[Grackle Party]

As usual AEW delivers on PPV. Vaquer is amazing and needs to be scooped up. happy ZSJ went over.

Mina's quest to find someone to dance in sync with her continues

 

[GKJ]

That was one of Mercedes better matches. Too bad it was in New York and the crowd absolutely booed her lol

She’s never getting cheered over Britt anyways

Mox looked annoyed by Naito the entire match...

I fell asleep so catching up on last 3 matches

 

[Fro]

Swerve/Osprey...damn!

Naito can't keep up any more. Considering his last appearance in the states, this was much better than expected, but still he's very clearly working on bad knees

DMD is going to shred the CEO in the promo department. My god.

 

[Grackle Party]

I think Osprey is going to lose to Garcia this wed. They start an angle where he cracked under the pressure, Callis family turns on him. Maybe a program with MJF for Wembley, keeps both of them away from titles for a while

I didn’t see it but it’s probably a combination of that and just not having his working boots on, which happens. He’s gotta save those knees for G1

I get it from the business sense why you have Brit go after Mercedes (my expectations for this feud and match are low)

But what is going to be the kayfabe reason for Brit to return for the mid card title and not go after Toni?

A battle over who gets custody of the 3 initials gimmick, C..E..O vs D...M...D

 

[Fro]

I mean, you're right...but I view it as BB returning to make sure she is the focus of the division. AeW signs this hot free agent who is trying to act as the top draw and BB is proving she is that person

Toni may have the big title, but she isn't the hot free agent

Not kayfabe, but from a booking perspective hopefully it's Hayter returning real f***ing soon. The womens division is already stacked. DMD back and then Hayter (hopefully). Dang....

They need to get Kamille on TV. She can be big if they build her up right.

When I have seen her for NWA she was green...granted it's been a bit...but feels Jade 2.0 if she hasn't been training right

They definitely have similar short comings, but she has huge star power too. Book around the issues, let her get reps.

Of course she will, Mercedes is an awful promo.

Wanting two titles instead of one.

Or one she’s never held.

Report: Details On Will Ospreay Facing Swerve Strickland At AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door

A new report provides more information about the match between Will Ospreay and Swerve Strickland at AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door.

www.wrestlezone.com

Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful (via Fightful Select) reports that, per sources, that Will Ospreay, a long-time friend of Swerve Strcikland’s, was tired of seeing the narrative that Swerve was a placeholder champion until he would win the title at AEW All In.

Per Sapp, sources said that Ospreay talked to AEW higher-up. He expressed that he wanted to put Strickland over to help get rid of this talking point. The report notes that Ospreay already has big creative plans in store for the year. With this in mind, he had no issue with it. Sapp writes that Ospreay wanted to set an example that for AEW to succeed, it had to be a team effort.

The report also notes that Ospreay made his approach after he won the AEW International Championship. It was noted that he wanted to show that nobody should be above losing to the world champion.

Is Ospreay as good of a human being as he is a wrestler? Impossible but at least he's trying, lol.
