mostly good episode. had fun with it. here's every thought i had
- like the new graphics and stage layout, not a fan of the new theme song
- don't mind swerve doing a face turn by being like "damn i guess i gotta repent for all that shit i did" but i still think it'd be better if they just never mentioned any of it
- swerve is good on the mic but he still kinda slips up and doesn't quite have the pacing in a promo that i'd want. but when he gets going he's pretty good
- samoa joe is too fucking cool. that's all i have to say
- fire adam cole. disband this stupid faction
- i know i shouldn't just immediately hate this but i can't help but roll my eyes at Can They Coexist stories
- swerve is so fucking over holy shit
- oh wow that was the finish huh? okay. like the story they're going for but that felt sudden. not that i mind undisputed kingdom getting fucking jobbed out like nobodies
- LMFAO that bucks segment announcing two announcements. they're so good as heels! why do they keep trying to be babyfaces?
- hook/cage was fine. whatever
- AEW does thumbtacks way too often. i love thumbtacks but you can't be bringing that bag out every month. i feel so desensitized to it
- hook has fallen victim to chris jericho wanting to work with him. see you again in 6 months, man
- renee 🙂
- christian cage 🙂
- killswitch.
- DADDY MAGIC!!!
- loved daddy magic in that match. surprised at how much he got in
- hell yess danny garcia saving his boy!!!!!! fuck i actually love daniel garcia so much lmao
- figured they were building to toronto. i quit match sounds fun. still not into copeland
- love that they're consistently building to big matches on dynamite though! got me looking forward to the next two weeks of dynamite at least, and i was looking forward to this show as well
- LMAO the commentators all laughing while their mics were still on
- is KOR's gimmick "guy who wears dirty shirts" now?
- hahahahah the bucks taking credit for retiring sting and saying they cheated. these characters are so fucking good
- okada!!! AND HE'S EVIL!!!!!!
- interesting choice to bring in Okada as a heel. can they get people to boo him? i guess him hitting eddie with the rainmaker is a good start
- oh my fuxking god wait. eddie v okada????? EDDIE VS OKADA? i don't even know okada that well please excuse my not-caring-about-njpw but HELLLLLLLLL YES
- i love kris statlander i love riho this match is fun love the dynamic of riho small statlander huge
- love all the deadlifting maneuvers kris can do with riho
- stat working kinda heelish here i feel... is the story with her and willow that she's gonna go heel and side with stoke or something?
- i guess not
- riho is SO FUCKING SICK
- oh wow riho got that!! helllll yes. fun match!
- i'm not sure i get why they keep doing the fake out with Old Toni Storm when mariah may got a bigger pop dressed like that than toni did as timeless toni
- and also like it'd have been such a cool surprise for her to come out as old toni when the story resolved around her and deonna bring old friends
- i love the acclaimed and i love the bang bang gang but i do not love the bang bang scissor gang
- actually i take back that i love the acclaimed. i don't feel like they ever recovered from feeling really corny during the DAMMIT MAX era
- FIRE JAY LETHAL i was so into mark briscoe's promo until that point. he sucks!!! i hate him!!!! he's not fun to watch!!! he sounds like shit on promos!!!! WHAT IS HE HERE FOR
- i am amazed by how instantly into ospreay i've been. he's just fucking unreal
- kyle fletcher has done nothing but impress me every time he's in the ring too. god damn
- ospreay has an incredible understanding of how to get the crowd worked up. it goes beyond just flashy moves, his timing on everything is impeccable. he knows exactly how long to stay down after big moves and when to pop right back up
- but also god damn is he good at the flashy shit. incredibly creative counters from both guys in this match
- i would really like to see this match again!
- lmaooo bryan can't stop smiling. he wants to wrestle him so bad
good show! started out feeling a bit rocky but i feel like they pulled it together in the second hour. very excited for the coming weeks of AEW
