Joining late? Sort by newest to keep up!
One of the reasons I love AEW is that they introduce me to all these awesome lucha’s I wouldn’t know about if they didn’t exist. Gravity’s great. And so is the wrestler.
That was Lucha Underground for me. LU got me watching AAA.
I haven’t seen LU…but I feel like I need to. All I’ve ever heard is good things.
I highly recommend it!
That was the great thing about Nitro hour 1 back in the day!
Long focus on “Book the women’s division better” sign.
Hahaha, I mean I agree but probably shouldn’t advertise it.
The camera man agreed lol
I love when I get to witness the birth of a meme. Looking forward to seeing that on Promo Joe and Botch.
Here’s AR Fox vs Swerve (Killshot) in Lucha Underground that I feel obligated to post
Thanks for this. I’ll check it out later.
Sacrificing Wheeler Yuta is always fun!
AR Fox teaming up with Swerve is always a good time
MJF is so damn good. I don’t see many people say it: he’s got some serious skills as a writer. That promo is a good example of that.
MJF is always good TV.
Poor Roddy getting boundaried. He’s just trying to lookout for his friend man
Poor lad got called a default CAW! Absolutely brutal
Terrible mental health days this week but Dynamite helps so much. I’m so proud of Orange Cassidy for making it big and landing a bigger role in AEW <3
I wasn’t sure about him at first but now OC’s one of my favourites. And I hope everything’s okay. If OC doesn’t help, a healthy dose of MJF and Adam Cole should do the trick :p
WTF!
Darby is INSANE
Dax is big mad about MJF’s impression of him lol
I was surprised he could even cut a promo what with Punk’s jockstrap still in his mouth.
He should make a podcast about it
Wow didn’t see that coming,an AR Fox heel turn especially after that whole feel-good segment.
Yeah, nice little swerve there.
I found this week’s to be a bit of a step below the last stretch. They’ve been on a real hot streak though lately so a down week one of these days was sure to come. With all of The Elite getting the week off though and them holding significant MJF/Cole developments for Saturday this was bound to happen. The in-ring action was really good though, as always. Swerve/Darby is such a good pairing that you can never complain about a Wednesday when you get to see them do what they do.
That sign about the Women’s division says it all though regarding them. I can’t help but wonder what the root cause here is, is it a WBD thing by any chance or just a Tony thing? You’ve heard scattered reports over the years about how WBD does have an influence on who gets screentime and whatnot and in ROH you’re seeing a much better booked women’s division. I can’t help but wonder if it’s a WBD directive to limit their minutes due to historically lower ratings for their segments and to focus primarily on the marketable women like Britt/Jade/etc which is hurting the division at large.
I think you’re right: WBD has a lot to do with the women’s match time. I remember a “report” saying something similar a few months back. I hate to say it, but it also doesn’t help that many of the wrestlers they feature are pretty green.
As for the episode: it wasn’t the best Dynamite…especially coming off Blood and Guts. And It doesn’t help that the two most anticipated matches of the week are both happening on Collision (Tag and Ladder match). I was watching Dynamite but looking past it at the same time, if that makes sense.
Completely agree with you. Very MEH episode. I kept thinking that although not every episode can be great, if I’d paid to go see this show, I would’ve felt let down.
I love OC. But AR winning and going on a short run could be fun.
Yeah AR is a great worker but with the prestige OC built I want it going to Jay or Starks but maybe it’s a Dynamite only title now.
I would love to see them win it, too. I’d just like to see a shorter title reign or two, just to mix it up a bit. And I think Fox could be a fun candidate for that kinda thing.
Jack Perry more like Jerk Perry
Black/Orange.
I beat Hook shirt.
Dragging the belt.
What a douchebag. Christian taught him well
Absolutely. He’s almost getting Callis heat right now.
Pacs chaotic music and him faking a turnbuckle pose always pops me
Being a Taya Valkyrie fan is suffering
100%. I really wanted her to beat Britt. She deserves the push.
