Its funny I shit talk AEW but I watch it over WWE. I watch NJPW more tho. Sucks that after Forbidden Door all those guys went away. Idk why Shibata made an appearance at Forbidden Door. Hasnt done anything with Ospreay or Cassidy since.



Probably his dad and his ties too. Hook is like a lazier Orange Cassidy. Now I hate to admit Orange is growing on me. Out of all the wrestlers kids wrestling now I like him the least.

Dude

Please don’t tell me you place Domenik over anyone

He’s legit channel changing bad

Maybe now HHH in charge he will not suck. Idk.

Im obsessed with United Empire and Jay White. United Empire legit have no bad wrestlers. Would love more Jeff Cobb in AEW and Aaron Henare.

I love Great O’Khan from the little I have been exposed to him.
 
The whole Jungle Boy - Cage angle went from good to idk

What was the point of luchasaurus being a heel for 2 weeks. I hope its a ploy and someone else gets involved to help Jungle Boy.

The long awaited trek north. There are larger venues but it is possible to sell 9,000 tickets to a wrestling event at the CocaCola Coliseum. Maybe if it is successful then Revolution will take place from a larger venue. ScotiaBank Arena is open March 4 & 5.

Rumor is that the WWE has an exclusive deal with Scotia Bank

Last night's show was so fun. Had to watch it in segments this morning but boy did they knock this one out. Also, it seems like Kenny's return is imminent

Just watched some highlights and I thought Jungle Boy's promo was pretty good (considering how bad he is at promos). Jungle Boy explained why Luchasaurus protected Christian for 2 weeks. It is not great storytelling, but it makes sense.

The Jericho vs Mox promo was incredible. Great stuff. I hope they do not put the title on Jericho though. I do not want to see Jericho vs Punk in 2022. Mox vs Punk, that, I wanna see.

Daniel Garcia vs Danielson was great. A little surprised by the result, but it was rather well done. It does elevate Garcia, so why not.

The star of the night was Ricky Starks. That guy rules.

Lol seems like I missed a good night. Think my box records the shows. Was too lazy to switch my ps4 and cable box

IMO changing the title too much the world one lessens it. Dont like Mox but have him hold interim until Punk is back then a unification match.

Starks is a future world champ. Hobbs maybe too. AEW does have some younger talented guys I can see in world title or tnt title reigns. Starks and Hobbs are 2. Daniel Garcia, MJF are others.

AEW has a lot of young talent.

Honestly, if they end up failing, it won't be because they did not have the right guys, it will be because they did not push them the right way. What we saw last night is a sign that they will be pushing guys the right way. Starks, Jungle Boy and Garcia were all elevated yesterday.

I hope they stop booking Wardlow like shit.

FTW title is A-title now that HOOK has it

I thought Starks did a great job particularly the last two weeks. He sold the offense from a glorified Santino, and also sold the frustration during the match. Wins, cuts a quick promo and loses to Hook gracefully, then cuts a very good promo to establish himself as a babyface.

I thought both Starks AND the FTW Title were elevated big time last night. It was a really well done segment.

I only saw the highlights but I also agree considering it’s not supposed to be a real belt. They didn’t need to do an Atlantic title with that.

I only wish they put a little more emphasis on the connection Hook would have to the title. They mentioned it on commentary, but i thought perhaps Hook would give a nod over to Tazz or something. Perhaps they save that for next week though.

10$ he and the Bucks beat UE for the Trios Title at All Out.

Not betting against that, that's my prediction too

Next week the Undisputed Elite will come back, I'll guarantee anything it will be the Bucks asking Cole to partner with them for the tourney but he will tell them he's already told KOR/Fish that he's in with them.

Then we get the Hangman teases but he ends up tagging with Dark Order and Kenny comes to the rescue

Weakest in United Empire is that dude Franseco or whatever. OKhan is great for his goofy gimmick. Henare is killing G1 currently.

Ospreay is the better wrestler but Jay is the better promo giver.

When my check hits Im getting shirts of both

Oh and Jeff Cobb/Scott Norton in Chicago was awesome

I def need an Ospreay shirt. I have the original Jay White BC one and just got the new black and white catalyst one with the switchblades on the back.

AEW's young guys like Starks, Dante Martin, Jungle Boy, HOOK, and Garcia are awesome ! I'm glad they all got a big piece of the pie last Dynamite ! Garcia really showed well and the ending builds up Garcia and protects Danielson. And Starks future continues to glow !! :thumbu:

Random insights about the AEW roster from Eddie Kingston. Interpret the answers any way you see fit.

 
The Bucks don’t do everything Sammy does and Sammy does his stuff amazingly well. Besides, Eddie shouldn’t be talking about how anybody performs in the ring.

I legitimately think it's all real to Kingston. There is no kayfabe or shoot.

That’s 90 percent of the appeal with him, and I’m ok with it. He comes across as totally unhinged in all the best ways.

I think Sammy is really good as a flyer and a rag doll. Far better than the Bucks.

For any team v team match I’m taking the Bucks. It’s apples to oranges
