Production felt a bit different tonight, i kinda liked it

also dynamite next week has some absolute bangers

Promos were good on this show too, obviously billy, but joe�s the problem with people like you and acclaimed being serious were also solid

The crowd singing Metalingus was so cool. Must be a cool band.

Crowd singing owns. The lyrics of the song are actually fuckin perfect for the kind of run cope is able to have here after his previous �comeback� run

Not really super high on the rest of Alter Bridge�s catalog though

tony wants us to know we�re in the superstar era of aew now.

okada taking the belt off a bum like eddie wasn�t subtle at all

My feeling especially during the beginning part of that match is that okada is an incredible dick (affectionate)

They're obviously building up to a Wardlow turn on Cole, I wonder if you pair Wardlow and MJF back together as a babyface team once MJF's cleared. Seems like it could be a fun change of pace for MJF and would probably help Wardlow, too.

Yeah but unlike the turn on mjf i don�t care at all

I get where Adam cole is supposed to be underestimating wardlow or something but Adam Cole has not been booked to be dumb

He has been booked to be manipulative and crafty

Why the gently caress would he think that wardlow would accept his domineering after max did the same thing

I feel like there is a twist there they have either been planning or waiting for, with wardlow expecting the betrayal and the second they try to do the stable beatdown, he kicks Adam cole in the foot and dives out of the ring or something

This cannot just be them redoing the wardlow/mjf feud with wardlow being expected to get babyface shine from being dumped on, that would suck

I do expect there�s some sort of a twist

Okada turned heel immediately upon joining and Ospreay is part of a heel group(?) and people go crazy for both of them

Osprey is playing mega face while being aligned with the most nuclear heat heel on the roster and they are dealing with it basically by ignoring it, which kinda owns

I kind of assumed his first major angle in AEW would be breaking off from the Don Callis Family so that they're choosing instead to just ignore the association for the most part is an interesting route to take. My positive assumption on the matter is that they're waiting for Mark Davis to get healthy before they actually get the breakoff started.

I could see this, UE breaking away from callis

I had to go rewind during the match because the way he sold Eddie�s kick/chop combo was so fuckin good

It was! The way okada was able to get over that he was a cocky superior rear end in a top hat but that eddie is still actually a real threat was pretty drat impressive

Okada: might be good at this?
