Shard posted:you have to understand the absolute insane level of match quality AEW has been putting out since 2019. It really is an excess of riches. Go look up the tag title cage match between the Lucha Bros and Young Bucks. Or their ladder match. Or Kenny Omega vs Orange Cassidy vs Pac, or Hangman vs Swerve Texas Deathmatch or Will Osprey vs Kenny Omega in NJPW and AEW. i wanted to like gunther vs sami but someone like eddie or danielson puts on the same type of match every week without the constant breaks to play to the crowd

the main event mafia was a terrible angle but it led to steiner getting ten minutes of promo time every week so its impossible to say if it was bad or not

If Cody wins it, how long until he gets Brocked and does that match end quicker then when Kofi got Brocked?

I am personally jealous that you will first get to see the 4 Horsemen “imposter” angle that was my absolute fave as a kid.

I tried going through classic shows back when I had a Network subscription. Honestly, weekly wrestling television ages like milk even during wrestling's "good" periods. I can't imagine watching more than just the PPVs unless I had a podcast.

WWE is financially bulletproof so frankly I think they should have Cody lose for two reasons: 1) it’d be funny 2) what are the stans gonna do? Watch AEW?

one of my fave matches ever is a 2 out of 3 falls rey mysterio & edge vs kurt angle and benoit match on a random smackdown. theres a kinda weird botch(?) with the finish but otherwise it owns https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UlEJ64VtSqs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nEsx30X7qfw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WANWyvvZ6oI

I can't imagine watching more than just the PPVs unless I had a podcast. The promos and commentary are usually pretty good for what I'm watch and most of the squash matches are good. Some of the wrestlers are duds so I fast forward or do other things during those matches. Watching Rock n' roll, Arn, or Mean Mark beat some jobbers is entertaining.

Early TNA definitely is worth watching. I was dying for something not WWE at the time. I remember seeing these crazy clips of stuff like Joe in ROH, the Canadian destroyer in tna and stuff when I was in college. I couldn't really watch ROH outside of clips because I couldn't afford to buy all the dvds so I watched TNA and stuff like the x division and abyss deathmatch stuff was exactly what I was looking for at the time. It felt crazy because it was this new fed with all these new faces I had never seen before. And then it kept trying to be WWE and got worse and worse.

I saw a clip of the show and the entire time I was like "what the gently caress is that red triangle in the ring." Apparently it was an advertisement for American Airlines on the barricade.

Maintaining my stance that a Dusty Finish w/ Cody thinking he's finished the story but then The Rock simply reverses the decision and stacks up Cody, Roman, and Damien and pins all three of them to take everything is the absolute funniest result.
