[slik]

It really is a new era, no more 'The Accountant' to lead into Dynamite, now it's The Big Bang Theory.

[slik]

hell yeah at Hangman/Bryan opening the show

[Evil Vito]

Let’s goooo

[ron the dial]

hell yeah let's go tbs title

[Jordan]

HERE WEEEE GO!

[Triple A]

hmm first match again

[weather vane]

I’m having deja vu!

[Jordan]

Oh please note that I have predicted Danielson new champ via decision.

[weather vane]

Hangman wins 100% yeah?

[weather vane]

Forgot about judges. Maybe DB by decision I guess.

[slik]

WCW Saturday Night was my favorite wrestling show for a while growing up so it's really nostalgic to be watching a wrestling show on TBS again.

[ron the dial]

what do y'all think? this go like 30? 40? 25? or do they tickle the taint of a broadway? go all the way again and get those judges involved?

[ron the dial]

hell yeah jerry lynn

[Evil Vito]

Jerry Lynn votes for Hangman

Bryan vs Jerry Lynn

[Triple A]

Newark crowd is good

[ron the dial]

absolutely love hangman's gear

[Jordan]

what do y'all think? this go like 30? 40? 25? or do they tickle the taint of a broadway? go all the way again and get those judges involved?

There are only four matches announced for the show that I am aware of. So....

[Sepholio]

omg they are gonna do another draw aren't they? Just seeing that panel out there to make a decision makes me want to change the channel.

[Triple A]

They are going at least 40 based on the pace so far

[Evil Vito]

I could see it going like 55 minutes

If the judges were actually going to factor into the decision, I think they’d have brought a couple of different legends in for the pop

[Triple A]

omg they are gonna do another draw aren't they? Just seeing that panel out there to make a decision makes me want to change the channel.

yeah I wonder how it will do in the ratings this time... could see people "tuning out" and coming back later if they assume it's gonna be a long ass match again

[ron the dial]

hangman's gonna win with the buckshot

[Jordan]

I hope they do something to make a battle of the belts feel important because I think as of now it will flop. Also hoping that there is additional live content before or after on YouTube.

[weather vane]

Hangman busted.

[xrodmuc316]

Every Go Big Show commercial is just more fuel for Cody's heel fire.

[slik]

crowd is hot

[slik]

I hope it goes to 59 minutes and then Gail Kim runs out and lowblows Hangman and aligns herself with Bryan Danielson

[ron the dial]

sick dvd

[Jordan]

Will be curious about if TBS attempts to censor AEW'S bloody matches.

[Sepholio]

Hangmans forehead gonna look like he started rasslin in the 80's one of these days.

[Jordan]

I want to see Brianson bleed

[ron the dial]

about to happen

[ron the dial]

lol bloody jumping jacks

[Jordan]

We got double blood! Suck it Roman suck it Noid eat it Xrod!

[Sepholio]

fuck bryan is bleeding bad

[Triple A]

2 much blood 😩

[Jordan]

Wouldn't you guys fucking lose your minds of we go like 56 minutes and from our of nowhere a man in a long black coat comes through the crowd, back to the camera with a hard wooden guitar in hand and crashes it over Hangman's bloody head!

AIN'T I GREAT?

A new era, Khan and The Jarretts!

[Jordan]

Danielson is cut deep!

[Triple A]

top rope fallaway slam moonsault thing is fucked... scary...

[weather vane]

I’d love it. JJ.

[Jordan]

That dead eye sucked, that move sucks.

[Sepholio]

2 much blood ��

seriously. It feels like almost every match lately. I've criticized WWE for not showing enough blood but AEW is doing the exact opposite and leaning WAY too much into it.

[slik]

this is great

[weather vane]

That dead eye sucked, that move sucks.

LOVEEEEEEEEE THE DEAD EYE

[Jordan]

Absolutely perfect moonsault to the outside

[Triple A]

crowd is sick

[Jordan]

Yeah I'm glad I didn't go though I just don't wanna go to Newark. Plus COVID is bad and a great excuse to not "do things".

[Triple A]

Don't like Bryan doing/taking so many headbutts!

[Jordan]

Danielson is fucking amazing

[Jordan]

This is basically as good as A Danielson and Okada match would be I think. I mean it's pretty damn close.

[Triple A]

the major downside of doing this match to open the show is that it's gonna kill every other match that follows it, just like last time...

[xrodmuc316]

Who did Jerry Lynn piss off to have to sit in between Big Show and Mark Henry for an hour?? :rofl:

[Jordan]

the major downside of doing this match to open the show is that it's gonna kill every other match that follows it, just like last time...

Yeah but Jericho is back!

[RP]

I want The Bunny to make poop pellets in my mouth.

[Jordan]

Who did Jerry Lynn piss off to have to sit in between Big Show and Mark Henry for an hour?? :rofl:

3 of the greatest ECW Champions of all time

[Sepholio]

the major downside of doing this match to open the show is that it's gonna kill every other match that follows it, just like last time...

Yep. Never get the main event opening. I've always been of the mindset that you save the big draw match for last to keep people tuned in and invested in the show. You put the thing I want to see on first and I'm more likely to turn it off after.

[weather vane]

Great match. Right decision.

[Triple A]

nice

[Evil Vito]

Cowboy shit!

[ron the dial]

You know that's right

[Jordan]

Holy shit, what a fucking clean win!

[Evil Vito]

That was great stuff

[Sepholio]

Thank God they did a proper finish.

Kinda thought Bryan would go over though tbh. Dunno why, just a feeling I had.

[Jordan]

I think I preferred this one to the first, but they are both spectacular. Maybe the first was better... Idk, they were both awesome.

[Sepholio]

Good match though.

[Triple A]

Yep. Never get the main event opening. I've always been of the mindset that you save the big draw match for last to keep people tuned in and invested in the show. You put the thing I want to see on first and I'm more likely to turn it off after.

Yeah, but now that I know that the plan was for it to be 30 mins, makes sense why it was on first, or else they would have had to put it on at 9 PM if they wanted it to be "believable" that it could go to the judges

[Sepholio]

I think I preferred this one to the first, but they are both spectacular. Maybe the first was better... Idk, they were both awesome.

I think the first match was better but the finish of the second one was a far better result. You make that the finish of the first match with like a minute left and it would have been perfect.

[Evil Vito]

Goddamn Bryan I know you haven’t been able to blade in like a decade, you didn’t have to make up for it all at once

[Jordan]

Goddamn that is talent! Can't believe he was on fire!

[slik]

Great match with the right result

[ron the dial]

lol i love how often they call people scumbags

[Sepholio]

Boomer Sting vs Millennial Taker only

[ron the dial]

the motherf*ckin captain baby

[Jordan]

I HATE Captain Sean Sean

[Triple A]

lol first DQ finish in AEW history?

[Jordan]

HAHAHA YES! CM Punk really fucked MJF that little BITCH

[Evil Vito]

Hahahaha I’ve been waiting for someone to actually manipulate the rankings and stats like this.

[ron the dial]

this is great

[slik]

Boomer Sting vs Millennial Taker only

hell yeah

[Jordan]

Hahahaha I’ve been waiting for someone to actually manipulate the rankings and stats like this.

Well I don't remember seeing you say that so I can't quite say I believe you.

[weather vane]

MJF is so good.

[ron the dial]

MJF with some bad spray tan hands

[Jordan]

MJF is a real sorry SOB

[Triple A]

This is a perfect way to follow up the last match

[weather vane]

Punk awesome.

[Jordan]

Punk got OWNED had NO RESPONSE

I was WRONG

[Sepholio]

LOL I love MJF.

[slik]

Vincels about to be undone by that comment

[Evil Vito]

Crowd way into this. Great stuff.

[Jordan]

WARDLOW could kill CM Punk

[Jordan]

Thankfully it isn't Shawn Spears vs Punk

[xrodmuc316]

Wow, another Fed Bad promo. CM Punk really has amazing range...

[ron the dial]

Wow, another Fed Bad promo. CM Punk really has amazing range...
yeah that's true it's the only thing he talked about that entire promo for sure

[xrodmuc316]

yeah that's true it's the only thing he talked about that entire promo for sure

What else did he even say.

"I'll kick your ass or your lackey's asses, and FED BAD!"

[Sepholio]

LE CHAMPION IS IN THE HIZOUSE

[xrodmuc316]

Didnt get a good look at him last week, but Jericho looks a lot better than before his few weeks off.

[Triple A]

Jericho looks like he's wearing a bulletproof vest under his tank top... looking thick

[BigCrippyZ]

I know, it’s not like he was responding to the other guy mentioning the competit…

[Sepholio]

The Just For Men def took a few years off him.

[Jordan]

Jericho's hair getting darker with age!

[xrodmuc316]

"I think he cheated" lol

Heel Jericho is always better, but face Jericho is funny as hell

[ron the dial]

jerkoff 2.0 jackoffs

[Evil Vito]

2.0 are excellent

[Triple A]

lol really like them

[Jordan]

I can't stop looking at Jericho's hairline

[Jordan]

Can you believe Kip Sabian gets paid to wear a box

[slik]

I really like Daniel Garcia and 2.0

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Santana looking real jack’d baby

[weather vane]

Haha Landon.

[ron the dial]

ooooh yeah i like cole vs atlas

[Evil Vito]

Acting like Brandon is filming when he is out with COVID

[Jordan]

I wonder who would win in a match WARDLOW or Roman Reigns

[Triple A]

Dumb ass ref ringing the bell upon seeing him dead on the floor!

[weather vane]

WARDLOW vs God?

[Jordan]

Rich Knox is absolutely corrupt. Probably gets paid off in meth and hydros or vodka and valium.

[weather vane]

Trick question. WARDLOW is God.

[ron the dial]

Trick question. WARDLOW is God.
that's the one

[Jordan]

Honestly those powerbombs didn't really do it for me. Just didn't believe it.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Wardlow gonna have a Vader type incident with all these powerbombs on jobbers

[ron the dial]

i wanted to see that sick ass top rope knee to the face thing

[weather vane]

Dot’s Pretzels really good.

[GD]

That Chris Jericho promo was atrocious.

[slik]

Wardlow appreciation post

[Evil Vito]

Asslander makes me happy in the pantlander

[rez]

way behind. at the Punk/MFJ segment

[ron the dial]

HERE WE GO

[weather vane]

Why did they show a 4 second snippet of Statlander and Leyla Hirsch?

[Jordan]

After that racial Twitter meltdown from TK I think that Ruby stands almost zero chance of winning this.

[ron the dial]

nice custom jacket for the match

[Triple A]

Jade should win... Ruby "not that good" and can afford the loss more. Losing would hurt Jade...

[ron the dial]

After that racial Twitter meltdown from TK I think that Ruby stands almost zero chance of winning this.

jade should have been winning no matter what

[Evil Vito]

Ruby DOES have a flash finisher that could conceivably knock out Jade. But I think Jade will win and they’ll find someone else to hand her her first loss.

[ron the dial]

statlander baby

[slik]

Jade's Storm/X-Men gear is great

Ruby's jacket is good too

[ron the dial]

hell YES give me thunder rosa/mercedes martinez

[GD]

Jade should win... Ruby "not that good" and can afford the loss more. Losing would hurt Jade...

Ruby Riott’s underwhelming…except for her facial expressions.

[Jordan]

Is there truth to the rumors that Nyla Rose is leaving AEW when the contact is up? Please let me know if it's true.

[Triple A]

match not good so far......

[weather vane]

Jade is greeeeeeeeeeen.

[Triple A]

Ruby Riott’s underwhelming…except for her facial expressions.

Don't like her facial expressions ! Especially when she always does the "mouth wide open" "shocked" face when her opponent kicks out

[ron the dial]

ruby soho matches usually only seem to get good in the last 2-3 minutes so far

[weather vane]

“Jade Cargill nude”

[Triple A]

This match should have just been like 4 mins... shouldn't have Jade wrestling long matches yet

[weather vane]

:-\ nm

[GD]

This match is boring.

[weather vane]

This match stinks.

[GD]

Don't like her facial expressions ! Especially when she always does the "mouth wide open" "shocked" face when her opponent kicks out

Yeah…it’s cringey.

[Triple A]

lol damn, Jade is really not very good... "trying her best" but

[weather vane]

Think I just saw her vag. Mint.

[ron the dial]

right outcome, not a good match.

[Evil Vito]

That match was pretty rough around the edges. But Jade winning was the right call.

[Jordan]

AEW breaking the line in racial progress now

[Supreme Olajuwon]

I get why Jade wins but I hope she doesn’t become midcard Britt. Which she kinda already is.

[Loose Cannon]

pretty sure I caught Ruby on the top rope giving the ok to Jade that she was all good to do the finish now lol.

[Triple A]

Serena Deeb and Sami Zayn good Arab representation in wrestling...

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Is it me or are the spray tans tonight insanely dark? Must be a Jersey thing.

[GD]

What the fuck happened to Deeb’s face?

[Loose Cannon]

is Serena Deeb the same girl that was in CM Punks stable? I always get her all confused.

[Evil Vito]

Jade: *starts going to the top rope*

Ruby: “nah it’s ok, I want to live, we good here”

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Oh yeah Mallister Black time. Everybody shush

[slik]

The right choice

https://i.postimg.cc/PqBW29mv/Screenshot-2022-01-05-8-22-35-PM.png

[GD]

Serena Deeb and Sami Zayn good Arab representation in wrestling...

Neither can hold a candle to Mohammad Hassan. It’s a travesty that he quit wrestling to become a full time educator. What a role model.

[Triple A]

damn, Julia Hart not gonna turn evil I guess

[GD]

The right choice

https://i.postimg.cc/PqBW29mv/Screenshot-2022-01-05-8-22-35-PM.png

Belt could’ve done without the blue. Wow!

[ron the dial]

nice ponytail mullet

[Loose Cannon]

so rooting for Pillman in this industry. really want him to succeed

[GD]

That interview segment setup was incredible awkward.

[xrodmuc316]

Neither can hold a candle to Mohammad Hassan. It’s a travesty that he quit wrestling to become a full time educator. What a role model.

That dude was Italian :rofl:

[Triple A]

damn

[slik]

Someone told me something that might happen tonight and now I hope it does...will respond in here if happens 'that was it'...

crowd would LOVE it

[Jordan]

That should be it for Pillman he is good for nothing.

[weather vane]

BRODY KING

[Triple A]

Brody King?

[weather vane]

syke

[Triple A]

alright...

[Loose Cannon]

Magic trick

poor Pillman :(

[weather vane]

I like the teases. It’s coming. I wish PCO would come too.

[slik]

that was odd

[Evil Vito]

Eyepatch Julia just looks annoyed she had to accompany stupid idiot Pillman in his doomed to fail attempt to defend her honor

[xrodmuc316]

So they turned the lights off so they could walk past each other in the dark? Lol

[weather vane]

HOOOOOOOOOK

[Evil Vito]

HOOK

[ron the dial]

shut the f*ck up qt

[GD]

That dude was Italian :rofl:

Sure. And Yokozuna isn't Japanese :roll:

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Hook tha God wrestling against heel jobbers? What

[Evil Vito]

Hook just guarantees that Rampage is appointment television

[slik]

Pillman sort of sucks

[Jordan]

I really don't get this Battle of the Belts show it's basically an episode of Rampage. I wish that they'd just do quarterly two hour episodes of Rampage instead of this one hour show idea.

[weather vane]

HOOK vs WARLOW and I’ll cum on my truck.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Someone told me something that might happen tonight and now I hope it does...will respond in here if happens 'that was it'...

crowd would LOVE it

Please spoil in rep message (positive or negative, dealer’s choice)

[Jordan]

Pillman sort of sucks

He really does. He isn't a great athlete at all in any way and is getting heavy and hasn't grown past the cheese dick Indy fire gimmick. Fuck him, cut him and send him to the minors.

[weather vane]

Why you spoil yourself boy?!

[Evil Vito]

This match being last would point to a title change. But it could also be a Christian heel turn.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

They better not take the belts of Lucha Bros before we get an LAX match

[Evil Vito]

I need to know why the Lucha Bros had to go backstage just to walk right back out again.

[Loose Cannon]

This match being last would point to a title change. But it could also be a Christian heel turn.

I was thinking Christian heel turn. Just feels like one

[slik]

Wish Big Man Paul Wight would chokeslam everyone in this match thru a table to "make a statement"

[Triple A]

This match being last would point to a title change. But it could also be a Christian heel turn.

Marko going to make his return, taking out Christian to a huge pop from the crowd to end the show...

[Jordan]

Rey Fenix is goddamn amazing

[Loose Cannon]

Marko going to make his return, taking out Christian to a huge pop from the crowd to end the show...


ugh that guy

[GD]

Lucha Bros are so fun to watch.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Jungle Boy gonna bump for 80% of this match it seems

[Jordan]

Wish Big Man Paul Wight would chokeslam everyone in this match thru a table to "make a statement"

I've been reading that the AEW creative engine is revving up a big return to the ring for Paul Wight in a feud against the TNT Champion Cody. Paul will try to help Cody face himself and become an actual individual instead of whatever it is that he's become.

[Sepholio]

ffffffffff he just got spiked

[Triple A]

oh shit @ the destroyer spot

[ron the dial]

rey fenix oh boy.....

[Loose Cannon]

yo wtf was that move by Penta. holy shit

[ron the dial]

made in japan so sick

[GD]

oh shit @ the destroyer spot

Petey Williams smiling from above.

[weather vane]

Lights out? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[Loose Cannon]

why did the lights go out lol

[ron the dial]

alex abrahantes is AMPED UP

[rez]

usually the show flows good but not tonight. eh...hope it's not a taste of things to come

[Fenix122]

That arm is broken

[ron the dial]

holy f*ck

[Triple A]

oh fuck @ Fenix's arm... think he just snapped his arm... fuck

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Oh no Rey looks seriously hurt

[Triple A]

god damn man

[ron the dial]

that was a brutal injury jfc

[Fenix122]

Feel so bad for my fellow Fenix....that looked awful

[weather vane]

Wild.

[slik]

OMG at Rey Fenix's arm

That was bad, yikes

[Triple A]

damn, stomach hurts from that injury... jesus

[ron the dial]

oh my god why do they keep showing it

[Loose Cannon]

oh shit i just saw it on the replay. that looked awful

[Supreme Olajuwon]

And they showed the replay of his elbow snapping. Jesus.

[Jordan]

Jesus Christ Rey Fenix broke his arm in half

[GD]

Rey Fenix :(

[Triple A]

ahhhh

[slik]

Does no one in production realize Rey Fenix hurt himself, STOP replaying that

[Triple A]

huge bummer

[Sepholio]

oh my god that injury oh fuck

[Evil Vito]

Good for Jurassic Express

RIP Fenix’ arm :(

[GD]

Why did the lights go out?

[Sepholio]

oh man thats gonna be stuck in my head like sid still is

[Triple A]

god damn, feeling the same as when I saw Sid's leg break injury... stomach hurts

[ron the dial]

Why did the lights go out?

probably a production error since nothing came of it after. or just a really stupidly timed continuation.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

God the show started so good and ended so horribly.

[Evil Vito]

I did love that Rogues Gallery of all the heel teams on the ramp

[Loose Cannon]

O'reilly and Fish just look like they're in another league standing next to everyone else

[Triple A]

Why did the lights go out?

Maybe a tease for Brody King or whoever next week or whenever...

[Blonde Moment]

Well, that explains the win

[Jordan]

god damn, feeling the same as when I saw Sid's leg break injury... stomach hurts

Same dude. So horrible. I feel so bad for the guy.

[Evil Vito]

Horrific injury, fuck

[Sepholio]

ngl I thought Luchasaurus was hurt too on that move, he immediately went to flopping on the ground and screaming holding his arm too and from the initial angle it looked like his arm got hung up in the table or something. Didn't realize Rey was hurt at first til I saw him pointing at his arm.

[Loose Cannon]

god, he just tried to break his fall and his arm was just in no mans land :(

[Triple A]

Yeah he was holding his arm and it looked limp when he got back in the ring at the end also

[Triple A]

god, he just tried to break his fall and his arm was just in no mans land :(

Table was too close to the ring for that spot :-(
