AEW TV 9/4-9/10 (Just want to comment on the Swerve childhood home buying vid)

I believe in TK to see through that social media video leading to Hangman setting that house on fire in the next 4 days.

Lmao it actually happened. Can not imagine the insanity they'll get up to try to top their Texas Death Match.

That was a perfect angle to close out the show. Hangman's derange cowboy gimmick has been such a home run, I went from not giving a single fuck about him to looking forward to what his hating ass is gonna do next.

Swerve better win though! I don't give a damn about Page still not having a W over him!

 

Also, we need more Mark Briscoe, every hyped promo he cuts is gem.

Interesting how being paired up with MJF for like a month or so  has made Daniel Garcia seem like a much bigger deal than the years he was stuck with Jericho.

I was on the phone watching the end of Dynamite with no sound.

Hangman is nuts. I was wondering why Swerve just didn’t call the police but I guess he will dish out his own brand of justice. Hangman trying to burn down the block! Ha!

I also HATED that trios match main event! It’s everything I hate about pro wrestling. It was just a tumbling exhibition. Guys were making faces and The Elite were wearing stupid outfits. What’s crazy is they have an insanely talented roster. They just continue to make the choice to do dumb stuff.

At least Swerve and Hangman will have some good old fashioned hate. I like the evil Magnum TA gimmick Hangman is pulling off.

[Stiva]

Part of me knows I shouldn’t like that final angle but it all worked perfectly. The imagery of Hangman toasting himself looked incredible and it’s far more palatable when it’s come after a year long blood feud. 

[Coffey]

Being completely honest, that Hangman/Swerve angle was the best I've seen in awhile. Part of it is because I fell for that shit. Nana & Swerve buying the house felt like a real, genuine moment because I've seen multiple pro athletes in other areas of sport do the same thing previously. Obviously I've seen something similar in wrestling before, like when Orton/Wyatt did it but I didn't see this one coming because it was well done. Almost maybe because I'm not a weekly viewer & consume a lot of my wrestling content nowadays via clips but yeah, well done. Good shit.

I can not imagine the insanity those two will get up to at All Out, but it definitely should be the main event and it should make us all question what the fuck we're watching like some disgusting early 00s Japanese shindy deathmatch promotion.

Swerve introducing his childhood home out of the blue was an obvious angle alert, but there's nothing wrong with that if it's done well. And it was a pretty great angle in isolation. However, it highlighted one of my biggest issues with modern wrestling. Swerve being presented as sympathetic so soon after trying to cripple Bryan Danielson in front of his family is too much mood whiplash for me. The idea of wrestlers as empty vessels who simply fill whatever role a particular show calls for is something I will never accept.

i liked how hangman just had a phone on a selfie stick to film.

[MoS]

Hangman is awesome and I am so happy to see him finally get his flowers.

Hangman's title reign > MJF's title reign
