AEW TV - August 3/5, 2022

[MoS]

Urgh, Christian v. MATT HARDY. Hope the latter gets squashed and killed. He has had way too many favourable booking results for me to be sure though. He is a channel-changer for me.

[Timbo Slice]

Jungle Boy interferes to get Matt his win back. 
 

Not a lot doing it for me this week. 

[KawadaSmile]

Matt Hardy in a plain singles match does not seem like good television. 

[WingedEagle]

Tonight's lineup looks like the weakest they've presented in quite some time.  Barring some sort of major angle with the Undisputed Elite or Moxley I'm not sure what the hook is for 2 hours.

[sek69]

I do get the sense some sort of angle is imminent. 

[WingedEagle]

An Omega return certainly seems imminent but it seems as though they've learned their lesson about promoting those returns rather than using them as surprises.  But we shall see.

[Timbo Slice]

Omega’s return is as simple as the Bucks wanting in to the tourney and then saying they have a third in mind. Next week? Boom. Omega. 

[sek69]

I still don't get it but I love how fucking over Orange is. 

[sek69]

lol two guys in a trenchcoat vs a giant is money

[Blehschmidt]

Cassidy doing a job to the bland, heatless sex pest is quite a choice to open the show.

 

[sek69]

Story time, with PWO's favorite wrestler BAY BAY!

[sek69]

Realizing I may have been taking my deep seated frustrations at also being a guy who also has a beard several shades naturally lighter than my hair out on Kyle.

I feel I must state for the record I am not Adam Cole.

[sek69]

Rosa doing Toni Storm's gimmick better than Toni does. 

[Flyin' Brian]

It’s surprising to me that Christian is older than Matt Hardy. 
 

Current Matt Hardy looks like he would be a flunky in a backwoods stable like the Wyatt Family. 

[sek69]

Daniel Garcia is money, it's amazing he's been the best at the SPORTS ENNERTAINMENT stuff too. 

[Blehschmidt]

Every week it seems like there is a different guy front row, center with either Cornette signs or a Cornette t-shirt (or both) who spends the whole show looking like he hates everything he is watching.

I just can't fathom spending the amount of money that a front row ticket costs to "troll" the show or whatever it is they think they are doing. 

I mean, how fucking stupid do you have to be to drop a couple hundred bucks on something you hate? Morons.

[sek69]

So Stokely has recruited Lee Moriarity and Ethan Page. I don't know where this is going but I like it already.

I feel your pain. 

And when it goes grey, you'll have three shades to contend with instead of just two.

[Timbo Slice]

There was a Battlebots commercial tonight, congrats to TK on getting the TNN deal. 

[Dav'oh]

I can never find reason to cheer or boo Wheeler Yuta. Outside of wrestling skill, there's just nothing there.

[funkdoc]

Overall this has been a much better show than i expected given how weak the card looked on paper, Jay Lethal winning aside

Maybe the "RAW making them step up" narrative could have some truth to it

[sek69]

Lethal winning makes sense since he's facing Wardlow next.

I like underdog Yuta. Against someone like Mox or Jericho I like him a lot more than as Pure Champion.
