funkdoc Posted March 24, 2022 Report Share Posted March 24, 2022 The first half would've made for a great 1-hour Dynamite. Rare case where i have to say "shame it's a 2-hour show" Really i wish all Lambert promos were just him flexing his wrestling-history nerd chops, that's when he's at his best by far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sek69 Posted March 24, 2022 Report Share Posted March 24, 2022 Then again, Brodie did smash the belt into a million pieces over Cody's head, so it's not like he was someone who felt that a title belt is sacred. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KawadaSmile Posted March 24, 2022 Report Share Posted March 24, 2022 Bottom line is that sanctity of the TNT Belt aside, all of this is making Sammy look like a massive, massive prick. MJF had to try so fucking hard to get to that level and it just comes off so naturally to Sammy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesse Ewiak Posted March 24, 2022 Report Share Posted March 24, 2022 The hilarious thing to me is the faux concern so many people had for Sammy & Tay's previous privacy only a couple of months ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoS Posted March 24, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2022 That particular belt was retired and given to Brodie's son. I don't think the TNT championship is supposed to be a stand-in for Brodie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perfectly Straightedge Posted March 24, 2022 Report Share Posted March 24, 2022 What a horrible segment though. I could care less about the line. I mean probably a big hit for the younger generation who thinks that’s a slam dunk but I just didn’t buy the line. I thought it was a big swing and a miss. I mean what a great way to build the prestige of the championship by ejaculating on it. I mean if we needed anymore reason to think Sammy was the worst TNT champion. The whole segment just seemed randomly tossed together. It didn’t accomplish anything and nobody got over from it. It’s getting clicks from Twitter but most are complaining about the legacy thing. Which I mean I get especially when AEW tries to portray themselves as the titles mean something here and yet you got a 2 time champ saying he ejaculated all over it. I mean yeah….totally puts the title over. The whole Sammy/Tay thing is a horrible combo on camera. Off camera I don’t give a shit what they do cause they are consenting adults but on camera. It’s just bad television. Sammy should just be a heel. He is a terrible baby face. I could never get myself to cheer for him just cause he comes across as a natural heel. Tay is whatever and just like there. I was hoping once Cody left that this whole couples on camera thing would be over but here we go again. Ugh! I already can’t wait for this story to be over.

MoS Posted March 24, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2022 Yeah it wasn't a good segment. Dan Lambert actually was the best part of the segment, and he was hardly great. Catching up on the show and Punk-FTR Bald was an excellent excellent match. I am so happy CM Punk has come back to pro wrestling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

strobogo Posted March 24, 2022 Report Share Posted March 24, 2022 This Sammy/Tay thing sucks on screen. Sammy is such an unlikable dude, and it makes Tay less likeable by extension. Eventually they might make a good heel power couple, but it's never going to work with Sammy as a face. I have to imagine Sammy/Tay is a replacement for Cody/Brandi in this angle, which is also lol.

Gramsci Posted March 24, 2022 Report Share Posted March 24, 2022 I didn't enjoy this Dynamite as much as the previous ones. I feel like storylines aren't moving far forward, but this falls into the usual cycle after a PPV. I hope they are preparing a special show like Blood and Guts for Hangman and Cole to finally finish their story plus the WARGAMES between JAS vs Kingston and LAX, so we can move on to better things like Punk chasing Hangman's world championship. I'm not feeling at all the Danielson and Mox tag team, I like the idea and I love seeing Bryan and Regal togheter (that's some fantasy booking), but I'm not interested to see them as a team, I'd prefer them to wrestle individually and be part of a much larger stable. Also, Regal as his mentor should tell Bryan to cut his hair. And yes, the Lambert/Sammy/Tay segment was horrible and I agree with all said. I like Conti as a wrestler, but I don't think she's likeable either, I don't understand some of his facial expressions. His relationship with Sammy on screen (I also don't care for their "private live") is really annoying, and not because they are handsome, because they're not, at least by south European standards they are regular people.

MoS Posted March 24, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2022 So I know I said that I was actually surprised by how above-average Cole-Lethal was, given how mid both of them are, but having watched the first hour, which was some of the best wrestling TV that's been put on so far this year, I retract my opinion. Watching the match live must have veen a flat experience. Also, Sting and Darby HAVE to get a title shot soon, don't they? They were arguably the US tag team of the year for 2021, and 2022 if anything has been better for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoS Posted March 24, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2022 You all can hate on Jericho's latest faction if you wish, but it is really putting a spotlight on Danny Garcia and letting him showcase his charisma and personality, and it's undoubtedly worth it for that reason alone. TK clearly sees something in him, as he should. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flyin' Brian Posted March 24, 2022 Report Share Posted March 24, 2022 I like Sammy, but this booking is not doing him any favors as a babyface. Maybe it's just him, but the 'I don't care about the title' attitude and the stuff with him and Tay just fits a heel more. Enjoying Mox and Dragon together with Regal, definitely would look forward to match vs Sting/Darby. AEW has enough tag teams that I wonder if it would be worth it to have a lower tier tag title like the U.S. Tag Team Championships NWA/WCW had? Or maybe some of them are moving over to ROH. I have no idea what is supposed to be going on with Julia Hart. Thought maybe she was going to join up with Black's group but that feud is over. She's still wearing the eye patch and looked bored while the match was going on. I really hope they don't have Windham Rotunda show up and make her his new Alexa. I enjoyed Lethal/Cole, but I've liked Lethal since his Impact days. FTR after firing Tully are definitely turning face now. Lots of good matchups for them. Hopefully they start getting featured more. Another team that maybe having another tag team title or moving to ROH would help as far as giving them a showcase. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
