You think Wardlow just gets bounced back down to the mid card after tonight? I can’t see where they can go with that angle that’ll make anyone care about him or the kingdom at this point please don’t quote this when he wins

I figure Max costs him the match and it's Max/Wardy for Dynasty.

I SAID WE'RE NOT GONNA BE FUCKING SUCK THIS YEAR!!!

Wardlow is gonna win tonight to get one back on Joe in Kayfabe, then Swerve gets to be a pure face against Heel Wardlow to take it from him at Dynasty and so continues the history of Wardlow being a transitional champ. It also sets up an obvious and easy program with Joe after that (you didn't beat me, i haven't beaten you lets settle it on DYNAMITE)

I mostly say this because TK seems invested in Cole's lovely group so if you're gonna melt them down, gotta let them get to the top first.

Jokes aside I wonder what Shawn Spears did that QT didn't, because it sounds like QT was instantaneously shut down as soon as he started talking about what he wanted to do.

Shawn Spears doesn't want to be an executive in a wrestling company and run his own school, QT does. QT doesn't want to be a jobber in developmental at the expense of being an executive.

Letting Wardlow beat Joe weakens Swerve and Hangman. It’s just that simple. Let’s not go crazy.

Undisputed Kingdom come out and try to help Wardlow win, Swerve comes out and chases them off, Joe wins amidst all the chaos. Wardlow gets semi-protected, Swerve gets face points and advances his story with Joe, seeds are planted for a UK/Swerve feud once Swerve is champ and Cole is healthy. Simple as that

Joe and Swerve squashed the kingdom, Cole is loving dead, and I guess Roderick hasn't been buried yet. I think Joe can handle interference

Yeah like, I don't expect Wardlow to win. I don't even really want it to happen. But c'mon, you could absolutely have Joe drop the belt on a TV match due to cheating and then have a MONSTER statement match to win it back without burying him.

God is dead. God remains dead. And we have killed him. Who will wipe this blood off us? What festivals of atonement, what sacred games shall we need to invent?

warlow is gonna win because he owes joe for cutting off his Dad Hair 16 months ago. i was in the crowd for the infamous shearing of the parental locks and Wardlow's Wardogs have been braying for blood ever since...

payback is coming joe!!

I gotta say my one gripe with the storyline is def trying to paint Swerve as a face after he invaded Hangman's loving home. All of Adam's madness was completely validated! This guy invaded his house and taunted his infant kid! They need to hammer this home and just let Swerve be a tweener, he isn't gonna work as a babyface. Let him stay as a desperate madman, all 3 guys are insane at this point. It works anyway for whenever face Ospreay inevitably challenges the eventual champ Swerve.

Swerve showing remorse for what he did is good, actually. As is Hangman being justified in going crazy but taking things too far by going after innocent bystanders, much like Swerve himself did.

I like this. Hangman/Swerve/Joe have gone mad over their goal to be AEW Champ. All for the best wrestlers in the world Osprey and Okada being right over the hill to just waltz in and probably win because they don't need to be crazy they are just the best. Which will just drive them even crazier!

My guess is that it's going to end with Swerve making amends and Hangman somehow backing Swerve up to help him win the championship, which would be pretty fun.
