I know Coach Tony hates non-finishes but you HAVE to do it with Kingston/Punk. 

[El-P]

That line-up is sick. Just sick. Something for everyone. Great matches galore on paper. And the perspective of what it can open following it up is mind expanding. I would watch it live if I wasn't feeling sleepy before midnight these days. Gonna make a gloomy Sunday a perfect day, hopefully.

[sek69]

Eddie/Punk just screams the type of feud needing a Tupelo Concession Stand Brawl kind of match at some point. Both as a shout out to Eddie's days marking out over Memphis tapes and because of how heated it became. 

[C.S.]

Any idea if FiteTV is going to carry Full Gear in the U.S.? Right now, all signs point to no. But it was a last-minute day-of thing for All Out, so I'm hoping for the best. I don't really want to deal with B/R, or have they improved?

Edit: No PayPal option for B/R... Really?! I hate sites stuck in the '90s. Plus, you only have access to the show for three days. I believe it remains in your account with Fite. AEW's deal with B/R cannot end soon enough!

[MoS]

So, we have discussed this before, but what do we think: can the Hangman coronation be delayed longer? I think, after the kind of promos he has cut, and the video packages made, they can't afford to not pull the trigger now. He has a very loyal fanbase, but even they might not be able to take another heartbreaking loss. I think he has to win now.

Not a chance in hell.

[sek69]

It seems pretty obvious by listening to Tony that Page was penciled in to win the title at the last PPV before he took time off for his kid. That ended up working better than they could have hoped for since they had Punk/Bryan/Cole all coming and and that would have overshadowed the big win. Now the focus will be entirely on Page for the main event.

Yeop. With Fite, once you purchased it, it's yours for life.

[Perfectly Straightedge]

B/R is weird. I bought Double or Nothing and All Out and I still have both of them and was able to watch both and still can. So the three-day thing throws me off as well.

Yeah, I think now is the time. Especially if AEW wants to differentiate themselves from WWE. They have to pull the trigger tonight. It would be a huge letdown not to. Since they actually treat PPV as a big deal and charge full price for them, you have to have the big win tonight then a celebration on Dynamite.

I still hope TK does it the way I booked it in my brain:  Kenny and Page have a banger of a match, Page looks to have it wrapped up, the Elite come out to interfere but get intercepted by the Dark Order, Page wins and they do the Mick Foley/DX celebration with Hangman on the Dark Order's shoulders holding the belt. 

[sek69]

Oh yeah, do any of you think that The Artist Formerly Known As Bray Wyatt will make an appearance? His non compete is up so there's nothing legally barring it from happening. 

[Stiva]

I would say he might but I can’t see a place where he fits. Unless they need one more person in the Cody/Black/Pac/Andrade hodge-podge.

I think this show is going to be great though and I’m annoyed that I’m probably not going to see any of it until tomorrow afternoon at the earliest. Avoiding spoilers is going to be a nightmare

Dark Order holding Page on their shoulders is how I booked it nearly a year ago, ha.

That’s what I was picturing in my head too. 

[Coffey]

AEW is the first wrestling promotion since ECW where I actually want to support them. Goodwill toward the fans goes a long way.

I've purchased some other PPVs since ECW obviously but the majority of AEW PPVs thus far have been must-see TV.

Punk/Kingston will be interesting to me because I feel like everything that those two do the best happens outside of the bell-to-bell parts of wrestling. I'm really excited for FTR Vs. Lucha Bros. I think Danielson/Miro might be MOTN but I'm not writing off Page/Omega.

I'm ready for Jericho to leave.

[sek69]

I love everyone trying to get Dante Martin to join their squad because he's so fucking great. 

[joeg]

B/R is a pain in the ass.... the log in I used for the last PPV is now inactive and its not allowing me to sign up, fuck it I guess I'm watching basketball tonight 

[sek69]

I'm watching the show fine, but my provider won't allow me to record it on my DVR (I still have the last PPV on there with no issue). Annoying, but to be honest I really don't ever go back and watch these shows after the fact that much anyway. 

[sek69]

Jeez, just realized seeing Vicki out there that not only is it the anniversary of Eddie's death but they are in the same city it happened in. 

[sek69]

Also Orange promising to bring in one of his dogs seems to indicate an Iishi appearance.

[MoS]

That Darby video package was incredible 

[joeg]

finally got it ordered

[MoS]

Well I was not expecting Eddielenko sequences in this match

[Johnny Sorrow]

Ha, JR called them the Four Pillows.
