I don’t know much about Fulham, but the Jags have been atrocious since Khan became owner. Only one winning season in the last 10 years (10-6 in 2017) and an overall record of 42-119. The debacle last year that was the hiring and firing of Head Coach Urban Meyer was hopefully rock bottom. The more I see and hear the more I worry about AEW.

Maybe where there’s smoke there’s fire. The way the Cody and MJF situations played out could very well happen with Punk too. I hope not, but if so it would be a worrying trend for AEW.

Whose House is it? Dragon’s House tonight apparently. Danielson vs Garcia 2/3 falls. Ricky The Dragon Steamboat as special guest timekeeper. AEW Trios Titles Andrade, Rush, and Dragon Lee vs The Young Bucks and a mystery partner. Maybe we’ll also get a reDRagon appearance. Any other dragon themed wrestlers they can find and bring in? What’s Super Dragon doing these days? Ultimo Dragon? Dragon Kid? Dragon Dragon?

Honestly that’s one of the things I love about Johnny Sorrow’s posts. I’ve seen him get negative about stuff he doesn’t like, but he doesn’t nit pick every little thing. If something is mostly positive in his eyes he’s going to be positive about it. I’d always rather hear about the stuff people like instead of what they don’t. There is a place for deep dives and criticism for sure, but for me week to week AEW puts on mostly enjoyable shows that are more good than bad in my opinion. AEW has been pretty quick to move on for the most part when something isn’t working and try something else.

I love FTR being treated as stars both in presentation and reaction.

I just question the timing, right after the Planeride From Hell episode and the fallout from that, and the stuff now with McMahon. It’s curious for them to pull the plug when you think it would be time to do a deep dive on WWF/E. But I am interested and excited for a series focusing on the territories if like you said they get actual wrestling historians and people that were there involved. I hope it isn’t more revisionist history but real history that does justice to the stories of the territories.

On the one hand I’m interested in this, but on the other hand it just seems a cop out to keep them from covering any more WWE stuff. https://bleedingcool.com/tv/dark-side-duo-johnson-seven-bucks-set-vice-tv-wrestling-docuseries/

I like underdog Yuta. Against someone like Mox or Jericho I like him a lot more than as Pure Champion.

It’s surprising to me that Christian is older than Matt Hardy. Current Matt Hardy looks like he would be a flunky in a backwoods stable like the Wyatt Family.

Dutt beat Low-Ki for the X-Division title in 2017.

Love Dante and Sammy. Fun match so far. Dante is only 21 years old. The sky is the limit for that kid.

2nding the rough bacne on Rush. Noticed that watching Death Before Dishonor. Hopefully Ricky Starks is ok and just selling. The neck gives him an excuse for losing in a way but after that entrance and then how things went down it seems strange.

Caught a replay of the PPV and it was a good show. World Title Match was underwhelming and deserved a better build, but 100% the right decision is to put the title on Claudio. 6 man tag was fun, I’m a fan of Dalton Castle. Women’s match and Rush vs Dragon Lee were both ok. Pure title match was good, I think both guys have a bright future ahead of them. The matches I was most I interested in and wanted to see were the TV title and Tag Title matches and both delivered. Hopefully Joe can keep having a good run. FTR as the Revival got me majorly interested in NXT when they were there and they will make me an ROH fan if they keep putting on matches like this. Really hope ROH gets a regular show soon.

Part of me would run an angle where Kingston has to join the JAS and Jericho tries to turn him into a sports entertainer before they have another match, but the JAS is too big already. Probably best to move on, at least for now. Maybe down the road have them meet in the finals of a tournament or some other event/match and put Kingston over then.

I have missed Orange Cassidy. Fun match, a little sloppy in places but well done for the most part all around.

Guess they might could elevate someone. Bron, Gunther.

Are there any free agents WWE could bring in that would be a fresh matchup for Roman and be credible? Seems like we are going to see a bunch of treading water until Cody is back or Rock agrees to a match.

Vince is doubling down. Show up, announce Cena. Do a little happy jump off the ring.

Carmella winning is a bit of a surprise but probably the best choice out of the 5 to feed to Bianca

Ok, the ref counting every time Bliss’s shoulders were down on the roll was pretty funny. And again on the small package. That’s creative.

Lol ok, I can get behind that.

Agreed. I like them showcasing the women’s roster though. Decent opening if a little paint by numbers.

I don’t understand Alexa’s current personality but still carrying around the doll.

Multi person matches in WWE are as to tournaments in AEW.

Stanley Cup finals but I’m not a huge hockey fan, especially not of Colorado or Tampa Bay.
