Dynamite results - aired internationally June 2 (airs in USA on June 4) Men of the Year Interview with Ethan Pahe and Scorpio Sky. Sky was wearing garlic for some reason. He also had a water gun (“the drip stick”). They brought out Serena Deeb. Deeb ran down Shida and KiLyn King. This led to Deeb issuing a 2-minute challenge to King. King lasted 2 minutes and celebrated. Shida becomes the number one contender. Christian and Danny Limelight had a conversation backstage. They were excited about the return of live crowds. Christian asked him how to say a few phrases in Spanish. Christian referenced Eddie Guerrero and the “I’m your Papi” line too. Chrisitan asked Priest how to say, “Hey, Brian Cage.” Limelight said, “Hey, Brian Cafe” and Christian was confused. Brian Cage (now sporting a goatee) was standing behind Chrisitan. Limelight was annoyed to see him so he left. Christian was excited to see Cage and even said he missed him. Cage knew they’d have to be able to work together so he invited Christian to join him at ringside. Christian was excited but he talked too much so Cage once again made him “lock” his mouth shut and throw the “key” away. When Cage left, Christian searched around on the ground for the imaginary key. Brian Cage (w/Christian) defeated Chick Taylor (9:00) Lio Rush and five ladies dressed in black welcomed Mark Henry to his personal locker room. He was happy to see them. In the back, Alex Marvez assured Nyla Rose that he didn’t need her help against Leila Hirsch. He wanted her to stay in the back. Alex Marvez defeated Layla Hirsch (4:13) Marvez avoided Hirsch’s offense until she flattened him with a shoulder tackle. Marvez used a schoolboy for two and dodged another tackle before giving Hirsch a scoop slam. Marvez seemed regretful and Rose (watching in the back) was surprised. Hirsch applied a Kirifuda Clutch but fire pyro went off out of the nearby post which caused her to let go of the hold. Marvez rolled her up for the pinfall win. Marvez sprinted to the back where he was greeted by a very excited Rose. They celebrated. Jon Moxley told Josh Matthews that he respected Kingston because he was a man who would do anything for his family and has earned everything he’s achieved. MoXley, like Kingston, knew what it was like to put everyone’s needs ahead of his own. He implied that Kingston winning the world title might’ve happened sooner if he had not done that. Moxley stopped worrying about others to focus on winning the AEW title and it helped him reach the top. He slayed Chris Jericho, something Kingston couldn’t do. Moxley said he liked Kingston but he was willing to do everything that Kingston was not. Moxley planned on rolling right over him. Butcher and Blade defeated Lucha Bros (2:49) Lucha Bros got some offense but Bircher and Blade won relatively quickly with a double chokeslam on Fenix. Abadon was on her swingset in the back and invited Marvez to her Playground to celebrate his big win. Miro entered. He couldn’t wait to get back on the road and defend his title in every major city. He showed a replay of Archer and Dante Martin trying to embarrass him last week. He said they acted like scumbags and that’s why he wouldn’t defend his title against them. He was happy to face them back to back and send them back to catering. Dante Martin defeated TNT Champion Miro in a non-title match (1:14) Archer’s music hit and he ran down to ringside. The distraction allowed Martin to roll up Miro for the pinfall win. Miro was pissed. Lance Arxher (w/Martin) defeated TNT Champion Miro in a non-title match The match was underway after a break and Miro was in control. Miro set up for a Brogue Kick but Martin slid halfway into the ring. Miro went after him and tried pulling him into the ring. As this was happening, Archer used the opportunity to apply a schoolboy for the pinfall win. Miro was pissed again. Archer celebrated like this was a big win. Hangman Page defeated MJF (0:28) Page won quickly by pinfall after thumbing MJf in the eye and hitting a Neuralyzer. In the back, Luke Gallows tried psyching up Karl Anderson about their tag title match. Gallows thought Anderson wasn’t listening and asked him if he’s ever been in battle. Anderson shot him a look and said, “Have you ever been in battle? Because I served in Impact.” Gallows left. They replayed the entire show as a recap Josh Matthews interviewed Eddie Kingston. Kingston said his friends and family were not a detriment to his success, they were the reason for it. He didn’t understand why Moxley would take cheap shots at him. He respected what Moxley accomplished but he didn’t appreciate the cheap shot he took when comparing their matches against Chris Jericho. Kingston admitted he lost quickly to Jericho but he also beat Hager when Moxley never could. He planned on beating Moxley tonight and beating Kenny Onega to once again become AEW champion. The Young Bucks defeated Gallows and Anderson to retain the AEW Tag Team Championships (9:43) Gallows turned on Anderson. Anderson went for a tag but Gallows hopped off the apron. Rose warned Marvez about appearing on Abadon’s Playground. Marvez didn’t think anything could go wrong and told her not to worry. Rose said she’ll get champagne ready so they can celebrate his victory later. A worried Gallows walked through the back when he was approached by Matthews. Gallows claimed that Anderson was unhinged and unpredictable. Gallows knew they were going back on the road, traveling from town to town, and he didn’t want to be around Anderson anymore.

Kunabomber posted:Which is super weird when you think about how 205 live and main event is considered the 8th circle of hell. It probably helps that Dark/Elevation isn't treated like a separate brand and are true sister shows to Dynamite, with 'main roster'(if there is such a thing) talent showing up to do matches. I mean Dark started as a response to fan’s comments that if wins and losses matter, you clearly need to have dark matches available somewhere. Then it became its own thing, it still built built around the touring roster. Then the pandemic made it really its own thing built around getting reps and paydays for indie wrestlers. (Tony Khan has been around pro sports long enough to know he needs a talent farm, so indie wrestling must be strong) I don’t think WWE has an equivalent. Maybe NXT, but clearly not since Elevation is kind of that. I don’t know, I don’t really watch other wrestling.

Wins and losses only matter in AEW because Tony Khan’s actual day job is literally Statistics Nerd. If that wasn’t the case it would probably be just as fast and loose as any other promotion.

I am also 100% fine with the Butcher retweeting any and every tweet suggesting that Tommy End joins up with him and the Blade.

smarxist posted:it's probably more likely Dark Order dissolves before getting another full time leader, but man the reunion run 15 years from now with negative 1.... I don't think Dark Order ever dissolves. There's a reason they're putting them in every possible combination on Dark and Elevation. You don't do that unless you want them to build chemistry as a faction.

Everyone saying dark and elevation are nothing but quick squashes clearly hasn't watched either show at least since the pandemic started. Yes, you can almost always guess the winner in the undercard, but it's not like this is 1990s Undertaker coming out and beating Bastion Booger or Brooklyn Brawler in 30 seconds. It's a lot of really good talent having often very competitive matches with aew guys. I guess I don't understand the attitude of "the only thing that matters is the outcome, not the match quality," mindset. Why even watch Dynamite or the ppvs? You can just look at results to get the finish. It's fine not to watch them, there's only so many hours in a day, but on some level when you make that choice your taking the responsibility of missing the angles and growth on display on those shows. So like, sure don't watch em, but they more than JUST jobber squashes, which are pretty rare. Elevation in particular is more of a B show than a C show, with the interview segments and abundance of angles on it.

Jobber squashes can be good matches but without stakes or story impact there's still not much there of value. Like, if something gets traction in the MOTYC thread I'll go take a look but if nobody even cares to mention it there then it can't have been that good

Gumball Gumption posted:For example I didn't know who Fuego was at first on TV so I googled him and then I learned he's all over Dark and Sammy's vlog so he must be some talentless nepotism hire who's close with Sammy and Cody. If you don't watch BTE/Sammy's Vlog, a lot of the "enhancement talent" are gonna appear that way, because they don't get time on Dynamite or Dark for promo's or to look like anything other than jobbers. Someone needs to make a rough cut weekly BTE/Sammy's digest for character work stuff on there, because a lot of it does end up getting used.

I’m just plainly happy seeing midcarders get their reps in against enhancement talent on dark and elevation and maybe I’ll get to see a seed of something that’ll make them a big deal one day so I can say I was there from base camp. Also helps that being youtube shows, it’s easy to cherry-pick matches and segments

'enhancement' matches on Dark can still be good matches, but let's be real; they are not going to forward storylines other than "person win match good". And that's fine. They are more or less indie matches that just sorta happen. And that's fine. It's also funny that this seems to be a unique thing to wrestling, where people will say, "oh you didn't watch that show that most people do not watch? YOUR LOSS." There weren't story beats on X-Files that made no sense and then the defense was "oh you didn't watch Freaky Links? YOUR LOSS." AEW needs to do what comics books do and put little editor notes in the corner saying something like, "Confused? Watch Dark from 3-12-21 for the full story!"

Dude he's in a nepotism spot and you're not going to convince me otherwise about Fuego. He's both Dustin's son and Sammy under a mask trying to get two contacts. Google told me this and it's got to be true.

I’m just curious what the long term plans are for DO without a spotlight singles star. Hangman and Tay aren’t official members, so the makeup of the faction right now is kinda odd for a stable 2 Tag Teams: uno/Grayson & Silver/Reynolds 1 women’s star: Anna Jay 1 Midcard Guy: 10 1 lower card guy: 5 10 is improving but he still reads as bruiser henchman more than a leader. Uno can work as a leader (although he was great as Brodie’s snivelling #2) but he’s not really a singles guy who would be pushed as a main title competitor. I guess maybe Dark Order in it’s current form stays as a midcard group and stays out of the main event beyond being backup for Hangman?

Colt Cabana too, though he'd likely be midcard.
