AEW All Elite Wrestling #9: Mox Aggressor Brings the Blood

[TheBeastCoast]

What a dumb idiot, invoking TNA Sean Morley when talking about Shelton Benjamin. Idk how you can watch last weeks match and even make that comparison. He was getting huge reactions to his moves. He’s still an amazing athlete and better worker than the heavy majority of the industry- now he’s in a place that emphasizes work rate. LET HIM COOK BEFORE HE ACTUALLY IS WASHED!

It’s not even like he’s beating Darby! He’s beating Lio Rush and maybe Sammy Guevara! If he gets some wins it will actually mean something when he loses- it’s not like he’s going to be in the world title picture or anything

Yeah to even insinuate that Shelton is washed after that match last week is honestly just completely ludicrous lol off the plot on this take from Dave.

John Campea said in the live chat of his new sports channel Filthy Sports live show, that Nigel McGuinness will be a guest on the show "sometime soon". Nigel's girlfriend is Campea's wife's best friend so he's frequently at his house for example.

Filthy Sports
We're going to have Nigel McGuiness on the show sometime soon

BCC is unbelievable as some NWO stable. Yuta is goofy, marina is goofy, claudio is goofy, Mox is the only believeable one. Maybe Pac

 

[CDJ]

Marina is my only problem with it- she shouldn’t be used as an enforcer against grown ass male wrestlers. She should however be beating the shit out of any woman/referee/extra personnel


Beyond that I find this angle compelling

I feel like Marina is the most believable one, we know she couldn't wrestle before, and her verbal skills were minimal, maybe choking and manhandling people is the only thing she can do, she at least had real MMA experience, while Moxley was out losing in YMCA tournaments to grocery store clerks

She does have “real mma experience” but it’s important to note she has 1 win and it’s against a soccer mom with 0 wins in her career. She was finished within 45 seconds against some bad fighters in her other 2 pro fights. We are not exactly talking about Rhonda or even Shayna here

I didn't know that about Mox and as someone who works in a grocery store, I now have some belief that I could beat him!

You're looking at your next world champ!

 

[Grackle Party]

The BCC stuff is just ok so far im intrigued but it needs a little more juice than beating up jobbers

 

[CDJ]

I just watched a Mox jiujitsu match against a white belt and that man is not very talented, I respect him for going out there and publicly working on it though.

He’s probably slightly ahead of me skill-wise and that’s maybe me being humble. We probably have the same amount of stripes. For perspective I almost got choked out by a 16 year old girl and im not sure he would know how to defend it either after watching him roll

 

[TheBeastCoast]

It does sound like they might not be the BCC anymore and are the Deathriders. Which would make sense.

So, I have a lot of extra time these days and I might start watching some AEW... what are the names of their shows? Dynamite... I don't recall the others

Rampage. Collision.

Dynamite is 8:00 EST on Wednesdays. Their flagship show. Where many of their main event storylines, talent, and very high profile matches take place

Rampage is 10:00 EST on Fridays (for now). Rumors of this show leaving and to be replaced by another, but as of now, it's existence is mostly for matches featuring lower card talent, squash matches and giving secondary storylines to wrestlers not on the show as much (IE Harley Cameron and Saraya). Only 1 hour.

Collision is at 8:00 EST on Saturdays. It's the secondary show. Has some main event talent and even a few wrestlers exclusive to the show (House of Black, FTR). It's usually there to push midcard storylines, and even add smaller details to some of the main storylines. It's also been used in the last couple of months to push talent that's either new or returning (Hologram, Outrunners, Kyle O'Reilly).

I watch Dynamite, try to watch every Collision, and I don't watch Rampage personally. If you wanted to get into it, I'd highly recommend watching Dynamite and if you don't have the time or the desire for Collision then I'd at least watch some of AEW's YT videos or a review online.


Now the confusing part. Tony Khan bought Ring Of Honor that was going out of business and features some of their belts on the program. Their weekly show is Thursdays. I don't watch it as it's hidden behind a subscription, but it's not super seperate so for example the ROH world champion Mark Briscoe is defending his championship in a ladder match this Wednesday on Dynamite even though the belt being defended represents ROH and not AEW.

the detailed reply is much appreciated. I watched AEW initially but they lost me after the first Stadium Stampede match. I tried getting into again when Black and Andrade came over, but I didn't get into it again. But it's been a long time now, so I'm gonna try again... I managed to find everything on the high seas, including the ROH show. So I've downloaded the last episode of each, along with TNA. So we'll see how it goes.
