I was gonna say the only thing I like about Sami is he's willing to lose, so of course this is the one time he wins*

*Per Cagematch, that's not exaggeration; in 2021 this is the first match he's won on an actually-televised Impact thing (he also had a win on Xplosion)

The Don Callis promo was really good, I thought. And Swann's thoughtful reaction was also good.

Agreed. Kenny needs to win though. Then Rich can win it back to complete the redemption story down the line (even though I think Rich is overrated; Impact doesn't really have anyone in their main event scene I wanna watch).

I think Moose is probably winning it back off of Kenny. Or Ace or Bey with Option C.

Supposedly Kenny Omega won't have the good brothers at his side during the upcoming PPV match with Swann. No idea where Swann got that idea but he's committed he won't have Chris Sabin at his side nor will he have Moose at his side. If they said yes, I'd bring them!!!

its because this 3v3 was the ppv match where he got pinned. the one he mentioned already. hes saying things will be different because, the match, is not a 3v3 this time.




also the tommy dreamer thing is for a show in april, as they said, not this episode.

If he's still there. I think his contract is up this summer and WWE will probably make a play for him now that spousal abuse and being staggeringly bad at Twitter isn't a dealbreaker for them.

I don't know if Kenny Omega NEEDS to beat Rich Swann. I think there are more stories to tell with AEW guys coming to Impact to take back their title than vice-versa, personally.

I thought he was quite good but a little hokey when he was The Jackyl. Nowadays, he is completely tuned in. He gets it.

Yeah I have no idea what changed. Maybe it’s the executive roles he has had where he has had to make big dog decisions, but yeah, he just exudes that confidence and executive presence.

I could absolutely picture him in a board room.

Love seeing this guy behind the mic now.

If this results in Don eventually working his way back around to AEW with Ibushi or Tana in tow, it's worth it.

...no they're not?

That's Russo levels of not making sense, and literally none of the booking in either AEW ever OR Impact in recent memory suggests they're that dumb.

It also doesn't fit with Callis being openly biased towards Kenny when doing commentary during Kenny's NJPW matches.

April 8th show is headlined by Swann/Edwards/Mack vs. Omega/Good Brothers, so that should be a selling point.
