"It's a dumpster match, like from Wrestlemania 14!" - Tony Khan

[Sepholio]

Tonights episode is called "Dumpster Fire"

[IC Champion]

I hope CM punk shows up.

[Sepholio]

I'd be ok with that if it ended up with him being unceremoniously tossed in the dumpster.

[IC Champion]

I wouldn’t be okay with that.

[Jordan]

I can tell everyone is very excited!

[ClockShot]

About to leave work and race home.

Hope I don't miss much.

[rez]

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO LET'S GO DYNAMITE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Raw has it’s first good episode in 47 years and everyone is jumping off the Elite bandwagon

[xrodmuc316]

I for real hate Wheeler Yuta, he is boring as fuck, but because he bled a lot that one time he is suddenly tough? He does not belong in one on one matches with even over the hill Jericho.

Also, did Tiny sign Toni Storm JUST so he could make a tag team named ThunderStorm, OR did he sign Toni because he is a money mark and then it dawned on him "Hey Thunder and Storm...ThunderStorm... OHHHHHHHMUUUUUHGAWD YAAAAS BOOKER OF THE YEAR!!!"?

[Jordan]

Mox is opening the show I think, with a sick promo.

[Jordan]

This episode has a lot of potential to be a shitty off week for AEW, hopefully I'm wrong.

[Triple A]

Damn @ Excalibur being the play by play guy for the first hour again instead of JR... makes the show feel like a taped Rampage . . .

[rez]

OC should have been Flair's last opponent

[Triple A]

I for real hate Wheeler Yuta, he is boring as fuck, but because he bled a lot that one time he is suddenly tough? He does not belong in one on one matches with even over the hill Jericho.

Wish the big pushes for guys like him and Daniel Garcia were used on guys with personality . . . Miro for example . . . . . . seems like a waste, feel like Yuta will never be a "star," 2 boring

[rez]

HAHHAHAHA

[rez]

That guy was huge!

[Triple A]

idk what to eat

[Jordan]

Not a big fan of this Yuta/Jericho booking. Don't want to be too negative you know but... this isn't a thrilling story because Yuta, while good, isn't over.

[Triple A]

Liked it better when they always aired the entire first match to open Dynamite...

[rez]

idk what to eat

I'm munchin on some Trader Joe's 3 Cheese Pizza

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Grilled chicken tacos tonight

Chicken thighs marinated in a blend of spices, oil, and lime juice

Served on corn tortillas with red onion, avocado, queso fresco, cilantro plus sour cream and hot sauce if you like

[Jordan]

idk what to eat

I am having Shake Shake. I don't often have fast food so I went heavy with a double bacon jam cheddar burger with fries of course and a black and white milkshake. I didn't know what black and white was otherwise I'd probably have gotten a malt.

mmmmmm

[Jordan]

It's a shame about Santana's injury, the guy has a lot of potential, and that tag team had a ton. But I guess they have issues, Ortiz and Santana, so it's probably not going to happen going forward. Santana will probably leave AEW, but it would have been a good program to have Ortiz and Santana go against 2.0 JAS guys.

[rez]

haven't heard any mention of Starrcast.

[Jordan]

I really like Jay Lethal.

[Jordan]

IDK why they didn't have Lethal lock in the figure four when OC when down attempting the Orange Punch.

[Triple A]

damn all that food sounds good . . .

decided to order sushi, cheers

[Triple A]

hate Sonjay Dutt and this whole jobber ass stable

[Jordan]

WARDLOWS WORLD

[xrodmuc316]

BOOM!

[Jordan]

I hope Adam Cole goes back to work for Triple H!

[Triple A]

adam cole's promos kill me . . . being 2 negative tonight

[Triple A]

cool

[Triple A]

Don't want the Bucks to be faces though, like them much better as obnoxious heels

[Triple A]

damn @ the lil kid being devastated @ the Undisputed Elite breaking up!

[slik]

The little kid crying at the Young Bucks being beaten up lolololol

[Triple A]

hmm, Omega not gonna be ready in time?

[slik]

wtf are those jeans

[Jordan]

The Hung Bucks lol

[ClockShot]

Got home. Saw Adam Cole and reDRagon turn on the bucks.

How'd the first match go?

[ClockShot]

Jungle Boy needs to go to the Stone Cold School of Backstage Driving.

[Triple A]

Got home. Saw Adam Cole and reDRagon turn on the bucks.

How'd the first match go?

Was "fine"

Jay Lethal beat Orange Cassidy with a Lethal Injection I think. Then they attacked OC but Wardlow and Best Friends ran out to make the save and ran them off

[Triple A]

Thunder Rosa "sand bagging" shirt seems "retarded"

[Triple A]

jesus @ Jamie Hayter`s ass

[ClockShot]

About time Hayter and Baker got matching outfits.

[Triple A]

Jamie Hayter + Serena Deeb are the best women wrestlers in AEW imo!

[Triple A]

Kris Statlander also, forgot about her...

[ClockShot]

Nice Stunner, Rosa.

[Jordan]

Imagine going to an event and bringing that sign that says "HEY BRITT HAVE MY BAY BAY"

[ClockShot]

Good stuff going on here.

[Triple A]

nice, good match!

[Triple A]

idk how people don't die / get concussed after taking those Toni Storm ass attacks

[Supreme Olajuwon]

RAINMAKERRRRRRRRRR

You heard it from the man himself. Team Taz is dead.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Dang is Hobbs getting the center entrance gimmick?

Strap the rocket ship baybee

[Triple A]

Hobbs looks great! Superstar!

[Triple A]

his spinebuster is so good

[Jordan]

I am on Team Hobbs.

[Jordan]

Confused why the only good booking I've ever seen for Malakai was in NXT. It's not that hard, he's a natural star but they are smothering him with this over the top gimmick. They need to just beat some ass.

[Triple A]

Sushi has arrived...

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Sushi has arrived...

Need the roll details please

Also need to know your wasabi/soy sauce ratio


ARE YOU A PICKLED GINGER GUY

[Supreme Olajuwon]

First time I ever had sushi was in Queens, NY. First time I had edamame too.

Just a hop skip and a train ride from Yonkers. So close.

[rez]

I want to see the offspring of Vanguard 1 come for Christian Cage

[slik]

Sushi has arrived...

what did u get

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Predicting a rainbow roll, a spicy tuna, and some gyoza

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Maybe a speciality roll if the place is legit

[IC Champion]

Flabbergasted that Christian is 48 years old.

Marty Jannetty beats Marty Jannetty in a hard fought match.

Of course brother

- Sexy Pink Lady Roll
Spicy salmon, cucumber and crunch on the inside; salmon and mango on the outside. Topped with spicy mayonnaise, sweet wasabi mayo and eel sauce. It is so sexy.

- Smoked Salmon Avocado Roll

- Tuna Roll

I mix in quite a bit of wasabi in my soy sauce.

And yes sir, I love pickled ginger.

Got too much though... Sexy Pink Lady Roll was much bigger than I thought. Usually don't get any of the fancy rolls but thought I'd try something new!

guy being choked by anna jay was kinda cute

Love The Acclaimed

oh no @ Mance Warner vs. Jon Moxley match......................

[slik]

think of the gunns might have broken their ankles on the landing

[Triple A]

over under 3 mins and 15 seconds for 1 of them to blade

[IC Champion]

Love The Acclaimed

I had no idea there was a battle of the belts special THIS WEEK

[rez]

Madison Rayne. heyy oohh

Wheeler has YUTA NUFF of Chris Jericho

GOOD OL JR HAS YUTA NUFF

Over. 3.5 mins on the dot after they take it to the outside just 2 minutes in and someone gets tossed into a post.

[slik]

And it would seem, 10 minutes since my last post, TPWW has YUTA NUFF

Thread Dead

[slik]

why is jericho wearing breathing strips on his nose during the match

[Frank Drebin]

Random "Oh yeah Madison Rayne will debut" announcement.

[rez]

Lionhart!

[Frank Drebin]

Relieved OC lost clean even though it was just to prop up Jay Lethal before he gets slammed by Wardlow.

[Frank Drebin]

Not a bad show tonight. Not great but def a step up from most shows since DON. I know they're probably waiting on potential returns from Punk, Omega and Cole but I really want to see the All Out card shaping up much more over the next week or two.

[Triple A]

why is jericho wearing breathing strips on his nose during the match

Think he legit broke his nose against Kingston

[Frank Drebin]

Still want to vomit thinking about a trios tag team title and another bloody tournament of probably 4 teams to determine the first champion. Ugh @ them having no idea what to do with post-title Hangman other than throw him into this. At least it isn't with Dark Order.

[Frank Drebin]

Acclaimed are fucking great. I still think Bowens has star potential. Caster obvs a pro on the mic and an under rated worker, imo

[BigCrippyZ]

Fun show. Really hope they give Mox and Jericho at least 20-30 minutes next week. Why wouldn’t you?

[BigCrippyZ]

Acclaimed and Gunn Club are also great/fun. Feel like both of them got to showcase their talents and get over in this feud. Really want to see what happens next. Darby and King is underrated so far, looking forward to it.

[Sting Fan]

Weird show, didn’t feel amazing but it kinda felt like we’re back to having a direction. As much as Adam Cole isn’t a guy I enjoy the whole storyline around him, the Buck, Hangman etc feels like a return to direction.

I don’t enjoy Ethan Page.

Yuta vs Jericho was nice, hoped to see a lion tamer and wasn’t disappointed.

Love the Acclaimed, very interested to see a Bowens solo run one day. On paper he feels like the partner that might get left behind but i have a hunch both might go on to do big stuff.

[Sting Fan]

Oh also… are we going to get Wardlow power bombing Satnam singh???

Gosh I hope so!

[Evil Vito]

Watched this morning.

-OC/Lethal was a solid opener. Crowd is perpetually hot for OC in every town they visit. Lethal going over was the right call to set themselves up for Wardlow's next defense though. And speaking of which, that pop Wardlow got...damn. Dude looks the part of a star, hopefully he can have a nice long TNT title run and re-establish that belt a bit after it was hot potatoed a bunch.

-Didn't see Cole turning on the Bucks straight away. They went out of their way to mention that Cole and KOR aren't medically cleared, which would seem to mean they won't be doing Hung Bucks vs. UE at the PPV but I guess as soon as they're cleared. There's also the matter of Kenny's return as Khan very bluntly stated multiple times that he was waiting on Kenny's return before bringing Trios belts in. A wrinkle could be if KOR gets cleared and they actually throw Kenny with reDragon.

-Thunderstorm vs. Baker and Hayter was probably the best women's match they've had on Dynamite in months. They were given real time and were all working their asses off in that one. Speaking of asses, I'm super glad Hayter got the win. Hopefully can lead to a Britt split-off and a push soon enough.

-Team Taz getting split up after 2 years, oh well, guess it makes sense now with Starks and Hobbs feuding and Hook doing his own thing with Danhausen.

-On the entire AEW roster I'm not sure there's a match I'd want to see less than Christian Cage vs. Matt Hardy. I mean it was fine for what it was but kinda tough to not focus on the fact that I'm watching a match that would have moderately interested me in like 2009, I don't need to see it in 2022. I was just waiting for the post-match. Bring on the Jungle Boy/Christian match.

-Dan Lambert no longer with Ethan Page either, seems they're killing off some of these long-running stables. Not a bad thing to shake things up in a while, I liked Lambert but Page was lost in the background there. Page is a good talker and doesn't need a manager who will cut his promos for him, Stoke seems more like he'd be a background guy.

-Dumpster Match was just dumb fun. Really love The Acclaimed, those guys have bright futures. And honestly the Gunns have started to win me over too after not being able to care about them for a while, those guys are such shitbirds, I like seeing them get humiliated.

-Jericho/Yuta was the best Jericho match I've seen since probably the first Jericho/Kingston at Revolution. Yuta is really good, a great plucky underdog vibe about him that's easy to root for. Sorta like with his match with Mox a few months ago he manages to get you just right to the point of suspended your disbelief even if deep down you know he ain't winning. Liontamer made me pop.

-Glad Jericho/Mox is gonna be on TV instead of the PPV BUT I fear there could be a fuck finish that sets up a PPV rematch. Otherwise I truly have no clue where they're going with the PPV as all indications are Punk's foot is still pretty fucked and I don't know he'll be back.

[Damian Rey 2.0]

I’d like to see Ethan Page get a huge push and eventually get built up to take on Wardlow. Think that would be a great program for the both of them.

[Mr. Nerfect]

Interesting that they’ve gone with Page joining The Bucks for a trios feud. This is another mark towards my “Kenny Omega is never going to return to AEW” theory. TK has been pretty public in saying that he wanted to do a trios tournament with Omega. Page joining The Bucks basically takes Omega’s place. Tentatively speaking, of course.

Look — Omega is a big sooky baby. He had the match with Danielson, but his ideas of what pro-wrestling should be clash with what guys like Punk and Bryan are bringing to the table, and you would think that they would have influence. Omega is older, slower, banged up and insecure with fading power. Then you’ve got to figure in the video game nightmare. I’ve said from the beginning that this could be a Shawn Michaels play. His AEW deal is up in January. If he has not signed with AEW, he could be talking to WWE right now.

I think there could be a very strong chance of AJ Styles vs. Kenny Omega at WrestleMania next year.
