I see Rey got in touch with Muta's mask guy

Lita was doing fine until around the middle of the match where she totally gassed out. It was weird to have her in so much of the match as a non-active wrestler.

There aren't really any other women to bring back who were actually over in their time and still have cache.

Braun got laid the fuck out god damn lmao

This is rad

I thought Cena/Theory was perfectly fine and enjoyable, even the ref bump and finish, although I think it would have been better for Theory to not have had to do a low blow.

Running the Make A Wish package and actually having MAW kids in Cena's entrance only to have him lose to Theory is incredible

It's hard to think of a single talent that leveled up so much as Jey Uso in the past 3 years. Dude is an absolute top tier performer in every facet of sports entertainmenting.

I would not. Neither Steiner Brother have ever not said whatever they felt like saying regardless of consequences, in public, even on screen.

Definitely a chance to be an all timer WM if they can stick the landing on the major angles and the attraction matches deliver.

I would not expect any of the Steiners to be any type of politically correct or inoffensive on just about any subject or group of people

How does Punk still manage to be the center of drama when he hasn't even been in the locker room for 9 months

Vikingo is a fucking alien. Sting doing OC spots was such a delight.

Two 3 1/2-4 hours shows over two nights is absolutely better than one 6+ hour show.

Sanada vs MJF for Forbidden Door lmao

I don't think anyone expected the Paige deal to go the way it has gone. It seemed like a big deal and good signing at the time both online and for the live crowd.

That was kind of what I was wondering. Imagine Dom retires Rey and takes the mask. Has there ever been a father vs son Luchas de Apuestas?

An hour and a half of Mike Graham sounds like a nightmare

Going into the crowd seems like it would never be worth the risk in liabilities alone, not even to get into not being able to control the environment and the myriad of issues that can stem from that.

Show way, way, way over delivered.

Reading the thread, I figured MJF had thrown a drink hard directly in a kid's face. Then I saw it and it was such a quick and half hearted thing. Like MJF even realized before and while he was doing it that it was a bad idea and sheepishly did it and got away as fast as he could. However, he threw water over multiple people in the front row later in the match and no one has mentioned it at all.

Christian/Jungle Boi was exactly what it should have been and I hope that wasn't the end of Christian's run because that dude was S-tier heel piece of shit that entire run. A real shame he got the injury when he did. Really put Jungle Boy in limbo for 6 months but also deprived the world of that turtleneck dickhead.

Christian is everything MFJ tries to be

Everyone thought it was amazing when Sasha yanked Izzy's headband off and broke it in the ring and made her cry. Anyway, fucking dying at Christian managing to still wear a (sleeveless) turtleneck to a buried alive match. Absolute legend.

I suppose I give AEW more of a cushion in general, but I don't think every major storyline getting derailed by injuries, suspensions, or attitude problems is talked about enough when the talk about the poor booking in 2022. Like....EVERY major storyline. All fucking year. One of the most snakebitten years for that I can ever remember in a company.
