No reason give as to why Britt is out of the match. 26 minutes ago, porksweats said: I'm okay with this change! I mean, I'm personally a Baker fan so its a little disappointing but I think a Soho/Storm match will deliver more than a triple threat. It's an injury to Dr Britt Baker, doesn't say what: https://twitter.com/AEW/status/1618251718709628928 1 1

I was playing Warzone last night with some bros, so I missed Dark (but I did know Britt was making a rare appearance from the thumbnail) - Im gonna try to get that in this afternoon before Dyn-o-mite. Good looks dudes.
Greggulator Posted January 25, 2023 Posted January 25, 2023 I believe absolutely zero of the “Random WBD Exec has it out for a Briscoe because of objectionable Tweets from. years ago” story. Is there someone who is like 48th highest on the org chart vetoing AEW roster moves? Because I can assure you that is highly unlikely. My real guesses are: They didn’t want to travel from rural Delaware because of the time commitment and they have families/money was not worth it/added to their mystique. 1
Casey Posted January 26, 2023 Posted January 26, 2023 Sammy had tweets about raping Sasha Banks and I’m supposed to believe WBD was okay with that and sending him to therapy or whatever, but homophobic tweets are where they draw the line? Yeah I don’t buy the WBD blocking it story either.
Goitre Posted January 26, 2023 Posted January 26, 2023 Wrestling fans are all across the socio-economic spectrum. I’m guessing WBD have people who oversee their programmes. Maybe, there’s a person who keeps an eye on AEW, one of their investments, and maybe they assigned someone with at least a semblance of knowledge of the industry. And maybe that person knew of the Briscoes. Wrestling fans are everywhere, even if a lot of us share the same closet.

Yeah I don’t buy the WBD blocking it story either. WBD was very hands off with AEW until the pizza cutter/light tube stuff. Even then, that was fucking with their advertising dollars so you will expect someone to intervene there. Moreover, Sammy got punished with the quickness. Tony took it out of their hands. 1

Andrew POE! Posted January 26, 2023 Posted January 26, 2023 (edited) Get well DEAN~! Just watched Bryan Danielson vs Brian Cage and it's probably one of Danielson's worst matches but one of Cage's best matches if that even makes any sense. Brian Cage practically no sold his way into the finish to get pinned. Fucking midcarder of a world champion MJF attacked afterwards. Dynamite is great so far because I don't have to hear MJF talk. EDIT: I spoke too soon. MJF gave a promo backstage and made a comment that should get him in hot water ("I'm not the first Jew to run away from a blue eyed man") but probably won't.

Andrew POE! Posted January 26, 2023 Posted January 26, 2023 Honestly, the ROH announcing team and the ROH ring announcer are a lot better than AEW's usual crew. Tony Schiavone, Tazz and Excalibur are not very good at this point. Mark Briscoe vs Jay Lethal deserves to be the main event. 3
The Natural Posted January 26, 2023 Author Posted January 26, 2023 The Jay Briscoe tribute video, Mark Briscoe vs. Jay Lethal and the roster coming out was so poignant. Has me beefing in the early hours here in the UK. RIP Jay Briscoe xxx. 6

Gordi the BJW fan Posted January 26, 2023 Posted January 26, 2023 That was perfect. Hug somebody. Get well, DEAN! 10
Cobra Commander Posted January 26, 2023 Posted January 26, 2023 things I remember from this card Ricky and Andretti are still stuck on Jericho Island and this time Sammy goes over Andretti. Darby beats Buddy Matthews, Sting uses his bat to stop a run-in, Samoa Joe emerges on the screen Jungle Hook beats up on Ethan Page/Matt Hardy Well, if you're gonna ask Brian Cage to do anything, arm work is what you'd ask of him. Next week we get Bryan and Timothy Thatcher. Britt Baker was in a match but then she wasn't and then she did a sports entertainment runin to get Ruby a win over Toni Storm The main event was everything it should have been 2
JLowe Posted January 26, 2023 Posted January 26, 2023 (edited) Jay Lethal's visible sobbing got to me big time. Fantastic match. Couldn't pay much attention to the rest of the show due to stupid work. Also, get well soon Dean! Sending healing vibes. Edited January 26, 2023 by JLowe 4
The Natural Posted January 26, 2023 Author Posted January 26, 2023 Bryan Danielson vs. Timothy Thatcher and Darby Allin vs. Samoa Joe III next week. Jon Moxley vs. Adam Page also! 3
hammerva Posted January 26, 2023 Posted January 26, 2023 (edited) You have to give a ton of credit to Jay Lethal in the match. It looked like he was going to break down before he entered the ring. And still put on a really good match and thank god we got Ian Riccaboni on commentary. Because we didn't get "wrestling commentator" we got psychologist, friend, and when need be wrestling commentator Ian. Not knocking Caprice he was great too Edited January 26, 2023 by hammerva 8
Casey Posted January 26, 2023 Posted January 26, 2023 We’re definitely getting a women’s Blood & Guts match and I’m here for it. 5 1
For Great Justice Posted January 26, 2023 Posted January 26, 2023 It would feel weird to assess this one as a good or bad Dynamite because that really wasn’t the point. Next week will be outstanding 3
