so what you're saying is that Jericho/Cody main evented Full Gear 2019

they did. moxley vs omega was unsanctioned and lights out and thus happened after the main event as officially, the card as sanctioned by AEW was over.

Makes sense, otherwise you could start a fight with the person sat next to you once the last match on the card finishes and then you get to claim you main evented the show.

Because all the other matches finished quicker than they expected due to AEW having a lot of really good wrestlers and Tony Khan still had 45 minutes of time in their agreed slot on the broadcast feed, and you don’t get to be a billionaire by letting your staff clock off early so he kept the production crew filming.

Funny Little Guy Aficionado.
because wrestling is a sport about exploiting people's bodies and health for violence and it sells, and companies will happily give themselves the barest fiction of not being involved to skirt around when that violence 'should' be too much for their rules, because they know that we'll come for it.

and also in real life!

It's been incredibly risky to have fans back for at least a month, but as mentioned before they're not going anywhere, best case scenario these arenas that mostly have mask mandates actually start enforcing them on the audience, seeing an ~80% maskless crowd every week is getting more than a little concerning

The Chicago Rampage for "The First Dance" was the first day of the Chicago mask mandate. They had signs on the door to wear a mask. The show started with most people masked during the Dark taping, but I feel like by the end of the night it was 50/50 people still wearing their mask. It was like people started eating and drinking beer and just left them off after that.

There was a girl sitting behind me with a loving MAGA purse that didn't wear hers the entire night.

But it's been 11 days and I'm COVID free! A bit worried about going to the three shows and coming back from one of the first two sick and not making it to All Out. And I have tickets in a combo seat section, where I am sure everyone else I'm sitting with will be there for all 3 nights

AEW Casino Battle Royal participant spoilers from Dark taping

Red Velvet and Skye Blue had a great match. After the match, Tony came out and asked Skye Blue if she wanted to be in the Battle Royal!

I guess that only leaves one mystery spot for the match.

The Julia stuff can be cleared with Julia, they're co-workers. The heat was because he brought up gross stuff that happened at Duke and after it got mainstream attention the Julia stuff looked worse

backstage reports are that max was "disappointed" when tony khan was handing out gimmicks and "immature sex pest" and "pyromaniac firefighter" were the only gimmicks left, because he hates firefighters

You think he'll still have a job if he does it again? That'd be direct insubordination of Tony Khan.

i doubt that he does it again, but at the same time im going to bet the line is going to be pushed back even further and people are going to look for him to gently caress up over the smallest thing this time

I'd believe it if they told him his rear end is grass if he fucks up again, but at the same time this wasn't the first time he was loving up while in the gimmick in the first place, so the skepticism on it being a "one-time only" thing on his part just because he finally got in actual trouble for it is definitely warranted

You're right, Tony should have come on stage and explicitly laid out the Ten Max Commandments Caster has to follow in his verses to avoid crossing the line again.

TK also said it was on the Dark editing team for not cutting it over a full 6 days. The live crowd didn't flock to Twitter about it, it was only a thing once it aired on Youtube.
