My personal opinion is one of that if they take the belt off of Hangman and put it onto Punk, it will be the first time I genuinely disliked an AEW booking decision. I'm not sure if im in the minority, but while Punk being back has been great, i feel like it's just the same thing over and over. I enjoy the matches, everything he's in, but it really has stopped "moving the needle for me" at all.

I might be in the minority, but I want Hangman to go over Punk clean as a sheet. I feel like Hangmans reign needs more title defenses with top talent and Danielson AND Punk putting him over would go a long way. That being said, if Punk wins, i would love to see MJF take it in the trilogy OR have it lead to Kingston getting a title run, even if it's only a Tommy Dreamer-esque one day or 20 minute reign. I equate Kingston with Dreamer in that I feel Dreamer was the heart of ECW the way Kingston is the heart of AEW.

I dont have many thoughts that haven't been stated here, but let me tell you, I had an absolute BLAST at my first AEW show. My best friend and I have been going to wrestling shows for the past 20+ years but this was the first one we've gone together to in about 4(Last one was a CZW Cage of Death a few years back). It was just a great time. The Liacouras Center is a perfect "in-between" of rec centers, bingo halls and gyms and big stadium WWE shows. I was a bit letdown by the merch table. I had wanted to get my daughter something, anything Shida or Thunder Rosa, but didn't see anything and I myself was a bit sad I couldn't have picked up a Kingston shirt. Funniest thing that was for either the Dark/Elevation taping Also (Rampage) I'm not a huge Guevara fan, but the roof blew off with how much the crowd was against him and it made Scorp winning even better. This show sold me that I need to do absolutely EVERYTHING i can to get to Forbidden Door in Chicago. I don't have 4 weeks vacation for nothing.

JLowe, I live in Abington/Glenside area as well. This is a really good area.

I had to make sure I was there for this as well! It will be my first AEW show.

Really looking forward to Hangman/Punk.....as long as Hangman goes over.

I need to update my AEW Best of Lists, but man,and it might be bias of just seeing it, Joe v Suzuki is going on it without a shadow of a doubt, the only question is how high. That was everything I wanted from that match.

I was thinking more of Pesci in the cornfield at the end of Casino.

I do surveillance, am a Private Investigator and I can't endorse this statement enough. AC is real trashy outside of a few select blocks.

Hanging out with the cast of Justified would be entertaining, rife with bourbon and just as likely to end with a bullet or in jail.....but a conversation with Boyd Crowder might tip the ride in it's favor, haha.

I had a close friend in high school die of literally the exact same thing....fuck, my heart goes out to his family.

I'm still hoping Velvet is Jade's first loss to pay that storyline back.

The sheer amount of quality wrestling given to us on a week to week basis is mind-blowing to me still. Maybe it's because I'm still, even after a few years of AEW, getting past the WWE model of endless PPV's, mindless drivel TV shows, but man, i look forward to the cards weekly and I'd make a strong wager that every show, every week has a dream match for someone watching. IT's awesome.

I'm probably in the minority on this, but I'd really like to see Trent win.

I still maintain my assertion that Walter had to have kicked someone's puppy.....

I love AEW. That's all.

All I can say regarding both stories is....the wrestling business can be an absolute mess and chew people up and spit them out.

Oof. Yeah, that sounds like a clusterfuck that's not going to end well for anyone.

Cardona's run has been one of my favorite things about wrestling in the past few years. I'm not sure I'd want him to stop and go back to WWE. Cody I could understand, but Cardona is one that seems to just be better off all around.

I wasn't sure where to put this. https://www.sportskeeda.com/wwe/news-wwe-s-nash-carter-s-alleged-abuse-surfaces-kimber-lee-posts-pictures-proof

Full disclosure, the scathing reviews, endless jokes/memes have made me go from completely apathetic about this movie to wanting to see it out of a morbid curiosity. I wonder if this is a new marketing scheme.

I'm from Philadelphia and I am NOT a Howie fan, especially when it comes to his horrible drafting track record in Rounds 1-3.....but this is REAL impressive.

Even though I fell asleep before Roman/Lesnar, I feel confident in saying that Lynch/Belair and Rhodes/Rollins were the best matches of Mania. I enjoyed AJ/Edge, but man, that ending killed it for me. It was just lame as hell and Priest is one of those guys who I still can't wrap my head around whether I like them or not. The Knoxville/Zayn match was ridiculous is the best possible way and I enjoyed every second of it. My buddy sent me this when the Knoxville match ended and it had me cracking up.
