  1. Was that the best Hager match ever? HAT BASED STORYTELLING~ plz plz plz plz don't fuck up House of Black this time! Loved the little lights out fake out with everyone totally expecting Danhausen for Julia to be the harbinger and just finally see those three wreck some shit like they should have been doing all along. Loved how minus the Elite match, the show gave the audience enough to keep them from doing the CM Punk chant. Wondering too which "side" different cities are gonna take, or if Chicago is gonna be the only pro-Punk city. That opening segment with the former BCC was super compelling and I'm totally into following where this Mox and Danielson road goes. Mox isn't getting that vacation, is he? Super happy for Jamie and Storm for not having "interim" on their reigns. Man, Britt couldn't let Jamie have one moment..... Top Flight and Top Guys is gonna rule!
  2. Is what TK is doing really different than most other promotors? Vince (rich kid) inherited it from Dad. Heyman came into a lot of money then the rest was history with ECW, now TK with AEW. Like.... running a major wrestling company takes money, can you really fault him for chasing his dream since he had the opportunity?
  3. I almost feel like they're laying it on a little too thick, I would have saved MJF quoting Punk quoting Kevin Spacey (jesus how is Max the most reputable person in that trio) until if after that's what the big turn is gonna be.
  4. Liked the tease of "a trio is coming back" with how Elite and the Church of Dutch Satan have both had their own vignettes recently. I'm going to Full Gear on Saturday and I'm really split between wearing my Elite (Change the world) or Malakai mask shirt. Add me to the Allie/Bunny fan club. She's probably the most underrated person on that roster. So........................ The Firm went down kind of easy there.........
  5. The timeline is something to consider to. Is 'mania going to be Roman vs. Rock? Does that mean Rock dethrones him? If that's not the case, do you do it before or after? Do you take one belt off Roman before? A lot of moving parts here. It feel like Roman losing really should be at one of the major events though, Rhodes potentially winning at Mania feels a lot bigger than say... Backlash.
  6. LORD HAVE MERCY! GOOD GOD Y'ALL! LET'S GET UP AND GET DOWN BY DOING THE FUNKY DUCKMAN! GETCHA DOWN-DOWN, YA THRUST YA PELVIS Anyway...... Bryan Danielson/ Daniel Bryan - Feels like there's no wrong answer for this one but recentcy bias has me thinking more of his AEW stuff than WWE and Ring of Honor. Gonna go with vs. Minoru Suzuki on the buy in to Rampage that one time. Matches vs. Morishima and Joe in Ring of Honor stand out too. Seth Rollins / Tyler Black - vs. Cena and Lesnar at Royal Rumble. Shield vs. The Wyatts. The cash in on Roman and Brock. Road Dogg - Don't know if I can pick a good one but the dumpster match vs. Cactus and Funk was at least memorable Fit Finlay - Okay so left field. Back around like... '06ish I think, he had a match with Miz where him and Hornswoggle just fucked with the Miz all match. Sasha Banks - Bayley, Takeover: Brooklyn The Miz - Are there any really great Miz matches? I guess the first run of Miz and Morrison tags were fun Kenta Kobashi - GHC Title vs. Suzuki, vs. Hansen (with that lariat), the one super famous tag with Misawa vs. Kawada/Taue Jack Evans - Steel Cage Warfare: Generation Next vs. The Embassy. I remember one Strong/Evans vs. Reyes/Romero tag being a lot of fun. Vs. Danielson when I swore Dragon was gonna snap him in half with some of the ways he was stretching him. Takeshi Morishima - Vs. Danielson at Final Battle, Vs. Claudio (defending the RoH Title). That one Kings of Wrestling vs. Morishima and I forget who his partner was but Claudio hit the UFO on Morishima which just.... one of the most insane things in wrestling I've ever seen Big Show / The Giant / Paul White - Curious to see what people say about him Hiroshi Tanahashi - vs. Naito at WrestleKingdom (WK 11). I was out of New Japan for a while but a few friends invited me over to watch this show for... another match that got a lot of hype. This would have stolen the show on any other night. Defending the IWGP belt vs. Suzuki (seeing a pattern here....). Almost any time he hooks up with Okada Mick Foley / Mankind / Cactus Jack / Dude Love - HHH, street fight (I know the Cell match gets all the love but I stand with this one being better). Mindgames vs. HBK William Regal - OH, I can answer this for Big Show too. When using the knucks backfired. Kenny Omega - Okada, WK 11. Either of the Danielson matches in AEW. Kenny/Hangman vs. The Bucks (Revolution). Becky Lynch - vs. Sasha at one the early Takeovers The Rock - vs. Austin, Mania 17. Ladder match vs. HHH, Summerslam, IC Title. Eddie Guerrero - Rey, Halloween Havoc. vs. Lesnar. Vs. Angle at Mania (tremendous finish to that one) Darby Allin - vs. Jericho, second Dynamite John Cena - vs. Danielson Nigel McGuiness - defending the RoH vs. Steen. Steen sloooooowly walking out of the way of the rebound Lariat. Rey Mysterio - vs. Eddie, Halloween Havoc
  7. There's been so much digital ink spilled about how Darby's cooled off over the past year or so. I think there's a few good avenues here this could go. Either he gets a good win over Jarrett to build some momentum back or would a heel turn be out of the question? Darby hasn't really done a lot since associating with Sting and.... it's in the rulebook, you have to turn on Sting at some point? Colt was a great surprise for Jericho's opponent. Guess he's officially no longer Dark Order. Hopefully this means he's back in the rotation going forward too. Feels like the tag title scene is a little muddled right now. Feels like the match fans really want is FTR and Acclaimed and I get using Swerve as an interloper for it from a story standpoint but I feel like the worst case is gonna be a 4 way at Full Gear with the Gunns. Nothing against Marina or Jade (I think Jade's great) but Nyla and Vickie hijacking that match was the best possible thing that could happen there. So Julia Hart has gone from Cheerleader to Stevie Nicks cosplayer (Coven was the best season of American Horror Story) to.... literal witch/dark priestess? Really, really hoping they get the House of Black right this time. I love these little horror shorts they do from time to time and just wish they would lead to something substantial. Malakai did post a screen of him and Miro on his insta story recently so I'd love for that story to get a better conclusion than "Lol Sting Wins."
  8. Remember on the Office when Angela kept wanting to every tell the story of Dwight's heroics saving Jim but then she got to Creed....... I want that with Nyla.... Nyla's version of this whole thing
  9. Okay but straight up Nyla looks dope with that belt
  10. WILLOW! Has there ever been a match with a stranger set of seconds? -RUSH had Jose, your traditional manager figure -Pres10 had a literal child -OC had freaking Danhausen I hope this Nyla/Jade stuff goes on long enough that it reaches to full gear with Nyla taking this to the most absurd lengths. I'm talking Nyla committing literal identify theft on Jade. Hook's definitely coming along. His match with Ange at All Out was the first time we saw him take some offense and there and tonight we got to see him fight from behind for a bit. I really have high hopes for him. And yes, as someone mentioned above, Hooking having to run a Trustbusters gauntlet would have been fun too. RE: Jade having a belt at that event: Nyla responding to TK Nyla forever.
  11. RIP the Honor No More theme, that thing slapped. Wasn't really feeling much on last night's show but the X Division bracket for the new champion has some great names in it (ANGELS, BLACK, OTHERS!) Weird that Bullet Club for years and years "ran wrestling" no matter where they were but now they were the footnote to a Bully Ray and Tommy Dreamer match in 2022. Good on Heath and Rhino, that tag scene should feel kind of fresh with the Majors back together too.
  12. Okay, so, I caught a lot of shit for being down with the clown when I was younger. Even today I still bump Milenko and Jeckyl Brothers sometimes. This isn't a "great" match to begin with. It's baby Chris Hero (still rocking a Superman shirt, not even the stylized the CH in the shield yet) on a JCW show. It's a competent enough 6 minutes that feels much much longer for whatever the hell J and Shaggy were going for. In a weird way, it is very quotable but not for the right reasons. I still call the Ibushi/Andrade "guys roll out of the way of the first moonsault to get with a standing one" the "nobody moonsault," and..... I can't explain why the Walgreens comment always pops me
  13. Wasn't too into the promo parade to start the show but it at least established a good slew of guys who have valid reasons to warrant a shot against Josh. Liking the intrigue with Bully too. Like... he totally has to reveal this is all a clever ruse but... it seemed genuine, not wanting to go out the villain. Chelsea and Deonna are so great together. I went to an indy show this past weekend that had Chelsea vs. Rosemary on it so was fun to see this six woman as an unofficial continuation of that. Liked the little moment with Heath and Rhino and the Machine Guns too, that'll be a fun one when it happens. Fish vs. Josh was amazing. Fish is great. Josh is fantastic. No surprises there.
  14. Me and friends are going to Full Gear and with it being a bigger gut punch of Max taking it off Hanger than Mox it feels like that's probably the road to go down... fuck..... So I was watching Impact last night and got to thinking that while Mox is probably wrestler of the year for this year, one can make a really compelling case for Josh Alexander too save for the fact that nobody watches the weirdly good these days Thursday show. But then I thought again that it should just be Nyla. Nyla forever.
  15. Okay so I spent the summer mostly living somewhere else where I didn't get AXS and this was a great episode to jump back into Impact. This episode was a solid reminder of how good Impact is each week for a few good banger matches and feels like the matches at BFG have a lot of weight to them this year. Shelley and Taven was great and won't be watching tonight but I hope whatever goes down we get a Machine Guns/OGK rematch on tv at some point. Those promo packages did a really cool job building up what Edwards and Josh mean to the company and it's been a while since I felt like an Impact title match was this important. I'm really split in that the Machines Guns are one of my favorite tag teams ever but I think Honor No More are in that spot now where they should be that heel stable holding all the belts. Honestly I've never really been a Sami Callahan fan but I got a kick out of his reffing style. Good God that Masha attack at the end was one of the greatest things I've seen in a while.
  16. It really speaks to Kurt that he's the same guy that can pull off this promo and still come off as the most legit bad ass in the company
  17. Okay is there anyway to have my rank changed to 'Immaculate Little Tiramisu'
  18. Jericho vs. Ultimo Dragon from Bash at the Beach is up there for me too.
  19. Rey vs. Eddie from Halloween Havoc is on WWE's youtube channel. Maaaaaaaaaaybe the best Cruiserweight match in WCW history?
  20. Kind of thought it would have been Danielson since MJF beating him felt like it would be a bigger heat moment than Max over Mox. Would have been nice to see Danielson have one more moment though even if for a just a moment. Yeah the boom box should have been finish in the tag match. Really happy for The Acclaimed. Caster's rap was tops tonight too. Not really sure what's happening with Hayter and Britt. So so so so happy Saraya's here but trying not to think she's gonna be another Ruby/Athena "Hey remember she's on the roster, right?" 2.0 has to beat FTR so the JAS can become Ring of Jericho, right? Not sure if it was intentional but they were in Queens, the MJF mugging during the main was giving me major George Costanza vibes https://images.app.goo.gl/QeM27RrTwuEpsTb29
  21. YO! YO! LISTEN! The locker room says things are looking scary But The Acclaimed can save the day like Kenny saved Larry ....yeah probably better to not give Caster the platform to get himself fired tonight.
  22. Is this really anything major though? Some shit went down, now one of the main instigators/participants is meeting with the boss. We don't know what was discussed, we don't know what options were presented, we don't know what arguments were prepared beforehand. Honestly it'd be more shocking if the news was "Punk's been radio silent since Sunday."
  23. I've been lucky enough to see wrestlers in person that I thought were longshots. Misawa, Suzuki, Tanahashi, Okada. Short of going to Japan there isn't much I can come up with that I'd still like to see.... But the last batch of posts got me thinking, an AEW show ending with the LIJ roll call would RULE! NOS OSTROS~
  24. Really solid show but that ending man...... Drew finally hits the claymore in what should have a been total catharsis and.... I guess Kross is next for Roman? Gunther/Sheamus totally delivered. That was one of those performances where you look at the winner and feel like holy shit how do you beat this guy? Damage Control looked great together, so glad Dakota and Io finally getting to show what they can do on the main stage BROKEN DREAMS~
  25. Man how does Punk not drop a "Somebody's gonna die" after getting his fire relit by Ace like that. I know last week was a little deflating but I'm super intrigued by Punk/Mox II now. That 4 way was outstanding. Feels like's a been a while since we've had a little indytastic sprint like that on AEW tv, they felt a little more common in the early days. The Casino Ladder match is usually fun and that really sold what it could be. Plus Claudio in there is gonna be dope too. I wonder what Punk/Mox II means for the speculation that My Jewish Friend may have been the Joker this year? Hager's best match ever? Something about AEW just feels right with Kenny back. That entrance was so petty and so awesome.
