Is Dynamite gonna be good this week. Gimme the scoop

Well, it technically looks good and it's taped so there might be fewer camera and audio snafus. Agreed that the past two weeks have been kind of lackluster, and I still don't know if it's down to the shows not being as enjoyable or watching wrestling later on a Friday evening (in the states) kills my enjoyment. That mid-week kick really does it for me.

I don't want to see Stu do the Knightfall to anyone because one day that move is going to obliterate his tibia.

He explained the science behind the move and why it won't on an Unrestricted. It's pretty fascinating.

I'm not making a fucking QCS thread for this but seriously can we take a harder stance on Kiwifarms freaks like this guy, Jesus Christ seriously, you used to be better at knocking these creeps down. I guess ADTRW mods aren't responsible like GBS mods are.

I think a lot about how, for 19 years, no one was willing to put their money on Kingston, and the second someone did he immediately became a headliner. To the point that it would probably be a good move to have him take the belt off of Omega.

If Eddie hasn't won it by the time MJF wins it, I kinda want Eddie to be the guy who beats him. Working class irish/nuyorican vs psychotic rich guy? C'mon.

Jungle Boy can wait until after Eddie drops it.

I've said it before, MJF vs. Eddie would be an incredible feud, especially if the match happens in a New York venue.

Road To video putting over basically everyone involved, you love to see it. Cannot be understated how big of a get it was to sign Eddie, jesus. Glad to see Death Triangle constantly being put in the main events but I need one of those guys to win a belt soon, they are way too loving good to keep spinning wheels.

Not to be combative but I hate this mentality. Just because you don't have a belt doesn't mean you're spinning wheels. As long as you are in good storylines and feuds and have good bits it's worth the tv time.

In any other company at any other time I'd be with you. And I am with you I love those guys - followed them since LU. But I can't make that blanket statement in AEW because there are so many strong acts. And AEW keeps making new stars. And I also don't like the idea of it's someone's turn.


With that said I think Hangman, MJF, Eddie and Jungle Boy are all obvious future champs due to how strong and consistently they've been pushed. I'm more curious on who will be the first two time champ. I'd say Mox.

Tony Khan, you coward, it better be in the Hammerstein Ballroom, the extra heat on MJF from being from Long Island would be nuclear.

It's really straightforward and also requires incredible precision: as long as his knee and ankle are aligned basically perfectly, so he's forming a essentially a 90 degree angle with his knee, the impact is transferred right into the ground through the tibia, which is incredibly strong. As long as his ankle and knee are stacked, it's incredibly safe.

I don't know how much leeway a move like that has but if his alignment is ever too far off and/or his opponent is just a little heavier than the angle supports bad poo poo is going to happen to his joints. It helps that he's been doing martial arts for most of his life so his proprioception is strong enough to give him that sense of his structure and that confidence in his skill because the failure state is horrifying.

Fundamentally, I just want Uno to have a good showing. I want him to be in the ring with Miro and look like he belongs there. I want a couple of near falls that I trick myself into believing are more than near falls. I want a moment where Miro realises he has to take him seriously.

I know he's going to lose, but he can win while losing.

Uno's body shape and doofy middle manager persona make it easy to forget he's pretty darn good at this wrestling thing. He'll be fine :)

Yup and good in a way that puts him just a touch above even a lot of other wrestlers. Think of how many wrestlers do standard backbreakers but let their opponent sort of slide off or don't really post and set on their leg like Stu does. I'm not even trying to shade or shame them, Stu is genuinely something special.

He's going to embarrass himself by pissing his pants as soon as the bell rings, then Miro will slip on the piss trying to attack him and Uno will pin him for the belt.

Really hope WWE doesn't try to get him back because Tommy End would absolutely 100% take their deal and return. From his twitch streams it seems he'd still want to work there and he needs to be protected for his own good lol
I think he was being super diplomatic but on Renee's podcast he started talking about how frustrated he was with things, casting a little doubt on Vince's responses and he hinted he believed there was a specific reason he was cut but did not feel like it should be discussed yet.

I don't think he'll be tricked with just words but if they offer him more money or to sign his wife as well I think he's going back. I could definitely see him popping up at All Out though, like, the timing is good and you know TK knows exactly how to talk to wrestlers about their ideas. The stuff Tall Paul and Hobbs said recently definitely seems like if TK gets his voice in Tommy End's ear he's going to AEW.

Yeah I'm legitimately sad they didn't pivot to like, Ethan Page being "Miro should thank me" for the win over Darby and Miro beats his face in for daring to steal his thunder.

And then he forgives him. And then he forgives Scorpio Sky. But I guess TK really like Ethan vs Darby.
