so, what was with that weird zooming going on with Mercede's promo? Like, it would zoom on her face, she'd say a line, it would zoom tighter, she'd say a line, etc, until it just zoomed all the way back out to show they were doing the promo in a hotel lobby with mood lighting.

It was weird.

The thing about Pac, and this is a certified Hot Take, but he is very good at wrestling and I like watching him wrestle and he's one of my favorite wrestlers.

I think it was something new they were trying out because they did it during Jericho's backstage segment too. I didn't like it, hope they cut it out.

Okada vs. PAC is one of those really unbelievable matches AEW likes to toss out every so often, just a match that until the bell rings I won't believe is happening but I couldn't be more excited for. PAC is such a compelling wrestler - he found what works for him (being as From Newcastle as possible) and is living it up. It's gonna be fantastic.

Ryback was always good

I wouldn't say that, but he's pretty good at being 'the worst guy you know made a great point'.

So Dynasty has:
PAC vs Okada
Danielson vs Ospreay
Young Bucks v FTR 4
And Swerve probably winning the world title.

Half of that would be worth ordering a PPV over.

remember that Danielson/Suzuki match that they livestreamed on youtube before a random Rampage? That loving ruled. I remember watching it with my dad.

They’ve been doing this a few weeks now. I don’t mind it so much for standing around promos bouncing from person to person.

I don’t follow NJPW enough to know if it’s possible but part of me is intrigued enough by the possibility of Mox beating Naito on Friday to buy that show.

But then I remember that the US NJPW live shows are almost always a complete poo poo show quality-wise.

The biggest American Naito fans have all decided Mox is winning.

Not every tv camera director could have become Kevin Dunn, but a particle of Kevin Dunn is lodged in every tv camera director

I should save this for the Hell Thread but AEW needs to get rid of the cheap Death Star back drop they’ve been using the last little while. I don’t have any better ideas though. I guess they can keep using it.

I think they should just use backstage areas more often than not. It helps ground the show in reality when wrestlers are cutting interviews on their way to the car or are all meeting up around what is clearly an "interview area" like the fun Cope And The Gang segment last night or are watching the feed from production or their locker room. This kind of backstage area feels too divorced from the happenings in the ring.

On the other hand, the WCW-style interviews on the stage with Renee have been kickass.
