    For what, exactly? Punk started the fight twice over.

     

    That's not what I heard. The Bucks superkicked Punk's door down and then Kenny did the One Winged Angel to Larry. 

    Serious answer: I'm not earnestly calling for anyone to get fired or bought out but selfishly I just don't like The Young Bucks as wrestlers and they are an instant fast-forward for me, so like, if they left AEW that would be great. It also seems to me that a lot of personality conflicts stemmed from The Elite's passive aggressiveness and even if Tony doesn't want to fire them he should absolutely strip them of their EVP titles moving forward.

    While I agree with that in theory, in practice they ran Britt v Nyla as heel/heel and it seemed to go over like a fart in church 

    The Britt match was also Nyla Rose: snarling monster heel and not Nyla Rose: smartass quoter of Sly Stalone. I think the dynamic works a little better vs Jade because you can at least buy that they are equals physically so it's more of a personality conflict/kaiju battle vs the match with Britt, which naturally had Britt as an underdog that no one wanted to root for.

  3. Voted for Vikingo/Laredo Kid/Taurus. 

    I don't normally like the triple threat formula of "one guy sells on the outside while the other two wrestle" but they at least had the decency to commit straight murder to get someone to sell on the outside. I'm convinced that Vikingo is some kind of space alien with some of the stuff he does but it was Taurus who impressed me the most in this match.

  4. Dalton Castle was a consistent highlight for me during 2016-2019 ROH, in a sea of Adam Coles and Matt Tavens he really stood out. Glad he's getting a spotlight. I just wish he hadn't fucked his back up so badly. Sassy queen who is also a technical marvel was such a good character but at least he is still able get by with The Boys and his character work. That promo was some of his best work too. Really looking forward to the match with Jericho

    Oh yeah, Hangman's promo was the promo of a lifetime. Another one that gave me goosebumps. A younger me would say that guy is my hero. Instead I'll just say that so much of what he spoke of is what I feel. I'm depressed, I'm anxious, the meds aren't working, but I go on to another day. I want Hangman to win so bad now and if he does, I'm guessing MJF "cashes in" and wins the title himself.

    For real, I'm someone who's struggled their entire life with anxiety and depression and Hanger's promo got me to tear up a bit. I felt seen. What a guy.

    Pretty sure Spears turns on them tomorrow. If nothing else, it makes the feud four vs four instead of five faces vs three heels.

    Did she? What did she do?

    Promo segment with Renee, quoted Judge Dredd, set up a match vs Anna JAS

  7. I love Adam Page: Fashion Icon almost as much as I love Adam Page: Grown-ass man.

    Billy Gunn looks great but you can tell he's lost a step in ring, he's about to turn 59 though so he's still super impressive.

    Jungle Boy is spinning his wheels, I said it in the discord but I feel like the move would have been for him to squash Christian and move on if Christian was unable to have the match. It's starting to feel less like I want to see the heels get their comeuppance and more that Jungle Boy is becoming a choke artist of Lugaresque proportions. 

    Shawn Spears as a face doesn't smell right. He still needs to redeem himself to Wardlow somehow, I know he got powerbombed into dirt but they should at least have had him make a save or something.

    Glad Nyla is getting TV time. 

    Main event was great. How did Pac's ear start bleeding?

    He does not appear to be a head and neck specialist, which I would think you would need for this

    I really hope this is just a case of Meltzer playing telephone and that Sampson gave the final approval after a series of specialists took a look at Saraya and cleared her first.

    Which Promotion Andre's affiliated with that's preventing him from working New Japan? I thought for sure he signed with AEW he'd be touring Japen from time to time

    Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I thought it was that CMLL is affiliated with NJPW and Andrade burned that bridge

    Tony (Schiavone) using the "IT'S STING" voice when he said "NATIONAL SCISSORING DAY" early on was hilarious. 

    Taz saying "You know Ton, I've experienced a lot of great scissoring days over the years but this one is shaping up to be the best one yet" got me

    Wait, wait, WAIT: if there's a Death Triangle trios match on Friday now ... does that mean no PAC/Trent?!?!

    PAC/Trent is scheduled for Battle of the Belts, Pac could always pull double duty and just take it easy in the trios match?
