More wrestlers should have the reaction at winning a match that Leva has

Eh it looked like Ivalisse was no-selling that whole match. Something was definitely off, it kept all breaking down whenever she was in the ring lol.

Of all the names you could pick, Jennacide is certainly one of them. Cool wrestler though. Dreamgirl Ellie was good too. I also enjoy Leva's capering, for lack of a better term.

Darkthoughts Ricky Starks on commentary. His shirt is AWOL. 1) TNT vs Chaos Project. Getting some strong GoD vibes from TNT. I think Luther is finally loosening up and getting into his tag team role. He's sincerely limited, but if he's just used for weird poo poo he's actually okay. The bit where Serpentico was refusing to go to the top rope was fun. I'm still waiting for more from TNT. The crawl to the corner was not good. There's more to see here and I look forward to it. 2) The Acclaimed vs Louie Valle and Justin Blax. Create-a-wrestler-rear end gear going on here. Bowens and Caster look great. Having the beat come out of their theme works great. Confident and fun tag work from The Acclaimed. Starting these guys off as heels works well for getting them over quickly, but there is some powerful face energy waiting to come out here. 3) Top Flight vs Baron Black and Frankie Thomas. Baron Black has a king hat. Frankie Thomas is hang dog as hell. Top Flight come out looking like signed guys. Top Flight are smooth as hell and get huge air. I wonder if this is a test of their ability to run a match. If so, this looked a bit scruffy all over but not too bad. The standing Spanish fly was insane. The setup for the corner dropkick was indieriffic but this was fun. Continental Peter Avalon having a private dinner in obviously an elevator was fun. 4) The Captain Shawn Dean and Adam Priest versus TH2. New gear for Shawn Dean, looks like. Dean is such a good hand, everyone looks good against him because he knows how to enhance. That lungblower move Dean has is a killer. Fun match, with TH2 looking effective and Dean showing some skills. Adam Priest was theoretically also in this match. 5) Ashton Starr and David Ali vs LUCHA BROS, MEXI KINGS, ZERO MIEDO, MEET YOU IN THE RING. Starr's look is wild. This is an absolute poo poo kicking, which is fun. 6) Dani Jordyn vs Leva Bates. Give Jordyn 30 seconds in on video before the match to walk us through each entry in the burn book. Like Leva's new music. Fun character work, would be even more fun if we could see the book. The match will trouble no five star lists, but it's fun. Leva gets a singles win, which is nice. 7) Fuego Del Sol vs Alan 5 Angels. Fuego has become a favourite of mine largely through Sammy's vlog. Whoo! Fast start! Angels is such a solid junior heavyweight fightyguy. The Tornado DDT gag is great. Fuego now has the best losing streak in wrestling. 8) Dreamgirl Ellie and Jennacide vs Las Sicarias. Absolutely love the look of Ellie and Jenna. 80s Joshi as hell. Jenna has some real power. We need another AEW women's division hoss. This is a fun match. Ellie and Jenna clearly have skills and I'd like to see them back. A David / Goliath match with Jenna and Red Velvet could be fun. 9) Bad Romance vs Jurassic Express. Marko Stunt in Slap Shot glasses. Turns out that he's not illiterate. This match is as wild and fun as you might expect. Oof, that stuff on the floor was incredibly awkward. Overall a good match but I was hoping for great. Not a bad show, and some solid enhancement wins. Sign Jenna and Ellie.

That ducked spin kick into a pump kick sequence from Luther genuinely got a "wow" out of me. I didn't realize he was that spry.

The trick is to do that really early in a match while he still has some gas in the tank. Fun match, though. Pointm'n and Snakem'n are figuring their team identity out and doing some cool, unique stuff. edit: it also helps that it's November, so it's not 90 degrees out and humid as gently caress during tapings.

I'm extremely behind in dark but I just saw Caster rapping with the backing music and man that ruled.

Dude's suplexes have a lot of snap. Jordan7hm posted:Yeah I think this is making a big difference. It's noticeably improved the roster's ringwork across the board, I've noticed.

Leva Bates has a more credible cross-face than Miro and that's delightful.

Really awesome to see.

I wonder if Fuego is genuinely getting over enough that they're starting to sweat that they're actually going to have to sign him (and deal with all the cripplings that will come from his prolific use of the tornado DDT)?

If he gets over I think they would probably be happy to sign him?

Anthony Bowens has a kickass theme. Feels like it would fit at the end of a Marvel movie https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=niBlW232ouA

Further catching up on Dark. Watching John Silver come into his own in the ring, and in his character work has been an absolute joy.

Get your “who’s secretly signed” speculation revving based on who is and isn’t on this official group poster for this week’s card: https://twitter.com/aew/status/1328699919826378758?s=21 Mainly surprised that Tesha Price made the graphic, but Alex Gracia didn’t. Also interesting how large KiLynn King is, acknowledging I don’t know if the person making this graphic does it with any idea of what’s going down on the show.

Figures that it was actually taped for Dark, knew it wasn't realistic that TH2 would actually be granted a chance to talk on Dynamite.

The Waiting Room is a really good name for a dentist themed talk show. She should make her guests fill out all their answers on forms.

It should also air 45 minutes after the scheduled time with no explanation.
