neoaxd posted:NJPW controls the booking of the IWGP US title, right? I imagine Tony has to get them to sign off on title matches, and they will have approval on finishes, yes. Also, if Danielson and Punk are coming in, they're saving that for something like All Out or the Wednesday before the first Rampage.

Gumball Gumption posted:Also I really dig how long the Andrade vs. Death Triangle stuff was and how it just swapped between languages. As great as Alex is, I'm not sure he was needed, especially with Fenix miming what Penta was saying. If you're familiar with basically any of the Romance languages, it's pretty clear what he was saying and his delivery does the rest.

Lead Pipe Cinch posted:I’m very into the implication that Andrade’s going to have to have a tag team that “works for him” now that the Lucha Bros have turned him down and he’s gone and gotten himself in a trios match with Death Triangle. Absent a debut of someone like Rush/Ryu Lee, I wouldn’t hate them getting weird with it and trading out TH2’s neon for suits. Don't joke about Death Triangle vs Los Ingobernables

I wonder if Danielson does the G1 before going full time for AEW, like Mox did? He's definitely spoken about it like it was a goal for him at some point. It's one thing to do a 2 week quarantine if he's only doing one Dome show, but it's probably less of an ask to do it for a 3 week tour.

luchadornado posted:I keep thinking - how the hell do you have Nick Gage do network TV? The dude was adamant that he be allowed to finish a match minutes before dying. I haven't closely followed his career, but he doesn't seem like the person that has an act that can be toned down - it's just 100% Nick Gage. I get the distinct impression people are overselling this. No way Jericho would've OK'ed the match if he wasn't certain. It's gonna be more like one of Jericho's Tokyo Dome matches than a full-on deathmatch. There'll be chairs and tables, but we're not getting lighttubes and glass in what's almost definitely the opener.

The clip of the set up for the Labours definitely makes it sound like MJF is match 5, but I assume he'll pull a bait and switch and want to whip Jericho like he did Cody or something instead.

STAC Goat posted:I don't think a "TNT Title shot" is really a big enough carrot to make that idea work. You need something that's a big enough deal so Sammy doesn't look kind of selfish standing in Jericho's way and fighting him after he's been through hell. It could if you told a story where Sammy is willing to lay down, Jericho is a dick about it and expects him to, and Sammy gets mad and wants to prove himself or something like that. But that's not the Jericho story they're/he's telling so I wouldn't expect it. A shot at Omega/Page after All Out might make sense.

Deeb going to AEW full time, plus Riho, Emi and Shida, would pretty much kill any of the poo poo about the women's division being weak. Plus you have Baker, Nyla, Tay, Statlander and Bunny who are all solid.
