it’s been a bit dull over the last year tbh, AEW might be a mess at times but it’s generally more consistently entertaining. NXT has had some great wrestling sure but it’s just all a bit :man_shrugging: atm. That said, I am interested to see what Edge does tonight

Can’t believe they didn’t give Christian this theme back

Really like how while Edge has the air of the doc from back to the future, Christian has the permanently surprised off the wagon face of Christian Slater

Yesssss
Genuinely believe this was the idea last year and its been postponed by the pandemic. Doubt they’ll pour in with the dream matches immediately but as long as the options are there they have countless opportunities. Chuffed for them all.

Honestly thought this was a kafabe storyline thing you were talking about for a full ten minutes

Oh lord I didn’t even see the follow up :rofl:

Fuck me the Miro shit is so bad. I popped a little for OC coming out of the cake but otherwise it’s such bad bollix

Don’t know if anybody have seen this already, but Jay White is back! Another great promo from him laying into AEW a bit 'This is real BULLET CLUB!' Jay White is BACK! |Road to The New Beginning - YouTube

Seen the transcript but not the video, he’s the best in the game currently maaan

Definitely he is. I remember seeing him about 3 or 4 years back when he was without the beard and was in the middle of the card for WK and I didn’t see what all the fuss was about. How wrong I was.

He should shave his beard. Too many beards in wrestling now.

Woeful. To be fair the match between miro and Chucky was good but the promos are so bad. He’s the worst part about it tbh. It’s comedy bollix but he’s ridiculously bad, he’s so corny. Kip’s bollix too but if I feel like even after this feud Miros going to kill any angles with his wackiness. Think Chucky will turn heel eventually because he’s much better as a shitheel but yeah sooner this ends the better.

Usually take a lot of Meltz’s news with a pinch of salt but he’s got some really in-depth analysis here of why the deal wasn’t done beforehand, but essentially it does look like there’s a formal working relationship now between aew and new japan rather than just promoting the us title match as a one-off

which is wonderful news, get ospreay on dynamite immediately

I mean, this is what I’ve hoped for since AEW began so I won’t lie I am excited to see what they will do with this, I still don’t trust all the booking but I hope Gedo etc can keep things in check

It can only be a good thing for big tony’s booking style imho. I think a lot of the dodgiest stuff that goes on in Dynamite is actually from the boys themselves, particularly guys like Matt Hardy, Jericho or Miro who really need to be reigned in at times but he’s clearly very keen to give them a lot of creative agency. With new japan and impact involved he has to balance it with those company’s interests, and hopefully Callis and Gedo can teach him how to say no :joy:
Stepping back from 2 of his 3 jobs would probably help.
