Quantum of Phallus posted:that Miro segment was unreal. He's so so good. Loved to see the crowd going wild for him It had the same level of catharsis as Mox's debut, just total validation that the guy who always felt like he should be a star definitely is one

Had a lot of fun at the show last night. I think the crowd was a little tired after sitting through 2 hours of Dark Elevation tapings and then a lot of go home promos, but glad it seems like we were lively on TV. Cody is still massively over with live crowds, but I think Britt Baker and Jungle Boy were some of the biggest notable pops of the night.

Lead Pipe Cinch posted:All of this is moot because Jungle Boy is finally winning a battle royale. Jungle Boy won the battle royale to determine the first challenger to Cody Rhodes' TNT title after DoN last year. This week's episode felt very low stakes compared to the last few weeks of PPV quality cards. When all the matches are foregone conclusions it's important to keep the energy level high and they dropped the ball by going into that painful weigh in segment straight after the opening match. If Sky/Page vs Uno/Stu had organically flowed out of that opening brawl and left Hangman/Janela as the final match the pacing would have been better imo. Lamuella posted:Viewed as a two hour preshow, this was very good. Viewed as an episode of Dynamite, it was desperately uneven. Good call.

Confused Penta is the best. It was a good go home show, but it was obvious the humidity sucked, and I really didn't like the layout of the seating. Not sure if it's just because I was used to one layout for 15 months. Fire the racist idiot. There are mistakes, and then there's whatever the gently caress that was.

Other thoughts. Uno had some good mannerisms as a heel but I think he works better as a face. Uno was on his game tonight but Stu still felt like he carried the team. Not because Uno is bad but because Stu is that good. That having been said; despite being somebody who has been really harsh on this team in the past I find it sad that they were on enhancement talent duty against Eggo (who isn't even bad, he's just like Shawn Spears in that he doesn't have a hook*) and Scorpio Sky (who I think we overrated because he was booked well in the tag tournament and subsequent reign). They're probably going to be stuck in the midcard for the foreseeable future. Being in a stable with two tag teams and not knowing which one is the better of the two won't help. After what happened in WWE I kinda like that a good chunk of the AEW roster treats Sting as a wrestling god. But still, holy poo poo 62 and actually wrestling a goddamn live match. I think Hangmin's wound was one of those 'looks worse than it is' things but it still wasn't pretty. If IC breaks up I fear that Sammy and P&P will get lost in the shuffle. Well more P&P than Sammy. Sammy needs some room to breathe away from Jericho and away from being the IC's designated pin eater. P&P? They're great but so isn't almost every tag team in AEW. That's the problem. I'm still all-in on my dumb idea of having JR manage Hager if they plan on doing anything with him post breakup (I hope they don't. Character issues aside he's not very good. Well he's kinda good at playing the meathead dope). I just went from being 50/50 on who wins the tag match to being 70-30 in favor of Mox/Kingston because they went through all the trouble of getting them their own theme music and their own tag finisher. Or it could all be a red herring. AEW does those. I hope Mox/Kingston are the last ersatz tag team to hold the titles before they finally leave the Bucks' orbit, even if that means a second FTR title reign. *I think Shawn Spears may have finally found his niche as the loose canon of the Pinnacle. I also think Spears is underrated on the mic. I appreciate faces getting savvy to the typical heel ambushes. I wish Shida's promo was a little longer. She deserves it. That having been said she probably should have been pointing to the crowd when she said 'this is for you. And you'. I feel like Jungle Boy is going to need a Britt Baker-esque heel run before he truly finds his character. I never thought much of Miro in WWE. I think much of Miro now. Is Hook almost ready to debut? Has there been any noise on that front? They need to get the hell out of Daily's Place during the summer. People should not wrestle in that humidity. June's gonna be rough before they start touring again. There was a lot to chew on despite this really being a bottom 10% Dynamite. the episode wasn't a failure per se, it was just set up to sell the hell out of DoN while not taxing the wrestlers.

I wonder if how hard I'm trying to like Scorpio Sky is only making me like him less. He's just a white noise wrestler to me from top to bottom. The definition of a 6/10 in every stat.

I'm really tiring of Cody. I don't think I've enjoyed much of his angles/matches since the dog collar match. DoN is going to rock. I'm ready for Miro to ascend and champ Britt.

They need an angle where they put someone on the shelf or do something to make them look like an actual threat. The Darby stair stuff was close but they really didn't get the shine from that.

The Darby stair stuff was close but they really didn't get the shine from that. They could throw Darby in a wood chipper, the shine still wouldn't stick to them. Scorpio is the kind of guy who should put on a lucha mask and focus on doing a few taunts and having great matches. Ethan needs to do more Ric Flair stuff.

Yeah I feel like from what I've seen of Ethan Page he's just on simmer. But if he had been asked to like have a TNT title program with Darby, he'd show me something. Sky's been pushed in AEW on more than one occasion and he's just sorta what you see is what you get. I have yet to see any spark from him. Even his title match with Darby was more fine than anything to me.
