You know, looking back at the last run of Orton giving a shit I think I would agree. Also I can't think of bigger culture shock than Okada in Wisconsin.

I just remembered the “phoenix” pronunciation being used before in AEW and I never caught the change until now. (It’s probably been that way for months, but that’s what I get for actually watching Dynamite unmuted for once.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Embrodak Report post Posted June 23 1 hour ago, Blehschmidt said: Except for the part where he is super over and sells a ton of merchandise. So you can take those talking points back to the Cult. Something can be “over” and bad for the overall creative fabric of the show, especially when presented as a credible threat to actual top guys. How is one to take Ospreay as a credible threat for future collabs if he somehow struggles to put away Orange fucking Cassidy? I’m not a fan of the Ezekiel or 24/7 stuff on WWE either, am I getting that from Cornette? I don’t expect Bill Watts levels of fastidiousness in 2022, but “cordon off the postmodern kitsch if you must have it” seems like a pretty basic rule of thumb to presenting a coherent product.

Migs Report post Posted June 23 Orange-Ospreay is going to rule. They're both great. The Danielson stuff was a real bummer, but I think they've roughly made the best of their situation here. Do wish the Bucks had gotten a real match (them against Darby and Hiromu would be insane, for example), but I'm still excited to be going. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

People lose to Toru Yano all the time without losing credibility. The fans take it for what it is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sek69 Report post Posted June 23 Orange has been a solid mid to upper card guy until Keith Lee accidently yeeted him halfway down the aisleway and hurt his shoulder. Toru Yano is usually booked as a lower midcard guy who is extra wily and will sometimes steal wins. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If Hiromu doesn't bring Daryl with him at ringside and Daryl doesn't have his face painted like Sting, are we even tryin'? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
