, they were hoping to branch out with NXT Japan and other NXT territories in various parts of the world.

No disdain whatsoever for Impact. It currently has the best World Champion in all of wrestling. I'm just realistic about Impact's place in the market. It's not as big as WWE, as hot as AEW, or as important as NJPW. After that, you get into Impact, ROH, NWA, etc. indie level - feds that have been cooled off and have very little buzz outside of the occasional exception. (Where Impact ranks among the ROHs and NWAs of the world is for other people to debate.) That, of course, doesn't mean you can't or shouldn't enjoy Impact - you absolutely should - especially since, like I said, Christian is the #1 World Champ in the biz. My point was simply, if PAC were a free agent now, would he really get a second glance by AEW when Bryan Danielson, potentially Adam Cole, and others are all available? Aiden English is great, but he's not the type who would be scooped up by AEW - and he wasn't. Impact got him, and that feels right. Ditto for W. Morrisey. PAC would be in the same boat. Even Matt Cardona only got a limited number of dates with AEW (which turned out to be for the best, because he is killing it now with his new persona in GCW).

Not hatred - just apathy. If PAC was a free agent now instead of at the beginning of AEW, he'd be in Impact instead - like Aiden English, etc. I won't criticize travel issues during a pandemic, but it's not the first time for he's had to miss out on a major All Out match. I feel bad for his fans, because it's impossible to invest in him. Are they replacing PAC with anyone? Someone told me Andrade will be facing a mystery opponent instead. No idea if that's true, but if it is, almost anyone they could put in that slot would be a bigger deal and make for a better match.

This one sucks. Suicide. She was only 46.
