AEW No Guts No Gory

[Emperor Smeat]

That Darby Allin vs Kip Sabian match they announced might be the one they taped after Dynamite last week.

[ClockShot]

Totally need this right now.

[Triple A]

Let's do it

[rez]

Social distance, guys!

[Triple A]

Hmm, no wrestlers in the crowd it seems

[Emperor Smeat]

:lol: Spears setting up another illegal gambling ring.

[ClockShot]

No roster crowd?

Awwwwwwwwww.

[ClockShot]

They still holed up at Daily's Place?

[slik]

Jimmy Havoc looks in better shape

[rez]

They still holed up at Daily's Place?

Yeah

Surreal that Wrestlemania is probably being taped right now...

[slik]

Sad @ no wrestlers in the crowd but they have to follow the no more than 10 at a time rule

[Triple A]

Damn... guys in the crowd makes so much difference... Not really "feeling" this...

But I'm guessing they had more limits on the amount of people near each other at once this week

[Triple A]

Glad Jimmy Havoc shaved the sides and back of his head shorter to better hide his bald spot... Much better...

[ClockShot]

:lol:

Their jackets are still on the ground.

Anybody could easily pull a BUSHI and just use their shirt tonight to just choke someone out.

[Emperor Smeat]

They still holed up at Daily's Place?

Yeah seems this week they are holding it outside of the venue.

[rez]

Damn... guys in the crowd makes so much difference... Not really "feeling" this...

But I'm guessing they had more limits on the amount of people near each other at once this week

Yeah...that def made all the difference but at least we still get a show that isn't 3/4 past ppv filler.

Also, the backstage segments and superior color commentary are helping.

[Triple A]

Yeah seems this week they are holding it outside of the venue.

Is it really? It's already an open air arena so can't tell

[ClockShot]

I know NFL shut down all facilities.

But I wonder if Shad would let Tony use the indoor field at the Jags' training facility if they need to go indoors.

[ClockShot]

That was one ugly Crossrhodes.

[Evil Vito]

No JR or Tazz and no wrestlers at ringside this week. As more and more states lockdown, it stands to reason that most of the roster can’t or won’t travel. A lot of people on tonight’s show either live in Florida or neighboring states. Plus parts of Florida are going under a two week lockdown starting tomorrow and I’d assume Jacksonville isn’t far off.

This is probably the last Dynamite for a while.

[slik]

I think you are right Vito

I also think WWE will have to air reruns/old matches too after WM for a bit.

[Emperor Smeat]

Cody vs. Havoc was decent to good. Feel they should leave the split-screen stuff during matches so at least there can be a fake crowd around if nobody is going to be at ringside.


Is it really? It's already an open air arena so can't tell

Thought at first they were holding it outside because of how breezy it was and the side shots but then saw the roof during the match.

Wonder if they put the ring in a different location since they were not getting this much audio distortion with last week's show. Then again maybe the weather wasn't that breezy last week.

[Droford]

Jake Robert's from the set of Peanut Butter Falcon 2

[slik]

Darby vignettes always good

[ClockShot]

:lol:

Ooops. Little late on the commercial break.

[Droford]

Well that was silly

[Emperor Smeat]

:lol: at the abrupt cut to commercial.

[rez]

Interesting that JR was calling Stinger Splash last week and now they're comparing Darby to Sting.

I also read the sheets where Arn gave details how Vince told commentary to bury Sting in his WWE run..He would have had first hand knowledge.

[rez]

Obviously the Rhodes family has the utmost respect for The Stinger and vice versa. It'd be nice if he could come in and do a manage role. Just no Hogan or Bischoff please.

[Evil Vito]

Penelope Ford v sexy

[ClockShot]

Sweet pin, Darby.

[ClockShot]

That was very nice closeup of Penny Ford.

Where did she and Joey go wrong?

[rez]

Cornette must have told her to distance herself from that loser! tic

[Emperor Smeat]

Kip vs Allin was decent but also a good example of why not having a crowd around just deflates the excitement.

Tag and mulit-man matches can get around that problem better than singles matches.

[ClockShot]

Thanks for coming, Chico.

[Evil Vito]

Whoa, was not expecting Mox to be there.

[ClockShot]

Whoa. Moxley made it?

Figured he was home in Vegas with Renee.

[slik]

Thankful Hager match was short

[Droford]

Not really interested in Hager vs Mox feud

[Emperor Smeat]

How long has TNT been airing these Snowpiercer series trailers?

Feels like at least since Dynamite debuted back in October.

[rez]

Not really interested in Hager vs Mox feud

Make up your mind...you're wanting people to be back to work, aren't you? It's not a Blood and Guts story line match so much.

[Droford]

Brodie looks weird in suit and tie

[Emperor Smeat]

Brodie Lee's AEW career is only a week old and he's already living the high life compared to his time with the Wyatt Family.

[ClockShot]

:rofl:

[Evil Vito]

Holy crap, they’re making Brodie Lee a parody of Vince.

[Triple A]

I've heard about the "Vince hates people sneezing" thing but is the "don't eat until I finish" thing also a Vince story...?

[Droford]

I hope Tony's "the exalted one is here" isn't the new "its boss time"

[Emperor Smeat]

Lee's new gear looks way better than what he wore for his AEW debut.

[Evil Vito]

I've heard about the "Vince hates people sneezing" thing but is the "don't eat until I finish" thing also a Vince story...?

He doesn’t like anyone eating in meetings, even if he does it himself.

[Evil Vito]

They need to get the dinosaur skull on the wall for the next skit

[slik]

Much better gear this week for Brodie Lee

[xrodmuc316]

Holy crap, they’re making Brodie Lee a parody of Vince.

Annoying, all these months later and they still can't help themselves smh.

They need to stop with the wink wink stupid WWE stuff.

[Droford]

Holy crap, they’re making Brodie Lee a parody of Vince.

Needs the McMahon strut to the ring for his entrance

[ClockShot]

Still using that Discus Lariat.

[Droford]

Lee's new gear looks way better than what he wore for his AEW debut.

I got Jay White vibes from that

[Evil Vito]

“Kevin Nash” and “agility” should never be used in the same sentence, Cody.

[Emperor Smeat]

I've heard about the "Vince hates people sneezing" thing but is the "don't eat until I finish" thing also a Vince story...?

Not a particular story but seems Vince is the type who gets pretty cranky whenever he has to work on an empty stomach.

Eating Is Key

Backstage at shows, many wrestlers like to speak with Vince McMahon about their positions within the company. They always want to push him for different creative ideas, but there is one time when speaking to him isn't a good idea.

That time is when he is eating. Countless different wrestlers have told stories of how they know to avoid Vince until he has had a meal because they know that he won't be in his best mood.

This is because food is crucial for his success. He needs to be in great spirits, and food fuels that. While it might seem like a strange thing for his success, it is incredibly important.

[slik]

Brodie Lee staring at the camera menacingly was a good touch

[rez]

damnit, Cody.... please no Kevin Nash

[rez]

This should have been a squash match..

[slik]

Randomly imagined a Michael Cole/Cody Rhodes commentary team and instantly went to 'a dark place' in my head...

(I don't mind Cody/Tony so far)

[ClockShot]

Damn those are some hot EMTs.

[Droford]

Vanguard 1 v 2.0

[slik]

Vanguard 1 is a creeper

[Emperor Smeat]

:lol: at the Inner Circle support for Sammy in the crowd.

[rez]

Vanguard 1 is a creeper

he's just trying to keep social distance

[Droford]

Main event with 45 min to go..hmm

[Emperor Smeat]

Main event already?

Going to be a really long match if that's the case.

[Evil Vito]

Main event with 45 min to go..hmm

Still have a Jericho/Matt faceoff

[slik]

This should be a good match

[Triple A]

Cody's mic sounds so loud... and making gross noises into the mic...

[Emperor Smeat]

:lol: Sammy

Brandi's reaction was gold.

[Emperor Smeat]

Doing split-screen for this Mega title match already making it more lively than every other match tonight besides Cody vs. Havoc

[Emperor Smeat]

Omega vs. Sammy was very good overall.

[slik]

Sammy vs Kenny was good.

[Emperor Smeat]

:lol: at the cameraman singing the Judas theme

[Droford]

Lol

[Triple A]

lol love Jericho so much

[Triple A]

lol...

[Emperor Smeat]

Matt Hardy teleporting around the place was pretty cool.

[Triple A]

Worried about this Matt Hardy stuff...

[Damian Rey 2.0]

That teleporting stuff was a little goofy for me

[Triple A]

Matt Hardy shit is not good... very bad...

[Triple A]

Kenny Omega breathing loudly into the mic............ not liking this

[slik]

oh no, sort of corny so far...

[Triple A]

AEW's promos are good because they seem non-scripted... this is so bad...

[Triple A]

Hope some1 "puts the kibosh on this" in the future........

[Droford]

Hole of the ass

Lol

[Emperor Smeat]

Not sure if Matt is a really good actor or his last run in WWE broke him mentally and he's legit crazy now.

[Droford]

Lay off the drugs
A message from your friends at AEW

[Damian Rey 2.0]

This Matt Hardy stuff is bad. It's corny, goofy, unfunny and hokey as fuck. I'm not digging it. Jericho is trying his damndest to save this but it ain't good.

I would've preferred theysaved the Archer stuff for the end. Far more intriguing.

But OMFG Tony with "WE'RE OUTTA TIME!"

[rez]

Matt Hardy teleporting around the place was pretty cool.

Wasn't a fan..at least it looked like paint shop

[Triple A]

I do not like it at all....... damn... hopefully is kept at a minimum in the future and they don't have him talk for 10 mins

[rez]

it shouldn't have.. anywho

[slik]

At first I didn't like that but Jericho made it work

Jericho and Sammy G the MVPs of Dynamite tonight

[Sepholio]

LOL I thought everyone wanted Broken Matt back? I mean...this is what it always was lol It's also excellent because of how bad and campy it is. That's the point lol It's like those shitty camp horror movies that are so bad you laugh and end up enjoying the experience anyways, just for a different reason.

Oh..I was a fan. I just didn't want to get labeled as some person jacking off to the AEW product.

[slik]

Twitter must be messed up tonight....AEW went from not trending all night to being the top trend all of a sudden


https://i.postimg.cc/L5ynDLvM/Screenshot-2020-03-25-at-8-55-53-PM.png

[Emperor Smeat]

Jericho and Hardy's segment was pretty good overall.

If there ever was a match or segment that personified the time South Park had an episode parodying wrestling, that would have been it.

This week's episode was decent to good considering the circumstances but last week's episode was way better. Tonight only got really good during the later half.

[Evil Vito]

I don’t think the Matt stuff will be lengthy in-ring promos under normal circumstances. It’ll be skits shot at the Hardy Compound that dive into his character more and people who liked the character would dig it.

[Droford]

AEW gonna spank NXT again..

Tahuti Miles is no Chico

[Damian Rey 2.0]

I never liked this schtick, honestly.

[slik]

Judging from reddit the Matt Hardy stuff appears to be a hit.

[Triple A]

Wonder what Dave Meltzer and Bryan Alvarez will think of the Matt Hardy stuff... seems like it could go either way... feel like AEW "listens to them" a lot and makes adjustments based on things they say on their show due to a lot of the "higher ups" being big Meltzer fans...

[slik]

if Penelope Ford/Kip Sabian made a sex tape would u watch it?

[Emperor Smeat]

I never liked this schtick, honestly.

Its very hit-or-miss depending on how much you enjoy campy style acting in wrestling.

I ended up enjoying his Broken gimmick in Impact because they knew how it handle it properly while I didn't find his Woken stuff to be as enjoyable because WWE didn't really understand the gimmick or why it worked in the first place.

[Evil Vito]

if Penelope Ford/Kip Sabian made a sex tape would u watch it?

Yes because it means seeing Penelope Ford naked

Can't wait for Cornette to see it. He was putting over Matt pretty good but he's gonna hate this stuff.

[teamXtremist]

The interaction between matt and jericho was fine,but his teleporting looked fake af on tv

[Damian Rey 2.0]

The Damascus stuff, I'm this many years old stuff, was meh. I thought once he started challenging Jericho on not believing cuz he can't see, that it was fine. They should stick with that.

[xrodmuc316]

The Broken stuff has always been FAR better out of the arena.

The Elite/Delete back and forth yelling was a classic WWE skit.

[Triple A]

They seemed to mostly not like it, also said that they understood that it's an either love it or hate it type of thing...

Alvarez said that the teleporting thing was way too wacky... It's one thing if Hardy is just a crazy guy but to have him teleport and have supernatural powers... Compared it to Kris Statlander who thinks she's an alien, but they don't pretend like she's really an alien

Meltzer said he wasn't sure if it fits with what AEW is trying to do, but time will tell

[teamXtremist]

I thought when matt said he knew judas was pretty funny

First thing I thought of when I saw this title.

[Jordan]

I had some big laughs during the segment, the teleportation was great since they had the empty arena. "You truly are the hole of the ass" got me LOLing for sure. There is some stupid shit that comes with the Hardy gimmick but I'd say this segment overall was a success. Plus he described the Demascus gimmick thoughly so we know what's actually going on. My girlfriend has no exposure to Broken Matt and by the end she thought it was good. But she was mostly like "wtf".

[Jordan]

Also Im finding that some matches are really great with no crowd.

So much this. I've watched AEW since they had their TV deal and its pretty damn good. There are some flaws, sure, but god damn, they are far and away better TV than anything WWE in recent history.

[slik]

welcome back drave!

[drave]

whats up slik?

[slik]

not much, I'm also enjoying AEW...sort of 'burnt out' on wwe right now.

[Damian Rey 2.0]

Listening to Cornette have a meltdown about the end segment of Dynamite. He's insulting Tony Khan, saying current wrestlers aren't real men and blowing up about Matt and his hokey broken Matt schtick. He's furious lmao. I don't think this'll kill any of the characters like he says it will. But it was bad. Despite Jericho's best efforts.

[slik]

I knew Cornette would need medical attention after it lol.

I hope AEW keeps stressing Jim out.

[Damian Rey 2.0]

I think the broken Matt stuff can work, but they need to acknowledge he's crazy and off his rocker and quit with the teleporting and other goofy shit.

[drave]

not much, I'm also enjoying AEW...sort of 'burnt out' on wwe right now.




Same. I couldn't honestly tell you last time I watched it. Keep a sub and pay for it for my mother-in-law, who is still very much in kayfabe-ville.


She doesn't do/have much, and WWE is the highlight of her week. Only downside is pretending to be interested when she calls to talk. :|

[erickman]

I think the broken Matt stuff can work, but they need to acknowledge he's crazy and off his rocker and quit with the teleporting and other goofy shit.

i saw how wwe did both taker and kane with that magic undead crap, hardy is doing the same thing including controling the pyro.

i am ready for hardy and rosemary to work togather again in the undead relm.

[Damian Rey 2.0]

The difference is Undertaker is a once in a lifetime gimmick that wasn't that hokey with the magic stuff when it started, and again, is a once in a lifetime character. Can't compare that to Matt Hardy, even tho I do like Matt.

[Mr. Nerfect]

I can't believe AEW actually did the Broken stuff and had Matt Hardy teleport. Hahaha! Alternative my ass.
