Niners Fan in CT Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 55 minutes ago, Craig H said: Sapp continues making things worse and proving Punk’s point about these journalists being stupid as fuck. Sapp on his show said that he got a text at 5 am and a call at 5:30 am saying that Discovery was unhappy and Punk was expecting to be fired possibly at 1 pm today, and then goes on to say that this is all remarkably uncomfirmed. SO WHY EVEN SAY ANYTHING ABOUT IT? Oh, it’s to get clicks and subscriptions, that’s why. Jesus Christ. All of these marks want to so desperately be a part of the drama. It’s embarrassing.

J.T. Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 (edited) This card was perfectly fine. I have few complaints other than it being really time to end Jade's streak and being in disbelief about why you wouldn't Brody the finish of Swerve In Our Glory / Acclaimed and put the belts on Bowden and Castor. The crowd was white hot for them. Let them hold onto the belts for 30 days and transition back to Lee and Strickland in a re-match on Dynamite. The Acclaimed are in desperate need of a high-profile win and Sunday night was a golden opportunity. Edited September 6, 2022 by J.T. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaos Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 10 minutes ago, S.K.o.S. said: I take this to mean that Tony is folding the promotion, and issuing a press release saying "Thanks for ruining it PHIL" Given recent reports for how Discovery plans on handling TBS/TNT, I don't see how AEW can exist on there with a decent time slot that isn't constantly preempted for both Dynamite and Rampage if TNT is going to become Turner Sports and they get shelved there between Baseball, Hockey, and Basketball. I'm sure there's a version that works, but I'm thinking there's a high chance of either there being a new tv network or no tv in the future even with the ratings being as strong as they are especially if WB-Discovery is being hesitant on any big content expenditures.

Cobra Commander Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 Ace Steel is the runaway winner for hanger-on of the year. Like if one of your high school buddies showed up to visit you at college and then got into a fight that got the downtown bar district mass-pepper sprayed But yeah, this is some real 1997 WWF stuff for important people in the promotion acting unprofessionally in the back. Looking forward to seeing if MJF could legit put Punk out with the sleeper to force the title change (I'm sure I've typed this before but when I was like 5, the concept of a sleeperhold terrified me) 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DEAN Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 The Women's Fourway was waaaay better than any four way should ever be- 100% because of Jamie Hayter and Britt Baker. I love that they used the stipulations of the match to have Britt Baker slowly turn on Jamie Hayter. That was good storytelling. I like how that made Tony Storm winning not get slaughtered by the crowd because Jamie Hayter is the most over woman in AEW. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Occam’s Razor says yeah probably And if he IS gone, please TK no more tournaments. Just give MJF that shit HHH big gold belt style. Hand it to him live on TV “as per the terms of his contract”, then have Kingston come out to talk some shit to end the segment. And there’s your Grand Slam match. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
