Kingston should win emphatically and quickly. The TNT title match and tournament matches are so fucking great on paper. Page vs. Wardlow is a match that could be headlining a PPV in another year or two. I really enjoyed the All In Penta/Omega match but I think they have a better in one them. I was thinking it would be with some build to give it some extra layers but this is fine for now.

Well....I’m praying this is the night Young Bucks announce that they will have their own manager for the tag team title match vs FTR at Full Gear. 

 

FTR with Tully Blanchard 

vs 

Young Bucks with Arn Anderson 
 

Then we can finally witness the birth of the new Apocalypse at Full Gear when Anderson turns on Cody with a passive-aggressive maneuver..and turns on Young Bucks to end Full Gear with an ultimate beat down of Young Bucks by FTR, Tully, Arn and MJF.

 

The seed needs to be planted tonight.

 

Young Bucks announce Arn Anderson is their Head Coach at Full Gear tonight.

 

Make it so Tony!!!!

Women's match was very good! Hirsch, is that her name?, looked super solid and that was the best Deeb has looked in AEW imo. 

Main event was great but a bit rushed as a lot of the Dynamite big matches are. Fair enough. Not sure about Kenny using the arm for the OWA after the arm snap but fuck that was fun and Penta looked ready for a singles push. Omega bringing back the best parts of the Cleaner gimmick is perfect for this run. 

Cody. 

Missed most of Wardlow/Hangman. Finish was so good and made Wardlow look like a badass in defeat. That last lariat was nasty. 

The jericho/MJF stuff was bad. But I guess we got another big marquee match. And they gave us something regarding Nyla and Shida. My guess is Shida wins and drops the title to Britt probably at the next ppv.

Really strong first two matches. The hoss fight was a blast. Just fuckin' great match. 

Sydal tightened up his stuff against Eddie and though we might've wanted more from Eddie it's nice he gave Sydal a lot. 

The Town Hall was decent after we got the chuckles out of the way. Eric B. from Wyoming was quite a ways from his home...

What I watched of the women's match looked good. I don't give a shit about the tag feud. I didn't really care much about Cody/Orange either and pretty much ignored Omega/Penta, putting those two together in a ring is nothing I want to see. Mr. Jazz Hands vs. Catchphrase-and-a-Piledriver, no thanks.

Hangman/Wardlow was a great way to kick off the show. Sydal looked good against Kingston. Great to see Serena looking great, I love it. Awesome to see her as NWA Champion after all in her career. Interesting that the Bucks have the never challenge again stip like Cody. Liked Omega/Pentagon a lot, Omega's entrance again was spectacular. Looking forward to Cody/Darby again. Also looking forward to Gunn Club! teaming with Cody next week, finally getting some Dynamite action. Loved the Bischoff appearance. As others say, Full Gear is definitely stacked, should be an awesome one.

What a pretentious, self-indulgent wiener Kenny Omega is. That "performance art" style just doesn't do it for me. Again, anyone who thinks he's capable of being a US promotion's "top guy" is sorely, sadly mistaken. 

Eddie Kingston is so fucking cool. Everything about him, from his ring presence to that gravelly voice just oozes menace and an element of feral danger under the surface. He has no chance of beating Moxley, but he's making me believe maybe he does.

I'm not into the Young Bucks/FTR stuff either. I've never understood the appeal of either team, other than it seems like one day the IWC (registered trademark here) just decided these were the two best tag teams n the world and we just went on from there. I got nothing for that match.

Orange and Cody was fun, but could've used 5 more minutes. Felt rushed, and that's usually never the case with Cody.

Page/Wardlow was extremely my shit. Page having to do shit he hadn't done yet to put Wardlow down made the big guy look like a monster in defeat. He's another guy they probably signed as a youngster with some potential who's gonna end up being a cornerstone in 3-4 years, like Ricky Starks. 

Jericho/MJF was what it was. I thought that angle could've used a week off after the musical number, which I dug, but I get why they couldn't let it breathe. Hopefully this is settled definitively after the PPV. 

Pretty good show. Thought Miro looked like a serious threat for the first time, and Serena Deeb availed herself nicely. I wonder if Thunder Rosa is nXt bound? Would be a bit of a gaffe for AEW not to sign her.

Leyla Hirsch is someone I'm surprised WWE doesn't have at the PC. That's someone AEW should pick up.

Edit - I'm I crazy or does this video have 38 MILLION views? What?!

Nothing that addresses the criticisms that the women's division is criminally underbooked, though.

I don't agree that it's nice. Eddie has a PPV world title match in a week and a half. He's a great promo, but what has he accomplished in the ring that makes him look like a threat to AEW's top guy? Going fifty-fifty against a nobody like Matt Sydal does nothing to establish him.

Very entertaining show. Full Gear looks like a great card.

Great to see Serena Deeb back. Match was really good too. I laughed when they were hyping up the challenger and the chyron came on showing her record as 0 - 1. Not sure what the deal is with Thunder Rosa and the NWA but I hope we get to see Deeb and Rosa some more. And Kirsch, I saw her for the first time yesterday on Dark but I'm a fan. Oh, and it's good to see the champ for a couple of seconds too. 

I'm into Kenny's new direction, he makes a great dick heel and the over the top mannerisms just make it more annoying. No selling the arm break to hit the OWA was lame though. I hope Fenix gets his shot down the road too.

Beyond Wrestling's Intergender matches occasionally get ridiculous volumes of views*. The most viewed Wrestling *match* (as opposed to video) on YouTube is Chris Dickinson vs Addy Starr in a Kiss My Ass match.

Anyway, Eddie Kingston changed up his colour scheme from the Kawada tribute. He was Big Van Kingston tonight.

* From horny Indian men who use them as porn.

Thank you as that would explain the comments.

She is short and I think only just started to make a name for herself the past year or so.

AxB beat me to the vid explanation. Still that is pretty damn ridiculously huge.

Okay, between watching that Beyond intergender match and tonight's match, I hope they sign Hirsch. She's so small it's a gimmick, like Riho... Except she's way more athletic, far less sympathetic and more of just a li'l sparkplug. Reynolds was a tremendous dirtbag in that. Looked like he takes a lot from heel Bret Hart, beyond the weird Sharpshooter thing near the end.
