Feel free to continue posting your own thoughts about Brodie Lee the wrestler in here or memories from his friends and peers. If there is any more "drama", create a new thread.

This was tough. I can easily do one for the 80s and one for the 90s. Combining the 2 decades is torture.

Real quick... this is a thread for news and remembrance of Huber. No more sidetracks. Thanks.

I thought it was a fun match but not a fan of the result. I really prefer Omega in tag matches.

I think Darby wins. Unless they mean to bury him, it really felt like Cody was underestimating him.

I agree with you but ,while typing this, they have a great video package on the tag match that makes me interested in the match even if the week to week build didn't.

The lineup convinced me to buy this PPV along with the Mox-Kingston build. The only PPV I haven't bought was the last one and I think I made the right decision. When I have purchased the PPVs, I have never been disappointed. I don't expect that to change tonight.

Great interview. "I am sick and tired of seeing my childhood heroes die" "It's plain fucking greed"

This will be the first AEW PPV I skip. Like everyone else, the handling of Matt Hardy left a bad taste in my mouth and the only way I can protest is by not giving them my money.

A little bit from column A and a little bit from column B.

I was just about to post a link to the same thing https://www.ringsidenews.com/2020/06/19/velveteen-dream-accused-of-being-a-child-predator-as-more-victims-emerge/amp/?__twitter_impression=true

I combined the initial comments with Kawada's thread. From this point forward, if you are going to comment on a claim, please provide an actual link to the story or tweet. Thanks!

Based on the glowing reviews, I ordered the replay. Not the best PPV of all time level for me but worth the money. I am not going to recap every match but I'll just add a few comments. I didn't mind the ladder match at all. I know there was some negative buzz but it was what I expected. Stupid spots? Check. Fun and crazy spots? Check. Some botches? Check. Some beautifully executed spots? Check. Not feeling Brian Cage at all. I don't like his look or mannerisms but I like the way he debuted. MJF vs. Jungle Boy was my favorite match on the card. Amazing selling by Jungle Boy. Great work by MJF. The best match I have seen from either guy. Brodie Lee vs. Moxley was pretty great. However, I think AEW needs to start spacing out their tribute to the past spots. I enjoy it because I'm old enough to enjoy the originals but I think they would stick more if they spaced them out. I'm in the camp who enjoyed the main event. Sammy Guevara is #1 and the best. Him and Page were by far my favorite guys in the match. Thumbs up from me!

Ok, I skipped this because of the empty arena, but from people's reactions, I need to order the replay.

For the record, Chuck D has publicly walked this back. I think it was on Talib Kweli's podcast. Great interview!

Feels like something easy to pass on.

I didn't really disagree with anything else you said except this or haven't listened to the episode. However, I thought Dean was great. He also suffers from Parkinson's so that may affect the way he comes across but we always hear how funny he is backstage and I thought that came across throughout the whole episode.

This was much better but let me give a little bit of context. After the first AEW PPV, I typed in Orange Cassidy in Youtube and th Jervis and Cabana matches were the first two to pop up. I couldn't make it through. Hopefully, AEW keeps him in their with guys who won't play along and take his head off.

It's not my cup of tea and not what I want to watch. Same goes for the Cabana match where Cassidy is holding a beer the whole time.

This was a match I saw of him on the indies.

The big difference I see in AEW compared to his indy run is that Cassidy is not doing entire matches of meta bullshit. There is a Cassidy vs. Cabana match on YouTube that made me roll my eyes and was one of the dumbest things I had ever seen. There was another match from Austin that I thought was equally as stupid. Two matches and I had written the guy off. However, AEW has really been smart about allowing him to play up that shtick but with the other wrestlers not playing into the bullshit. He can have his show off moments but when it comes time to wrestle, retain the character but actually wrestle or get your ass beat.

The Bubbly Bunch was amazing. Shocking that Jake Hager has a personality. I lost it when the prize was hand sanitizer. Orange Cassidy's debut on TV was disappointing because Jericho spent the entire match putting over Jimmy Havoc which I don't think was the intended outcome they were looking for.

I agree wholeheartedly with Kenny. I know they are trying to give these local guys a chance but national TV is not the place to give them offense against one of your champions. I love all of the vignettes, personality profiles, hyping up BTE. I know these things don't get ratings but they give the wrestlers more depth. I think these are things that will help the wredtlers more in the long run.

If you told me 6 months ago that a match between Darby Allin and Sammy Guevara would be a slugfest with 2 bloody faces and Darby working on Sammy's ankle after removing his boot, i wouldn't have believed you... but thats what we got. If this happens in front of a live crowd, it would be even better but what we got was pretty damn great. Jericho was great on commentary once again.

I turned the TV on just in time to see Sammy fly onto a prone Darby lying on the ladder. Sammy Guevara deserves most improved wrestler. His mannerisms, slowing down and being more vicious in his attacks, just a great character all around.
