Great show tonight. The main event slapped, the opener was real good, Dante/Sydal was still good the second time, Sammy continues to look like a superstar (he'd better beat MJF on Wednesday!) and Miro going full crazed religious zealot is incredible

I live in mortal terror every waking moment of my life that Miro is going to see me through the television screen.

Miro is reaching Minoru Suzuki levels of murder :stonk:

Oh I kept reading the thread and everyone's doing the Miro/Suzuki comparison. I thought I was being really smart with that :negative:

I wonder how long Christian has known Jungle Boy.

This is cool and really adds to their mentor/protogee relationship

He actively avoids challenging Kenny, which is not a good look for your top young babyface.

This is already what's happening though and I don't think they're going to lose the crowd on this because it's not just them refusing to pull the trigger. There are very clear human reasons behind Hangman ducking Kenny which we all understand and empathise with. Hangman's not going to go after Kenny without some big emotional catalyst (probably the Elite destroying Dark Order making him too pissed off to care) cause if he just suddenly decided he was ok to fight Kenny then it wouldn't feel earned. His journey to the top is just as much about beating his own demons as it is beating Kenny.

I still think Full Gear is more likely than All Out for Hangman's title win, mostly cause I think it would be silly to have Kenny drop the belt before giving Darby a PPV main event

How the gently caress do you take a poisonrana without getting hurt?

It's cool that they let Pillman have a shot at making his idea work cause him and Pillman have clicked way better since adding Julia and fully leaning into the gimmick

MJeff posted:

It is interesting that Pillman seems to be the driving force behind it creatively because you watch their matches and it's clear as day that AEW views Griff as the guy from that team and Pillman as, uh, not.

Griff's not the one getting the big Miro match

I wasn't watching AEW when the Brodie Lee tribute thing went down, so I only saw the videos much later. I was pretty surprised to see Eddie Kingston doing a big, impassioned speech to the locker room before the event, so I guess Eddie hasn't found respect just in front of the audience, but in the locker room as well.

You love to see it.

Obviously the Elite are the EVPs and Mox is the ace and Hangman's the future star but in many ways Eddie feels like the soul of AEW. His personal story of hustling in the minor leagues for two decades before finally getting a shot at the big time is a perfect mirror for the state of wrestling in America and I feel like more than anyone he symbolises what AEW is trying to be.

this is a thing that happens in real punchsports too though, limited but famous/entertaining fighters get protected and pushed to the top because they’re bigger potential draws than a more complete fighter who is kinda dull

E: although if it just feels jarring to your ear to hear those specific insidey terms from a wrestler in a promo then yeah I can understand that

Yeah the terms do make sense in kayfabe in that MJF is protected by rarely having to have fights and the company pushes him in all their merch and promotion
