I do not at all enjoy this Jericho doing a WWE satire gimmick, nor do I like that Britt Baker's gimmick seems to be just shitting on her opponent's booking.

Wasn't Fenix supposed to be healed up and ready for action like 3 months ago

JR pretty openly hating Danhausen and all of his segments is good though, because I agree with him

Those aren't skinny jeans, they're track pants with a proper fit

Britt saying finally there's a woman in the ring who knows how to use a mic and immediately proceeding to cut a bad promo where she sounded nervous and stumbled over her words and no doubt ran long based on how fast Excalibur had to do the hard sell.

Hook being billed as 201 pounds is lmao Also lmao that Sammy and Tay were so annoying they turned Dan Lambert face

It's a shame NJ's tag division is garbage because AEW's tag roster is so loaded and there's really no big time matches for them at a joint show. If Kenny is back, I'd like to see Golden Lovers vs FTR.

Sting vs Okada

Mox makes Yuta and Shota fight for his love

FTR would be absolutely stupid to go back to WWE unless the money is absurd

I don't think the Texas death match was good at all. Idk what it was, something just felt off and the crowd was weirdly dead for most of it. I think Hangman should drop or modify the Dead Eye. There's just so much space between head and mat and no camera cuts can hide it. Must look terrible to live crowds, not unlike about 90% of inverted atomic drops. The only time it's looked good is the ones off the apron or ladder where he goes at an angle to hit the table. Anyway, glad Page can move on. Punk vs Page could get real interesting storywise and reaction wise.

Put the tag belts on FTR, graduate Jungle Boy to his singles run. Find another company for FTR to win the titles in and Ultimo Dragon it.

Keith Lee still looking unhealthy, but he and Swerve have some real interesting and unique double team moves.

I get that Marina Shafir is going for stone cold, ice in her veins killer but she just comes off like someone zombied out on percs or something.

Joey Samoey has looked REAL fired up in AEW. Thought that dude was honestly done for after that last NXT performance.

Is there a factory where all these giant Indian dudes are suddenly coming from?

The Hogan ep of EVIL is full of so much bullshit even for Hogan. Some of the more choice bullshit: He implies that he was nearly broke and homeless at the time WCW signed him and saved him by giving him a paycheck. There's a big segment about his creative control, and he legit said that the locker room's egos were out of control being offended at it. He went on to say that WCW went under because it was like the inmates were running the asylum. Just completely avoiding any responsibility for his role. He implies he had an idea to turn heel when he signed with WCW, then the very next segment he says it was Bischoff's idea, and Bischoff saying Hogan told him from the start he had no interest in turning heel. It also sounds like his main reason for being the 3rd man was because he didn't want Sting to get more attention than him. It portrays Hollywood Hogan as the ultimate cool bad guy anti hero that everyone wanted to be, basically talking about him like he was Stone Cold and not a mention of Hall and Nash being the cool ones in the nWo. Acting like the match with Rock gave him and Vince the idea that he could combine elements of each character, as if there weren't both a Hollywood face run AND return to red and yellow nostalgia run in WCW. More than an implication that Vince McMahon was the one who pulled WCW off the air after the purchase, and that one came from the narrator John Cena.

So...if Seth hadn't gone to Vince's office and begged for a match at WM, would Cody have been signed? He was Vince's hand picked opponent, which would imply that Vince directly went out and signed Cody specifically for this match at WM.

Two underrated spots from the tag last night: Dax doing the fake punch out into a DDT spot but doing a piledriver instead Dax catching Nick flipping out of the air. You never think of FTR as power guys but the strength on display was pretty nuts. He did it with one of the Briscoes and it was oh shit there, too.

Sammy/Tay are going to have a killer heel run soon, whether they want to or not

This might be better than the FTR/Briscoes match

Dax is definitely on a run right now

I hope this isn't leading to Hardys/Sting/Darby vs Andrade Family Office in war games.

Surely the Hardys have earned their spots enough to not still have to be doing tables and ladders shit every week

This match is a disaster
