Spent that whole show with a smile plastered across my face. Well, other than that very serious sounding Adam Cole promo. Daddy Magic saying that they shared some “I love you’s” set the alarm bells ringing that it’s more than a wrestling injury but let’s hope not.
Whole show was great, even if the pre-show matches were rough as toast. Men’s gauntlet probably went too long but I guess TK wanted to give everyone their moment at the big show and Cope doing his full entrance on his return was stupid but those are my two gripes. It would have been easy to just crown Fletcher in the 4-way but giving Dustin that moment in Texas and giving us a couple of months of the DUSTIN RHODES TNT OPEN CHALLENGE before having Fletcher win will rule.
All the interference in the main kind of went down how I expected but that’s no bad thing as it was so great. The best Moxley match of his AEW run? Hangman feels some degrees bigger and better than during his last run and he really does feel like the man in a way nobody else is.
Awesome show. Felt like a huge celebration of what has made AEW so great in the last 6 months and has set up plenty for down the road. Athena vs Toni Storm is going to be so great
