AEW Double or Nothing

[sek69]

Angelico and Jack Evans would have been so much bigger stars if Lucha Underground was on a channel most people watched.

[C.S.]

Guys, it's one thing to hear that they filled an arena of this size, and another thing to actually see it. Really impressive feat. 

[Mad Dog]

It's so weird looking at people in the crowd and they are just intently watching what's going on in the ring.

[C.S.]

I usually hate handshake stuff, but I needed a lengthy pee break, so I'm grateful for the timing. 

[hammerva]

Is one of the guys Evil Uno?

Okay so apparently it was the Super Smash Brothers.   Haven't seen them in a while because I didn't recognize the other one at all

 

[C.S.]

One thing the commentators need to improve is announcing the names of these surprises (I won't nitpick the lack of excitement/forced excitement after the first lights out). I have no idea who the hell any of these people are.

So I kind of agree but I also like the confusion too. It makes it feel a little more raw and real. Though Excalibur should have just spit it out for the other two.

Aja should backfist these little girls into the stratosphere.

[Mad Dog]

JR is popping for Aja Kong in this match.

[Mad Dog]

God I fucking love joshi.

[C.S.]

Did Aja ever have a cup of coffee with the WWF Women's Title? I can't remember. I know she and Madusa/Alundra had matches there.

[hammerva]

Aja isn't very mobile or she is hurt but she can still knock or kick you the fuck out

[Mad Dog]

Bull did but I don't believe Aja did.

[Mad Dog]

This is only 90 minutes in and I feel like I got my $50 worth already.

[C.S.]

So, Riho was apparently the 9-year-old girl Kenny Omega wrestled in the match that Jim Cornette always blows a gasket over. 

[Mad Dog]

That was the best match on the show so far.

[sek69]

Isn't it great having different styles and not having every match be slight variations on the same thing?

Yes, it is really refreshing.

How many matches left? I hope they learned from All In and don't have issues with the timing of the show...

[Mad Dog]

I was always more of a WCW fan than a WWE fan. This is just one show but so far it feels like the promotion I have been waiting for since 2001.

[C.S.]

Roku B/R app feed quality has been up and down for me. I've gotten loading screens a couple of times. How are the rest of you doing?

3 from what I can see.

Cody/Dustin, Kenny/Jericho, and Bucks/Lucha Bros I think.

I've been good since the end of the first match.

I wonder if it's because I'm watching on my ancient living room Roku 3. The old girl has served me well and I believe still gets system updates, but she's a bit long in the tooth. (I have a much newer Roku Ultra inside.)
