Kenny and Don Callis backstage at Dynamite:

“Impact Wrestling’s Don Callis is going to help me go to Impact Wrestling and win their belts too!”

Same poo poo. I guess maybe this one hit different if you gave a gently caress about Impact or their championships?

If Kenny's gonna go for the Impact title then it makes about one million times more sense to announce that on a show that the people who care about that title actually watch.

Plus the whole Kenny betraying AEW itself thing that was already mentioned.

turn it all around

Impact is still a very boring show. Watched the first 40 minutes then left until the Kenny thing.

Two Tonys was great but I hope we never see this level of TK on screen in AEW proper.

Also, kind of funny that Kenny's thing was basically "drink more Ovaltine" and a big commercial to watch another big announcement tomorrow.

Kenny and Don should spend the next six months touring local garbage indies and winning their titles due to fuckery

I am seeing the x division challenger is TBD for their PPV this Saturday, which is unfortunately named Final Resolution and its apparently not the first time they’ve used that name.

It's a good name... when the PPV was in January after people have made all of their resolutions.

It makes no sense in December.

I understand what they’re going for, but one prefix off from “final solution” is some Icarus level asking for trouble.

Final resolution is a common term so I don't really think it has ever been trouble for them.

The Marko Stunt stuff was really weird on Sammy's Vlog, but his bit on BTE with Jericho randomly walking by and declaring,"You should write a book!" was great.

That would actually rule. Between the TNA Title and the Mega Championship, Kenny would start calling himself the Triple Crown Champion despite two of his three titles being poo poo that no one cares about

Seeing Marko Stunt perform a 4 minute original song then seeing Tony Khan and eventually Kenny Omega on IMPACT Wrestling as AEW World Champion is probably one of the more interesting nights of pro wrestling I've watched. Pretty neat

Next time you do a song on your show, how about one that doesn’t repeat so much or has anything to do with wrestling? Could be cool

I wasn't expecting much from Impact but I'd say it exceeded my expectations. I thought it was fine. The matches themselves were pretty decent but just too much filler otherwise. Much more tolerable than WWE anyway, I didn't have a ball of agitation in the pit of my stomach or wasn't super annoyed watching so that's something.

The Tonys commercial and Callis/Kenny promo were both quite good and I'm interested to see where this whole thing goes. I just don't know if I really want to watch Impact every week (if aew is involved every week anyway), but we'll see.

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.

And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

Dark was so much more entertaining and it is mostly squash matches. Taz and Excalibur are really good

I thought majority of the backstage stuff, while poorly delivered, were fine in the content. Agreed on Sami Calihan being trash. I also didn't mind the announcing but definitely wouldn't describe it as all that great but not so bad that I couldn't take it. It had moments where it was fine and moments where it was not good.

I'll be watching Dark tomorrow morning. Looking forward to it, as always. I have no doubts it was much more entertaining. :)
