There haven't been many angles in AEW's history that I would say should be inducted into WrestleCrap, but the Guevara-Sky feud is approaching that. Pobody's nerfect.

From Brodie losing it onto this, there's only one decision I 1) agreed with and 2) thought led to anything good afterward, and that was Miro winning and thanking god for it every chance he got

The thing is, they stuck the landing! They pulled off a double turn and had a clean opening to move on, they even scrapped the mixed tag match so there was no compelling force keeping ATT and Sammy/Tay together!

I am willing to see where this goes because I cannot fathom they would do this without another good destination already in mind, but I cannot begin to imagine what the payoff could possibly be

edit: The best I can do is "Getting everyone pissed off about the quagmire the TNT title is stuck in so people go crazy when Miro returns and rescues it"

This angle has been, is, and probably will continue to be embarrassing.




Even if the end result is everyone just being heels, I think this may be one of the dumbest ways to get there.


Edit: though the matches have been good for the most part. That's probably the most frustrating thing.

jeez, this'd be so good. Miro returning to a massive pop, beating the poo poo out of Scorpio Sky, being all like 'I HAVE COME TO KILL GOD AND TAKE BACK THE BELT YOU HAVE ALL DESECRATED' and I don't think anyone'd disagree that Miro would be the face in this scenario

hell, you could also have Page, Scorp, Sammy and Tay begrudgingly teaming up to get it back, which Miro would counter with The Redeemed: Kip Sabian, Penelope Ford, and Fuego Del Sol, all with renewed purpose from Miro's forgiveness and tutelage. Of course, they'd slowly turn heel over time, but that'd be a hell of a way of redeeming this lovely storyline.

That TNT Title stuff sounds absolutely atrocious. I knew when they booked Kaz/Sky for this week that nothing good could come of it, but good lord. They're going to be in LA in less than a month. I'm amazed they didn't have the patience to do the match there. And Scorp was so over as a babyface after the ladder match. What the gently caress are they doing?

i'm at least waiting until i see how the match actually goes b/c sometimes the people who write summaries are real bad at actually understanding how things go and somehow i doubt they're, like, turning sammy and tay face again

plus i still like ethan and scorp as a duo and i wouldn't mind them staying together, and being quasifaces that still are absolutely happy about pulling some match fuckery against heels is a decent place for their vibe

The match itself was technically excellent but the crowd was dead because it was late and we were tired.

And as for what's happening, all around me people were asking what the gently caress are they doing because it's a total mess with Sammy and Sky because Sky went from possible face to definite heel and Sammy went from heel to maybe a face everyone boos or just a flat out heel? No one was quite sure. It was very strange.

mostly i just really liked how the leadup to the second stadium stampede was a feud between cartoon villains and actual gently caress-you evil villains but you wanted to cheer for the former b/c they were showing up the latter

it did lead to jericho's crew being faces for a bit (or at least everyone but jericho and hager) but at the very least it showed that they could do a dynamic of heels vs heels for a good while

At this point I think Sammy is too injured for the mixed tag and they want to do Tay-Kaz as a replacement team. Then you can have Sammy and Tay betray Kaz and keep them heel. CD can come out to help Kaz and you have a triple threat SCU match in the Forum.

You're overcomplicating things, simply have Kaz attack the Bucks and Daniels backs him up and when the Bucks say they broke up forever, Sammy walks down the ramp and goes "SCU is no more, but you can't stop SAMMY SEE YOU!" and Tay kicks them in the balls.
