The ancestral steel chair, passed down from one concussed grumpy middle aged Chicago man to the next. Not to be trifled with. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StretchMediatedHypertrophy Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 To change the subject to Tony's other bestie Sammy Guevara, apologies if this has been posted but like yeah, nah...I don't see how you can justify another intergender match anytime soon. I don't really want to purely blame Guevara, Soho needs to learn to say no to stupid shit, and probably the agent needs a biting somewhere sensitive for agreeing that spot. It's possible Melo was supposed to do something else, but whatever this is no fucking good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elsalvajeloco Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 WWE: Vince being outed as a sexual predator who uses company cash for his liaisons and hush money and has to step down is the biggest story of the year. AEW: Hold my beer. Welcome back, 1997. We missed you. 4 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's possible Melo was supposed to do something else, but whatever this is no fucking good. I didn’t see that match. No idea how the bump is supposed to be taken correctly but it looks like Sami is maybe supposed to spin a bit so Ruby lands safely? Instead, he does a dismissive toss to heel it up. Like he’s trying to wrestle n character and got caught up in not doing a spot right. I could be completely and fully off though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Ape Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 Someone pointed out to me how it feels like the people who have stuck with wrestling after the last boom period aren’t watching for the wrestling, but for the manifestations of the backstage drama therein, and to pick it apart and try to feel like we’re part of it. After the happenings of last night, I haven’t been able to refute it, and realized that if I spent money on that show only for the most talked-about part of it to run on a presser that runs for free on YouTube, I would be mad. In any case; what a shitshow. AEW definitely feels like it’s lost it’s magic, and who knows where this backstage mess will lead. Probably another late WCW situation. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 Just to put a bow on something - WON has updated their story to make it clear that Steel was the one who bit Omega This is the updated blurb Quote According to multiple sources that lined up with some of Fightful's reporting, there was a fight backstage afterward with Punk allegedly starting things by swinging fists at the Bucks' Matt Jackson. Punk trainer/friend and AEW producer Steel (part of the storyline that got Punk into Sunday's Jon Moxley match) threw a chair that hit the Bucks' Nick Jackson in the eye. Steel (Chris Guy) allegedly bit Omega and grabbed his hair. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuerrillaMonsoon Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 So the guy who has been backstage for the past 2.5 years and only recently comes back on TV in a relatively prominent role is the one who effectively commits career suicide by biting his boss in a backstage fight? Unless that guy is Marty Jannetty, nah, I ain't buying it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's got the eyes of a man who will bite you no regrets. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheVileOne Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 (edited) PWInsider says Ace Steel got involved with the fight because his wife was in the vicinity of the altercation and watching over Punk's dog Larry. Those taking Punk's side believe it was wrong for The Elite to corner Punk in his locker room like that. PWInsider also said that Omega did not get physically involved. Take it for what you will. I can see Omega not getting involved in a fracas. He seems like too mellow and laid back to get so hot he'd fight someone backstage and get physical over wrestling BS, if that makes any sense.

NoFistsJustFlips Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 Im leaning HEAVILY towards work. All of the elements are too similar to Shawn & Bret to be a coincidence. But for a second let's just go down the rabbit hole of it being a shoot. If it were a shoot, how in the world could AEW ever be taken seriously again. Guys jump back in forth in this business to make more money for themselves. If any of this is true and real, what WWE person would want to dive into all this chaos? The stability afforded by working for WWE vs the absolute wild west shit show AEW would be (if this is true) would be a turn off to anyone trying to make any real money for themselves. I just think TK is all in on this new meta kayfabe. The MJF stuff was clearly all a work. The Punk stuff seems to be a work. Even the Malachai Black waving and saying goodbye stuff smells like a work. He's all in on this kind of whatever we sell the backstage reality as you better play your fucking part and keep the kayfabe of it without breaking. And it's a bold new strategy. It's either going to pay off in a wild nWo-spark like way, or crash and burn horrendously... in a wild nWo-like way. I'm here for whatever side of the fence this all lands on lol. I just wish Dynamite was on tonight. How wild would that be?? 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well these guys aren't just wrestlers. They're the EVPs of the company, and they seemed to be in a confrontational mood. Also look, this is what PWInsider is saying happened from like secondhand sources. Or maybe they were firsthand. Who knows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
