gordi Posted November 9, 2019 Report Posted November 9, 2019 Here's what I'm worried about: Janela vs Spears, PAC vs Page, Bucks vs Santana and Ortiz, SCU vs Lucha Bros vs Private Party, and Omega vs Moxley are all very very very likely to be super fast paced go-go-go matches crammed full of insane high spots. I'm worried that it will be like watching a three-hour cut of one of those "Moves that made me go Holy $#*! videos on youtube. I don't think I'd enjoy that. I really hope that Jericho and Cody go for an older-school style storytelling match with some build and some dynamics... and maybe Riho and Emi do some mat work and chain wrestling? Maybe Page works more of a classic cowboy brawler style? I really hope that they break up the go-go-go pace at least a little bit and give us some variety. Quote

Cody seems to have developed a solid, storytelling-heavy pseudo-brawling style which is definitely what I think we'll see. Especially considering Jericho finally came to his senses about his physical limitations a year ago. Quote
Slasher Posted November 9, 2019 Report Posted November 9, 2019 Question about B/R Live, since I am hard of hearing, I was wondering if AEW PPVs would have subtitles? The Countdown video didn't have any, but other stuff on BR Live like the Rich Eisen show does. I am very interested in watching the show tonight but I need assurance there will be subtitles, so if anyone here could shed light on that, would be greatly appreciated. Quote
NintendoLogic Posted November 9, 2019 Report Posted November 9, 2019 There's a major disconnect between Page's persona and his wrestling style. He's basically Seth Rollins in chaps. Dude needs to study tapes of LA Park or even the Briscoes to learn how to be violent and dangerous while flying all over the place. Quote
Dale Wolfe Posted November 9, 2019 Report Posted November 9, 2019 Despite thinking the TV has been pretty inconsistent, I actually think this has a lot of potential. As mentioned up thread, it might end up going a bit too flip-flop but if they show a bit of restraint & card I'd structured well it could be really good Quote
El-P Posted November 10, 2019 Report Posted November 10, 2019 Fuck restraint. Seriously. I hope for two zillions dives, a hundred bumps on the apron, buckets of blood and weapons shots and garbage bumps galore in the lights out match. Gimme workrate on cocaine, an orgy of moves and all around insanity. Quote
sek69 Posted November 10, 2019 Report Posted November 10, 2019 The pre show has been great so far. Love watching Mox walking around an empty 2300 Arena reminiscing about CZW. Quote
MoS Posted November 10, 2019 Report Posted November 10, 2019 Anyone knows how many tickets they ended up selling? Quote
El-P Posted November 10, 2019 Report Posted November 10, 2019 Gonna watch the Dentist (did you know she was ?) and off to bed. Quote

I got the cleaner reference, but it's still a guy carrying a broom. Maybe he should wear a pair of those slippers that have dusters on the bottom of them, wrap them in barbed wire, and then he can superkick Moxley in the face. This is such an incredible idea. I've been chuckling at it on and off all day, excellent work. Nice to hear Taz again; he has a genuinely solid rapport with Excalibur that AEW should explore going forward. Quote

Coffey Posted November 10, 2019 Report Posted November 10, 2019 Well that match was fucking terrible. Quote
MoS Posted November 10, 2019 Report Posted November 10, 2019 I'm glad they removed Baker from the title picture. Quote
El-P Posted November 10, 2019 Report Posted November 10, 2019 What ? It was a decent little match. Bea Priestly is good. Baker is way green. I knew it. They look AWESOME. Quote

Flyin' Brian Posted November 10, 2019 Report Posted November 10, 2019 Anybody down in the Jacksonville area? Here for two weeks for work, watching the PPV at a bar/arcade downtown called the rec room. Britt and Bea was kind of sloppy. Brandi and Kong coming down afterwards was cool though. Quote
Slasher Posted November 10, 2019 Report Posted November 10, 2019 Wait, Brandi and Kong are meant to be babyfaces? Quote
Stiva Posted November 10, 2019 Author Report Posted November 10, 2019 Great to see Kong finally hit the ring. Riho/Kong is genuinely intriguing going forward and it's time to see if Kong is a draw post-GLOW. Quote

NintendoLogic Posted November 10, 2019 Report Posted November 10, 2019 A wrestler who uses medical terminology to describe what they're going to do to their opponents is a pretty great character. It's a shame that Dr. Britt Baker, DMD (who is a dentist) is nowhere near ready in the ring. Quote
El-P Posted November 10, 2019 Report Posted November 10, 2019 Young Bucks opening the PPV ? I bet on them doing a job, again, to establish P&P. They are gonna be the Jushin Liger of AEW... Quote
