Gordi the former AEW fan Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 (edited) Finally! Dynamite! Comes back! To Nashville! TNT TITLE MATCH: Sammy Guevara(c) vs. Darby Allin Oh hell yeah! Yes, please. If you aren't looking forward to this, maybe modern pro wrestling just isn't for you. Hot damn, what a great match-up. Hopefully they won't get too much into the AHFO and Inner Circle stuff during the match itself, and just let these two young studs go. FACE OF THE REVOLUTION QUALIFYING MATCH: Wardlow vs. Max Caster POWERBOMB PARTAAAYYY!!! Also probably some MJF-related angle advancement. Perhaps, also, since it's MJF-related: PUNK CALLING HIS SHOT. ONE-ON-ONE: “The American Dragon” Bryan Danielson vs. "Taiga Style" Lee Moriarty Oh hell yeah! Yes, please. If you aren't looking forward to this, maybe modern pro wrestling just isn't for you. Hot damn, what a great match-up. I absolutely don't care that Bryan winning is a foregone conclusion, I can't wait to watch this. NO DISQUALIFICATION: Mercedes Martinez vs. Thunder Rosa Oh hell yeah etc. etc. Dang. There is shaping up to be a lot of very good pro wrestling going on here. Gonna be some stiff shots thrown here, in particular, in this match. Hopefully everyone is motivated to try and steal the show. THE INNER CIRCLE IMPLODES: Chris Jericho & Jake Hager vs. Santana & Ortiz They are gonna put the TNT Title match on last, right? This'll be good. I'm not hating... but Sammy vs Darby, Dragon vs Taiga, and Thunder vs Precision-Engineered Luxury are all going to be very tough to top. Have I mentioned that I love pro wrestling? Cuz: I do.

The Natural Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 (edited) The GOAT back in action, Bryan Danielson for the first time since losing to Adam Page in my 2022 MOTY I gave *****. Be interesting to see the stipulation and location Punk picks. Latter is surely Revolution...and don't call me Shirley . Former, Steel Cage seems likely. This will probably be unpopular...I can't warm to Sammy Guevara as TNT Champion, he's the worst champion in the belt's history. I wanted Eddie Kingston to end Miro's reign. Sammy works better as a heel. I wouldn't be surprised if barbed wire or thumbtacks are used in Thunder Rosa vs. Mercedes Martinez. Need to limit the use of Street Fight/Texas Death Match/Lights Out matches as all three are similar and the more they're done, sometimes it means less. That too might be an unpopular POV. Still love me my AEW. Edited February 16, 2022 by The Natural 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Sammy and while that switch makes sense Eddie is so so good on the mic that it's a Piper/Dusty thing of not needing a belt imo. Wouldn't mind Starks or Miro again as TV champ.

The blessing Eddie has is that people still love him and he can afford a loss here and there with his gift of the gab...but he can't be losing too many as he usually does. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NikoBaltimore Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 I know the discussion's been all about Cody in the other thread. But I'm really curious to see what chants or signs end up on the show related to him. I know he has his fans but the detractors in the crowd can be quite vicious. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like to think Cody Rhodes will get a good reception with thank you chants and the like for what he's done in AEW. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StretchMediatedHypertrophy Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 Though maybe the plan was always to put the belt back on Sammy, Cody staying or no, it's interesting how he's gone from having a short reign to being a two-time champion. Doesn't feel like Darbs is winning here, though hard to imagine Sammy going over clean either. The Cody leaving thing also puts new light on Jericho. Tone did choose to exercise the option on him, and one suspects he'll want his matches.....but one also suspects Jericho might be at Wrestlemania next year, and I think we're all fine with that. But can he reinvent himself one more time? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxB Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 Max Caster has been working an angle on twitter for months about how he’s in love with MJF, and now he’s wrestling Wardlow. Could be interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zakk_Sabbath Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 Hopefully Cody's exit means Sammy will be using just the one belt moving forward. Ive learned that although I love a nice two belt title, I apparently don't when they're the same one. Always nice to have a card where 2-3 matches could be legitimate show stealers. Obviously hyped for Danielson's return (when guys like him, Sting, or Christian don't get in there for a while, I compulsively worry they're done). I might be more excited for the ladies' match than anything else. Rosa's L.O. with Britt was one of my favorite matches of last year, let's see if she can make lightning strike twice. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Casey Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 goddamnit, I really should have picked up tickets for this show. It’s worth the drive just to see Rosa/Mercedes in a No DQ match. I really hope that one gets a good 20 minutes or so. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan Faulconer Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 (edited) I have a feeling that Punk will choose a dog collar match against MJF. He has had two in ROH against Raven and Jimmy Rave, respectively. There is also the Piper references in this feud. Piper’s most famous match before WWF was the dog collar match against Greg Valentine at the Grandaddy of them All, Starrcade ‘83. I really wanted Britt to embrace her inner Megumi Kudo and do a Electrified No Rope Barbed Wire Timed Bomb Deathmatch for the blowoff against Rosa. It seems like the rumours they will do a steel cage match. interference has been an issue that the wicked huge AEW cage would ideally prevent. I don’t think they will do a cage dive like every other AEW cage match. They would have a shot at vindication over last year’s exploding pffft anti-climax. They need outdoor venues to do that kind of match though. Britt embracing her inner Megumi Kudo sounds like something completely unrelated to exploding barbed wire matches. I will choose my words more wisely.. maybe. Edited February 16, 2022 by Ryan Faulconer 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L_W_P Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 I'd be happy for Darby to take the title here. Sammy can spend a couple of weeks in the Inner Circle Implodes story & then put Jericho down at Revolution. Another awesome looking line up though 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Cincinnati Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 (edited) What's Darby's last really big singles victory? The coffin match? He's lost his last couple very high profile matches (vs Punk, MJF). Might be time for a win here, even though Sammy just won it back. Pump up his TNT title run numbers in pursuit of erasing, err, someone from the record book. Regardless, he almost assuredly has a big win vs Andrade coming up. Could go either way. Big match. TNT title >>>>>>>> world title. Edited February 16, 2022 by John from Cincinnati 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
