SatoshiMiwa posted:Like the product is cold in places and has some issues so I get where it's coming from as I'm not as high on AEW as I have been in the past but also it's just had it's best business year ever and while I really don't like the MJF stuff it's nowhere near WCW/TNA company killing bad. Yeah there’s parts of AEW that I don’t like for sure. I think MJF poo poo goes on way too long and there’s too much start and stop with certain people, but I’ve never left an AEW show pissed off. Even the most mid AEW show I can find a handful of things I liked. And the ring work is always good which at the end of the day is what I care about.

It's honestly bizarre how pissed off people can get when the product isn't to their liking. I think people might be developing a parasocial relationship with a wrestling company.

QT rules. I saw him wrestle Kenta at a njpw strong show and we were yelling at him and we asked who said it and we pointed at a kid and he acted like he was gonna hit the kid.

I liked the QTV segments (hated them at first) and especially liked when Johnny TV was doing them. I'm guessing they'll be done now, which is a shame.

Lamuella posted:what stand up for aew tweets? there were a couple vague tweets posted by aew wrestlers on the night of punk's debut and I don't think there have been any more other than the one mjf deleted it's not really a thing yet just saying I hope that doesn't become a thing going forward since 'morale is low' or whatever the one scoop guy said and the vague tweeting by wrestlers and whining about not being used already gets old the concept of losing cm punk to a competitor making the morale low after he destroyed the locker room a few times is the funniest 'report'

QTV deffo got somewhere good at the end, and QT is a perfect gatekeeper heel, he can make people glow. Sucks that he's gone, but I can't fault anyone who has reached their ceiling in AEW for wanting to go elsewhere and be bigger. Like when Danny Limelight was upper AEW Dark bound. Triple so because while I don't see what Alan Angels is doing, I know it has to be better than the current status of the Dark Order.

While it’s a weird time to post this as everything is on fire, this idea came to mind as something to do during the Continental Classic. With the solid roster (even Lethal) and the occasionally intriguing matchups that are forced to happen via the setup, I thought I would start ranking the week’s matches by how much I'm interested in them. Play along at home! 6. Jon Moxley vs. Jay Lethal: Lethal has the least amount of juice in this tournament and Moxley is a wrecking ball who has no reason to ever lose to Lethal. Maybe if the rest of Lethal’s stable was allowed, but that’s off the table. Should be a fine match, but there’s nothing especially gripping about it other than what could end up being the shortest match of the tournament. 5. Daniel Garcia vs. Andrade El Idolo: That they just did this match works against it and, in a way, works for it. I’m really invested in Daniel Garcia’s current frustrated and confused losing streak gimmick. That he’s doing that in a block with Eddie Kingston lowkey fascinates me. This could be his moment of clarity and his first step in getting his groove back. Maybe he can make it to a draw. Andrade winning feels like the most boring outcome. 4. Claudio Castagnoli vs. Brody King: I love Claudio and think the world of his in-ring skill, but after Lethal, he’s probably the least interesting guy in this tournament. Luckily, Brody makes for a compelling opponent. It’s the perfect follow-up to Brody vs. Eddie, though it’s sadly the last match for Brody where his opponent can physically stand up to him. I mean, unless he and Mox make it to the finals. 3. Mark Briscoe vs. Rush: This pairing just works. In fact, I’d say that Rush is probably Mark’s most promising opponent. You could easily do a PPV feud with these two and I’d be all for it. There’s almost a “two sides of the same coin” quality with these two as equally brutal dudes where on is self-serious and stylish while the other is a white trash goofball. This feels like a dark horse for match of the week. 2. Bryan Danielson vs. Eddie Kingston: I predict this to be the first draw of the tournament as it’s the only match in the whole tournament where two top faces are set to face off and I'm not sure if either should lose. Regardless, the quality of wrestlers means it has to be great with two of the most generous performers in AEW beating the poo poo out of each other. Considering how things are going and with my luck, this will end up putting Bryan on the shelf all over again. 1. Jay White vs. Swerve Strickland: This is the most fascinating match that AEW has put together since maybe the main event of All In. Heel vs. heel is rare enough, but this dynamic is something else. They’re two of the biggest heels in the company, but also two ships passing. You have one guy who just lost a PPV world title shot and really needs a rebound and you have another guy who just won a PPV match that’s meant to propel him up the ladder. I’m really curious where they go with this. Plus it should just be a kickass match to begin with.

Two absolute dirtbags in very different ways who can also back up all their shittalk in the ring. It's going to be fantastic.

Let me book MJF losing. He beats Joe at worlds end but Joe fucks his arm up bad. , Tony comes out really sad and is like, sorry buddy you gotta relinquish you're hurt. MJF says not without a match and a stream or wrestlers come out and MJF takes them on one by one, losing after 2-3 impromptu matches to Swerve.

Johnny TV has a bit of a new direction on ROH this upcoming week, feels like QTV dies with that. And QT was always solidly “okay” for me. He bugged me a bit when he talked about not booking more women’s matches because of the “ratio of men to women”, so I do wonder if his departure might also lead to some more women’s matches getting booked: https://www.fightful.com/wrestling/qt-marshall-addresses-criticisms-aew-not-having-enough-women-s-matches-look-ratio?amp That Bunkhouse match or whatever that he had with Dustin vs Butcher and Blade was loving awesome, though.
