We will never be rid of these stars. But I hope they live forever.
I felt sad for Archer. It was a great hoss match, but yeah I honestly don't know where the Murderhawk goes from here.

My wife isn't a wrestling fan but she covertly loves OC. When Kenny pinned him with a tilt I looked at her and said "Feels bad, right?" And she went off lol. Great match tho, it was match of the night for me.

So now they do the individual matches - and we get FTR vs. P&P :woop: - leading into the rubber match at All Out, right?

i feel like Sting could start putting together a Team Sting with Lance and one other hand picked wrestler, it'd be cool as a kind of super group with competing egos that Sting has to manage, and another trios squad

With QT and ogogo beaten and Nick up on dynamite, the factory has to get some wins because if Nick loses, what credibility do they have?

Im sure the Shida moment after the match will be on social media soon or maybe it’s just teased as an incentive to go to live shows to see moments like those.

Was announced during Riho’s match is that she’s going to be based in the U.S. moving forward, so expect her to be on AEW and playing a bigger part again. I’m sure it was COVID plus visa delays.

Riho had an announcement that her merch site will be based in the states and she is also setting up a fan club so it’s good to see her set some roots in the states.

Tay will probably get another shot in the next 6 months, just because she and Britt would have good chemistry I think

They can go back to Rosa, Kris like you say, Tay, and work on building Leyla, Swole, even Kilynn. It might be time to consider a turn for Nyla too. Lots of options there.

e: you could even have her do a short program with Deonna, who's the Impact champ.

Tay Conti, a returning Penelope Ford, or Red Velvet are believable defenses that Britt should win, Serena Deeb, Statlander, Riho and Nyla Rose are in the next tier up, a Shida rematch after some cooling off could happen, there’s an unfinished Big Swole rivalry they could restart easily, and Chekhov’s Thunder Rosa Match is hanging on the wall and is the real easy title change in early 2022 just like Kenny losing to Hangman Page is almost guaranteed at a PPV this year.

I cannot believe how much they've done to elevate Sammy. He's going to be such a versatile member of their roster. His move set is exciting and tailor made to being a face, but he can turn on the cocky arrogant heel attitude with the flick of a switch.

I’ve said this before, but he really is a modern day Sean Waltman.

Wonder if the Team Taz situation and Lance's loss will lead to them joining STING as previously teased. Lance, Cage and Darby sound like one hell of a trio.

Britt and Nyla were in a four-way (with Awesome Kong and Kylie Rae) at Double or Nothing 2019.
They were the last two people in the Casino Battle Royale at All Out 2019.
They were in another four-way (with Riho and Shida) at the New Year's Day 2020 Dynamite.
They had a singles match in the semi-finals of the women's tournament back in February.

Rewatched the three way again. I love it, possibly my favourite three way dance ever. I think what made it really work was that everyone was on screen almost the entire time. There was no "Oh I guess he was asleep at the side." Either they were on camera doing something, on camera in pain, or they rolled out to do another run in back in the same minute or so. No downtime, just constant reversal of fortunes, and multiple imaginative three people spots.

Also I appreciate Pac breaking up pins the way I break up pins in video games; nothing less than a 450 splash was going to do it!

Yeah I think Archer was the wrong guy to feed to Miro at this time. I think it hurt his character. He's lost every feud hes been in and can't win the big one.

I agree with you but at the same time you want Miro to be able to beat a guy who's a huge threat so it makes sense and he did so decisively. Was it too early? I think maybe? Who's next for Miro to beat now? The only other person person in the top 5 is Cage but he just lost, so he's probably out of the top 5. I think Hangman works towards that title match with Kenny at All Out (otherwise why have him beat Cage?). I guess you could do Darby again but it seems like he's going into a singles feud with Ethan Page which'll rule.

As an aside to when I'm thinking about the wrestlers I'm reminded about how my wife (I think only half joking) said "I hate that they have two people with the name Cage and two people with the name Page.

I think Jade is a way down the line one. She's going to win that belt and you don't want to give that one up too early. That may be an All Out Match too. I'm more curious what's next for the Bucks. I kind of talked myself into thinking they would lose because they've run through a good portion of that division. Maybe P&P? I don't think they'll run another FTR program.

I can see Rosa being the heir apparent in 2022. We'll see how it goes.

Other assorted thoughts on DoN:

Cody's entrance gear makes him look like a Homelander stunt double from that Boys TV show.

Jon Moxley is an amazing badass too tough for his own good.

Did not see Jungle Boy winning, but him vs Omega should be fun. I guess Christian can help Brian Cage when he defects from team Taz or something. Form a tag team called the Cages, I dunno.

Darby is a great face in peril and I popped for Sting's big spots.

Seeing Kenny murder Pac with all his belts was great.

Shout out to TFF for using Urban Meyer's reaction for years to come.

I think ditching Jake is the only place for Archer to go. He needs to do a "I've been held back too long, now I get to unleash the real me" thing. Otherwise, he has a "murder everyone" gimmick that doesn't work because he consistently and resoundingly loses every important match he has.

I didn't follow the thread live but this morning I enjoyed reading everyone's thought's on what they liked and didn't like.

Only thing I thought was a bit of a miss was the Cody match and even that was just ok at worst. Favourite match was the three way followed by the tag title match.

I was happy that max caster got a fun pop, but the crickets for anthony bowens made me a bit sad.


also my guess is britt vs statlander is up next but I'm cool with any pairing. the result of fewer womens division segments on tv means I'm itching to see britt fight a bunch of people.

britt vs abadon is gonna be somethin.
