Never feel like watching any O'Reilly or Fish matches...

Supreme Olajuwon 05-18-2022 09:05 PM

Good “clash of styles” in this match

Sepholio 05-18-2022 09:14 PM

lot of spots where one guy just stands there waiting to get mauled for long periods of time in this match. Not really digging it.

Wow at O'reilly going over Fenix.

weather vane 05-18-2022 09:14 PM

KOR

ron the dial 05-18-2022 09:14 PM

damn what a match this has turned out to be

Jordan 05-18-2022 09:15 PM

Goddamn .... that was a helluva match.

I am guessing O'Reilly vs Cole in the finals?

Triple A 05-18-2022 09:22 PM

Blood & Guts match?

weather vane 05-18-2022 09:22 PM

Would make sense.

Supreme Olajuwon 05-18-2022 09:24 PM

Damn, Chris Jericho is a facts machine

Sepholio 05-18-2022 09:26 PM

I bet Jeff Hardy feels great knowing they'll run angles about someones past with substance abuse in AEW too.

ron the dial 05-18-2022 09:26 PM

this "cuz i'm a wizard" shit is pissing me off

Triple A 05-18-2022 09:28 PM

William Regal way 2 low energy on the mic, bringing the segment down

ron the dial 05-18-2022 09:28 PM

toothbrush up the bottom

Sepholio 05-18-2022 09:29 PM

Ambrose slurring his words. A lot.

Yeah he was. That segment was great though. It was an entity unto itself.

What the fuck is this dumb ass karaoke bullshit.

Jordan 05-18-2022 09:34 PM

Oh Maki Ito I hate her.

ron the dial 05-18-2022 09:34 PM

YES MAKI ITOH

Triple A 05-18-2022 09:35 PM

I like Maki Itoh but seems bad to put her in the mystery wrestler position...

lol I had no idea she actually was one for years.

Still doesn't change that I'm going to laugh at is because I find the whole idol scene to be hilarious in general.

Yeah thought it was gonna be Ember Moon, but also feels like it would be bad to debut her that way against Britt Baker and have her lose right away

Triple A 05-18-2022 09:40 PM

inhumanly hard head, funny gimmick

Jordan 05-18-2022 09:41 PM

This is terrible.

Serena Deep is a good promo!

I feel like this tournament has like nothing to do with Owen.

Terrible episode this week

Triple A 05-18-2022 09:51 PM

Feel like the Jericho segment went way too long and now there's only 10 mins left

Bad News Gertner 05-18-2022 09:52 PM

AEW crumbling under the pressure of Raw being on a roll lately!

Cut Adam Cole's entrance so one of Jericho's lackeys could talk about how Danielson called Eddie lazy one time. Booker of the Year :rofl:

This implies Adam Cole doesn’t get enough tv time and I don’t think even trolls are trying to make that argument

I think her group sold maybe 500 albums.

Sepholio 05-18-2022 11:48 PM

They got a music video for selling 400 albums!

Mr. Nerfect 05-18-2022 11:49 PM

Did AEW debut two wrestlers named Johnny in the same night?

Jordan 05-18-2022 11:51 PM

The PPV looks great even though getting there has been crap. Way too much WWE stuff going on here. ROH needs a TV and needs to take away some of these people floating in the muck of Everest.

Nope, they just thought Morrison was Gargano :rofl:

Triple A 05-19-2022 12:20 AM

I hate that Bryan Danielson has barely said a word since he joined the dumb ass Blackpool Combat Club... feels like he is basically shelved from the roster, which seems bad since he's prob their best wrestler... such a waste

He doesn't need William Regal on the mic for him... Regal is brutal on the mic imo... I know every1 loves him but damn

Triple A 05-19-2022 12:22 AM

Blackpool Combat Club is "fine" I guess for now but just hope it doesn't last too long... War Games match will be cool, but then what... hope it is leading to something eventually where Danielson can split from Moxley

Triple A 05-19-2022 12:32 AM

wtf

apparently he was able to walk to the back afterwards on his own though

nice timing

Sepholio 05-19-2022 12:52 AM

Seriously hope the hobbling was because his leg was just asleep from being pinched in there for 10 minutes.

Triple A 05-19-2022 01:07 AM

In the video, it looks like he's in pain, but could also just be struggling to try to free himself. Looks like he's trying to pull his leg out and if it was badly hurt, they would try to be more careful with it. Hopefully nothing serious...

Triple A 05-19-2022 01:12 AM

Oh wow. I thought that was Jericho in the graphic for a second and Gargano debuted in a segment with him or something.

Sting Fan 05-19-2022 06:14 AM

I want to see Hangman as TNT champion when his World reign is over. Give it a minute to breath but Hangman just tearing it up weekly as TNT champ and he becomes the first grand slam champ would be good shit all round.

Jordan 05-19-2022 07:42 AM

Well I guess they need to stop using the ramp.

Evil Vito 05-19-2022 08:54 AM

Watched this morning.

I was happy with the Jokers. Johnny FittingLastName is always a welcome addition, I don't necessarily need to see him signed but I love the idea of him just floating around as a guest at numerous promotions and doing his thing. Maki Itoh is fun. I know some people were calling for Athena or Claudio or whatever but debuting them with losses wouldn't have made a lot of sense, plus the roster's packed as is.

I went into the tourney assuming there was no way Britt or Cole are missing the PPV and the brackets have shaped out for that, Cole's already clinched his spot and I'll be kinda stunned if Britt doesn't advance as well. Actually surprised that Britt/Toni is a semifinal match rather than configuring the bracket to do a fresh match like that at the PPV instead of Britt vs. Ruby 2. But I guess if Shida were healthy it would've been Britt vs. Shida 2 instead.

KOR/Fenix was my MOTN with Page/Takeshita as a close second. Really impressed with what I've seen from Takeshita the last few outings, I believe his US excursion is meant to be a lengthy one so I'd be happy to see him stick around for a while.

I've been loving the entire Wardlow/MJF angle, I really can't wait to watch Wardlow powerbomb that dude through the mat, the roof is gonna blow off the building.

Nothing felt actively bad but like others have said it felt like they had to kinda rush through the last half hour. I didn't mind Jericho and Regal's verbal sparring but it could've been shorter, we got the point very quickly. I did pop for Mox saying he wasn't gonna do that Stadium Stampede shit though. I'm all for a bigass gang warfare match so I'll enjoy that one.

All told a decent Dynamite, nothing crazy but keeps DoN shaping up nicely.

Triple A 05-19-2022 10:41 AM

:wtf:

Quote:

On Wednesday's post-Dynamite Wrestling Observer Radio, Bryan Alvarez said he was "strongly given the impression it was all a work from start to finish. I think he just came up with a wacky idea and thought it would be funny."

"I was told by someone there that they actually laughed about it. One way or another, I think we can tell you that he's not seriously injured and the whole thing was a work," he said.

drave 05-19-2022 10:46 AM

fucking marks

Mr. Nerfect 05-19-2022 01:10 PM

Sounds like damage control.

drave 05-19-2022 01:21 PM

mark

xrodmuc316 05-19-2022 03:09 PM

Yeah, lets do an angle like that for after the Rampage tapings, makes TOTAL sense :roll::roll::roll:

Sepholio 05-19-2022 03:32 PM

...wtf would be the point in working that?

Whenever anything that can make AEW looks bad, it’s a work. People were saying it when Cody left. MJF’s contract issues are an example.

DaveWadding 05-19-2022 10:16 PM

Watching Dynamite now.

Love Johnny. Him and Joe was an entertaining match.

Hangman / Takeashita was fucking great. Punk really added a lot to the storyline on commentary as well. Really enjoy the story they're telling. Takeshita has been super impressive in his 2 matches.

The AEW tag division might be my favorite part of the show at this point. Jungle Boy/Luchasaurus, Lee/Swerve, and Starks/Hobbs are all freaking wonderful. Not to even mention FTR, the Lucha Bros, Butcher and Blade, the Hardys...just great. The tag team matches are a highlight every single week.

DaveWadding 05-19-2022 10:24 PM

MJF and Wardlow are can't miss too. I hope their match delivers as much as their segments have.
