So Christian beats Matt next week, Kenny uses that to justify giving him atheshot at Fight for the Fallen to avoid Hangman until All Out?

MassRafTer posted:It would be funny if Christian became #1 ranked because he beat a name guy while Hangman has been inactive the last two weeks. Kenny can heel any explanation he wants, do a call he Unamericans and say he only wants to defend against a fellow Canadian. Wouldn’t be the first time a champ got to call their shot against someone not ranked #1.

Tweak posted:Clearly anyone who might jump the line ahead of Hangman would be obviously filler destined to lose, but I think Christian of all people would be the most... wasteful? Pointless? Not only that but in character if he was offered the spot I feel like after a long promo insinuating he would kick Kenny’s rear end, he’d say he didnt out work Hangman- and that’s who deserves it right now. Yeah, that’s just the first thing I thought of since I don’t think Hangman is going to be the defense at Fight for the Fallen that Kenny mentioned he didn’t have any worthy challengers for. Anyway, looked like Cash rolled his ankle at the end of the trios match, anyone seen any status update on him?

explosivo posted:Obviously most Dark mainstays like Nemeth and his crew are pretty much mostly gone so are they dropping the Peter Avalon stuff wholesale? They really had no choice but it's crazy to think about how much effort was put into wrestlers who were (and are still) completely unsigned like video packages and original theme songs. Is it obvious? Multiple Dark mainstays people assumed were done taped matches for Elevation, so I think we probably need to give it a few weeks before we get a sense of who is well and truly out.

blunt posted:There are other elevation spoilers floating around that contradict the ones in the spoilers thread. I'm assuming a goon or two went to the show though 🤷♂️ Spoiler thread is pretty consistent with what that one dude who goes to every Florida wrestling event who live tweets “Scoops” of dark/Dark/Elevation matches was live tweeting from the show, but I’m curious what you’re referring to (which should probably be taken to the spoiler thread rather than here).

Full interview from Fightful coming soon, but lol:quote:After it was revealed that Tommy End's WWE non compete contract was only 30 days due to an oversight in by WWE, Fightful asked Buddy Murphy about his status. He confirmed that his non-compete is 90 days, but that WWE called him in a panic after his release, thinking that his might also be 30 as a result of what happened with the former Aleister Black. They offered to extend it to 90 days if Murphy so chose, but Murphy checked the details of his deal and confirmed that his non compete is through roughly August 31. Murphy is tending to his visa situation, which he's got the ball rolling on, but will have to have rectified by this fall to stay in the United States.

Shaman Tank Spec posted:Also, some people were kinda worried that Britt might be looking to jump to the WWE at some point in the future. Well, I don't think they have to be worried after that promo anymore, because that bridge is only slightly more burned than Vince was. People who thought that should read any interview Britt’s given over the last year, she’s effusive over AEW and how important maintaining her dental practice is to her.

rantmo posted:I just hope that these back to back Joshi matches are King's final test before her contract. Her Riho match was excellent and no doubt she and Yuka will have a banger and then we get footage of her getting signed on Tuesday and I will be happy. I think I missed her Riho match, what show was that on. I really like King and hope she sticks around, but she still desperately needs to pick a character and commit to it.

Pillman is basically a wrestling Golden Retriever, and AEW is probably the best spot for him if he’s going to meaningfully get better. I do think it’s weird they’ve apparently locked down Julia so quickly relative to other women they’ve brought back for Dark, but she does give them the little extra oomph they needed to click as a team.

Vince MechMahon posted:It's not Cody nepotism points. Do you think when people get out of the performance center onto NXT that's HHH nepotism? It's literally a school founded to be a place to get new young talent from. It literally wasn't though? It was QT and Glacier's school for a couple years before Cody also wanted to teach so he got brought on as an additional owner and they capitalized on his name recognition to grow the business. And there's a fundamental difference between getting paid to be at the PC than paying $4500 for a 12 week pro wrestling boot camp that happens to get you face time with decision makers from one of the two national TV wrestling promotions. Also, to be clear, I'm not mad or anything that Julia's gotten this opportunity and understand the sequence of events that got her in with Varsity Blondes, just kind of surprised that they see that level of upside with her, which is based only on what I've seen on Dark/Dynamite. I am at a "Huh, weird, ok" level with this.

Based on pictures from the show he also wrestled in long pants, which looked better than the trunks he typically wears, but I am also biased towards long boys.

Due to their questionable/intermittent implementation of alphabetical order, Malakai Black and Negative One are next to each other on the roster page and it’s very funny to have a grim dark metal head immediately adjacent to a 9 year old in a custom lucha mask.

forkboy84 posted:Not 100% but think he was a Chikara trainee with a Chikara gimmick. He did some ROH dates starting last year, he's been on the NJPW Strong shows & he's been a mainstay for Beyond. Current IWTV Champion, which I guess the gimmick there is it's like an indie version of the NWA touring champ, you can turn up & defend it on all sorts of IWTV affiliated promotions. Creating an insane conspiracy in my head where they moved the IWTV title off of Lee Moriarty to Wheeler so quickly so they could have Wheeler get heated up on AEW and drop it to Kenny Omega.

I am hoping to tonight’s match is the beginning of the FTW title being an actual ongoing concern on TV, not sure what specifically they could do to set it apart from the TNT Title, but if Ricky wins I think he could have some fun with how he presents and treats it.

Pylons posted:He was partially trained by Chuck and OC and makes a decent replacement for Trent? basically And we’ll also finally see what TK would’ve done if Ben Carter had stuck around, although I mainly think this match was mainly driven by a desire to get Sammy on the card in a showcase in Central Texas. I would imagine Archer and Thunder Rosa will get similar shots up in Dallas, although TR operates MPW more around Austin. Lead Pipe Cinch fucked around with this message at 19:53 on Jul 14, 2021 |
