[slik]

crowd seems dead

[Jordan]

Guys just got in WHO? WHO? Who could it be?

[Jordan]

I can't give a shit about Rocky Romero

[Frank Drebin]

Was really excited when they first announced FD but no Punk, Bryan or Okada among others and little to no build has me as lukewarm for an AEW ppv as I would have been for WWE Bragging Rights.

[Frank Drebin]

Sick of Orange Cassidy and he's been out for months.

[Triple A]

Home late but now watching my favourite wrestling show AEW Dynamite

[Triple A]

Aussie Open look like jobbers but they did some cool moves...

[slik]

Home late but now watching my favourite wrestling show AEW Dynamite

welcome home

[slik]

maybe tony made the atlantic title in case wbdiscovery cans dynamite and he would have a replacement for tbs/tnt title

[Triple A]

Lock Jaw should start watching AEW again now that Christian is a mega heel top star

[ClockShot]

Quiet thread.

Just got home. Had dinner. Caught the 6-man tag.

How we all doin'?

[Triple A]

Quiet thread.

Hello

Christian on TV - thread shall remain quiet.

[drave]

Hello




Is it me you're looking for?

[Frank Drebin]

Blue dot

[Frank Drebin]

Lol....7 year old kid chanting STFU

[Triple A]

WWE ass heel turn promo... "You fans turned your back on me"

[erickman]

love a heel cage

[ClockShot]

Yes, Christian.

Social Media is a big cesspool.

[Frank Drebin]

sAVe_uS MJF

[drave]

Blue Dot talks on TV - no one cares.


Now he's doing the "I deserve respect".


God. How has he stuck around so long? Surely just off the royalties he made with Edge. Horrible.

[Jordan]

Sup guys glad most of the regulars are in. I had veggie burger, my gf makes them a lot.

So glad Christian is a bad guy now!

[Frank Drebin]

I haven't heard anything Christian has been saying. Vanilla AF

[Frank Drebin]

I love AEW but it feels like they've been phoning it in since DON.

[Frank Drebin]

Worst promo. Going on and on.

[slik]

@ Triple A

u r lucky u missed Moxley cutting a long promo backstage earlier

[Jordan]

This is a long promo you guys

[xrodmuc316]

So Christian's new gimmick is he is Jeff Jarrett and don't piss him off?

[Frank Drebin]

Going to sleep

[drave]

Christian:


Has matches that make you turn off the TV.




Then Kratos that mutherfucker into the garbage because your TV is now tainted f-f-f-f-f-f-f-f-f-4 lyfe

[Frank Drebin]

Christ this sucks

[ClockShot]

Yep.

Knew that one was coming.

LOL this is great LOL!

[Jordan]

I hope Christian Cage writes some poetry for Jungle Boys dead daddy!

[Frank Drebin]

How long has this segment been? Feels like 20 mins.

[Jordan]

Christian is amazing fuck the world.

[Triple A]

Would have been the perfect time for Marko Stunt to return and take out Christian for a huge pop!

[Frank Drebin]

Fuck not another massive meaningless tag match. God damnit.

[Frank Drebin]

At least Black is here to save the day and make the ppv.

[Triple A]

Would love to see a 30 minute face to face promo between Christian and Kyle O'Reilly opening up Dynamite 1 day

[xrodmuc316]

Malakai vs Miro is the only match I would care about at FD

[Jordan]

Too many multiman matches on Forbidden Door very unsatisfying booking.

Ah man Malakai Black for me is my number one hopeful for a big championship run soon.

[slik]

Luchasaurus the new Tyson Tomko for Christian

[Jordan]

I've been a backer for Malakai ever since I first saw him. The dude is one of a kind all he needs is a major program to get into the main event psyche of the fans.

[Frank Drebin]

I've been a backer for Malakai ever since I first saw him. The dude is one of a kind all he needs is a major program to get into the main event psyche of the fans.

Hes a god damned super villain and they've relegated him to 6 man tags while we wait 18 months for green ass Julia Heart to turn.

[Jordan]

I have a feeling Jonathan Gresham is the replacement for Danielson what do you guys think? I mean realistically who could it be? It does seem to be someone new based on what Danielson said.

[Frank Drebin]

Where's the Acclaimed? I hope Bowens heals up quick.

[Frank Drebin]

I have a feeling Jonathan Gresham is the replacement for Danielson what do you guys think? I mean realistically who could it be? It does seem to be someone new based on what Danielson said.

Claudio

[Jordan]

Claudio

:cool:

[Triple A]

I don't think so based on how he hyped it, would be a huge disappointment

Probably will be Cesaro... not really looking forward to him being in AEW, always found him boring... wasn't watching wrestling when he was apparently really over a few years ago

[ClockShot]

C'mon, Mal. Quit messing around and kick his head off.

[Triple A]

Already so many guys that could/should get featured more instead of having Cesaro come in... no mic skills... not interesting...

[ClockShot]

:yes:

[slik]

would be funny if Wardlow started bullying Justin Roberts 'for no reason'

[slik]

camera cuts to backstage where Wardlow is giving Justin Roberts a swirly

[ClockShot]

THE LAST REAL MAN!

SILAS YOUNG!

I thought Silas Young was The Butcher and he lost a lot of weight

[Triple A]

wrap it up

[Triple A]

NJPW guys seem to have cool music

[Triple A]

Should bring back Marko Stunt as an authority figure and have him demand that Jay White face both guys in a 3 way at the PPV

[Jordan]

Okada came in HOT! Very over, great move to get him on the show. I supposed it's Hangman & Okada vs White & Cole, that will be great.

[Triple A]

Hope it's not a tag match... rather have a title match

[Triple A]

Jay White shouldn't have gone to Impact... they apparently kept just putting him in mid card matches and he seemed to lose a lot... took away a lot of his "aura" as a "top guy" imo

Every women's match has an attack afterwards then a run in for the save... like the only women's angle Tony Khan books

[Frank Drebin]

Andrade Fenix should be sweet.

[Frank Drebin]

2 four way matches. Sure. Whatever it takes to get Okada on that card.

[Frank Drebin]

Are Tanahashi/Moxley, Osprey/Cassidy and Sabre/Claudio the only singles matches at FD?

[Frank Drebin]

Ooofff....3 pages in the go home show to Forbidden Door. Not good.

[Frank Drebin]

Feel like they pulled the trigger as soon as they could on a joint show. Maybe future dates just weren't going to work and if so, so be it but it would have been better for a slow burn to FD. They might have been able to feature more NJPW talent like whoever the fuck Shota Umino is and create some rivalries that made sense rather than a card filled with mostly 90s style Survivor Series multi man tags just to stuff the card with names.

[Frank Drebin]

kip sabian should attack moxley with a spike

Da fuq happened to him and his girl Ford?

Excited to eat strawberry ice cream in a cone after this

[Frank Drebin]

Lame ass Wheeler Yuta

[xrodmuc316]

Why are they suddenly hyping it up like Mox is WCW's hero and he has to win the important interim title over that evil nWo?

[Frank Drebin]

Ugh....this "pre rumble brawl" is what 85% of FD could be. A cluster.

[Frank Drebin]

NO NOT POPCORN

[xrodmuc316]

All Tony knows how to book is debuts and after match donnybrooks.

[Frank Drebin]

Not hyped although I'm glad they got Okada. Might have saved me from trying to dump my tix.

[Jordan]

The show is going to be great I have zero doubt. They just have kind of diluted the draw of it by booking so many multiman matches. Though still, it will be a crazy show with tons of insane spots. Likely going to see Cesaro and Zack as well as Tanahashi and Mox, those will be great singles.

[Fignuts]

Imagine getting one of the best wrestlers in the world today for one show, and booking him in a 4 way.

I miss the days when the best people made it onto a ppv and if you weren't good enough, then too bad. Instead, they fill the card with cluster fuck spot fest multi man matches.

[fundiddle]

i'm most excited about the possibility of el phantasmo attemping to back rake sting and then sting wags his finger and points to his tshirt

[Lock Jaw]

Watched the Christian Cage segment. What a handsome man, and what star power he exuded. Easily one of the best promos I have seen on AEW. I am #ALL-IN on Luchasaurus unmasking, becoming Christian's new problem solver, and helping Christian win the world title.

[Mr. Nerfect]

Sounds like another barnburner from the premier wrestling company in the world. This AEW/NJPW crossover has really shown what both sides bring to the table. You can’t sleep on excellence any longer.

[drave]

I fell asleep while Christian was talking.

[Jordan]

Bottom line for Jordan...

The PPV will slap fr fr

The card may not be bussin but all AEW PPV's be slappin no cap.

But he said wirty dords and besmirched the great Dylan from 90210!!


Is this a heel turn for Lock Jaw?!?!?!?!?! Some of y'all need to actually pray for Lock Jaw.

[Lock Jaw]

He said bullpoop but I didn't mind it cause he made it sound natural as opposed to using swear words in an attempt to look cool...


Smh @ the fans swearing though.... even cutting to kids chanting it.... won't those kids please think of the children?

[Mr. Nerfect]

I haven’t heard the Christian promo. I’m sure it’s good. He doesn’t need to swear though. He’d make it sound better than most, but it’s still unnecessary. It’s crazy how so many people don’t get how limiting cursing is when it comes to media. It’s a silly little hang-up, but it’s one that such a large portion of your audience has.

And I have noticed that wrestlers don’t know how to swear. I’m reminded of the line from The Shape of Things — “boys always think having a potty-mouth makes them cute.” That’s paraphrased, but whatever. They don’t understand how to do it effectively. It comes off like the cheeky boy in class who just figured out what these words mean and plans to get a reaction out of saying them. Just make the meaning behind what you’re saying important.

Randy Orton sounds cooler saying “frick” than these guys sound saying “bullshit” and “motherfucker” or whatever, because it makes him sound like someone conscious he’s actually coming to you via the medium of television. And he doesn’t need to hide behind obscenities for impact.

[Lock Jaw]

Yeah, that's why I hate the profanity.... Christian was ok in the promo, but while a face in AEW I saw him use profanity very much in the "look at me I'm cool" way that Chris Jericho seems to absolutely live doing these days just because he can.

[DaveWadding]

I miss the days when the best people made it onto a ppv and if you weren't good enough, then too bad. Instead, they fill the card with cluster fuck spot fest multi man matches.

I too am disappointed that they're disrespecting the Stone Pitbull by not giving him a singles match.

[DaveWadding]

Pretty sure Danielson's replacement is going to be the one true Ace of New Japan, Toru Yano.

[DaveWadding]

Andrade vs Fenix is a dream match for me. Been waiting for years for them to wrestle. Should be excellent.

It was the same shit he's said for the last decade.


"What about Christian. I've been in the business blah blah blah blah, where's my respect, blah blah blah blah, everything today is bullshit angry old man shaking fist at cloud.mp4"




He was much better playing a kazoo and wearing funny glasses.

[drave]

Oh yeah, and he talked shit about Jungle Boy's IRL dead dad for heat.

[Damian Rey 2.0]

Christian’s promo was too long but I liked the gist of it; him being pissed he missed a big pay day, jumping on the up and comer’s coattails, and jumping off when the gravy train made its last stop. The Luchasaurus thing was interesting too.

Excited for Okada. I get the annoyance of the multi man match but given how many guys are hurt, I’m ok with it. He’s still in a title match, and they threw Adam Cole in there hopefully to eat the pin.

Tana looks slower than I remember. But I think him and Mox will do fine. And I think the ace is gonna win the belt for some reason.

I want Malakai to win gold dammit.

[Damian Rey 2.0]

The pop when the coin drop hit my gawd inject it into my anal glands

[XL]

The whole Okada showing up the show before the PPV was weird. Can only imagine they were hoping to get Danielson cleared.

[Fignuts]

Pretty sure they had Danielson slotted to face Sabre Jr.

Okada's participation was always questionable due to his wife being pregnant.

[Mr. Nerfect]

I imagine the plan was Danielson vs. ZSJ, but when Danielson wasn’t cleared they have begged Okada to come in as a make-good.

[Mr. Nerfect]

I hope it’s an elimination match and Okada beats Cole, Page and White into oblivion. He can pin them all.

Also, Okada should be Danielson’s pick to face ZSJ. Make it a night of Okada.

Then Okada wins the G1 and chooses to go against Danielson in the Tokyo Dome. The New Japan guys can get upset Okada looked past them and you’ve got stories set up for when Okada is cemented.

[Mr. Nerfect]

They’re probably going to pay Claudio out the ass to come in and wrestle ZSJ. Unless they can get some other technical wizard, like Biff Busick to randomly come in. From the existent AEW roster, Samoa Joe or Jonathan Gresham makes sense from their side. I’d go with Joe against ZSJ, personally.

But I’d seriously try and go with the idea of Okada winning the World Title back, winning the G1 and going against Danielson. The rest of the card could look like:

* Hiroshi Tanahashi vs. Kota Ibushi - the loyalist vs. the renegade

* Tetsuya Naito vs. Shingo Takagi - LIJ clashes

* Will Ospreay vs. Jon Moxley - IWGP US Title

* Jay White challenging for the All-Atlantic Championship

* FTR vs. Dangerous Tekkers - IWGP Tag Team Championship

[Fignuts]

God I hope its not Jon Gresham.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Did the really announce a match as Sting, Darby, and two other guys and the two other guys are Shingo and Takahashi?

I don’t even watch that much NJPW but even I know who those two are

[Supreme Olajuwon]

This build has been really bad

[Damian Rey 2.0]

It’s been shit. Partly due to being so close to happening after they just had a ppv and partly because it feels like they had no idea what talent was gonna be available.

Next year they should just turn it into a New Japan v AEW cup type of deal.

[Sting Fan]

The pop for Okada was impressive. As someone wihout a lot of background in NJPW that took me by surprise despite my own excitement.

OC vs. Osprey will be a banger!

Get Adam Cole off my screen.

I think AEW missed a trick not profiling the NJPW guys a bit more pre there debuts.

[Fignuts]

Did the really announce a match as Sting, Darby, and two other guys and the two other guys are Shingo and Takahashi?

I don’t even watch that much NJPW but even I know who those two are

Shingo Takagi, former IWGP champ and Hiromu Takahashi former IWGP Jr. champ announced as "cronies".

Whole thing is worse than I ever could have imagined.

[Fignuts]

And now I'm hearing Ishii is out.

[Sting Fan]

Oh and TK needs to learn when a squash is ok. No offence to the guy Hangman faced but put a jobber out there, let Hangman decimate him and get on with the segment.

[Mr. Nerfect]

I have not heard of too many people who are enjoying this build, but you do have to remember that this is almost definitely deliberate. It’s so everyone can rise to the occasion and knock everyone’s socks off at the PPV.

[Jordan]

Oh and TK needs to learn when a squash is ok. No offence to the guy Hangman faced but put a jobber out there, let Hangman decimate him and get on with the segment.

This is a problem. Tony is a nerd for ROH guys like Silas Young. He see's value in him because Tony is a big ole rasslin nerd. He probably thinks Silas Young should be ROH champion or something.

[Damian Rey 2.0]

That explains his love for Kyle O’Reily.

[weather vane]

Almost fought Silas Young. Fuck him.

[DaveWadding]

Andrade vs Fenix on Rampage was everything I wanted.

[Mr. Nerfect]

I forgot to tape Rampage!
