Now that I'm watching AEW weekly and loving it, I have to just say... Aubrey Edwards is fucking terrible. She's the modern day Dick Wohrle, always making herself part of the show instead of being an invisible part of the match. Refs as characters is never good. She stinks with all the poses you can't not see once you see them,

I know I was shitting on Mark Sterling recently, but I realized what I hated was the whole "Smart" Mark Sterling name. It was so indyriffick that it influenced how I thought about him. Khan must have realized the same thing when they decided to push him as a serious manager. Drop the " Smart" and get some great suits. I like him now! He dresses better and he comes off as a ready for Prime Time wrestling manager.
-
When do you all think they'll pull the trigger on the Elite vs. Undisputed feud? We're already seeing seeds planted. Really obvious seeds like that "Cutler Cam" bit that was an exercise in " Sometimes, you need a script." Do they have to hold out until Omega is healthy? Cause that's how you bring him back as a babyface, right?
-
Pink vs Dustin was fucking great.It's one of my favorite matches I've seen in awhile. It was great to see that an AEW crowd can turn against Punk, since he's going to have to go heel sooner if not later. He's meant to be a heel. That Undisputed Elite stuff with Cutler cam was subpar indy bad. Tony passionately explaining why arm drags are awesome was incredible. He's the best. The whole " Pig" thing is the only bad part of the Wardlow/ MJF feud. It sounds dumb. Is Mark Sterling the best we got out there as far as modern day managers? Cause he's all over this show and he stinks. Bring in Prince Nana permanently.
-
Butcher would have been a top heel in 1987 WWF.
-
Jesus, let's not have Khan on tv. That announcement went over like a fart in church.
-
I was just joking about Jesus Cole but apparently I wasn't the only one who noticed. Bischoff is complaining about AEW "mocking people's religion" with the thorny barb wire crown spot on a guy who looks like Jesus. Hahaha.
-
My favorite bad part of Rampage every week is scripted and stilted Mark Henry in a little box delivering his " It's the Main Event!" catch phrase.
-
Gulak is just fine. Whatever this gimmick is he's going to make it work. He's apparently very well liked backstage and doesn't he work with the celebrities to train them for matches? More people saw him on TV tonight than probably any other time he's been on outside of the little deal he had going with Danielson.
-
It being Good Friday, a crown of thorny barb wire on Jesus Cole's head was placed. And then they put him through a table for our sins.
-
I didn't mind the giant monster dude debuting and squeezing Joe's head. I like my promotions to have a monster. The problem I had was the whole, "lights go out and come back on to reveal him" bit. That only works if the surprise guy is someone we know.
-
I loved how reverential all the announcers were of Regal when he was out there.
-
What I meant was the crowd started getting behind Page right before he said that.
-
Ethan Page babyfacing that segment was wild. The only way this Sammy vs ATT deal works is as a heel vs heel program. And they almost never work.
-
They can go back to Pete Dunne eventually, but I gotta admit I'm loving Butch as an evil, crazy, and violent Spike Dudley here.
-
Ludwig has a Kaiser roll in his tights, that's for sure. Holy shit. Man, I love the Bloodline so much. Uso's have to get the Raw belts, right? They need to be draped in all the titles.
-
Drew is the guy who does nothing for me, but the boys here absolutely love him. He's one of their favorites.
-
Ludwig Kaiser is the funniest generic German name imaginable. I love it. And I prefer in shape Gunther. His tights aren't distractingly too small anymore. And to be honest, I'm fine with " Gunther". It's dumb but I always thought Walter was a dumb name too.
-
And " Bodyguard of asshole turning face while crowd chants his name and then he starts destroying motherfuckers" is Old School wrestling booking 101.
-
Holy shit, Excalibur is marble mouthed tonight. I feel bad for him. You can tell it's frustrating him. I've been there.
-
Butcher is a guy Vince Sr. would have pushed as one of Backlund's 2 and done at the Garden Main Events. 1985 Vince would have had Butcher on the roster forever, into the early 90's. You know. The years where looking old and bald didn't matter if you were a fucking working monster.
-
My feed is later, I just watched Joe kill Caster followed by the Lethal promo. Lots of fans shit on nostalgia. I don't. I love it. But I now feel really old popping for ROH 2005 nostalgia. Still love it.
-
Twitter is full of weirdos who post dumb shit. It's not indicative of all fans of WWE. I saw AEW fans on Twitter freaking out on Cody for showing up at Mania and one guy posted a video of him burning his AEW Cody T-shirt. That's not indicative of all AEW fans, that too is just some Twitter weirdos. And it's not as if people only watch one promotion or the other. That's overblown. Most fans posting online and in the live crowds probably watch at least some of both. I know I do.
-
Oh, and every match called by Pat is always at least 20% better because Pat's calling it. He's the best in the biz.

My brother said she was Lady Gaga with a Fifth Element motif. She looked amazing.
