Doctor Gonzo here. Today is one of the most important nights in the history of our sport. For the first time in 18 years wrestling returns to TNT with All Elite Wrestling or AEW. If you are new and dont know what im talking about im going to help you.

WHATS AEW?


All Elite Wrestling, LLC (AEW)is an American professional wrestling promotion founded in 2019. Its inception was announced by entrepreneurs Shahid Khan and his son Tony, with the former acting as the promotion's lead investor, and the latter being the founder, president and CEO of the company. Professional wrestlers Cody Rhodes as well as Matt Jackson and Nick Jackson, collectively known as The Elite, are the promotion's inaugural contracted talents. The three are serving as both in-ring performers and executive vice presidents alongside Kenny Omega, fellow professional wrestler and co-founder of The Elite.

Beginning on October 2, 2019, AEW will have a two-hour weekly TV show, All Elite Wrestling: Dynamite, airing live on TNT in the United States.

AEW DYNAMITE


All Elite Wrestling: Dynamite,also known as AEW: Dynamite, Wednesday Night Dynamite, or simply Dynamite, is an upcoming professional wrestling television program that will be produced by the American promotion All Elite Wrestling (AEW) and will air on TNT in the United States. The show is set to debut on October 2, 2019 and will serve as the flagship program of AEW. The show will air live weekly, for two hours.

HOW TO WATCH



TODAY IS THE BIG NIGHT AT 8E/9 whatever its called the other time zone

EVENT CARD

As first reported by CBSSports.com the card for this historic night is the following:




Kenny Omega & The Young Bucks vs. Chris Jericho & Santana & Ortiz:
This is a match with a lot of star power. Omega and Jericho have history, first meeting in a no disqualification grudge match at New Japan Pro-Wrestling's Wrestle Kingdom 12 for Omega's United States championship. Omega got the win in that bout but came up short when they rematched at AEW's first pay-per-view, Double or Nothing, back in May. That win slotted Jericho into the first ever match for the AEW world championship, which Jericho won by defeating Adam "Hangman" Page in the main event of All Out. Santana & Ortiz made a surprise debut at All Out, attacking The Young Bucks and the Lucha Bros, so it's no surprise they are getting the call to fill in as Jericho's partners at the event. It's a near sure thing the match will deliver high-quality in-ring action.



AEW Women's Championship -- Nyla Rose vs. Riho: Rose and Riho both earned their way to the first ever women's championship match at the All Out pay-per-view event. Rose got here by winning the 21-woman Casino Battle Royale, last eliminating Britt Baker. Riho defeated Hikaru Shida in a singles match. Focusing on Rose's status as the first openly transgender wrestler to sign with a major promotion doesn't do her skills justice, nor does focusing on Riho's 5-foot-1 stature serve to tell the story of her ability to bring it in a big way.




Adam "Hangman" Page vs. PAC: Page came up short in his bid for the championship against Jericho but proved he can hang with top-level names. That's no surprise to anyone who has followed his impressive career, but this may actually register as the most important outing of his journey. PAC beat Omega at All Out while filling in for a legitimately injured Moxley, and given AEW's emphasis on how "wins and losses matter," a win over Omega and the man who almost became the first AEW champ would seem to position him for a title shot sooner than later.


Cody- along with The Young Bucks, Kenny Omega and Jon Moxley -- is the face of AEW. The man who left WWE and set out to do things on his own terms before leading a landscape-shifting movement. If that seems hyperbolic, it is not. Rhodes leaving WWE did not seem like a particularly needle-moving moment, but he posted "the list" on Twitter, laying out things he wanted to do on the independent scene and checked off the boxes one-by-one. Eventually, he, along with Matt and Nick Jackson, became the driving force behind the massive All In pay-per-view success which snowballed into AEW. Guevara is a special talent. At 26, he's already been a force on the independents for years. He's strong, fast and agile with TV good looks and a solid grasp on ring psychology. He's also, most likely, a victim to Rhodes in this match. This has been confirmed as the first match to take place in the history of Dynamite.



MJF vs. Brandon Cutler: MJF has become part of Cody's "family" and supported him in the corner during Rhodes' match with Shawn Spears at All Out. He's an incredible heel who is able to carry the staple gimmick of a cocky, spoiled punk better than almost anyone in wrestling today. Cutler is a veteran and a feel-good story who was emotionally offered two contracts with AEW (one in-ring, one behind the scenes) on an episode of the "Being the Elite" YouTube series.

You might be able to let them use your login (or possibly set up their own account) for your cable provider to let them stream online through TNT.

Would you be my new best friends?

I've posted a new rule in the Rules thread which probably should have been able to go without saying, but since there's about to be a new wrestling war I guess it bears repeating that you're free to talk poo poo about wrestling promotions all you want but if you start getting personal or attacking other posters for watching the "wrong" show you'll get a long probation for it.

Is it only for AEW/WWE or can I get in trouble for telling those PWG bastards they deserve to burn in hell
