Dolfan in NYC Posted January 15 Posted January 15 Heavenly Father watchin' us fall... we take from each other and give nothing at all! It's a new week for AEW and the hottest program in town is the Death Riders and their battle against Rated FTR! (Oh, that reminds me... fuck The Revivial!)  Anyway... why not have the hottest act from your other show join in!  That's right!  Chris Jericho and his band of merry men have joined us, setting up a gigantic multiman match!  Well, it's a doggone shame, but never too late for change. So, if your luck runs low, just reach out and call His name, His name... So, that's super! What else is happening? Oh right, we have a NEW #1 CONTENDER it's Powerhouse Hobbs! Tony should make him champion! (Or anyone really!) We'll see what happens when Hobbs loses to, um... er... challenges Mox tonight! It's Maximum Carnage week!  Yah-mo be there, yah-mo be there, yah-mo be there, yah-mo be there... Whenever you call! What else have we got?  A Women's Casino Gauntlet! The two black tag teams facing off! And... what happens when you ask AI to make two wrestlers look like gay 1990s terminators? Well... that match should be pretty fun at least.  (Some lovely yacht rock to warm your soul on this cold winter's day.) Enjoy your week! 4 1 1

Shartnado Posted January 15 Posted January 15 Just watching the best of Collision ('24) episode from Triller and re-watching Ospreay vs Cage. That's a good appetizer for Omega vs Cage, just to compare how those two matches stack up against each other? 1

Curt McGirt Posted January 15 Posted January 15 I guess there are two "I hate Michael McDonald" jokes floating around in the comic aether then?
Technico Support Posted January 15 Posted January 15 I won’t abide this Michael McDonald slander.  I Keep Forgettin’ is unfuckwithable. 4 2

Gordi the BJW fan Posted January 16 Posted January 16 Starting out hot and ending on a bummer is such a weird formula, but they keep going back to it again and again. 7
Casey Posted January 16 Posted January 16 guys just let me be the first to say that the Death Riders are killing AEW 4 7
Cobra Commander Posted January 16 Posted January 16 (edited) Things I Remember From This Week's Edition of AEW Dynamite: Mox goes over Hobbs mostly clean. Tough shit to anybody wanting them to pivot. Mox is bleeding from somewhere too. Hey remember when AEW actually had guys standing up to the Death Riders and now they're doing 5 on 1 beatdowns until the only people allowed to make a save show up. Jeff Jarrett and MJF battling on the mic for a long damned time until we get to the point. MJF is using his C- material and Jarrett is doing whatever his best is. Dustin cut a better promo for Jarrett than Jarrett did Toni Storm won a title match with Mariah for the Australia event Lashley and Benjamin doing the "bump vs sell" thing by flinging Private Party around Ricochet runs off into the cold from Swerve Kenny Omega is back and takes an obligatory heel beatdown The commentators table is on the hard cam because of the setup in this building, that's unique oh yeah, Joe is back and he saved Hook from a heel beatdown Edited January 16 by Cobra Commander 2
Niners Fan in CT Posted January 16 Posted January 16 Thought the show was mostly entertaining, wouldn't have minded if the Women's Casino went on even longer that was fun.  The Death Riders shit continues to suck. Nobody fucking cares about it or Edge as the guy to overcome the odds. Nobody. 2 1
just drew Posted January 16 Posted January 16 Hahahahahahahaha!!!!!! Death Riders 4 Life, bitchez! Â 1
Cobra Commander Posted January 16 Posted January 16 MJF going off on whatever heat he thinks he's getting has some real "dude hearing things in his head" energy when you consider how quiet the crowd was during most of his stuff like, the crowd really got high twice all night, for a "One Hit Wonder" chant for a few moments and they got up for Joe returning. 1

They popped pretty hard for Toni 1
COLETTI Posted January 16 Posted January 16 I was really stoked on this show early, especially with the unique layout to the venue that looked rad as fuck in television... but man, besides Joe coming back they really biffed it from MJJF onward. ...and yet again the women deserve better. 4 1
Curt McGirt Posted January 16 Posted January 16 ^^^ Gordi, yeah that's kinda how I felt too. I mean it's not like Omega/Cage was super hot or anything, but it was solid. Ricochet has a good deal of heat now which is nice and he really looked like a sleazy lawyer; for some reason he reminded me of Nicky Barnes on the cover of the New York Times. JJ and MJF I totally missed as I practically sprinted to the shower as soon as I saw the latter walking to the ring. Came back in about halfway through Christian/Hook and that was alright, Joe is back so a big plus there. But then we had the Casino women's match and the main. First off the Casino matches are fucking stupid. Just like most three- and four-way matches (or five or six or whatever cluster you can come up with) they involve two people fighting in the ring and a bunch of people laying on the floor. And, that sucks. Then we got Hobbs vs. Moxley and frankly I don't think Hobbs is ready to hold anything. He felt really one-dimensional here and besides throwing some solid forearms didn't bring much to the table. Mox tried because he was willing to pull a fuckin' Van Gogh to get the match over but it was all for naught, even if I loved that part. It didn't really amp things up, Hobbs didn't seem to get crazier or anything, it was just blood for blood's sake and didn't really didn't do anything in service of the match. And then the end was a wet fart. *sigh* 2 1
Cobra Commander Posted January 16 Posted January 16 2 minutes ago, Casey said: They popped pretty hard for Toni yeah the heat for the women's match was... something.. like that first pairing had no heat until they started counting down also, gotta note that when they're running a place that looks like an operahouse built by 19th century German steelworkers, having a slow babyface save in a small building is sorta glaring, it's not like FTRdge got lost on the way to the ring 2
Casey Posted January 16 Posted January 16 The big takeaway I got for this show was that with Joe eyeing up Christian, there’s your pivot moment if TK wants it. 2
Cobra Commander Posted January 16 Posted January 16 (edited) I'm sharing this commercial because I saw it during Dynamite and I didn't know if it was a legit ad or a wrestling gimmick  Edited January 16 by Cobra Commander 1 1 3
Curt McGirt Posted January 16 Posted January 16 (edited) I forgot all about the Hurt Syndicate match! I missed Private Party coming to the ring and getting beat down so when I looked up it was just Chicken versus three guys and I thought "is this supposed to be a handicap match?" Then PP got in the ring and my interest plummeted. It was pretty funny to re-introduce the gal who's been in Stardom as some kinda big deal like a surprise Rumble entrant and nobody knew who she was. Edited January 16 by Curt McGirt
