Travel restrictions. Same reason why AEW is still missing their Japan-based talent.

How many of you wouldn't say "Nice Ass!" if you saw Kiss from behind and didn't know he was a he?

Ouch at that Package Piledriver on the apron.

8-man tag match was pretty good for something that easily could have just been a squash match instead considering the jobbers on Sonny and Janela's team.

Guess Brodie Lee wants to start his very own landscaping business soon or has a really odd lawnmower collector's hobby.

I woulda thought Dark Order more of Bad Boy Mower fans

pretty funny concept to have them buy 6 brand new lawnmowers in celebration but segment was executed awkwardly

:lol: at Lee's Being the Elite bit of hating John Silver carrying over to Dynamite.

Left him hanging dry on that high five.

Dark Order coming off so culty now.

Why is Anna Jay not in the ring.......

Colt Cabana's roll in Dark Order reminds me of Peter from Deadpool 2. He's just happy to be there for the ride.

Hamburger underwear lmao

Wowww Brodie is like very Ox Bakerish.

:lol: at the "You Deserve it" chants.

Lee sounds way soo angry for someone who should be happy over his recent conquest.

Whelp Brodie used up the one swear word allowed this week. Chuckie T's swearless streak continues.

so hot

Brodie Lee was really good in that segment...

Crowd sounding quiet

Wowww Ana Jay is off to the back with Mr. Brodie! HOT

I would love to see Scorpio Sky get a big singles push against Brodie Lee at ALL OUT

Anna Jay looks great

So happy that Brodie has found his way. What an original character he's become.

That was a pretty great Dark Order segment. I should probably ask my dad how much money Brodie blew on those lawnmowers since he would know from his landscaping job.

Nice of Cody's pals to defend his honor. If this was WWE, more likely nobody would have come out since the worst friends to have there are good guys most of the time.

Yeah I totally think that is what they are going to do and tbh Sky has to win. He's gonna get labeled in our minds as a bridesmaid at this point if he loses.

I wish QT Marshal would act like a winner.

Poor Hangman, got kicked out of the Elite.

Finally! Some real progression! Can't wait to see what becomes of the dark Hangman and the dark Omega.

Why would he want to be in a group with the whining crying Young Bucks.

Between those 3, Page is the easy choice.

When's the Penelope Ford swimsuit calendar coming out

lol at the crutch hit

That women's match might have been the sloppiest one ever in AEW.

Started off with a botch and it never recovered.

Kip so hot...

Nice of Anna to put in a good word for Tay Conti's membership in the Dark Order.

Who would win...

New World Order B&W B-Team or Dark Order?

Tag stipulation of winners face each other doesn't really make sense but whatever

They should sign Tay Conti

Let's go Sammy G

Ouch at Sammy getting busted open

Like 3 mins of non-PIP TV time for this match

How'd he get busted open?

I'd laugh if Sammy and Hardy broke all the tables via themselves in this match.

damn @ twist of fate with the chair

Did they ever explain why Excalibur is absent?

Tables match was decent but also pretty weak for a main event. The Jericho & Orange brawl afterwards saved it from ending on a dull note.

This week's episode was very good overall. Started off a bit slow but got better as the show went on. Nothing really great in terms of matches but it had a ton of great story building stuff throughout the show.

OC, the fastest sloth in all of Mexico...err Florida.

Not really but apparently he was at the commentary booth before the show went on the air.

Yessssssss Sammy won

They should add a base level of fake crowd noise to the live shows like WWE does imo... crowd was very quiet at times!

Really enjoyed that show overall

Tag match wasn't that good and the women's match was terrible but other than that, really great

Excalibur was on commentary for AEW Dark apparently

RNC taps out to Dynamite on Twitter

Scott Norton would have destroyed those guys.

Brian Adams>Brodie Lee

More excellence from AEW. I’m looking forward to All Out.

Apparently two people in the crowd got kicked out early into the show for refusing to follow the mandatory face mask rule.

Lance Archer wants to kill everyone he should have No Lives Matter shirt

Wrestling fans above all should know the importance of keeping your mask on.

I highly doubt AEW would allow it but honestly you are a marketing genius GOOD SIR.

He's the fucking Murderhawk who goes around saying Everybody Dies

How would that shirt be controversial given his gimmick

only because Twitter shadowbanned trump from trending

they should have saved this for All Out since it gives away theyre losing the titles

That's not a real thing, just conspiracy nonsense

Trump trends all the time for opening his mouth

According to Fightful Select, the reason why the Hardy vs. Sammy Tables match felt rushed and poorly laid out in regards to commercials breaks was due to three other segments earlier on the show went longer than planned.

Probably also why the Tay Conti joining Dark Order segment ended up being a bit awkward and outta nowhere because they were rushing for time.

Maybe it's just me, but I feel like Thunder Rosa is just at a different level as a character and a performer from Shida. The unpainted half of her face shows more expressions than Shida's entire body. Any decently run promotion would have her as a top star. But AEW, I am not sure because I don't think Omega has a Latina fetish.

Also, what the fuck was that Darby Allin shit? Ricky Starks mocked him, beat him up, and humiliated him in the middle of the ring with the help of Brian Cage, and the best he could respond with was a promo that had all the passion of a burned out office worker, and he jumped off a bridge? (I get it, he did strike back later on, but if the promo was all I saw, I wouldn't be all that invested in him getting revenge). Basically he sounded like a shitty parody of Ricky Starks' parody of him. Also, Ricky needs a mouthpiece about as much as Brian Cage needs "Supplements."

Methinks FTR and Tully are in Hangman's ear and talking up the frustrations that Adam feels towards the Bucks trying to use their friendship with Page and Kenny to get a leg up on the ladder.

Meanwhile, FTR in Hangers eyes have been stand up lads who he can share a beer with and massage his insecurities whilst the Bucks and Kenny are continually critical of his actions (which are warranted too, because in character he is a childish drunk who has flagging amounts of dedication towards his friends. He's always been the last guy to run to save the Bucks and never really tried).

So I guess this was Page repaying his 'real' friends by helping FTR win, before realising his stupid mistake. And he finally burned the bridge towards the bucks completely.

Now if Kenny and Page lose (which they probably will), it's to be seen whether Kenny gives up on Hangman too after his betrayal and worsening of his bad traits.

I'm fully expecting FTR to also scoff at Hangman and telling they were never friends, and it was all business/part of the game...

Hopefully it leads to a face Hangman trying to find redemption, because my god those puppy dog eyes break souls.

Also, with Kenny losing it more often, I'm kinda expecting him to lay out hangman and go heel himself, realising that trying to help his friends only led to frustration.

(I have loved this story so much. It's genuinely one of the best long burn stories in a very long time)
