Eat My Fuc posted:That ending was horrendously awkward. One of the bucks is on mic reminding Kenny not to mention shooting a gun and it's like why even go there, just let Cody do his speech and go, there was no tact there to what they did. I think they genuinely thought they were off air

Mel Mudkiper posted:wait maybe its because I was watching with friends but are we pretending Hangman isn't awesome now He looks the part and in the past he's had matches with really good wrestlers and looked good with them. Against Kip Sabian the match struggled to get anything above average and it felt to me at least like Page was lacking some kind of spark you'd expect from him. It was probably the weakest single match on the show (Brandi/Allie wasn't great but it successfully used smoke and mirrors for the most part). All that would be fine for an up and coming guy with plenty of time to work with, but they're pushing Page as a top of the card singles guy who could potentially be their first ever World Champion.

Marvez absolutely needs to go - he's a detriment to the show every time

I'm not into Page/Jericho at all, but whatever. Let them have the match and then Moxley or Omega or Daniels or Pentagon or those 6 guys in the match that I got sold on or whoever can light a fire in the singles division.

And I liked the weird "are we off the air or not" poo poo after the show - it's genuine moments like that you'll never get from super scripted WWE productions We are watching a bunch of high level performers who just started their own company learn the production side as they go and it's really interesting to see

I'm so use to the god awful WWE commentary that I don't really notice any one dude in particular being a bit crap in the AEW booth. All the retro vidya memes dunking on the guy are cracking me up though so I'm not going to tell everyone else to lay off or anything.

AEW is so good in just about every other way that we're gonna latch onto the one thing that is genuinely terrible. Also: Every single Joshi wrestler they've brought in has been a massive home run for them.

Kenny Omega has closed out all three AEW shows (counting All In) with his shtick and it's likely a tradition they'd like to see keep going for as long as they can and this was a compromise to keep it going despite the environment.

Like 5 minutes of holds and chain wrestling in the young bucks match and he goes "wow jr do you think the pace has slowed?" any 6 year old kid watching could figure that out.

My dark secret is I've never actually liked Jim Ross on commentary so I barely even noticed the other guy sucking.

I wonder why they cut off the end of the Rhodes/Jacksons for the check stuff when they had plenty of time left. There was no way that was going to last 13 minutes. They should have let that ended, let Kenny or whoever know in Gorilla that they got X amount of minutes to get the check presented and end the broadcast. Seemed weird. All in all though it was a good show. There really wasn’t a stinker. I though Alex was better on the commentary tonight. He at least didn’t stick out like a sore thumb like he did previously.

I think he is good and should beat Jericho and then feud with MJF

Excalibur and Chuck Taylor should have called this one imo.

That's why they invited the dinosaur with a masters degree to help.
