I just finished watching and I agree with pretty much all of this, except that Stu, Angels, and Uno don't do a whole lot for me and seem fungible with other people already on the roster (I came on to AEW well after Brodie Lee and the Dark Order). Nice to see Chaos Project get some offense in, too. I wanted Blue to go over. Sign Willow Nightengale. Lethal is a very giving wrestler even on the Youtube shows. Wight: "He needs to save his breath to cool off the pie" pause Henry, laughing "That was the most country-ass shit I've ever heard". Mind you, Henry is from deep south country Texas, so when HE'S calling you country.

I'm hoping that they just haven't updated it for Austin yet because none of the Regal Cinemas has it listed yet.

I think almost every AEW match recently has had an apron bump spot of some kind.

That's WAY better. Honestly, if Marshall would go full Heenan and have a better stable with Comoroto as the Hercules I would be all in.

What if this is building to Jade versus Deeb? I mean, I kind of like the idea of "My potential weakness as a wrestler is someone who is going to go mat-based so I need to learn that as well".

Thanks for the info, I would prefer something more pick up and play, and with Omega and other NJPW guys on the box art I was kinda assuming they were in the game as is. Sounds more like a pass for my interest level.

I haven’t played a wrestling video game since WCW vs the World for PS1, but I saw a copy of Fire Pro Wrestling World for PS4 for $25 and thought I’d ask here if it’s worth getting?

Yeah. Or they can do it with Sammy and cue cards during a PiP break.

Ok, I remember Daniels in late WCW. I watched through the bitter end,

Hopefully after the PPV is over and the MJF-Punk and Mox-Danielson stuff is settled we can have less promo time so that they don’t go to PiP every single match. It’s getting worse and worse, usually starts about 2 minutes into a match.

I remember Styles but not Danielson.

Also I’m not supposed to tell y’all this but my wife chanted along with D.M.D. at the end of that segment. But I’m Team Thunder Rosa.

There was a lot to love and some other parts. Opener was hot and what I like about AEW is that Andrade can lose clean, feud with Matt Hardy, and still be a contender. Having Kassidy in the background is going to lead somewhere. Wardlow-Comoroto was unexpectedly amazing, like who woulda thunk that would be a hard fought, evenly matched hoss fight? I loved this match and what happened after. And was that crowd hotter than Dynamite? I said it before but the Deeb challenge has to happen on tape because it’s not over live at all. This can’t go past the PPV, no matter how much we might like it here. I’m with everyone else wondering who is going to be The One. Caster’s rap was not up to standards and yet it had the Danhausen foreshadow. I love Bowens and I wanted him to fully go over. Someday I’ll get to see him win a big singles, or see The Acclaimed win a big tag. I don’t know, this might have been a time for a flash pin or a cheat pin, I’m forgetting stuff but Friday is a drunk night. I’m working out of town Monday through Saturday next week so I’ll have per diem to buy the PPV guilt free.

Looks almost exactly the same still (since he cleaned up)

Huh, I would like to see an Acclaimed and Jade team-up, never even thought about it.

StubHub.

There are affordable tickets, they're just at weird angles in the nosebleed sections, or behind cameras. I paid $48 each for two tickets (can't recall exact face value because of the many many Ticketmaster fees) that were a little lower in the area above the floor. But the prices do jump fairly quickly into triple digits. The Austin show still has a fair number of the $32 and $48 tickets left, while most of the higher dollar tickets are sold.

As one of the newer AEW fans who is someone who turned off wrestling in the early 2000s (including Impact), I'm getting a little tired of some new NXT/WWE guy coming in every week, being sold as someone who I'm supposed to know, and immediately picking up on/recreating a storyline from their old federation. The nice thing about Punk and Danielson is that they didn't try and do that, they came in as legends who were looking to be re-inspired and fighting the newer guys they've been hearing about/following. Even with Keith Lee, he came in to the Face of the Revolution and his first feuds look to be with Team Taz. He knows Starks, but that's it. AEW has a lot of good young talent (and an eye for up-and-coming indie talent) without trying to show Vince and HHH all the guys they misused.

To be clear, my concerns with the anti-Semitic bullying motivation angle are: 1. Wrestling storytelling isn't known for execution of nuance 2. Wrestling plays heavily into stereotypes because they stereotypical wrestling audience is prejudiced. I recognize that AEW is generally a little better at these things, but it's still requiring a lot of faith (pun intended).

I know their basketball coach tried to cover up a murder, but the sheer number of Briles’ covered-up crimes (which extend beyond the dozens of rapes) and total lack of contrition is sociopathic. I won’t spend a dime in Waco or McClennan County since they were complicit as well.

I had forgotten that and now I’m very angry that I now have to remember again.

If you saw his WrestlingClassics Instagram comment, she didn’t teach him the difference between “their” and “there”

I mean, Garcia is basically Lance Storm with a Masshole accent.

how has WWE films not already done that?
