Krone Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 This sets up well for Cody being the 3rd man. "Nobody was there to help me. I've done everything for AEW. Yada Yada" Let him take however long off (a couple of months I'd imagine) and come Full Gear we can have our Bash at the Beach. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John from Cincinnati Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 Figured Cody would lose. Still disappointed. And before anyone says something silly like "Why would AEW bring someone in for a big featured match just to have him lose immediately?", poor Javy got that exact treatment. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For Great Justice Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 Well, Black was a spectacle. Damn. I’m good never seeing Cody again, though they obviously Dusty Finish’d it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 That was a really fun show, but that six-man was my favorite. Not only did it have my favorite three people in the fed, it was a pretty perfect house show main/dark main event. And there was that infinitely gif-able tope millimeters away from Sting. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate the idea of there being a "3rd man" situation, but love the idea of it being Cody. They should only do it if it's all about Cody. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jiji Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 For whatever reason my DVR didn't record the show so I missed jericho/juvi. Will have to check it out later. Rest of the show was fine but definitely a step back since the show hit the road. Black squashing him was the right thing to do. Cody talked about the EVP/main event guys stepping back over the next few years. Lead by example, bro! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This. The squash match vs. The late, great Mr. Brodie Lee is one of the best matches in AEW history. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Cincinnati Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 The partition in front of the fans on the stage being what's opposite the hard camera is the dirt worst. Sucks so much energy out of the TV presentation. Next time they feel the need to return to Daily's, I hope they switch to the alternate camera set-up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreamBroken Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 (edited) Jericho/Juvi ruled, fun opener, and a Super Judas Effect! Would love to see Juvi stick around for more. Loved Kenny wearing the Cookie Monster shirt and there was a "what time is it!" in that hilarious Elite Squad segment. Glad to see Dan Lambert is coming back - with backup! He can be a great heel manager. Solid matches from Miro/Lee and Leyla/Bunny. Figured Leyla would win for the face to be against Kamille, sad that Serena is back on the injured list though. Enjoyed the main event while it lasted, didn't love the end. I was hoping they would go the TV time remaining route. Felt too similar to the brodie lee feud as now Cody will be gone again but the set up is there for his comeback like last time, even though this time was an apparent retirement attempt. I assume this was his write off back to the Go Big Show season 2. Rampage going with a 4 man booth should be interesting. As always, dig the excitement throughout the show and looking forward to next week. Edited August 5, 2021 by DreamBroken 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right? No reason for the Bucks and Kenny to be bitter. He put them over strong and made them t-shirt millionaires. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I’m not sure if people are being serious about that or not. But the idea that Punk or Danielson sign off on coming in for some lame as shit NWO revival is pretty hilarious. Especially when the Elite are already doing a parody of the Bullet Club which is an homage to the NWO. Or maybe it’s an homage of a parody? Who’s to say. What’s up with Hikaru Shida? She’s their Women’s champ for like, a year, drops the belt to Britt and then disappears? I know she’s had some matches on the YouTube shows no one watches, but legit has she been on Dynamite at all since losing the title?

NikoBaltimore Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 (edited) The end took the show from 0 to 60 in no time at all (generally liked the show but you knew it was a cool down one) Black is already a made man and that went exactly as it should have. And yes like Natural said the last time he got his ass handed to him like that was against Mr. Brodie Lee. So when a beating like that is that rare that shows how much Cody thinks of the person he's against and the story going forward. So while I had some slight issues with certain Cody things at his core there's somebody that knows how to do things right. As for Black interrupting the speech? You can take it many ways but if they're going to treat it like Black ended his career by taking the boot then I'm all here for it. Oh, and also loved not only PBR getting their Broski commercial in but also the Golden Girls theme which had some of the crowd singing along. And if his Twitter is to be believed Woods definitely watches AEW. So that was some highly amusing stuff.

EVA Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 The trios match was great fun. Garcia and 2.0 acquitted themselves well. If they really wanted to get the Hypothetical Trios Title over as a big deal, Mox/Eddie/Darby would be the perfect team to make people care about it right out of the gate. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
