You're gonna get your fucking head kicked in!

Looking forward to next week's AEW Dynamite celebrating two years. Nice to look forward to wrestling on a weekly basis. Build towards AEW Full Gear 2021 as it takes place 13th of November.

So happy we're back to a Saturday PPV in November.

I second this. AEW PPVs tend to be on a Saturday, UFC PPVs are nearly always on a Saturday so 1am start for AEW and 3am for UFC main card on a Sunday. WWE's the Sunday so midnight Monday morning. When AEW has a Sunday PPV, It's a 1:00am start time Monday morning. Respect to the Brits and the Europeans here who watch these in the early hours of the fucking morning live. We're hardcore!!!

I'm such a huge fan of Thunder Rosa.  I also love following her facebook along with ym daughter because it's just so....wholesome.  The travel stories and posts have endeared her to me because my daughter will legitimately ask me to see what TR has posted.  I can't wait for her and Britt Baker to go toe to toe again.

Aw, that's pretty sweet.  Hopefully it won't be too long before Rosa challenges though I see her as the one dethroning Britt.  I think Tay needs to get her challenge in first which I'm assuming is at Full Gear.  So for all we know this could end up being something that happens at Revolution.

TK is trying to trademark (already did?) the King of Harts nickname. It’s not going to be used for the tournament or anything - the Observer says the intent is to give it to Martha and her children as a gift.

This guy really is just trying to right all the wrongs of the wrestling world. What a legend, and after only TWO full years at that.

I'll be curious to see if moving back to Saturday hurts the buys. I personally with Saturday nights and so I greatly prefer the Sunday shows. And that have seemed to be getting at least some bump from being on the "wrestling" night.

So, I’m working in child and youth services over here in Germany and every few weeks I’m watching AEW while “working” when I couldn’t make the time to watch live or before going to work.

Today I was watching a little Rampage and two thirteen-year-old boys who know absolutely nothing about wrestling recognized Orange Cassidy. Told me how cool his whole hands-in-his-pocket-thing is and that they’ve seen him on TikTok several times. Thought that was kinda cool.

Also, I’m really glad that AEW has one advertised women’s match on almost every show because our ten-year-old girl always asks when/if women are wrestling.

From the September thread:

It’s definitely been individual entrances every two minutes in the past, which means the match can end before everyone’s in the match.

That's what Tony Khan said on Busted Open. That it's timed intervals, but it can end at any time.

 

Wait for real? My mistake then.

I wish TK would give up on the deck of cards bullshit. Casino Battle Royals are always bad. We're two years in and they still can't get the production right for them. No one cares about what suit people draw. All the entrances are missed because of the person ahead of them hitting their hot spot. Just keep the surprise entrant element and scrap this concept man. Especially bad for a ladder match that can end before everyone has entered.

I kind of don’t hate the idea that the ladder match can end before everyone enters because it could allow for a time where the match ends before the joker enters then the surprise joker can come out beat down the winner and has a built in feud. But overall the casino matches still need refinement to work right

He's the most non-fan accessible character I've ever seen. Everybody has known a totally laid back slacker dude at some point in their life, and seeing him take to eleven is immediately fun to watch.

Either that, or he's "an embarrassment to the wrestling business who is why they will never grow their audience" or whatever the fuck.

Anthony Carelli was like ten years too early. Imagine him doing the Santino schtick but he’s allowed to work a serious Battle Arts style when things get heavy. It’d be like that awesome Elimination Chamber where it came down to him and Bryan.

OC is the only wrestler ever that has made my 62 year old dad walk past me when watching Dynamite and asking “is the sunglasses dude on?” so he can sit down for 10min with me.

It's so great to see someone like OC who got themselves over on the indies, then see the fruits of their labor blossom on a national stage. To the point of pulling in casuals. Very happy for people like him, Darby, ect.
