They ran an Eddie Gilbert tribute at the 2300 and guess who was there ? Old Stinger indeed. Hopefully some of that ends up on their Youtube channel. That's pretty cool because it feels like Eddie Gilbert in Philly, which basically set the basis for what ECW was gonna become, is often overlooked/forgotten about.

Sting mentioned he wanted to be a part of it since Eddie was the first one to see something in him more than just a gimmick tag team guy. I'd wager that was probably a big part of him doing all  the stuff with Darby on his last run as a way of paying it forward. 

Also it's being heavily rumored the Big Announcement on Dynamite is going to be women's tag titles finally debuting. Tony had the belts made a while ago and injuries kept derailing whatever plans he had for them.

Toni dropping the World title so she can be first Women’s Tag Champs with Mina makes sense too

Yeah, that's what fully expect. The multi-woman tags with identifiable tag teams lately (Penelope & Megan, Sky & Julia, TayJay) made it clear they were finally go into that direction. More matches and experience is better for everyone.

OC coming back is awesome. I sure have missed him.

I remember Meltzer mentioning a few weeks back that if Britt Baker wasn't at that show in her hometown, it pretty much would mean she's not coming back.

And Women tag titles it is. Long overdue, really, but all things considered, they come at a good time.

Loved the closing angle. Stat flipping off Mox was one bad-ass move. Yuta's bump was beautiful. It's nice when things take their time to build to something that is not evident (I was 50/50, although I kinda saw it coming still). Mox vs Darby I Quit will be yet another fucked up match. Say what you want about Mox, he's having a career year in term of actually delivering blood matches and meaningful ones to boot. Basically only Cope dragged his ass down to mediocrity (until Mox choose to get all fakir and shit)

Fun episode. Nothing fancy, just solid good wrestling all around. So cool to have Orange back. The tag team title match built nicely. GOA are improving, Leona has shitload of potentials still. FTR/Stokely heel pairing is really over-delivering. No idea where they go from there, although the quickest they move on from the Copeverse, the better.

Hey, where is Ace Austin ? Hopefully he's getting in the mix soon.

Fletcher vs Hologram ? I say yeah. I'm guessing Hologram is getting screwed by El Clon.

(seems like Tweets on screen are thankfully gone already. Well THANKS!)

If those All Out buys are true, this counter-programming thingy has been a miserable failure, including ESPN giving a shit evaluation to their *own* show. Maybe this ridiculousness will cease now, because WWE have been embarrassing themselves twice in a row now (I mean, with the counter-programming, not that they aren't embarrassing on the wider scale of course).

Meanwhile, Mina Shirakawa, Thekla, Julia Hart & Skye Blu are booked for the CMLL Grand Prix de Amazonas. The CMLL partnership is the gift that keeps on giving.

That's awesome! I love Skye and Julia, and they should be out getting in all the reps they can.
