I read that they didn't get post the full fixtures for the upcoming tournament. I don't like this decision therefore AEW is bad

The only obstacle is knowing how to count to four in time with the ref

Maybe I'm misunderstanding league tables or good booking but isn't having swerve vs mox now a little silly? Like, this is the de facto block finals but then we'll also each have a pointless match after it's decided because???

Unless i'm also reading it wrong it's only the finals if Swerve wins, If Moxley wins:
- Switchblade can still win the block by winning out and Swerve losing next week
- He can win the block by beating Jay next week regardless of what Swerve does against Rush

Okada's peak is better than anyone else in the world but for me nobody beats Kento Miyahara for sheer consistency, and he's the exact same way. He'll hit the Blackout knee 15+ times over the course of the match (to my delight each and every time) because otherwise he's only got the Big Boot, Headbutt and German Suplex

The NEVER titles fully justified their existence by giving us main event YOSHI-HASHI.

Hell yeah, that year long reign of YOSHI-HASHI and friends where the titles were invariably the only thing making the Road To shows worth tuning in for live

Giulia should go to AJPW and wrestle Nakajima for the Triple Crown.

Either that or go to SEAd to fight the other Nakajima, it's another chance to get kicked real hard

DDT employs Kazuki Hirata who is the best comedy wrestler in the world, man has been saddled with so many dumbshit stipulation matches yet consistently manages to pull gold from the stone

I was just teasing, anyways, AJPW has been a light in the darkness and Nakajima v. Miyahara for the TC will probably be the best wrestling match happening this weekend. Wish I could watch it with my AJPW sub though

The Dec 31st and Jan 3rd shows are still listed on the Battle Library live schedule, so might just need to set a vpn to Japanto access it like when fite carry the New Japan american shows

I'd be more into Ishimori having an AEW run if he did anything remotely interesting over the past 4 years or so

He threw up a nazi salute during his entrance a couple of weeks ago, that was pretty interesting

Also BC Cutest Tag Team was fun

I will never forgive whoever it was on Dark commentary that kept mixing up Shunma and MAO. You fuckers, Takeshita finally backdoored 37KAMIINA into AEW and you don't even look close enough to realise one of them had their name on their gear in big letters

Not sure about next week, but he's facing Yuma Aoyagi in two weeks so that's good news

gently caress it, bring in 37KAMIINA or Bishamon or any of the cool CMLL teams I don't know, it's can't have been that hard to pump it up to 16 teams and incorporate partner promotions. Even if the fans know they're not going to win it at least gives the illusion that these titles are ones the world wants to have

Kawada kicks just barely looked good when Kawada (the fourth best pillar) did them, and it’s diminishing returns with every person that’s done them since.

Only Taichi should be able to use the Kawada kicks, as his only disciple and also doing them lovely on purpose because it pissed Kawada off

Hard pass, Cage had by far the worst match of the night when WSW came to Perth last year. He and Eric Young made 9 minutes feel like 25.

Put him back with Chuck Taylor to restore the feeling
