  1. While the main event is likely safe, I think that given the overall euphoria over last night there’s some real risk of ‘AEW’ and ‘CM Punk’ chants hijacking the show. Vegas is more a casual town though so maybe not. Good thing they are in Philly or Brooklyn tonight.

    Multiple video game signs at last night's show. At least two Sephiroth disparaging signs (Kefka >>>>> Seph), Guilty Gear sign... Love this shit.

    I saw “The worst Fire Emblem is better than the best Paper Mario” which is just goddamn bullshit and Thousand Year Door is a top five all time JRPG

    I enjoy that AEW has established characters and storylines compelling enough for us to go through all this discussion before the show has even aired. Good job. 

    Edit: if Kenny's losing tonight and/or tomorrow, he could also lose with excuses leading to Hangmin being the first to beat him decisively. 

    I can get down with this idea where Omega loses both the AAA and Impact titles via shenanigans and then works himself into a shoot (brother) demanding a “clean” match with Page for the AEW, which he loses clean in the middle due to lack of Elite interference.

    Who are some wrestlers or tag teams that you haven't seen enough of that you need a deep dive on? Note this can be anyone from anytime even if footage doesn't exist. 

    After this last week, I realized I have not watched nearly enough Midnight Express and British Bulldogs. On the singles side, maybe someone like Ray Stevens and, honestly, I haven't watched enough Liger. 

    Adrian Street. The idea of a Goldust gimmick that works British style sounds amazing but I’ve seen basically nothing 

  5. The Christian TNA matches are all good but need to be watched with some context in my opinion. He’s well established now as one of the best 15 minute TV match guys in the past 20 years, but that template didn’t really exist until this TNA run and his return to WWE, the big ECW run and later years. He wasn’t that guy for the vast majority of his first big WWE run (there are exceptions). So the TNA Christian matches will feel like “Christian matches”, but that was all before this was a well known thing. YMMV.

  6. Count me into the group that thinks Christian is getting stretchered to end this show with the announcers selling “what does this mean for All Out?! Tune into Dynamite to find out!” as they close

    This would also lead nicely into Christian’s heel turn on Jungle Boy upon his return. “I was out there getting sent to the hospital, and where were you?!’ type thing.

  7. Thinking of who you put Miro against at the PPV and it’s interesting. After Christian, you’ve got Jungle Boy and OC, but I don’t think you’d want to feed either to Miro right now for fear of them getting a “choker” vibe (neither one can really JUUUUST LOSE a big match again). I presume Mox will have Tanahashi (though Mox/Miro would rule). The other guys on this plane of the card are mostly heels (or Darby, who we all presume will be busy).

    Eddie Kingston maybe?

    For the record (as I am listening to it now) - I think Dave confused Curtis Axel with Bo Dallas

    Either way - basically he meant them going back to basically the start of NXT TV (So when folks like Seth Rollins, Big E and the Wyatts were all champs). He specifically said pre-Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens time period

    Yeah see I’d be cool with that. To me at least, Gargano/Andrade is both the apex of NXT and the start of its downfall.

  9. I don’t even mind turning NXT into the Power Plant with 26 fungible CAW Mark Jindrak templates. I mean, I’ll probably watch that show. But if that report is true, yeah, Triple H is at a dead end in his career (until the old man changes his mind again, anyway). Not sure where he goes from here other than sucking it up, sir-yes-sir and cranking up “Move Along” for the Diva Search.
