Take me to your Shida



Hello again friends and welcome to another round of the AEW Prediction Game

Form can be found here - https://forms.gle/hHpRtfeDk45Ff1w6A

Here are the criteria I use for point values (in no particular order)
1: Match importance
2: General Hype
3: My own hype
4: How hard it could be to predict

"Hype" is sort of a catch all for just like "drat this match is going to rule" and also a good storyline/build. The top three get 15/10/10 values and then the rest are 7/5/3 just based on general feel.

For the main event prop, generally I would call the finish dirty if doing something illegal directly results in the finish. Sort of a "I'll know it if I see it" thing.

There's not as many prop bets as there have been in the past because I wasn't really feeling it for a lot of the matches, or the ones I could think of were too much for me to keep track of. But if you could add a prop bet to a match that didn't have one (without copying one already in use), tell us what it would be!so I can steal it for use in a future prediction game

e: no the Eddie/Akiyama match isn't in here because I posted it as soon as they went off the air I GUESS THAT'S A LESS ON I NEED TO LEARN FOR NEXT TIME :argh:

In general there seems to be more consensus on this pape than the last. It’s probably gonna come down to the ROH title match.

I just got the gut feeling that the booking of this PPV is gonna piss me off. I'm fine with Mox losing but I have some horrible feeling that the BCC is also gonna break up for some stupid reason, which WOULD legitimately turn me off AEW.

Detailed prediction for the main event finish:

MJF is serious about winning without help, but he can't put Mox away clean, and eventually finds himself with an opportunity to use Regal's knucks and goes for it. Mox kicks out anyway. With no other options except losing with dignity, MJF accepts the ring from a cackling Stokely, and this is enough to finish Mox. The Firm comes out for a post-match beatdown and Regal tries to intervene, and this time MJF hits him with the ring too

A country where you can always get richer.
I think that MJF is going to look like he's winning over Mox, so Regal decides to finish the job by popping Mox in the jaw with the knucks. So in short I think Fuchs is right and should sturdy his soul. And I think The Elite are going to go over, royally pissing off everyone else too.

The way things are going, there may only be 64 entries!

I don't think people will be pissed off if the Elite win. I love Death Triangle and I want them to win so they're not just interim champs but the Elite are rad too

PAC is going to give Fenix the tiny hammer but Ray will honourably throw it away. Then the Bucks will give him stereo superkicks with little hammers glued to the souls of their shoes.

I've been involved in a number of cults, both as a leader and a follower.

You have more fun as a follower. But you make more money as a leader.

I think the trios scene just doesn't need the Elite right now as much as other divisions. I know Tony was saving the belts for them initially, but Death Triangle ran with it and should be rewarded plus HOB returning is a potentially hot angle. DT doesn't deserve to lose the belts when the feud had no real buildup beyond pretaped teasers.

i'm taking all the Ls now, sorry
I would be super bummed if DT don't win but I bet on The Elite anyway.

Also I never considered BCC would break up tonight. That would actually bum me out too. Unless Regal betrays them and Yuta steps up to keep the BCC going somehow.

I was joint second last time so I'm willing to bet I'm not equalling or beating that this time round.

As for other things, is the Toxx thread still around? I can't see it anywhere and I fully believe mine will be fulfilled tonight.

BCC breaking up (or at least having some splintering) would be fine to me, primarily because I want Danielson freed up to do his own poo poo sometime in the next six months. I wouldn't mind it if the ROH four way led to dissension between both Danielson/Claudio and Jericho/Sammy

if it makes you feel better at least four other people did the same (unless there are two people who legitimately think it will be the main event)
