Is there an Applebee’s in Times Square? I haven’t set foot in there since it was reimagined as a Midwestern tourist destination.

You kind of answered your own question there. What kind of Midwestern tourist destination wouldn't have an Applebees?

it reminds me of an old (like at least 20 years) Walmart commercial where the gist was some woman who would always go to Walmart when she had to travel so there was somewhere familiar.

Young Bucks vs. Top Flight

Hell yeah. I've been waiting very patiently for them to run this one again since Darius returned, and they had the killer six man with AR Fox vs DT at one of the Dynamites we just went to. Nothing against their earlier bouts in Jacksonville, but the high flying N64 style sprints really need a crowd (and plus you've got a fully healthy Darius, and a Dante with three more years experience under his belt - win/win)

so all those scenarios about Shida turning heel on Storm... and a week later, Saraya/Storm pretty much turn heel postmatch on Willow?

Bucks/Top Flight is slightly more fun when you realize the Bucks are pretty much heels.

One of these weeks Starks/Andretti will escape their feud with the JAS.

So, how many people would Rick Rude murder if he was alive to be on Slapfight PowerSlap?

Caught Darby Allin vs. Kushida. I wish it went longer but that was probably one of Allin's better matches. He sold the fuck outta the arm and I liked his Scorpion Deathlock into a cradle pin (he needs a name for it honestly).

MJF said a bunch of words that I saw on Twitter and I don't care. Most of the Twitter comments were like "whatever, when are you gonna wrestle MJF?" or "when's Moxley getting the title back?" Honestly, he needs to just stop doing promos since he's supposedly an 'attraction' (like a car wreck on the side of the road type). His promos need to come once in awhile if at all. Otherwise, they are going to overstay their welcome and not be special anymore since he talks every week.

I guess TK told him that people were pissed about his making fun of Takeshita last week and just said don't come out and to stay backstage. I would have hated for MJF to have dressed down Bandido about where he's from and stole something else from YouTube (probably Ernie Ladd's comment about Mr. Wrestling II wearing a mask and 'only criminals wear masks' and applying it to Bandido).

Probably read the room with the crowd reactions and Shida getting overlooked for Storm. AEW originals in Baker and Shida as well.

Bandito is OVER. Awesome fucking match. 

Kinda miffed there wasn't more about Jay tbh. A 10-bell salute would've been appropriate, I think 🤷🏻

 

Edit: considering some of the shitty online discourse I've seen in the MINUTES since the show ended, I wanted to clarify that my frustration is with whichever Warner exec dweeb refused to let Jay be on their cable TV.

It's the Last Supper and it's his secondary finish.

BCC! BCC!  Makes everybody better!  That was fucking awesome.  The GUNNS!  BUTTCHEEKS!  TINY PAUNTS!  They are wearing sweatpaunts!  ASS BOYS TALK! ASS BOYS TALK!  ASS BOYS TALK!  Max Caster curses a lot!  Hangman notices that he isn't currently doing anything.  Is he getting back the Elite or the Dark Order?  Jake Hagar is the Secret Super Worker of AEW!  Ricky Starks is on a roll!  GREAT kick to the face by Hagar!  DADDY MAGIC waits until picture in picture to CHEAT!  Cool Hand and  Daddy Magic BRING OUT THE TABLE!  Ricky punches HAgar in the fucking FACE A LOT!  Nice Spinning DDT by Ricky!  Ricky hits Daddy Magic and Cool Hand and hits a Spear for the win!  That was perfectly fine.  I await Starks vs Garcia.  Bryan Danielson!  Motherfucking EL BANDIDO!  Ooo!  That will rule!

KUSHIDA!  He's all over the place these days.  It's Darby Allin!  It's strange that Allin and Cassidy aren't on RAMPAGE this week.  Allin goes to the mat with KUSHIDA!  This is fun.  So Allin, Cassidy and Danielson are on the biggest current rolls.  Cassidy's match didn't quite live up to his latest matches.  Danielson MIGHT have had a better match against Bandido than against Takeshita.  Allin is having a New Japan Juniors match and it's awesome. The crowd is fucking MOLTEN for a KUSHIDA match and I don't think a lot of folks in Fresno watch IMPACT!  Strange!  Scorpion Death Drop!  KUSHIDA CRUSHES Allin's shoulder off the apron!  DARBY GOES FOR A RYDER KICK AND KUSHIDA SECURE THE JUJIKATAME ON THE FLOOR!  KUSHIDA CRUSHES ALLIN'S SHOULDER OFF THE TOP!  LA DOJO Dudes give STING a towel to throw in!  Allin hits the EGYPTIAN LEGLOCK FOR THE WIN!   That was great!  What a fucking awesome episode of professional wrestling.  AEW RULES THE MOTHERFUCKING WORLD!

I think Saraya was always meant to be a heel, but they knew she was not about to be booed in her first appearances back, so they made her a "face" but kept her pretty disingenuous. I don't think it was too quick, I think she was always on the line, but turning her back on Shida in that one promo cemented it.

Not super thrilled that in the end, they are going with homegrown vs outsiders, but Saraya and Storm should be super fun assholes
