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.

I agree, but I assume this is just a once-off.

Who knows though. Because of the Adam Cole connection, we may very well a "Bobby Fish is All Elite" announcement after the show.

CM Punk is really laying it on thick, and has been for weeks now.

This constant sickly sweet love fest has to be planting the seeds for a future heel turn, right?

No. 

Not everyone hates positivity.

Punk just doing The Rock promos from the early 2010s.

LMAO at Jericho besting JDS

 

 

Btw Lambert is great, I don't get why y'all hate him.

[C.S.]

Remind me again why I'm supposed to care about a bunch of absolute nobodies? Just because they're from MMA? Zzz! 

[MoS]

I woke up to Nick Comoroto beating up Darby. That was good. 

Saw the botched Luchasaurus spot. It was funny. Botches don't bother me unless it disrupts the flow of the match, and they used this botch really well. 

Nice to see Dante Martin getting some mic time. Black v. Martin will bang hard.

If we had actually gotten the match, maybe.

So, what is the point of holding up the plaque before she wins her 50th match?

I mean obviously they will not give away the match tonight out of nowhere? They obviously have to build it somewhat. They have invested heavily in Black and see a lot of potential in Martin, they want the match to be more than a random squash.

So Serena can hold it up scornfully when she beats Shida ofc, like a true heel

An angle where Shida loses a bunch before getting her 50th would actually be fun. 

[MoS]

I love Deeb so much. There are very few wrestlers today who make an active effort to be booed when they work heel, and she is one of them.

[The Thread Killer]

The end of that Shida/Deeb match was frickin great.

What happened was even better. Yo, Coach Tony K, since you clearly read PWO, please can you book Darby v. MJF to be a Texas Death Match.

Punk turning into a guy who gives out his Jordans and screams LET'S GOOOOOOOOOO like he's on twitter is bizarre to me. Honestly, I don't give a shit if he's happy and enjoying things, CM Punk without the edge and misery is like when Taz came to the WWF and was a comedy goof instead of miserable little bad ass looking for fights. It's pointless and not enjoyable at all, except Taz at least was able to have an aura that he COULD beat your ass, whereas happy go lucky Punk looks like some random dude you'd see getting boba tea in LA.

[MoS]

Never been a fan of these special AEW ladder matches, they are a cool idea in theory, but they never seem to work out. Hopefully this bucks the trend.

[MoS]

Why does Andrade come out in a dorky mask, like the world's worst tribute to Vader

[Jmare007]

There he is.

[MoS]

Well I guess this was expected, but I am with @El-P I wouldn't have had Hangman's return be the Joker in a multi-man ladder matches. Future Kings don't return as Jokers. His return should have been his own thing, and I actually wouldn't even have brought him back until Omega beat Danielson. It's also sort of killed the match, cuz now the crowd doesn't care about anyone other than Hangman and nothing in the match that is not Hangman winning is capturing their interest.

[Matt D]

If you came on with Punk and Danielson, he’s a brand new debut.

Isn't this how he got his first title shot, or am I misremembering? If so, it's a nice callback.

I’m with you. Multi person ladder matches should be retired for a while.

That's not necessarily a bad thing. Your future champ getting the most attention and the crowd wanting him to get the title shot over anything else is what you should want.

I think you guys are reading too much into it. There's a ton of time until Full Gear so that feud can get momentum again. And at the end of the day, him getting the win will be big anyway, what's important is what they do with him as champ.

I do wonder what's next for Danielson. Is him vs Cole next?
