This kind of stuff needs to be called out by everyone. How completely cooked is your site when you have to resort to stuff like this continuously.

My ideal woman is Skye Blue in street fights.
That is more than Hook has said in his entire run
Same
This is why I’m surprised. TK is definitely a World Title closes the show guy (which I agree with), but it just feels to me like the tag match is being built to be the main.
Kind of feels like FTR/C&C might be the All Out main event
If they were paying attention, they would’ve known Queen Aminata did this
Zandokan Jr and Difunto getting the main against Brodido has me fired up
Wardlow finally got on the good gas and immediately tore a pec.
I would say something like a four team ladder match would be a TK thing to do for a short turnaround PPV, but with a Coffin Match already on the show, maybe not.
A real goddamn worker
Say his full name: Current TNT Champion, future world champion, future GOAT, the Protostar Kyle Fletcher
Red Death
Even Bandido pops for Mistico
One cool thing about tonight’s Dynamite is that the past, present and future of AEW were all very prominently featured in pretty specific ways. You can see who TK has that belief in to keep pushing the company forward.
I could see him with FTR and Stoke at some point
Give Adam Priest the graphic. Holy shit.
Alex and Mercedes had a damn good one. TK very clearly committed to Windsor being a big player in the division and deservedly so.
A good day to remind you that even if watching the fed wasn’t a moral failure, they’re booking the worst stuff that no pro wrestling fan should even want to see. All of what they have planned for counter programming AEW would have been a bad idea in 2013.
This is what I’m hoping for.
CMLL always with the 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Fuck off
Sounds like something that should’ve happened in 2013. Or never.
Other than Toronto (where it won’t happen), the first place on the schedule where the two ring set up works is Daily’s Place.
Not to be a hater, but I hope Lauderdale never gets to book Arez again
Make of it what you want, but Josh has picked up two wins this week.
Red Death is the real shit.
I don’t have a lot to add to the AEW/Max conversation, but one thing I do know is if the numbers weren’t overwhelmingly positive for AEW the fed would know that and be leaking shit to everyone. That isn’t happening and instead they’re doing the kind of stuff they did Wednesday.
I'm going to say this: I don't know that we appreciate just how special of a run Bandido is having across AEW/ROH right now and just how much Bandido has put into all of this physically and mentally. He's the best in the world right now, IMO.
CRU just absolutely lapping Top Flight in no time with fewer opportunities is crazy. CRU go do cool stuff in CMLL and Top Flight hang out with Scorpio Sky.
Speedball getting Mistico minutes right now in the Grand Prix
You know Bandido is on another level this year because he’s breaking out the double birds
Me too. He is everything you look for in a world champion. In and out of the ring.
That night Hechicero had Dragon in hell on Collision really did change his career
I’m willing to put up with Sammy if get RUSH minutes
Lee and Xelhua 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Good for STP. Guys that have consistently been a highlight of ROH and capitalize on every opportunity they get on AEW programming.
Yeah im ready for the Von erichs to get a proper tag run. They don't need Sammy or Dustin anymore #rohdbd
I need STP to win here so we can get the Von Erich’s integrated into the tag division
I worked with his dad for awhile
Shocked that Oliver isn’t an ID’er. I thought he’d be one of the first.
They need to be doing hand checks
Taz getting a banner in the ECW Arena on Saturday night. Being inducted into their Hardcore Hall of Fame.
Darby really might be the greatest TV wrestler ever.
Good shirt available at the AEW Philly shows
He represents Bo$$ton now
Yep, you could argue he’s had the standout match at every FD (OC, Omega, Swerve). Also, having a 13 match card and none of the matches being bad is a uniquely AEW thing. Not even sure how that’s possible, but they do it.
I feel like this has always been the case with FD shows. They tend to be shows where every match is good to great, but not a lot of MOTYC.
Ospreay said “I wanna go out like Dragon”
Gabe just tried to murder his boss
Ospreay and Ibushi stopping Tanahashi killed me lol
American Gladiators hooked Wardlow up with the good stuff
Genuinely don’t care about the finish, it’s the right result.
Jamie Hayter timing injuries so she keeps getting to return in England. A real worker.
Kip Sabian it’s on sight
TK going to be trying to get him on a dual contract, which considering the state of NJPW, would be smart. Need to protect guys like that from the retirement home.
I feel like CRU might be auditioning for a spot in Super Jr Tag League.
Australia is a long ass trip to only do one show
Yeah I like everyone involved, just those four guys feel like they would match up well. Should still be fun.
Am I gonna get shit on if I say that 8-man tag would’ve been better as a standard tag with Despy/Yuya vs Hechicero/Alexander?
Killer Kross and Matt Cardona starting a feud in GCW feels like another low point for American independent wrestling. Can’t wait for people to start talking about how great it is.
Wishing Zozaya all the best in retirement.
An Esfinge-Dijak singles match and a TJP match are not things I really want out of a Friday CMLL show, but the main should be great.
Mercedes just won her 9th championship so get ready for the glorious bitching and moaning from fed fans and old white men. Hope she wins five more.
I’m probably a bigger defender of Jericho’s career than most and I don’t even think AEW should’ve given him the last extension. He absolutely helped the company at the beginning, but it’s been time to move on for awhile.
Look, I love FTR and think they’re one of the best to ever do it, but giving them the tag titles so they can lose them to Copeland and Christian is certainly a choice. Tag division is absolutely on its way back up to where it was, but the tag titles are kind of in hell.
Funny how all of the injury stuff came out so soon after the negative reactions to the WWE/ESPN/Peacock news.
One part I hate is that so many seem to not want to learn about anything beyond that. And there’s an endless amount of wrestling history on youtube that’s easily accessible for anyone.
The funniest part is all of the people that you would expect to melt down over it are the ones saying stuff like “this is why I don’t like trusting this promotion” lol
100%. It is an actual miracle that it exists.
The fans that take for granted a promotion that can just randomly give you stuff like Takeshita/Ishii and Bucks/Paragon don’t deserve said promotion.
Christian has just fit in AEW from the time he showed up. Copeland feels like a guy that came from the fed in every thing he does.
The Copeland part of this just does nothing for me and that’s ok, I don’t think every angle is going to work for everyone. I think they’re likely to have some good tag matches, but it’s all kind of long-winded otherwise.
I look forward to the press release about it having 3 million viewers or whatever nonsense they cook up
Just to remind everyone: It’s always fuck the fed
I think if he could make AEW look objectively bad, he would. When one side or the other finally stops being cryptic, we’re going to realize he wasn’t disrespected and he just wanted to go back to WWE.
Ohh I forgot about that book. Interesting
It’s a complete coincidence that this is happening the week of a PPV too lol
Need Dragon on comms, especially for ZSJ/Nigel.
This man needs a therapist.
He debuted the same month that Hayes left (February ‘94)
I was looking forward to Taz calling ZSJ/Nigel but I can’t help but be excited for Ian.
I’d like Tommy Dreamer a lot more if he had done the thing.
El Desperado said on the bird app that he’ll be at Forbidden Door.
Destruction on 9/28 would not surprise me as a date for that match. Or King of Pro Wrestling which I don’t think has a date right now, but would be October sometime.
Takeshita should be the first to win the G1 and C2 in the same year. If he doesn’t do World Tag League, they could make the schedule work.
I see Daddy Magic potential in Austin.
We gotta get Big Hech a gold chain
Some of this is on Tanahashi.
It is kind of amusing that everyone is losing it about them not pulling the trigger on a young guy when talking about Tsuji, but Takeshita is almost two years younger than Tsuji. Also, yes, the final clearly should’ve been Takeshita - Tsuji based on who was in the semis. Alas.
Why would you think that 2020’s Gedo wouldn’t do that? This is no way a defense of that decision, but Evil consistently being a draw and getting reactions is how they justify this. Which again highlights the mistake of not pulling the trigger on any of the Reiwa Musketeers or anyone under 35.
I was thinking about this the other day and if the quality of the product is as high next summer as it’s been this year, I wouldn’t be shocked if they surpass the ‘24 number.
ROH uploading the Cage of Death on YouTube a day after that Forbidden Door cage match is announced is not a coincidence.
Nope
She’s booked for the Senjo show that day
As Don Callis said, “must be free kool aid day at the Stamford supermax”
I think that’s smart. If it were to leak that conversations were happening about a dual contract with a specific talent, the one guarantee would be that the fed is going to try to sign that person out from under them.
Persephone getting the FD spot (well-earned) makes me think she has a dual contract.
Shota’s fallen off so bad that Mox doesn’t even give him the FD call anymore.
