If TK isn't at least vaguely aware of what's happening with WWE and NJPW, he's being negligent. He should at least make sure someone in the AEW inner circle (not the Inner Circle) is keeping up with ROH, TNA, AAA, CMLL and the CyberFight and joshi promotions too.

MassRafTer posted:Given how successful New Japan has been in the COVID era Gedo should get heavy consideration for Best Booker. Really the only real miss Gedo has had during the COVID era is Okada/Yujiro. I'm not the biggest fan of the EVIL turn and push but taking a shot on a young guy is never a bad idea and they did it in a way to protect EVIL and the company if it doesn't work out so it's actually pretty okay (but not amazing booking). But the Tag Titles have been the best booked they have ever been, the 6 man titles are being used properly to build Korakuen shows and other programs, Suzuki/Nagata, Suzuki/Shingo, Taichi and Yoshi Hashi having good programs and the G1 all have been well booked. Tony Khan is my choice for booker of the year but Gedo should be in the top 3 or 4 conversation still.

Apparently in an interview Tony Khan has called the decision to have the Dangerous Tekkers/Golden Aces match where Tanahashi got like 200 Dragon Screws in a row on the same show as the Evil/Naito match a "head-scratcher", from what I understand because the mixed reaction to the latter match overshadowed the former, more well-received storyline. It makes sense he'd have that reaction, given how Dynamite is usually booked to have a hot angle on last regardless of if it's for the world title, but it's been a controversial comment in this thread.

I think Tony also really tries to avoid having a show with a heel ending. The only one I can think of is All Out 2019.

There's definitely an argument to be made for that in a promotion that wants to push the tag titles as equal to the singles titles, but Khan can't even realistically argue that he does that. For all the talk, AEW definitely subscribes to the idea that the men's singles belt is the main event.

Hard to main event a PPV with the tag titles when one of the participants isn't a top-five team in the company Save that for Young Bucks (C) v. Best Friends when Trent and Chuck finally get the straps

Honestly even though Moxley winning was a good show closer they should of had the Bucks vs Page/Omega Main event Revolution.

Big Bicep Tony's outlook on wrestling is "End the big PPV with a feel good moment" The most feel-good moment from this show would probably be Hangman beating Kenny in the main event, with Kingston pulling a Lesner and having Kingston/Mox at the beginning of the show. This ain't the card to have Bucks/FTR end the show because they're both basically heels, this isn't the card to end with Shida/Nyla because their women's roster is still shite

I have not watched any wrestling in months, saw that promo and said there's no way he won't win. If any time is the time for Mox to lose, now is.

Dave is out of his mind with the mental gymnastics trying to defend the NJPW Tokyo Dome booking when Bryan presents him with a bunch of better alternatives. It’s borderline unlistenable after a point.

It’s borderline unlistenable after a point. Having Ibushi actually drop the briefcase was dumb when you could have done a disputed finish that would have served the same effect if you wanted to get a title defense on both shows. Bryan was right that having Ibushi lose the briefcase and then get the match anyway is dumb. I don't think Dave was right about selling both nights out. I have to think that both nights would sell together. How many people would go see one show and not the other regardless of the main event? If anything I would think that knowing Ibushi might win the title on the first night and then just have to defend it the second would make that a weaker sell, since the thing you're really selling is the Ibushi title win.

It wasn't clean but they aren't just handing the briefcase back to Ibushi and instead letting White have it so that implies that the referees call stands. I understand that they couldn't really have someone come out and suddenly start enforcing the rules, especially when you've had EVIL all year breaking them but the White keeping the case and challenging the second night hurts Ibushi. forkboy84 posted:Judging by this year?
