AEW TV Megathread

Renee had a rough night between Mark Briscoe and the MJF stuff !

Oh yeah, re-run Mark Briscoe vs Ciampa, why the hell not.

That Stadium Stampede is probably gonna be the best use of the Hurt Syndicate too. Also, think about how David Finlay would be where EVIL is right now if he signed for *less money*, learning how to "adapt to the WWE style". Yeah, screw that, he's in Stadium Stampede.

Sammy Guevara sure made the most out of his Collision appearance. Ok, it's time to get him back as a regular, there's no reason not to. He's way too good to be forgotten about. He's a great in-ring worker, he's insane, he's good on promos and he's a heat magnet. The equation with Sammy is simple, he just has to be a douchy heel. I hope the fact Tay Melo seems to be back too is an indication this will be the case. TayJay is certainly the best use of them now, plus they really are the original AEW women tag team, so they fit the current landscape. Not saying they have to win the titles, although it could be a nice feel-good story at one point.

Speedball next ? Yeah, we did not deserve that Darby title reign.

Hey, an Allie Katch sighting.

Foley in AEW just feels right. Nice to see them announcing it like that too.

(Schiavone and Cactus working together again. How crazy, and cool, is that ? Butts in the seats for sure !)

That Tommaso Ciampa vs. Mark Briscoe Anything Goes match was wild as hell.

Willow getting hurt sucks, it's like being a top woman in AEW is cursed at this point.

It's crazy the top three women in the division are all out of action right now for various reasons.

We can only hope Mercedes is gonna come back soon.

[El-P]

Yeah, that sucks for Willow, she was on such a good run. Also, I would think she was one of the favorites to win the thing. 

Maybe this actually opens the slot for Mercedes as the X factor, since they have to pivot in probably a major way, unless Alex Windsor is winning the thing, which I doubt (I think the match is Brawling Birds vs Divine Dominion).

Some ridiculous stuff in those three hours. Briscoe vs Ciampa was legit AEW PPV level material. Darby vs Speedball was a terrific TV sprint title match, with plenty of great ideas that really took advantage of both man's games. And they actually are going above an beyond to sell the stip and the idea that MJF might lose. Ospreay vs Shibata, again, great match and awesome promo to sell the importance of the Owen and the beginning of his journey toward Wembley. PLEASE don't get hurt Will.

The plug for the ESPN article on Darby was quite funny.
