While discussing dark orders record Vinny yelled "I CAN'T SEE THEM" about AEW dark matches that air every week, free... idiot.

He does have a weird "if it isn't shown on Dynamite it didn't happen" mindset. It's weird when it's established now that Dark is where people go to have matches and build a record until there's room for them to do something on Dynamite.

It's something people gripe on for AEW a lot, like "Oh, I didn't see this piece of Dark or I didn't see that skit from BTE so it means nothing to me" as if watching an extra hour of good wrestling product a week compares to the 6-10 hours of WWE programming they pump out a week

If a team becomes the number one contender for the titles, it is not an unreasonable ask to have them win a single match on the most important of the products.

I don't always watch Dark or BTE and like i think Dynamite should largely be able to stand on its own, but its definitely weird how people act like something on Youtube is somehow a hurdle to access when WWE has the Network, to watch NJPW or whatever you probably have to go to another app, or its people doing a podcast you'd have to go find in its own app too.

I know exactly what he's trying to say, I was thinking the same thing at work today. DDT has a handful of them right now too, they're amazing wrestlers but they're not outlandish characters like Okada or Tanahashi, they don't stand out physically like Ishii, they don't do high spots like Ibushi or Hiromu. They're absolutely perfect at pro wrestling but there's nothing in particular that makes them stand out.

Mike is actually good on the Big Audio Nightmare.

Agreed. It's frustrating on WOL, and I think partly because Bryan will use the excuse of him talking to do something else/prep so it's just Mike talking into a void. Recently they did a show where Jim Valley was on as well, and when Mike went into his usual "let me just address counter-claims to my claim before I finish making my original claim" thing, Jim was actually listening and interrupted to raise those points instead, and suddenly Mike is having a conversation instead of just rambling.

What I'm saying is that Jim Valley is the best addition (along with Fumi) that WO/F4W has made in a long time.

Yeah, Jim Valley is amazing, even if I keep being disappointed that he doesn't look like Vince Gillican even though he sounds exactly like him.

It's more "he isn't a physical marvel, and he doesn't have the heart stopping high spots of an Omega or an Ospreay, but he's got the best fundamentals on the planet and is the most consistently great performer with a style that can survive a high workload".

It’s an extremely valid criticism of AEW, imo. You really should be able to follow along the main TV show without the supplementary shows. A graphic, brief recap or even a reminder by commentary would suffice.

I'm not sure what the thing we're talking about is. That Dark Order are ranked #1? The rankings aren't on Dynamite either, are they? And AEW hasn't announced a title shot, have they? I'd agree that if Dark Order got a title shot with no build on Dynamite that would be odd.

Otherwise Dark Order are regularly mentioend on Dynamite so the idea that they're a presence in the tag division isn't unestablished. Being #1 Contenders would be sudden but we all know by now the AEW rankings don't work like that.

Yes, no. They password protect individual episodes and as such their feeds don't work with Pocket Casts. If you're on Android, Beyond Pod works. If you're on iOS, Overcast works.

I just double checked my tape to be sure, they were merely the #1 ranked team below Hangman and Kenny thanks to their wins on Dark, not the #1 contenders. I think Vinny is getting the two mixed up.

That was my interpretation of the conversation. I don't know what was said but it sounds like they talked about the rankings and then got upset that the Dark Order were "#1 Contenders" because they weren't winning matches on Dynamite. But that seems very dumb to me considering the rankings aren't a featured part of Dynamite either so its like going on Twitter to be upset that you're asked to go on Youtube. When you were only kinda asked.

IF AEW says "Dark Order are ranked #1 and get a title shot", then yeah. Weird. But given the way they've booked so far I assume that at the very least there would be a #1 Contender's match or something where the Dark Order got a win to establish them as the #1 Contenders. I feel like pretty much every title shot has come from a victory over either champ or another top contender in a stated #1 Contender's match. The only exception I can think of is Statlander/Nyla, which i think was a poorly booked affair.

Those 2 things are usually one and the same, but they hadn't been announced as getting a title shot yet. They probably will be next in line for Omega Cowboy though.

:allears: :allears: :allears:
I'd like to think if you've got an ongoing story line with another team or person (Like Dark Order / SCU or Best Friends/Lucha Bros) and one of those teams is ranked #1, they should continue their fued regardless of ranking, and get a title shot after or something like that.

Because someones gonna wrack up like 4 wins with the Inner Circle at some point which means solid record, prolly #1 contender, but they'd rather fight jericho without the title than for the title vs Mox, and just do Mox after

All of their shows are categorized separately and have to be individually subscribed to on pocket costs, after trying all sorts of apps it's just easier to stream it through browser.

The thing is, they release a new set of rankings every week so while the #1 ranked wrestler is often the #1 Contender that's not an immediate thing. Right now Jericho, Shida, and the Dark Order at the #1s. Two weeks ago Riho was the #1 ranked wrestler but she hasn't gotten a rematch and was passed over by Statlander. Santana and Ortiz were ranked #1 for like a month but I don't believe they ever got a title shot. Its just not as 1:1 as that.

I've never gotten any of their individual show feeds to work in Pocket Casts, via adding my username/password to the feed URL. It'll populate the feed, but listening/downloading won't work. Did you get past that?
It's super easy in Beyondpod and Overcast, you just enter your credentials while subscribing and it works, much easier than listening in a browser, imo.
