There's a lot to be impressed with FTR about
-can have a match that compliments the opponents style, including some fun comedy matches on Darks.
-Have a clear through-line for their characters that have made all their angles make sense, including leaving a stable and firing a manager, both of which are rare to not feel like a big rug-pull.
-Can work as singles wrestlers, but have made it clear that tag team wrestling is their thing.
-Their theme

Just went back and watched Andrade/Darby and noticed a funny detail:

Justin Roberts announced Andrade at the updated weight and Andrade gave him a thumbs-up for getting it right

Also, Excalibur DID mention Andrade's new workout, specifically that he now weighed 241

Went back and watched dynamite again. My god the Yuta Danielson match is so good. Danielson is at another level. Like I don't know if I've ever seen someone look as unbeatable. And by that I don't mean by booking I mean ability. Like he has this aura of legit fighter and wrestler that only folks like Angle or the shooters of days of old have had.

It's been said a bunch already but it's crazy how good Jade has gotten since becoming champion. She's always had obvious potential, but she already feels like a huge deal and not just in a "she'll be a credible opponent for our real champion to beat" kind of way.

I also really like the storyline with Mark not fully believing in her, and her being unfailingly confident despite it.

I really enjoyed that, too. Smart Mark is great in general, and that was a fun wrinkle to their relationship. He obviously wants Jade to win, but he's perfectly willing to have her go up against jobbers. Jade's getting more confident and wants actual challenges now.

Presumably she's going to bite off more than she can chew pretty soon.

And just started thinking about how fun it'd be to see a stable, even short-lived (even just for a trios tournament) of FTR & Punk managed by Bret. Just three dudes who loving love the Hitman beating everyone's asses.

My first thought seeing this is, "well obviously they/he would fued with the Shawn Michaels disciple Adam Cole", which then makes me wonder whether they'd put the belt on Cole for it.

Don't think it's correct, or even necessary, mind. Just the first thing that popped into my head.

This might sound weird but that's kinda exactly what I figured. That's cool though and Yuta is rapidly climbing my list.

I've liked him for a while, but it's insanely good how they're booking him and pushing him. Yet another great example of AEW creating new stars by letting them have strong showings against highly rated stars.

And holy poo poo that was a good Dynamite. Super hard to pick MOTN and it was just a non-stop show of great moments and good times.

Also hope your dad gets better.

I know exactly what you mean and I 100% agree. He constantly looks like he's in perfect control of his body, and when he's grappling with someone he effortlessly controls them as well. I think his facial expressions help a lot as well, that evil and menacing smile he has during his matches. He's just a guy who knows he's really good and enjoys working over people in the ring.

As a Danielson fan I couldn't really be happier about his AEW career.

I SAID WE'RE NOT GONNA BE FUCKING SUCK THIS YEAR!!!

Very good Dynamite.

Everybody loves the Accliamed. Caster is def getting better. I felt for a long time he seemed slow or hesitant after his suspension, but the raps and the in ring work are steadily improving. Need to see those dudes finally get a big W and get over the hump cause EVERYBODY LOVES THE ACCLAIMED. Bowens is still the better of the two, but I love their buddy dynamic.

Mox/Lethal was fine and good, Lethal being increasingly frustrated and personally hurt that being the best face he can be isn't enough is kinda intriguing.

Jade needs to toss Smart Mark and that'll be fun when it does happen. Double Strap her is still my position. I liked that they actually let Rosa do some talking (it was good and she gets a pop everytime). Nyla with the amazing comeback, she deserves that shine.

Danielson/Yuta was the best match of the night. Best story telling, great action, couple of credible near falls. Can't wait to see Regal finally come down and act like he's gonna smack, but extend the hand instead. That'll be a cool moment.

Redragon can stay but get Cole off my screen. Goofy goblin heels are great, but Cole's poo poo has worn thin as he just gets chumped everytime. I'm very ready for Kenny to come back, take the bucks and get into a feud with the Undisputed Elite. Belt stealing is so dumb to me, so I'm glad that angle didn't last long. I just want Hangman to have something better than repeat bs with Cole to do.

Toni Storm instantly seemed more credible than Soho, and I hate to compare them, but I have and will. Didn't watch her in the fed, but she instantly looked smoother and more credible to me than Soho has, so I look forward to her run in this Hart Tournament. The bunny is fun though, her and Penelope had that fun tag thing, I wouldn't mind more of that.

Andrade hasn't been taken seriously enough, I hope that this match gets him that rub. Darby is a great performer, I'm still not sure what to do with him on the card, but if they keep having him get into fun feuds it'll be fine. I really don't like the modified Family Office thing, they need to rebrand that entire entrance video package for them now that Matt Hardy is out.

I think they just went on opposite trajectories. I bought Britt at the start and then her star energy kept going down, meanwhile Jade's been building hers up.

Dumb country hick poo poo or "look how authentically country I am when I drive back home to the suburbs" poo poo. Tesla sucks, but putting a comical pair of horns on a tesla is very much in Hangman Page's wheelhouse.

Oddly enough, the coolest vehicle he's driven for AEW so far has been the dark order riding mower.

It also probably reads better on TV because you can see that he's driving a Tesla, whereas if it's a pickup truck there's no immediate recognition that it's an electric vehicle.

This also isn't the first time he's rolled up in that thing and I wonder if it's actually his vehicle? I would both be surprised and not be surprised if it was.
