You've got to admit, you are kind of implausible



It's Sunday and you know what that means! Tonight sees the debut of the inaugural Dynasty pape, and it is jammed packed with awesome* matches from start to finish! And for almost the first time, it's available to buy on a variety of platforms in the US!**


https://twitter.com/AEW/status/1782046632756027726

For the AEW World Championship: Samoa Joe vs Swerve Strickland

World Champion Samoa Joe has been dominant with this title just as he's been with all of his previous titles***. Meanwhile, Strickland is still looking to win his first singles title in AEW. Is Joe correct about Strickland being a choke artist? Or will tonight finally Swerve finally bring gold to his house?

https://twitter.com/AEW/status/1780234698775576936

In the Battle of the GOATS: "The American Dragon" Bryan Danielson vs "The Aerial Assassin" Will Ospreay

In the final year of Danielson's run as a full time wrestler****, tonight he takes on the hottest star in AEW right now, Will Ospreay! A win for either would be legendary, it all comes down to who possesses the greater intestinal fortitude.*****

https://twitter.com/AEW/status/1781450200743018863

For the AEW Women's World Championship: "Timeless" Toni Storm vs Thunder Rosa

Thunder Rosa has made her triumphant return, and she wants to regain the title she was never defeated for. But Toni Storm is in the midst of a iconic run with the title. Who will walk out with the gold?

https://twitter.com/AEW/status/1780936821058482521

For the vacant AEW World Tag Team Championship: The Young Bucks vs FTR in a Ladder Match

The two greatest tag teams all of time go at it two and two for just the fourth time in their careers. FTR currently lead the series 2-1, and just like all their previous matches, this one is for the titles. But this is a ladder match, and that's the Bucks specialty. Can the Bucks tie the series, or will FTR prove once and for all that they're the better team?

https://twitter.com/AEW/status/1780597092005662844

For the AEW Continental Championship: "The Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada vs "The Bastard" PAC

In another dream match,****** Okada defends his newly won Continental Title against PAC. PAC may be "The Bastard", but Okada has shown plenty of Bastard-like tendencies since joining AEW. Will that be his downfall against PAC, or will he continue to prove why he's a generational talent?

https://twitter.com/AEW/status/1781321865480241288

For the AEW International Championship: Roderick Strong vs Kyle O'Reilly

Friends, no more! O'Reilly returned after a career threatening injury, and while the Undisputed Kingdom was more than willing to welcome him back.******* But O'Reilly has shown a change in attitude, which didn't please Strong and the Kingdom, and now they square off with the International title on the line!

https://twitter.com/AEW/status/1780974573942456811

For the TBS Championship: Julia Hart vs Willow Nightingale

The Darkest Star in AEW defends her title against the Brightest Light! Nightingale is looking for her first AEW singles gold, and Hart will do anything to hold onto it. Can Willow overcome everything Hart can dish out, including the dreaded Black Mist?

https://twitter.com/AEW/status/1781012317666488525

For the FTW World Championship: HOOK vs "Lionheart" Chris Jericho

Jericho says he just wants to help HOOK, but HOOK, like the rest of us, has seen how that's worked out in the past.******** But Jericho has gotten his shot at HOOK's FTW World Championship, so maybe he still has a few tricks up his sleeves. Can HOOK avoid Jericho's tricks, or will Jericho go from "The Ocho" to "The Nueve"?

https://twitter.com/AEWonTV/status/1781812590202523781

In a Trios Match, the TNT Champion Adam Copeland, the Ring of Honor World Champion Mark Briscoe, and the NJPW Strong Openweight Champion Eddie Kingston team up to take on The House of Black!



And on ZERO HOUR:

https://twitter.com/AEW/status/1781057613829984568

For the AEW World Trios and Ring of Honor World Six-Man Championships: The Acclaimed & Billy Gunn vs Bullet Club Gold

The Bang Bang Scissor Gang********* is no more, and now they face off for all the gold as both teams Trios/Six-Man titles are on the line!

https://twitter.com/AEW/status/1781068938840838174

Orange Cassidy & "The Wrestler" Katsuyori Shibata vs Shane Taylor Promotions' Shane Taylor & Lee Moriarty

https://twitter.com/AEW/status/1781069510184694136

Trent Beretta vs Matt Sydal

Beretta turned on his Best Friends, and now he plans to show off his new attitude as he goes one on one with Matt Sydal.


Also, the EVPs of AEW, The Young Bucks have promised some surprises for tonight! New signings? Returning heroes? Or just more Young Bucks shenanigans?



*Honestly surprised Tony hasn't trademarked "AEWsome!" Hire me Tony!
**I debating between Triller and Youtube
***I'm of course referencing his run as the German Wrestling Association Heavyweight Champion
****[insert "Bryan Danielson: Cody Rhodes Taught Me to Lie" Tweet here]
*****RIP Gorilla Monsoon
******You're spoiling up Tony!
*******You think he asked them where Bobby Fish was at?
********example: Santana is now in TNA, and Jake Hager is still Jake Hager
*********Who could have possibly seen that coming?

I'm still not sure if I'm buying it or not. It doesn't feel like a really great card but it's AEW and they tend to do at least a good job of putting on a show. Usually a great one.

I was going to say I see it, the card is missing some stuff to pull you in if you have not been watching. But then I reread it and drat no Osprey vs Danielson, Swerve vs Joe, and Okada vs PAC carries it. I don't see it

To be fair, it is a pretty weak card if you don't care about Kazuchika Okada, PAC, Will Ospreay, Bryan Danielson, Toni Storm, Thunder Rosa, Julia Hart, Willow Nightingale, Roderick Strong, Kyle O'Reilly, Adam Copeland, Eddie Kingston, Mark Briscoe, Malakai Black, Buddy Matthews, Brody King, Samoa Joe, Swerve Strickland, the Young Bucks, FTR, HOOK, and Chris Jericho.

:darksouls:
tbf as someone who catches like half of every other dynamite/collision, i don't really care about Hook/Jericho, Willow/Julia, Toni/Rosa, or the trios and expect them to be whatever matches. Bucks/FTR i don't give a poo poo about the angle but at least should be a pretty good match unless there's a catastrophic botch

really i'd say three match show with Joe/Swerve, Danielson/Ospreay, and Okada/PAC. I would say Joe/Swerve isn't gonna live up to the other two but Joe's pulled out some really good stuff on this singles run so I'm willing to be surprised. I guess I want Swerve to win even if it feels like it'd be a weirdly underwhelming win. maybe they'd turn him back heel to get more juice out of the title run than they got out of the chase

I'm pretty much here. I watch the weeklies but 3 match show is such a hard sell to me for a freaking $50 price point :smith: especially when it's gonna turn into a monthly thing. Especially the hook/jericho thing. I really, really am not sold on that at all.

On the other hand, I wanna see Swerve stomp Joe's rear end.

I know this same story but I remember the original story was "well Ted, I'm in the wrestling business" and then after the name change and revisionist history it got changed to "entertainment business"

I know this in my heart to be true because even as a kid, every time that interaction is used in every WCW/Monday night wars dvd, I always go "no, it's wrestling business not entertainment. gently caress the wwe :mad:"

Anyway, I'm ready for a good pape time tonight :dance:
