Greggulator Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 9 hours ago, DEAN said: AEW is the opposite of WCW. I remember WCW being chaotic and slapped together but it just led to shitty main events with Hogan or Nash or Hall. The undercard always delivered the goodness and kept me around. AEW is chaotic and slapped together but HERE you get The Forbidden Door PPV and the last two weeks main events. AND the undercard is also awesome. WWE currently is delivering on the main events and the undercard but it seems more planned and less chaotic. Either way, I am happy with the good wrestling. WCW's chaos just led to constant repetitiveness. It was the Groundhog Day of wrestling with like 5000 nWo run-ins throughout a show and Buff Bagwell's stupid hats in between a **** match between Malenko and Juvi that unfortunately never led to anything because they weren't allowed to go anywhere. AEW's chaos to me feels like ECW chaos. God knows how much last-second changes had to happen in ECW because of Sleaze Thread shenanigans or a dude jumping ship for a better payday or Heyman coming up with an idea in his mother's laundry room after 2 Cold Scorpio stumbled onto something in a promo to set up a quadruple turn that we all pretended worked at the time. It's a disorganized and crazy mess. There are some sloppy things. But at the end of the day I really like most of the show because it's a lot of fun. 7 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny Sorrow Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 I loved the Mox/ Deal. But the first thing I thought was, "Great act Daffy! " "Yeah, but you can only do it once!" 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GuerrillaMonsoon Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 I think we end up with a Cobra Kai type deal with the Garcia/Danielson stuff. Garcia/Robby chooses Danielson/Larusso over Jericho/Kreese, which causes friction with Yuta/Miguel and Moxley/Johnny. Hopefully leading to Moxley creating his own Eagle Fang dojo of course. 5 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pedro Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 so if Punk twisted his ankle and it caused him to lose the match does this mean he lost by "turning full heel" I'l see myself out 1 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Natural Posted August 26 Author Share Posted August 26 (edited) Meltzer: Jay Lethal vs Dax Harwood: ****.25. Will Ospreay, Kyle Fletcher and Mark Davis vs PAC, Penta and Rey Fenix: *****. Edited August 26 by The Natural 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shartnado Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 That spot where both PAC and Osprey did the dual poison ranas to clear the deadwood from the ring and stared at each other was amazing. Even more amazing, when you think who was among the deadwood. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DEAN Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 I'm assuming Bill Dundee has had 45 five star matches if that was a thing back then. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Schneider Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 I am sure if you asked Meltzer he would say that the third best match on a New Japan show is better then Dundee vs. Lawler Loser Leaves Town 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll have my full review later but goddamn was that cool… Yeah, my only minor complaints were Britt’s cheap shot at Rosa then botching like 3 moves, the main event ending, and the big Aussie guy’s pathetic forearm and elbow strikes.

Then interaction with Penelope Ford on Dark, then mentioned on commentary on her Rampage match. They've been putting it out there. Tony is trying to make the YouTube shows more meaningful by cross-running angles and giving people win streaks on them for the TV shows. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Mark Davis is the powerhouse of the team" Immediately followed by him gently rubbing his forearms across Pac's face. Also for a balls to the wall spotfest, we sure had long sections of Pac balancing himself on the top rope, making faces while everyone stood around 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
