  1. - Sydal vs Trent - Should have had a 3rd women's match in this spot. *** - OC & Shibata vs STP - *** 1/2 - BCG (c) vs AssClaimed (c) - Terrible rap from Castor. Billy is booked too strong. Give Bowens a singles push. - *** - PAC vs Okada (c) - **** 1/2 - HoB vs Kingston, Briscoe & Copeland - *** 3/4 - Willow vs Julia (c) - Did well to work around Julia's injury. New Champ! *** - KOR vs Roddy (c) - **** - Jericho vs HOOK (c) - Went too long but FTW rules made it interesting. *** 1/4 - Rosa vs Toni (c) - Longest women's PPV match in ages and Toni's best title defense. Loved Rosa dropping the face paint while Toni covered her face in white powder. - **** 1/4 - Danielson vs Opreay - My MOTN and a MOTY Contender. Danielson's selling at the end was god-tier. - ***** - Young Bucks vs FTR - Scapegoat! Tough spot after the last match but they put their bodies on the line to keep the crowd engaged. - **** 1/2 - Swerve vs Joe (c) - Now it really is Swerve's house! - **** 1/4 Good PPV with several standout matches. Might have set a record for title changes.
  2. That should be mostly an issue for the women who are lucky if they get 10 minutes of action every fortnight. Also enhancement talent who only get bought in for occasional TV jobs. Top guys like Mox, Danielson, Swerve and OC are wrestling consistently and the lower card talent have the option of working the indies between TV appearances to stay sharp and earn more money.
  3. Ospreay should be #1 Contender so I say they pull the trigger at DoN. Callis Family get involved. Swerve a huge 1st title defense and it moves along Ospreay's story of splitting from DCF and trying to convince Kyle to leave with him. Swerve/Hangman and Swerve/Ospreay at 2 of All Out/Full Gear with Ospreay winning the title.
  4. - Copeland, Briscoe & Kingston vs Top Flight Action was good. - Hobbs squash was OK. - Gunn Club vs Acclaimed was solid. - Another gold Toni promo. - BCC vs DCF Bunkhouse Brawl was fun. Nigel's clam digger apology lol. - FU! Willow going to break a spooky bitch at Dynasty. - Skye vs Hirsch was solid. - Elite vs PAC & FTR was my MOTN. - Average Rampage. Emi did well to cover for Yuka's injury. Angelo/Ruby segment was heartwarming.
  5. - The NJPW Champ is here. Mone is ticked off. - Copeland & Willow vs Brody & Julia was solid. Not enough women's action but Julia's probably still recovering from injury. Mone backing down out of respect for Copeland was a nice touch. - Joe talking crap about Swerve. - Elite vs Garcia, Penta & PAC was good. Matthew with the play-by-play lol. - Jericho Vortex segment was funny. Just don't drag the feud out. - Mariah vs Deonna was solid. Rosa destroying Luther and giving Toni a makeover was great. - Cassidy vs Taylor was solid. Vicious Trent. - Ospreay vs Claudio was my MOTN. Giant swing counter popped me. - Swerve stomping all the security was cool. Joe looking strong before he loses at Dynasty.
  6. Collision: - I like when they show footage from other promotions. Good BCC promo. - HoB vs Dante, Sydal & Andretti was good. Darius out living the gimmick. - Toni lol. Backstage Taz. - Shibata vs Moriarty was good. - ROH women finally getting some shine in AEW. - Garcia vs Angelico was solid. - Great having PAC back. Book him as much as possible before his next forced hiatus. - Toni vs AZM was great. They deserved the big crowd reaction. - New record for number of women's promos on a single show. Loved Rosa's passionate promo. - BCC vs Don Callis Family was my MOTN. BOTB X: - Taylor vs HOOK (c) was good. - Roddy vs Rocky was good but should have been a title match. Leave Kyle alone! - Another women's division promo - Athena (c) vs Velvet was my MOTN. Aminata wih the save!
  7. - Swerve's house! Penta vs Copeland (c) was my MOTN. Nice to see Cope bust out new moves. Brody smash! Willow! - Jericho sounds so condescending lol. Could be interesting if they don't drag it out. - REAL FOOTAGE! Cry me a river. Good Dax passion promo. - Ospreay shooting. Another hype promo from him. More Julia videos please. - LionHook & Shibata vs STP was solid but the finish could have been better executed. Big win for Moriarty. - Okada squash was OK. Bastard! What idiots buy AEW tickets and chant for CM Skunk? - I wonder how Deonna will factor into the Toni/Rosa feud. - Anna vs Mariah was good. Mina! Now book them in a tag match at Dynasty. - Statlander or Skye attack on Mone? - Joe vs Dustin was good. Fairly entertaining show for such a weak card.
  8. Well the video was underwhelming because of the lack of audio and only 1 camera angle but Punk was not proven right. He failed to mention the sucker punches and downplayed the choke attempt. Still hasn't admitted he did anything wrong or acted unprofessionally either.
  9. I have the opposite view. Perry showed maturity by not being the aggressor or stupidly risking his job by turning it into a fist-fight. That's the type of people AEW need backstage not immature hotheads. I'm not a violent person and would only ever hit someone in extreme self-defense to avoid serious injury or death.
  10. Seem to me the point is to bring Perry into the Elite fold. He's even been using Bucks moves in NJPW. Taking a shot at Punk after his interview is icing on the cake for TK, The Bucks & Hangman.
  11. ROH Supercard of Honor: Contender for best TK-era ROH PPV. 4 women's matches made it stand out from AEW PPV's. Stardom talent got over in their showcase match. Appreciated the continuity with Mariah, Wardlow and AssClaimed cameos. BCG vs Archer/Suzuki/Zayne was a nice surprise. Mark & Billie winning titles was the right call. Athena still the Forever Champ. A cpouple of matches went too long. Stream quality was a bit poor... Honor Club needs an overhaul. Props to Billie Starkz & Trish Adora who worked 5 & 6 matches respectively in the last week. Collision: - FTR vs Top Flight was good. Wish TF had won. - PAC vs Jobber was an OK squash. Another big match set up for Dynasty. - LionHook vs STP was solid. Ogogo is still employed? I like Shibata being added to this storyline. - HoB vs Daniels, Sydal & Keith was solid. Brawl! - Adora vs Yuka was good. Already setting up a story wtih Deeb. - Claudio vs Butcher was solid. - Enjoyed all the promos on this show. - Penta vs Komander was good.
  12. - Lots of hate for the opening segment online but Copeland has the right attitude. Tribalism sucks. Just enjoy wrestling. - Ospreay vs Hobbs was my MOTN. - Danielson vs Archer was good. - Don't mind this Jericho stuff if it leads to Hook character development but Jericho could use a long hiatus. Taylor is an underrated promo. - Jay vs Billy was too one-sided and too long. - Willow over with the crowd. Heel move from Mone interrupting her. - Young Bucks vs Best Friends was good. Sue rocking the tracksuit. Trent 😮 - Mariah vs Rosa was good. - Contract signing was fun but the Diddy reference was unnecessary.
  13. Solid action on Collision. Cardona in the Riccabone Zone! Toni promo was entertaining as always.
  14. Swerve/Takeshita had a good bounce from the previous quarter so TK made the right call on the main event.
  15. - Ospreay vs Shibata was great. - Loved the Danielson, Takeshita, Swerve & Copeland videos. - EVPs vs Private Party was good. - Tony Hawk is All Elite! Jericho as a mentor to Hook works for me. - Willow vs Jay vs Statlander vs Blue was very good. - Mankiewicz & Timeless Toni corporate synergy. - Best Friends vs The Kingdom was solid. - Swerve vs Takeshita was my MOTN. Joe not impressed. My favorite show of the year so far. Crowd was hot.
  16. Supeprcard of Honor just got an injection of Stardom. I believe the PPV is free for subs.
  17. Funny how the people complaining about Riho vs Willow aren't complaining about Ospreay vs Shibata. Nothing wrong with babyface vs babyface if the wrestling is good.
  18. - Still presenting Mercedes like a big deal. Nice to open the show with a women's segment and follow up with another in the 1st hour. - Okada vs Kingston (c) was good but needed a bit longer to make the finish more exciting. Bastard! - HOOK vs Jericho was a good extended squash. I want Hook/Takeshita in a german suplex battle. - Wardlow in the doghouse. Ospreay's promo segments are pure hype. Big match for next week. - Toni & Mariah vs Deonna & Rosa was solid but unsurprisingly too short. - Swerve vs Butcher was a solid squash. Another big match set. - Copeland vs Christian (c) I Quit was my Dynamite MOTN. Street Fight was my Rampage MOTN.
  19. It's called storyline and character development. They are even teasing her and Willow both turning heel. Stat had a good title run last year... now it's time for her to do some work lower down the card.
  20. At least Mercedes was a draw, despite the doom & gloom over not advertising her debut more overtly.
  21. - Danielson vs Shibata was my MOTN. - Julia (c) vs Adora was solid. - Garcia vs Moriarty was solid but too short. - PAC vs Solo was a solid squash. - Great Danielson promo. - Claudio vs Archer was good. Shibata coming out to help was cool. - Kyle vs Keith was good. - HoB vs Infantry was a solid extended squash. Shock finish was nice but not the best pick for main event. - Spike!
  22. I liked the synergy of the 3 Infantry vs 3 HoB members on the one show. Wasn't it advertised as an open challenge? As for the rankings... I have no idea what happened to them.
