Timbo Slice Posted March 22, 2023 Report Posted March 22, 2023 But the Jacksons don’t do politics well, not at all.
C.S. Posted March 23, 2023 Report Posted March 23, 2023 7 minutes ago, KawadaSmile said: What exactly am I missing? The reality show supposedly has footage that "wrestling fans will be analyzing like the Zapruder tape" - some source on Twitter whose name I've already forgotten. (I mean that legitimately, not dismissively - I genuinely can't remember who tweeted it.) As for Bucks and politics, no idea. Hopefully not U.S. politics.
Jmare007 Posted March 23, 2023 Report Posted March 23, 2023 Just checked the main event and those last 10 minute were exactly what I wanted (well, Kenny being very close to dying by landing on his neck wasn't expected but it seemed he came out of it OK). The ending angle did nothing for me but I've never been the audience of this Hangman/Elite story. Has Mox explained why he's so hell bent on beating up The Elite though? legit question.
sek69 Posted March 23, 2023 Report Posted March 23, 2023 Watching now, and they really seem to be leaning into the "everyone thinks FTR is leaving" deal.

sek69 Posted March 23, 2023 Report Posted March 23, 2023 AEW needs a hot babyface, and Adam Cole just might be that guy.
sek69 Posted March 23, 2023 Report Posted March 23, 2023 I can't stop noticing it looks like he's wearing one of Britt's hair ties.
sek69 Posted March 23, 2023 Report Posted March 23, 2023 Vikingo coming out with the AAA Mega Title seems to settle if the beef was squashed between the companies.
sek69 Posted March 23, 2023 Report Posted March 23, 2023 I love when top lucha guys get to do all their crazy shit in front of a crowd that's never seen them before.
sek69 Posted March 23, 2023 Report Posted March 23, 2023 Man, the rematch at Triplemania is going to be fucking bonkers.
TimCooke Posted March 23, 2023 Report Posted March 23, 2023 Main event was very good. Pretty sure it's not transcendent but I thought Vikingo looked as good as anyone making their debut in a big promotion.
strobogo Posted March 24, 2023 Report Posted March 24, 2023 Vikingo is a fucking alien. Sting doing OC spots was such a delight.
The Man in Blak Posted March 28, 2023 Report Posted March 28, 2023 I feel like I need to read that four more times to actually understand what's being said, but yeah, the main event was a success. I agree with what Phil Schneider wrote at the Ringer: this was basically 2023's version of Rey Mysterio Jr. vs. Psicosis debuting on ECW. It may not have been a five-star classic, but it definitely turned some heads and did a great job of introducing Vikingo to a larger North American audience.
The Thread Killer Posted March 28, 2023 Report Posted March 28, 2023 El Hijo del Vikingo is scheduled to defend his AAA Mega Championship against Kommander this Friday at Supercard of Honor as well. Should be interesting. I know it has gotten zero interest and discussion here at PWO, but the new weekly ROH show on the Honor Club streaming service has been outstanding so far. They have done a great build up to the PPV this weekend. I am especially looking forward to Claudio vs. Eddie Kingston for the ROH World Title, and Joe vs. Mark Briscoe for the TV Title. Plus Yuta is defending the Pure Title against Shibata from New Japan and there is a 5 Way Ladder Match to crown new Tag Champs. Even the build for the 6 Man Title match has been great, even though it will involve Brian Cage. At least that will be counter balanced by Metalik. I asked @Loss to add a new ROH subforum to the AEW folder here because I will likely recap the weekly shows going forward for the Tony Khan era ROH. It’s good shit, pal.

Vikingo is doing crazy shit that 99% of viewers just haven't seen - and that 99% of wrestlers aren't able to do. He is that awesome.
rovert Posted March 28, 2023 Report Posted March 28, 2023 10 hours ago, MoS said: Vikingo for world champ Wade Keller got the minute by minutes. The last three minutes of the Omega/Vikingo match was the best rated thing on the show. FTR's entrance and Adam Cole's interview where among the best rated things on the show. Althought Cole's interview tapered off (blame Garcia ha!). The Four Pillars video package was the worst performing thing. Why AEW don't do video packages.
