SatoshiMiwa posted:I'm okay with the Malakai finish even if it was awkward cause it was different for AEW. Now Tony have Garcia lose to Andrade on the C2 OTOH? Just crazy He was doing a thing there where Garcia lost all of his matches and then won the last one and winning against Brody put him into a long-term feud against HoB that at least ostensibly put him over, so I prefer that to him beating Andrade and then....that's it. imo a cool cage match finish would've been if he destroyed Malakai, left him for dead and strode out.

MJeff posted:Just offhand, I think Malakai Black could've put Daniel Garcia over a bit more by getting pinned or submitted by one of his wrestling holds rather than "not walking through a door quickly enough". Daniel Garcia could have just pinned Edge clean too if he was gonna get the tnt title match anyway, but ya know, gotta protect everybody

mooseinfants posted:Daniel Garcia could have just pinned Edge clean too if he was gonna get the tnt title match anyway, but ya know, gotta protect everybody I'm fine with protecting Copeland in that scenario because he is probably the one to beat Cage eventually and I do believe he'll do the right thing and put over Garcia some day, maybe even for this very title! But there is a concerning pattern here. He got his win in the C2 by rolling Brody up (this is fine, he's a technical wrestling babyface, that's fine), he beat House of Black by blindly falling off the side of a cage, he got his title shot via a no contest because the other guy took a conchairto and he's...probably gonna lose his title shot. Garcia is getting really, really over as a babyface, he's found the blend of having fun with the dancing and being a pro wrestler in the ring, and he's really starting to put it together as a complete performer in the ring and on the mic, so it'd be nice if somebody would actually put the fuckin' kid over.

He'll get over at the very same time that Ricky Starks does No it's not related but it's a similar madness I experience watching Starks

MJeff posted:The Bang Bang Scissor Gang story is so loving terrible, but I'll forgive it if it leads to BCG turning heel on these dorks and unifying the belts. I think I saw it in the bad twitter take thread, but someone said that knowing AEW booking Okada will just be goofing off with the Best Friends in 3 months and while I'm sure that would be fun I'm kinda worried it'll happen after seeing Jay White going from main eventing the Tokyo Dome to whatever this thing with the Acclaimed is. As much as I like the Acclaimed, the BCG should be at the very top of the card.

I think DG could beat Christian. It'd be great for him and a nice surprise result from the expected one of Edge beating Christian, which is a feud that kinda doesn't need the tnt title anyway. I don't hate BCG in the trios division. I think two sets of trios titles on AEW tv is obviously dumb though, and I'd also like to see some more trios teams made up of the people higher up the card though instead of more teams like Top Flight. Like I'd love to see a team of Mox/Claudio/Danileson get in the mix.

I think it's ok if the old guys beat the young guys sometimes, but they have to do it by being wily and using their experience, not just by kicking a lot of rear end. Old guys shouldn't be the last boss of the PPV, they should be the midcard gatekeepers and beating one of them should signify that you are reading for the upper midcard. This goes for Edge, Christian, Brock Anderson, Dustin Rhodes, etc. Not Sting though he should beat everyone's rear end then take over Vader's white castle of fear and hang out in the rafters once in a while as a fun little easter egg

I'm okay with the way we got to Garcia/Cage if they actually go with Garcia winning. It'd make him and add an interesting wrinkle to Cage/Copeland feud

Tony has a lot of the same issues that Gedo is also demonstrating where he's convinced himself that he can just beat the young guys forever because there's plenty of time for them to be stars 'later', not realising he's kind of killing them dead and making it that much harder to get there. In short: Either die a hero, or live long enough to see yourself become NOAH

I do not think that is Tony's booking philosophy at all. I think he has trouble keeping momentum going on big moments, but pulling the trigger on younger guys has never been one of his issues.

i'd assume the BBSG storyline is leading to a trios title unification but who knows with tony. Maybe he should steal the NEVER openweight trios titles and unify all 3 for a Trios Crown
