MoS Posted October 6, 2021 Report Posted October 6, 2021 It's the 2-year anniversary of Dynamite!! This promotion looks and feels so different from 2 years ago, even with most of the featured wrestlers then still being featured now. Quote
Stiva Posted October 6, 2021 Report Posted October 6, 2021 I'm going with Hero or Buddy Murphy/Matthews for the Joker. I'm thinking Page's return is going to be it's own self-contained segment. Quote
NintendoLogic Posted October 6, 2021 Report Posted October 6, 2021 In his interview with PWInsider, Coach Tony K promised "one huge announcement on the show." He said it wasn't about the identity of the Joker and that "it's been something a long time coming. I'm very excited about it and proud of it, and it'll really add a lot to the company, I think." So there you go. Quote
El-P Posted October 6, 2021 Report Posted October 6, 2021 Chris Hero as the joker would be really cool. Last time Coach Tony K Promised a huge announcement, it was Christian Cage (much love to him), so hopefully he learned his lesson. Quote
SirEdger Posted October 6, 2021 Report Posted October 6, 2021 Hangman is already trending on Twitter so a lot of people are anticipating he returns tonight. Personally, I'd like Hangman to be the Joker for him to earn his title match vs Kenny Omega. It writes itself. Quote
El-P Posted October 6, 2021 Report Posted October 6, 2021 I don't see Hangman just returning in a multi-men ladder match to earn a shot against Omega. Just doesn't really fit with his storyline and character, which is a long-term, personal relationship based storyline, not "win a clusterfuck ladder match and win the title" kinda stuff. Omega should beat Danielson first, then Hangman shows up and when he defeats Omega, it means even more since there really isn't anyone left. Quote

Christian was one of the top five guys in the Attitude Era. Kassius showed his pale flesh in unsightly basketball shorts on WWE's third-tier grunge 'n skull brand. Quote
C.S. Posted October 6, 2021 Report Posted October 6, 2021 Cody Rhodes: “This will disappoint so many and maybe it won’t, maybe this will excite, but two things I can guarantee you. And I’m not saying this to wave one hand while you’re not looking at the other. I’m telling this from the most honest standpoint, I am not going to turn heel on this company. And I would retire before I did that. Now I’m the head of the community outreach group. I have a little girl now. I’m not going to be doing heel stuff on TV.” “I am not turning heel and I’m not going back on my word to challenge for the title. That stuff was real. It hurts. It is a large regret that that ever happened, but it did happen and I can live with it. And I got to do that dance with Chris Jericho, and I will not go back on that stipulation, me personally. If Tony [Khan] wanted to change things he could. And again, you can never say never in wrestling, but I do think there’s this idea that evil corporate need would turn the stipulation around and challenge for the world title, that I can say never will happen.” https://popculture.com/sports/news/cody-rhodes-aew-reveals-2-things-will-not-do/ Quote
El-P Posted October 6, 2021 Report Posted October 6, 2021 Just now, C.S. said: And you think Kassius Ohno would be less "disappointing"? Oh..kay. The huge announcement is not the Joker in the ladder match. Two different things. Quote

Ah, okay, your post makes more sense then. I thought they were one and the same. Very cool that we have two potentially exciting developments to look forward to. Hopefully Ohno still isn't one of them though. I don't mind if the dude gets a job - I'd be happy for him - but I don't think that's necessarily something worthy of being hyped up. Quote
KawadaSmile Posted October 6, 2021 Report Posted October 6, 2021 Hero would quietly be their TV workhorse, I think. Quote
sek69 Posted October 6, 2021 Report Posted October 6, 2021 Hero would be a good player-coach to help the youngin's still learning on the job. Quote
Steenalized Posted October 6, 2021 Report Posted October 6, 2021 Hero as a big reveal would be flat, Hero as a good hand on the roster would be smart. Quote
gordi Posted October 6, 2021 Report Posted October 6, 2021 Page? Jay White? Steen? Hero? Generico? Cottonbelly? I feel like Bryan and Kenny are the Jumbo and Tenryu of the 8-man tag, so I expect Kenny will avoid him for a while so the crowd can pop huge when they finally lock up. But it's AEW, not AJPW, so who knows how they'll play it? October 6th in America = October 7th here, so this Dynamite birthday celebration feels like it's for my birthday as well. Going for lunch with my wife as soon as the show is over. Not a bad way to start my 56th year! Quote
sek69 Posted October 6, 2021 Report Posted October 6, 2021 I hope people remember Steen/Generico won't be options until next year at the soonest. Quote
C.S. Posted October 7, 2021 Report Posted October 7, 2021 Buck botched that spike piledriver. And now they're doing an injury angle for something that looked so bad! Quote
C.S. Posted October 7, 2021 Report Posted October 7, 2021 Fun schmoz. I hope Christian isn't legitimately injured, though I can't see how. Quote
joeg Posted October 7, 2021 Report Posted October 7, 2021 I like Bobby Fish, but they've got 30 guys just like him. Even with all the additions the past year, their roster is still full of short guys who can work but don't have a lot of personality. Doesn't make sense to add another. Quote
El Dragon Posted October 7, 2021 Report Posted October 7, 2021 That entire match felt kind of like a miss that shouldn't have been a miss at all. I find Omega when working with the Bucks and Cole to be the worst version of himself, and that match kind of illustrated that point. Quote
sek69 Posted October 7, 2021 Report Posted October 7, 2021 Good job by Kenny doing his best to make sure Luchasaurus didn't die from that triple powerbomb spot. Quote
