I was so scared for Christian that they were going to put him over JB by the end of that Battle Royale, he would’ve gotten “Hogan is the Third Man” level trash thrown at him.

I like what they're doing with Christian. He's a crafty vet, so there's no shame losing to him, but he's also talented and wily enough to pull out wins. It seems like they've struck a good balance. I was not expecting such a pop for the Christian/Matt face off and given the camera work, I don't think AEW was either.

I almost didn’t buy this but dammnnn I’m glad I did, my entire house was popping all night long. I hate nationalistic poo poo and am firmly  but Cody’s costume was hilarious and absolutely ruled.I totally forgot the pops jungle boy got! Also shout out to my boy evil uno. Stop talking about Brian pillmans jrs dead dad. That poo poo would drive me nuts were I in his position. I like the varsity blondes quite a bit. Lots of people over like hell and I’m sure it was a great feeling for all of them to be in front of a crowd again. Tully and FTR in the “disco” was hilarious. Everything was excellent though. Sammy G is the man. Everyone in my house was laughing and smiling all night! Great way to end the show.

Rick Knox just standing there like a spare rear end in a top hat for what felt like forever while the Bucks double teamed Moxley and Kingston stood on the apron was kind of dumb. Where was the count? Where was any attempt to remove the non-legal Buck? It’s not like it was even a “match has descended into chaos” moment because Kingston was right there ready and waiting.

Where was the count? Where was any attempt to remove the non-legal Buck? Knox has allowed the Bucks to maul people like that in multiple matches and commentary has called it out. I think it's building to something, probably when they drop the titles part of it will be that Knox isn't the ref.

That PPV was loving excellent. I loved everything on it, I think it's genuinely the show I've enjoyed the most since ECW One Night Stand in 2005. Deeb/Riho was a good match to start the night off. Page/Cage was loving awesome. I'm in awe of the stuff Cage is capable of and when he eventually goes on a face run and lays waste to all the other hosses it's going to be some special stuff. I was extremely entertained by the tag title match. This would have been match of the night for me on just about any other show. Hearing Eddie Kingston get huge chants was heart warming as hell. The battle royal was fun enough, especially the end. I really want to see a full Jungle Boy/Christian match because it seems like they could blow the doors off. The only big problem is the director still has no loving idea what they're doing when it comes to battle royals, they miss so many drat spots and eliminations just needlessly buzzing around to different cuts. I loved Cody and Ogogo. Cody going over was the obvious and correct choice, but they left a lot out there to show that Ogogo will be a star with some more seasoning. For being his first 'real' match I was really impressed with him. Cody is the drat best. Thinking of the Nightmare Family vs. Factory feud in general, I could see Comorato bringing back a big win over Dustin. They're on a collision course after the battle royal. Miro/Archer was cool. Hoss offs are the best. Britt winning was excellent. She has 'it' way more than any other woman on the roster. I'm just surprised this didn't happen sooner, but waiting until the crowds were back was the right move. Really excited to see where this goes and who her first feud will be. I was shocked by how drat good Sting looked in the ring. The man is a legend and a legit special attraction and putting Darby with him was gold. Scorpio Sky still doesn't do much for me but I'm really growing on Ethan Page. He can cut a drat good promo and has one of the best finishers in the business. Eager to see more with him. The three way for the title was one of the best I've ever seen for a world title. Each guy came out of that looking phenomenal. Stadium Stampede was epic. These are the most fun matches there are. Everyone had great moments to shine. Can't say enough good things about it. May Inner Circle reign forever

It was a really fun touch that Cage didn't particularly seem in much trouble at all, before his team interfered for Reasons and screwed him over

Tag matches are much better when people stop giving a poo poo about it and part of the reasons the Bucks are good is because they took that lesson from their Dragon Gate tours to heart.

where do you take cody v the factory from here, honestly. he's beaten qt, easily, he beat the star pupil next big thing while dressed as homelander, so what if Dustin takes on comatoro its basically too late to do that match unless Aaron solow is gonna somehow take down cody.

The thing with the "when you beat Cody it makes you" thing is thus far in the entire history of AEW Cody has lost exactly four singles matches, and they were Jericho, MJF, Brodie and Darby, one of whom really did not need a victory over Cody to legitimize them and one of whom through no fault of anyone's wound up being tragically wasted, but at the end of the day it means he's functionally made two people, and in that same timeframe he's gone over Ogogo, QT, Penta, Scorpio, Jungle Boy, Lance Archer, Spears and Orange Cassidy. He had to stop Darby several times before Darby got his and he went over Orange Cassidy right after Cassidy's big hot streak where they put him over Jericho. It's not as simple as "Cody sucks and should lose all the time," but it's also not at all unreasonable for a lot of people to be frustrated with Cody's booking.

It’s not quibbling about who the legal man is, it’s just stupid as gently caress to have one team member stand there like a goober while the other gets double teamed with no end in sight. Either count and remove the illegal man or have the other guy get in the ring too and go full clusterfuck. It made Eddie look stupid too.
