Yeah so where are all the people who are drawn to watching her on tv because they sure don’t seem to be watching AEW right now

I think it's pretty obvious that you killed all of them so you could come make your little posts in this thread. Pretty messed up thing to do. I dunno. I personally wouldn't kill hundreds of thousands of people just to say a wrestler isn't a draw.

Jade chat reminds me that I miss Smart Mark Sterling. Has he been banished to the internet promotion?

Currently he's only managing the Premier Athletes (Tony Nese and Josh Woods), who haven't been focused much lately, but they've had airtime at Supercard of Honor (adding Ariya Daivari) and at the following show.

Uh...yes. Though RoH is good and you should check it out!

Jade was good. Wish she had a higher ceiling but I liked seeing her do a cool move and win.

Really hosed up that he would do this :/ Almost as hosed up as CM Punk refusing to gain those 300 lbs. so he could be a physical match for Joe. Sad times we live in.

She has some good lines occasionally, I liked "That Bitch" and "Cut the poo poo, Tony." a lot when she came up with them, but it felt like she was always a few steps away from putting it all together into consistently good promos. The "Cut the poo poo" line got suuuuuuuuper run into the ground by the end of her run.

Big boot from the top rope that shatters your own leg vs. Big boot that connects with your opponent's thigh because you have the flexibility of modern day Matt Hardy.

Punk is an absolute muppet who in reality shouldn't have "won" the situation, but I can absolutely see why he and his fans feel smug after that segment.

The FTR promo was much more enjoyable but I still don't like the referencing other promotions nonsense. I don't think I've ever liked it. The rest of the show has been pretty good.

The Punk tape backfired because Tony Khan sadly overestimated the intelligence of 85% of wrestling fans.

He was trying to pop a quarter and he did. You can argue the short-sightedness of that, but I think he knew what he was doing.

The more I think about it, I think they should've aired the footage and brought Jack back on the same night. There needed to be some kinda big angle to go with it and that would've counted.

He should have split it. Play the first part of the footage, right before it got physical, then have the bucks encounter technical difficulties. Then play the rest later in the show. This way you show the audience early on that you are going to be showing the real footage, but also getting them to stick around for the whole show.

I guess it was more that I was hoping showing the footage would change a few minds, idk. Instead the idiots have gotten louder.

It would have been better if there was a stronger show to hook viewers who watched just for the tape, though a mid Dynamite is still a great wrestling show.
