AEW All Elite Wrestling #8: Grabbing the Brass Ring of Honor

[Fro]

It's another way to get ppl on tv...they could do some very different character development with it

 

[Unholy Diver]

I can't see how Moxley bleeds here, this might be like breaking Goldberg's streak

 

[Unholy Diver]

Uno should probably wear a shirt or a singlet

 

[Emperoreddy]

MJF is awesome.

Saraya is awful.

Uno should probably not be on dynamite. I kind of sort of like Silver, but I don't care to see any other Dark Order members on TV... ever.

Interested to see how this All Access show does

Right. I think it really depends on what they do with it. If it's a "day in the life" type of a reality show... hard pass. But if it's more of a biographical perspective... yeah, I love that shit.

 

[Soldier13Fox]

Jarrett wins the battle royal because he probably would've broke a hip if he was tossed out.

You're not wrong. Still love JJ, great heel. Speaking of that group, I actually really like Sonjay Dutt but I have no idea what his purpose is right now. Lethal and, obviously, JJ can cut great promos. They don't need a manager to speak for them.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Uno absolutely shouldn't be main eventing Dynamite.

As for the announcement. Meh, but it does get Power Slap off the air, so that's a win for me

 

[TD Charlie]

Didn’t care for that show. White hot crowd though. Opening match was fun.

All Access likely turns into BTE within the first couple months, but they’ll do a lot of “come along with Daddy Magic this week for his road trip to the next city!” Type shit. It could be entertaining. It could suck real bad.

Looks like Big Bill likes to scissor too.......I mean - he really likes to scissor.

 

[Grackle Party]

Was hoping the announcement would have been a streaming deal. They really need the ROH library and AEW library under one roof (HBO max). Plus a home for the ROH weekly series and aew / roh ppvs. honor club isnt going to cut it.

 

[Khelandros]

Instead of doing an hour long reality show after Dynamite, just make Dynamite and hour longer. Get more people on TV every week.

 

[CDJ]

That MJF/Danielson promo/segment was Wrasslin’

Students of the game those two.

Dutt was originally there as a manager for Singh and then they paired Lethal with them I guess as a worker more than anything for tag matches, and now Jarrett too for some reason.

Isn't that one of the complaints about WWE?

Better off making Rampage 2 hours and making it somewhat meaningful.

JJ being one of the better things in wrestling in 2023 wasn’t on my bingo card

Mine neither, but I distinctly remember a few months before he debuted I was telling a friend I’d love to see him there. I had no reason to believe it was happening and he may even have been a WWE employee at the time. Double J belongs on tv, and in front of thousands of people that love to hate him.

I can't believe I'm watching Jeff Jarrett wrestle on mainstream TV in 2023.

If someone had told me back in the late 1990s/early 2000s that in 2023 I would watch a mainstream wrestling program that in the same event included appearances by Chris Jericho, Christian, Billy Gunn, and Jeff Jarrett, I would of told you that you were off your rocker.

Who would have thought Billy Gunn would be more over in 2023 than at any other non-DX part of his career?

One of my least favourite wrestlers ever but I'm enjoying him with The Acclaimed.

 

[Big Daddy Cane]

I find myself laughing every time JJ is on the screen. The gimmick and the dramatic selling is very comical in a charming way. Respect to the old guy still at it.

 

[JackSlater]

Jarrett is awesome, loved him in the 90s and took some enjoyment from him even in TNA. I figured he'd end up like the rest of AEW's retirement home signings but from what I've seen he's been fun. At the very least the guy knows how to work his gimmick.

 

[CDJ]

Nice to see Lance Archer/Jake Roberts back

He’s been excellent this whole time in aew. Better than he was in his wwe prime imo. Dude looks just as good as he did 20 years ago too

 

[Troublesome 85]

The whole Sayara story line sucks and she sucks.

This PPV feels very ho hum to me. I just need to catch up on AEW probably

Hearing BAAAAAD things about the ROH taping

Huh? I have read most of it and it all sounds really good and the card for Super Card of Honor sounds amazing. I did read that they kind of f***ed the crowd for the 2nd set of tapings by making it to long but that is really the only negative I have seen.

 

[CDJ]

need Hobbs to win the ladder match on Wednesday

 

[Grackle Party]

Big Bill? More like Giant Jobber
