  1. While most of the guys in the tag title match seem out of sync for the kind of match scheduled; the idea of Montez Ford with a ladder should be incredible. I don't know if there is anyone who gets more hang time than Ford right now. Maybe even more than Ricochet Dream vs Breeze should be the best match of the night in my opinion because you know Tyler wants to prove how good he was in NXT
  2. This was the first show with Beth Phoenix as commentator and while he is definitely more knowledgeable than Percy Watson she doesn't seem to be as involved. Also I wait for Beth to finally talk about Mauro about his constant need to throw hip hop references and say "Nobody knows what you are talking about" Keith Lee is just a great talent but right now he is the poster child for the guy/girl who is stuck because of all the talent currently on the roster. He isn't a lower card guy but he made need a telescope to see the main event level. Again if guys like Lee is stuck in the middle how in the world guys like Shane Strickland and Trevor Lee going to get there. I hate to say but NXT may need a second hour So Jessie isn't playing that overly caffeinated Dudley Girl like before? Can' see how it doesn't have a long shelf life but thought it was really entertaining
  3. Maybe 6 months isn't a good judge of anything but is about how long the UFC on ESPN deal has been. Has their been any signs that it has helped the product? I mean money wise it probably does because they got a huge check from them. But because there is almost nothing on the non ESPN+ channels except PPV prelims I wonder if interest has risen, fallen, or stayed the same.
  4. I mean Nick Mondo did create a movie about himself that was released to a couple places. he had a film degree before he was having people slice his stomach with a weedwacker and falling 25 feet onto a table. So the idea that he couldn't have made that 4 minute video isn't that far-fetched.
  5. So apparently Jonathan Gresham has been working without a contract since April. Given that he is the top trainer at their Dojo and one of the top workers in the company it is just idiotic and typical Ring of Honor in the last couple years. Especially since he has been one of the hottest talents in the indies and currently in New Japan Super Juniors tournament.
  6. So Fox wants their WWE to be more "sports" like while NBC wants their NBC to be more goofy bullshit. Yeah that is going to be a problem if this whole wild card thing is still a thing. Although to be fair the two best (and maybe only) things in the WWE right now is R-Truth and Boombox Brock ?
  7. So the fact that they so awkwardly cut out the AEW reference on the Youtube feeds makes me think that that Sami just said it without it being scripted
  8. i thought you carried the boom box that way because you actually want people to hear this great music. if it is pressed up to your ears it is muffled I believe WWE used to have a little radios at live shows where you could listen to commentary. You know when people actually wanted to listen to that crap unlike now.
  9. Scott Steiner is going to work on a Chikara show. I repeat Scott Steiner is working a Chikara show ?
  10. More interested in whether this is the beginning of the end for Ring of Honor and New Japan. Moxley working New Japan makes me think that maybe that hope he is working GCW shows is becoming slim to none. Although he is working a NEW show against Pentagon so hopefully I am wrong
  11. The length of the title reigns is kind of weird because of how crazy they changed the title in the dying days of the belt. In the first 6 months of the title a month long run wasn't that strange. It looks like Road Dogg had it for 2 months one time. Then near the end you would be lucky if you kept the title for 2 minutes. I mean that Wrestlemania 2000 had at least a dozen title changes in one match In terms of the 24/7 rule yeah R-Truth is probably a week away from the longest run with the title ?
  12. Well luckily fthe WWE is ready for this as they are going to have Ben Shapiro talk about the greatness of the 24/7 title. Once they take it off of R-Truth of course ?
  13. I believe Randy Orton has done the same joke.
  14. Well it seems to have avoided Dustin at least for the most part of his career
  15. So apparently GCW had a unplanned show on Freemont Street last night. Clips of Nick Gage vs Jimmy Lloyd killing each other with light tubes. Teddy Hart and Joey Janela was there as well. The setup is really good so maybe it wasn't as impromptu as we think but the fact you get what looks to be about 200 on a show that begins around 12:30 Vegas time tells you how hot this company is Edit: Apparently there was a show advertised that night under "Fight Capitol Pro Wrestling" . So that explains why the set up looked great.
  16. WCW EVERYBODY ? Hopefully none of this is explained on the broadcast as the confused may be the end of Jim Ross
  17. If we are going to use that standard then I think it is obvious who should win then. Kenta Kobashi ?
  18. This guy plays an asshole so very well. the problem is that I can't tell if he "playing" an asshole or just a fucking jerk. Remember one of their executive VP is a heel. Unless Cody is a terrible good guy. Hey doesn't that sound familiar to wrestling fans
  19. Okay seriously NOW you have to fire Davey Martinez right. I mean that Nats are going to get swept by the Mets. What are they waiting for a sweep by the Marlins
  20. It was really weird to see them talk about a promotion that is so damn different now. I mean you know that tapings were a long time ago when you see FLOSLAM banners all over the place. Funny listening to Fred Yehi talking about how most of the people in front row he saw at shows in his local area were fat white people.
  21. Brandi Rhodes needs to get off of promoting this PPV. Between telling people 'It's going to be the best wrestling show of the entire year, maybe even the entire decade. I might be getting ahead of myself" and saying you are not a real wrestling fan if you are not satisfying with Double or Nothing THAT HASN'T HAPPENED YET, she is keeping the stereotype of AEW fans alive and well.
  22. If you are trying to trying promote AEW as this company with all these different styles, then the match that would emphasize that is Joey Janela vs Darby Allin but Janela is in the battle royal
  23. I am guessing that him being part timer isn't really his choice.
  24. Drake Maverick being the 2019 version of Crash Holly is quite enjoyable. Drake and R-Truth should really hold the title about 25 times in the next 6 months or however long the title exist. Whatever comes first
