The parts where stuff was shattering and dudes were getting dropped on shards of stuff that had shattered were fun. Jericho doing the green mist was the best part of the match. I looked away during the pizza cutter because I have a weird irrational fear of pizza cutters. No, I don't know why. Besides that, it was kinda boring? imo labor four should be against Suzuki.

Shard posted:Not seeing much thoughts about FTR and PNP. Honestly expected PNP to win. I kinda didn't. Makes more sense for FTR to win now and for PnP to beat FTR for the belts later. Of these two teams, FTR is the one you should be pushing first, in my opinion. And no, I have absolutely no idea who holds the belts between the Bucks and FTR now that Dark Order isn't getting a title shot. Lucha Bros?

xbilkis posted:I don't think Hangman's in danger of cooling off if you don't pull the trigger; I just don't think there's a better championship story to get the audience invested in in time for All Out. Christian Cage and Orange Cassidy can both be heated up very quickly. Lid posted:KENTA. That has nothing to do with him losing and also I'm still right about that.

xbilkis posted:OC headlined the last PPV and Christian has been embroiled in the same midcard feud for two months (and I don't think he's ever really gotten a super hot reception from the fans since his debut, although my personal opinion might be influencing my outlook there). I don't doubt that you could produce an enjoyable angle with either one of them, but I imagine it's going to feel slight no matter what after giving the audience a lengthy taste of the biggest feud you could put together right now. Orange Cassidy has a legit beef left over from Double or Nothing and outright said "this isn't over." Christian Cage is basically in the same position Miro was (except y'know, less bad than Miro was) where they're deliberately slow-playing him until they're ready to push him. I know I'm the high man on Christian Cage and not everybody else here is as high on him but OC at least, would get a massive pop just for walking out in the same segment as Kenny. That's all you need. GlenMR posted:Did Jericho and Tana ever have a match after the "Baka-hashi" promo in NJPW? There could be labour #4. Man, this is your lucky day. You get to watch that match for the first time. El Generico posted:Am I the only one who felt heel energy in this? Maybe just because Tana is so pure. He worked heel against Lance. I dunno. Moxley kinda has done everything there is to do as a face for now. I hope he's not turning though, I just love cheering for him too much.

I really think Hangman wins at Grand Slam because Tony wants to do Christian Cage vs. Omega first. btw theres rumors that a certain next big thing has signed with somebody that ain't New York.

According to Fightful Select, AEW and Shaq tried to bring in Kurt Angle and Impact tried to bring him in for a one shot. He was flattered and specifically said he has a soft spot for Impact but considers himself not physically able to perform anymore so he never seriously considered either offer. Too bad. Would still like to see Kurt as a manager in AEW.

While also appearing on a Walking Dead podcast probably. I never played MGS2 but I've seen that speech in it and it is loving blazingly on point. And then Death Stranding was like "lmao a future where America has collapsed, we're all isolated and completely reliant on deliverymen, yeah, nice one buddy, real likely." I wish Kojima would miss. Just once. Or that he would predict something nicer.

If it were up to AEW, I sincerely believe this would've been a complete surprise, but TNT's like "c'maaaaaaaaaaahn" with the surprises after Sting, so they're basically telling you without telling you so that there's that teeeny little bit of plausible deniability that lets you act like it's a surprise when that guitar rift hits.

I gotta be honest, I was having a hard time paying attention to it even before the injury because of its spot on the card. Following that 10-man tag and directly following the Tanahashi promo....not a great spot. Same thing with the First Dance announcement and the Hikuleo/Archer match. Just couldn't even pretend to actually be watching that match.

Crapple! posted:I thought Frankie Kazarian would interfere to assist the Dark Order. This seemed like the perfect time for him to do something meaningful The Elite wasn't using their numbers advantage and didn't cheat until the very end when Omega started pulling out belts. Kazarian only comes out as an equalizer. graph posted:not to veer but it's a lot more than a handful compadre Not to veer and shanky.

Hangman winning at Arthur Ashe has always made more sense. I spent a long time trying to figure out the alchemy of that with him winning this 10 man tag, instead of realizing it just made more sense for him to lose the tag.

Also I don't really feel the Naito comparison is apt at all. Hangman is winning the belt at, absolute latest, Full Gear, four months from now. Naito's journey start to finish took like seven years.

JUNGLE BOY posted:Having Hangman beat Kenny after Daniel Bryan is unable to beat him makes it even more impactful and checks off the high stakes dream match along the way If Hangman isnt winning at Arthur Ashe, Bryan should show up and immediately start beating the poo poo out of Hangman and screaming at him that he's not ready. Basically trying to beat Hangman either until he dies or is ready to beat Kenny.

smarxist posted:JB had his shot, if we're looking at rankings/build possibilities, it's gotta be Christian or OC, and you could argue OC already had his shot too sooooooo OC said "this isnt over." after DoN and the way that match went down he does have a valid claim to another shot. OC/Kenny is also a good main event for All Out. Personally I would prefer OC on TV (I was thinking First Dance but clearly that card doesnt need more juice) and Christian at All Out but either way is fine.

Also btw Punk/Darby isn't main eventing over the title. That's not happening, not in a million years, if anything it should OPEN the show. Now, MJF/Jericho for Jericho's career? Thaaaaaaat might main event over the title.

STAC Goat posted:People who care deeply about something have big reactions to it. I personally like the decision and think there's lots of great room for stuff with Page here that still keeps him on track to beat Kenny. But I also came at it as someone who felt like his story wasn't complete. For people who did feel his story was complete they're upset and worried that things might have gotten delayed. That's understandable and reasonable. So let people voice their thoughts and vent their concerns. I don't get why this place is s resistant to that and prefers to just insult people and act above it all. Agreed and just to be clear the ones being resistant, insulting and above it all are the ones that disagree with me.
