AEW Dynamite - December 15, 2021 - Winter is Coming

[sek69]

I usually hate the idea of fuck finishes, but it would give Bryan the ammo to be even more of an asshole so I kinda like that idea.

[Matt D]

I love how they built up to that first chop to the point that it drew a chant once he got it.

[Timbo Slice]

You have to have a definitive finish here: because it’s either you make Danielson an unstoppable force, or you mint Page, and I think you have to mint Page, because it seems like you go that, have MJF beat Punk, and then set up that title match. 

[MoS]

Both these wrestlers have brought their best game tonight 

[Timbo Slice]

The pace has been perfect throughout. Danielson capitalizing on Hangman’s mistakes so quickly, Page getting on his rolls, Danielson being deliberate while being in control, and this stretch has been exquisite. 

[MoS]

They are just telling the perfect story of Bryan and his veteran savvy and technical mastery versus Hangman and his inexperienced in-your-face bluster and smashmouth style. And now some colour as well. Nice.

[Timbo Slice]

Page tapped a goddamn gusher, good lord.

[Sean Reedy]

I don't have words for Bryan anymore. I hope he's inspiring young future wrestlers right now.

[Timbo Slice]

For all the heel performances Kenny had this year, this is shitting all over the compendium of them all. Just a complete an utter master class. 

[MoS]

This has transcended a normal high level world title match. This truly feels like an elevated classic right now

[Matt D]

The app died on me a bunch so while I'm back, I don't have a great sense of this one as a whole anymore and I'll have to double back later.

[MoS]

What a clever transition. I am loving this match so much

[Timbo Slice]

This is the type of match that erases volume for me. A match that makes a year on its own. 

[MoS]

I feel bad for those of you who don't get the international Fite feed. In the last commercial break, Danielson was just doing jumping jacks and flexing in the ring, and the heat he was getting for it was incredible 

[Timbo Slice]

Yeah, when Tony starts the streaming service, the international feed gonna be worth it alone for some of these TV matches, man. 

[Blehschmidt]

This match has been stellar so far, but my god the referee constantly checking on everyone is my least favorite part of modern wrestling.

I understand it's for the safety of the performers and I don't want anyone to get hurt, but it's so fucking distracting. I miss the days when you only noticed the referee when he was counting or there was an angle happening.

[Jmare007]

This commercial break is killing me! I hope Adderall Man gives us the full version of this match on youtube.

A couple of breaks ago, with the break that started with the abdominal stretch and ended with the surfboard, I was thinking it was a shame and that the match probably lost some buzz since they had to work for the commercial but then when we came back, the crowd was absolutely buzzing for the hold and that's when Page hit that belly to back and it was like nothing at all was lost.

[Timbo Slice]

This motherfucker REOPENED THE CUT IN A SUBMISSION. GOOD LORD.

Greatest of all time

Bryan is a coward if he doesn't enter BOLA

[C.S.]

Wish Tony K had paid for no commercials - they're really breaking up the momentum of an otherwise awesome match.

[Timbo Slice]

Man, this really is playing to a draw, which doesn’t help either guy in a booking sense.

This too. You have to know how special this is and pay up front. 

[MoS]

Love the callback to the Omega table spot at Full Gear, and how it backfired on Page this tkme. Love Bryan getting genuine boos.  This is awesome
