OC/Cezar making MOTYC really proves AEW gets graded on a curve

We're on the payroll, after all.

WMOTY: Jamie Hayter vs Red Velvet

This match was really bad. Red Velvet was terrible in this match. As a fan of Jamie Hayter this was a disappointing return match.

Just catching up on it now. If this is meant to re-debut someone as the “muscle” in a stable, then it was booked all wrong. It should’ve been far shorter, and with Hayter obliterating Red Velvet.

That would've sucked.

Would’ve been better than the match we got.

Velvet getting ragolled all over the place was good, actually

Well, yes. Less Red Velvet offence, more of her getting ragdolled everywhere. Maybe it was just a lack of chemistry or an off-night, but something clearly wasn't working.

Agreed 100% here. I'm riding the high of it being so fresh in my mind, but I think this is the best PPV I've ever seen. Every match delivered (QT and Paul Wight was inoffensive and short) and the great matches were really amazing. That tag title match deserves to be on the short list of best wrestling matches ever, simple as that.

Even the Gargantuan Spectacle vs QT match did what it had to, and didn't overstay its welcome.

It's definitely a contender for "show of the year."

HM: Sonny Kiss vs Joey Janela

Yep. Sonny Kiss vs Janela probably wouldn't have looked out of place somewhere on the All Out card. Plus, it was nice to see some actual progression happen in the Dark Order storyline. So yeah, nice change of pace.

It's proper hosed to me that Kento Miyahara has 0 MOTYC (because only 4 or 5 people on the forums watch All Japan) but AEW has 64 when Kento is a slam dunk top 15 performer in the world right now. Like, it's cool that western fans that don't want to watch puro/lucha finally have a decent company to support, but Jesus

Since you mentioned All Japan and AEW in the same sentence, it would be neat if AJPW guys like Kento, Jake Lee and Suwama make their way through the Forbidden Door soon.

Oh, Samuray Del Sol? I’d almost forgotten he’d been sacked by the WWE. I take it he did a good lucha thing?

nthing the Dynamite matches. Show ruled. Except Jericho's comments about Paige Vanzant. That was a bit gross, and reminded me of some of his stuff from WWF that really hasn't aged well.

I love that Adam Cole's character is an irrationally angry dickhead who picks fights with goofy people for no reason, drags the Bucks into it, and then inevitably gets his comeuppance in multi-man tag matches.

It's great.
