Wrestling

[Devil-Dick Willie]

Final night of G1 block competition. Been a good tournament. 
Jonah (used to be Bronson Reed in NJPW) has been brilliant in ring. His win over Okada was a fantastic match.
Tom Lawlor is a great ex UFC wrestler tied down with a shit gimmick.

To be fair aew doesnt normally have that much blood in one episode. Personally I like hardcore wrestling but can understand how some people might not.

I was quite surprised by the quick face turn of the bucks. Normally aew tends to do it more slowly. They were getting good reactions from the crowd so probably was the right time. 

Pac defends the all Atlantic championship a lot in rev pro. Might go watch a show

Kenny omega is back. Will be interesting to see what he can do as a face(if they keep him as a face) His original face run wasn't that great but hopefully this one will be better

Either everything is falling apart behind the curtain in AEW or they're just going worked shoot crazy.

I think Drew is going to be the man to finally take the titles off Roman. Not sure if the circumstances but given the location of the event I wouldn’t be surprised at all to see it happen.

I think it's the latter.

Tournaments, announcements,  signings, themed shows, factions, managers... they overdo everything to the point where nothing has an impact anymore.

Tony Khan has wasted the greatest opportunity to influence the Wrestling world in the last 25 years because he's incapable of delegating tasks to people that know what they're doing.

I've got tickets so I hope so. 

I was really on board with Roman at first but since that lame WrestleMania match and him going part time he feels like a budget Aquaman.

My head thinks that Dwayne's calendar is free for WrestleMania though and him vs Roman will be the money match.

[JoshBRFC+]

A budget Aquaman hahahahaha brilliant.

Do you think that will finally happen? Rock v Reigns? Rock to win the rumble, maybe? But saying that I kinda feel a Cody return to win the rumble is on the cards.

I don’t see the point in the Rock coming back to put Reigns over, he doesn’t need it ffs. I used to like him tbh when everyone else hated him, but I feel this run has gone on for too long now.

I think it's part of a cm punk heel turn. When you look at it you have moxley, punk, danielson, omega and Page. That is to many top faces. Punk will probably turn heel I think

There's also the stuff about Eddie Kingston apparently punching Sammy Guevara because he didn't like Sammy mentioning his weight, and also some stuff involving Thunder Rosa and Baker/Hayter.

Conveniently they're all in feuds with each other already...

I think Roman beating Rock was Vince's last big idea but Cody isn't a bad plan B given how super Vince made him look.

And MJF. I didn't know about the other ones. Maybe they are just trying to create that image that although its scripted the rivalries are real. Some people like to think thats true. Most people would know better but it might please a couple of naive people.

Toni Storm is attractive and I would hold her hand, if you know what I mean.

[6666]

CM Punk wanting to burn down "The Elite" is the best thing that has happened involving AEW. Work or not.

[OrangeKhrush]

I saw edge is back, that's a throwback

How epic is this

You may have randomly seen me at some point as despite not watching WWE for some time, I had tickets for it (that and the Deadman show the night before).

What did you think of it?

The crowd went nuts when Edge came out as you showed above.

It was great. Wasn't a big fan of the ending but other than that good fun.

Yeah, thought the ending was shit as I'm not a big fan of Reigns at all, but thought the matches were good overall.

That was my view. We were meant to be higher but the section we were meant to be in got closed off.

Ah nice. Pretty close. I was up in the heavens unfortunately.

 

[JoshBRFC+]

Both good views fellas! I bet it was a great event to be part of. UK fans are the best in the world.

Probably because it comes so infrequently that everyone gets super hyped. If you had 200+ shows a year you'd be less pumped.

Boxing…. Time and time again we prove we have the best fans. And combat sports athletes know that.

The online wars between Punk fans and Elite fans are incredible. The indy gang actually think Punk should be fired because... he was assaulted by 3 men in his locker room?
