MoS Posted September 23, 2021 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2021 Black looked great but Cody is just so unlikeable, with zero self-awareness. I hope that's the reason he turns heel, not cuz Black "poured the corruption into him" or some dorky Fiend-like shit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cody is one of the top workers in AEW now though. Even you can't deny that, Bubba, as much as you may want to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flyin' Brian Posted September 23, 2021 Report Share Posted September 23, 2021 With this few matches the Picture in Picture really is obnoxious tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt D Posted September 23, 2021 Report Share Posted September 23, 2021 FTR were having the time of their life feeding for Sting. It's fun how Darby uses his own body as a weapon. Have they ever had him face Serpentico who is used by others as a weapon? I'd watch that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They clearly backloaded the commercials and let Bryan and Omega wrestle largely commercial free. Man Sting looks GOOD. This is also the first time FTR seem truly motivated since War Games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KawadaSmile Posted September 23, 2021 Report Share Posted September 23, 2021 Sting is a big dude and was always in decent shape but no fucking way this dude is over 60. Jesus Christ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jmare007 Posted September 23, 2021 Report Share Posted September 23, 2021 yo, Sting looks and moves 10 years longer, wtf. Tony found the fountain of youth?? This is shit blowing my mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flyin' Brian Posted September 23, 2021 Report Share Posted September 23, 2021 I love Sting showing his veteran smarts. That was awesome him putting on the brakes before Stinger splashing the chair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.S. Posted September 23, 2021 Report Share Posted September 23, 2021 This match was a showcase for Sting instead of Darby, which I question, but damn that was fun. FTR is super-underrated, even when we all know how great they are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoS Posted September 23, 2021 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2021 Genuinely the best FTR match in AEW imo. Better than that comically overrated Young Bucks match Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sek69 Posted September 23, 2021 Report Share Posted September 23, 2021 Sting clearly is having as much fun in there as everyone else is working with him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KawadaSmile Posted September 23, 2021 Report Share Posted September 23, 2021 It's not just "hey he's looking good for his age", but the whole match is centered around him. Just amazing to see. Basically he carried the whole damn match on his back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loved the hot tag to Sting in this one, and the finishing stretch after tags no longer were part of the tag match was too long but incredibly creative and really featured Sting in the best way.

Disagree. Thought he looked great both flying around and pinballing, and that sick apron coffin drop is the best way to showcase Darby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KawadaSmile Posted September 23, 2021 Report Share Posted September 23, 2021 The good outweighted the bad because the good was excellent. Only having the Women's Title match to go makes me wonder if they are going to change the title or just go long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteF3 Posted September 23, 2021 Report Share Posted September 23, 2021 Maybe it's just that my expectations weren't high but that was a full-on 4* tag match. I thought it was fucking awesome and Sting looked so good that I may just consider him a worthy WON HOFer after all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flyin' Brian Posted September 23, 2021 Report Share Posted September 23, 2021 Oh, Mox and Kingston vs Archer and Suzuki is Friday. My bad, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strobogo Posted September 23, 2021 Report Share Posted September 23, 2021 Hope sometime they actually do the coffin scorpion death drop, because that's a great team finish I hadn't even considered. It's amazing how great Sting has looked in comparison to Flair/Hogan/Taker/Golberg at younger ages. Granted he's handled a million times better and put into positions to look as good as possible and has more than held up his end of the bargain every time he's been in the ring for AEW.
