Whatever they’re doing with her, they taking entirely too long to get there. Unless it’s her getting her shit together with Griff and Brian and they get a tag push.

I definitely agree with that, getting close to “shit or get off the pot” time

I feel like this is something where AEW and WWE are at extreme opposites.

(Full disclaimer: I'm a fan of both companies just having some fun) Given that the "misting" from Black happened way back in early December (IIRC...), if WWE was writing it, she would've joined Black in maybe 2 weeks tops, we'd get weeks of matches and re-matches involving Hollywood Blondes and HOB and they'd be split up by the end of February. Then Julia either gets put in a random tag team with another female wrestler or goes to catering and waits for the next round of releases.

AEW had a similar slow build to Wardlow's split from MJF, but all of the build to it was on the main shows.

I’d rather it be long and not short but the issue is also it not being featured enough. I don’t watch Dark, so if it’s not on TV every week it matters lesss

Is Rampage live this week? I'm only saying that because the card tonight for Dynamite is ppv quality. For one ticket to be treated to this great of a Dynamite and then also get a Rampage taping would just be an embarrassment of riches

Good to see that it's not just WWE treating Boston like a third rate wrestling city, but now AEW does it too. Boston deserves a quality ppv, period.

Rampage is live this week, yes.

WWE was going to do the 4-night run in Boston for Summerslam before covid.

Yeah, I was wanting to make the trip. But it seems off the table now unless they can somehow get the Red Sox out of Fenway long enough to do a set and not screw up the field.

They were supposed to run the garden for like 4-5 events in a row. Would’ve been a great week. Fenway would be a pretty cool spectacle but I’d be surprised if they were allowed

Uh they gave you a show with two MOTY candidates last week including one that could've easily headlined a PPV. The fact they haven't run TD Bank suggest they can't get a date in the building and where else could they do a PPV in the city?

Can't tell if Punk is supposed to be facing GWAR groupies or rejects from the local renaissance fair???

No one on TNT has told Tony to get rid of the guy with the very problematic sign in the front row?

Can you enlighten me within the limita of this site's TOU? Hard to read the signs, but the most offensive thing I can see is something about Stark putting what appears to be tomatoes in gumbo which I guess could offend some cooks from New Orleans I guess?

"Allons Brandon". Google "let's go Brandon".

You'll get your answer.

Ah I see. No need to google, I'm aware of what that means and all it entails. By the time you posted and I didn't see anything so I had no idea what you were talking about.

Anyways... As much as I joked about the ring attire the Penta and Punk match was a pretty good opener. This follow up tag match has been solid too.
 
Wow wrestling ref with integrity! This Shawn D. storyline thing reminds me of a bit of the early 90s Barry Horowitz vs Bodydonna's feud where the jobber actually won which always stuck with me as that never happened back in the day.😆
