I can't say that AEW capitalized on the hype with Punk being on the show. They had a chance to show their best and it felt like a middle of the road show.

I said in the main thread it feels like not much thought when into this episode cause they knew 98% of the viewers are turning in for the CM PUNK TOWN HALL and that main event sure felt like it

I think that was by no means a bad episode, but it got pretty weird after the wingmen match. I think Lee Johnson could be a good opponent for Black, he ruled against Miro so he's definitely got the chops I think. IIRC we had similarly weird and kind of off Dynamites back immediately before DoN so they're probably just spinning their wheels as others have mentioned.

personally i would have booked a really good show to capitalize on the cm punk attention, not two hours of nothing, but what do i know

The last half just felt like the production truck came out of sync with the guys at gorilla position.

Codependent Poster posted:Pretty much all the Nightmare Family and Factory stuff dragged the show down. The Codyverse has been pretty weak since the end of Cody's TNT reign, if he wants to go make reality TV they should just kinda write it all off/away and move people on to more interesting poo poo imo Dustin doesn't wrestle much at all anymore. Lee Johnson needs a couple years in the undercard. QT can't hack his Sammy Vlog character on TV and Solo is negative charisma. I'm really dreading QT vs Tall Paul because Wight looked unsteady just standing at the top of the ramp lol edit: Comoroto owns tho

I dunno man, I'm a little annoyed that AEW had this massive rating on Friday and they advertise Punk for Wednesday and they have this chance to build all this momentum for the PPV and that's the show they delivered. Not good!

Yeah TBH I marked out a bit because Lee Johnson getting a push is a good thing, but this shouldn't have been the Main Event. Should have been Darby, Mox and Eddie against 2.0 and Garcia as payback for the last couple Dynamites.

Real average show which unfortunately makes it one of the worst compared to average dynamites

I wonder if there's also a sense of like "gently caress it we know we're gonna have the most viewers at the start so just frontload every episode" and then it just sorta peters out as it goes

lovely ep on the dynamite scale for sure. fun enough 2 hours but come on you have a big audience and showed them an ep of dark.

They took a chance by doing a bunch of showcases for their young/undercard talent on a show that would get eyes anyway because of CM Punk. Maybe it didn't quite knock it out of the park but it's a good thing they tried and it wasn't a terrible Dynamite.

Promos were all largely good, but like, that's because Black, Jericho, MJF, Mox, Miro, Punk, Dax, Callis, Cage and yes, Lambert are so good you can just give them 2-5 minutes and they'll get the job done. Matches were much spottier. Lucha Bros/Varsities kinda shows just how good the Bucks are because as good as Fenix and Penta are, they're not as good at covering for guys as green as BPJ and Griff are. Friday's match will probably be lots better.

Not good! This is the first show in I don’t know how long that has left me disappointed instead of buzzing. What a weird card. It wasn’t helped by matches that could have been better (LB v Blondes) just feeing off. Jamie Hayter rules though and Red Velvet takes bumps like nobody else in that division.
