HP: Kevin Knight speaks for the LA Dojo, AEW Dark 5/17

Maybe I was just excited to see the dojo boys, but I also didn't expect one of the newer members to take over the promo. What a silky smooth murderer, even if he is still a little green.

Biggest Disappointment of the Year
22nd April
AEW Rampage
Adam Cole vs Tomohiro Ishii

Boy did this not work. I'm not sure I've seen a worse Ishii singles match, at least not anything he's done in a decade. It's not awful or even really bad, it's just mediocre. No chemistry. Adam Cole looking tiny and throwing dogshit strikes with Ishii. Just did not work for me

Show of the Year: New Japan BoSJ 24/05

Just a great show top to bottom. Everyone had their working boots on for the free show and there wasn’t a single bad match in there

Yeah I'll second that, wasn't a bad match on the card and the energy was up for everybody the entire night through despite being a really packed card with a ton of matches.

Agreed, show was really fun at every turn. nothing dragged, nothing felt like filler, everything was some degree of good even.

if I have been very busy and do not have time in my life for BOSJ, should I just throw in last night's show or would I be missing out? Might be able to eke out space for the MOTYCs but definitely not all the HMs...

The whole show was a blast, the great matches were great but there wasn't a bad match on the entire show and all of them had something exciting about them (Connors and Taguchi in particular was a delight). I think the "worst" match was Akira vs. Zayne, which was the first match on the card, and even that was good!

big Nth to this one. The slow strap drops and everything.

There's 2 things AEW production does better than anyone else, and the other one is people flying in from off camera.

My favourite part was how Spears sold it, like in his panic, he forgot that Wardlow was right behind him, until he realised it wasn't just Wardlow but angry, straps-down WARDLOW instead.
