I liked it a lot better before the pandemic when there were just like 3 or 4 good matches on AEW Dark :'-(

Now like 18 squash matches on Dark, and another 18 squash matches on "Dark: Elevation"... feels like it really waters down "the product" imo!

ahhh, didn't know that. I mean....a lot of genuine talent have shown up. a lot more interesting than The Librarians. NWA could def use more talent when they can start putting shows on again.

Had a freaking sweet match with Matt Riddle in EVOLVE, and lots of other good matches in EVOLVE

Bononi so slow...

Ziggler's brother is good in his role as an obnoxious punching bag

Bononi has a great look

Emperor Smeat 03-31-2021 08:55 PM

Moxley vs. Bononi was decent.

Yeah, it was a lot more focused prior to the pandemic but it losing that packed crowd atmosphere for shows has hurt it a lot.

I'd assume once they are able to runs shows normally again, Dark and Dark Elevation are going to get scaled back a lot. Elevation probably will be more like what Dark was originally while Dark keeps their current format but in a much more reasonable show length.

Omega & Good Brothers new theme sounds okay.

Elevation should be moved to Saturday nights and can be the pre show for PPVs nights. If not on TNT or TBS, TruTV.

Triple A 03-31-2021 09:17 PM

Gallows and Anderson putting me 2 sleep as always

slik 03-31-2021 09:19 PM

Rey Fenix way better than Good Bros

Triple A 03-31-2021 09:19 PM

I wasn't watching during the Festus gimmick but Gallows should go back to it, seems good,,,

That's probably going to be the date for AEW's second TV show since it would make sense from a Turner network historical perspective and every other day in the week is already taken up by an AEW show or notable competitor show.

rez 03-31-2021 09:19 PM

Hard to be put to sleep when anytime Gallow's head is blood red and expect him to have a stroke or something...

Triple A 03-31-2021 09:20 PM

Penta and Fenix so good

Sweet "tope" by Laredo Kid on Omega

Emperor Smeat 03-31-2021 09:22 PM

Ouch at Omega's head getting planted by that Michinoku Driver by Kid.

Lucha Bros & Kid vs. Good Brothers & Omega was very good albeit more so because of its latter half.

I'd put it on TruTV. Rebrand that channel. I legit think the only reason it exists on most programming lineups is for the first few weeks of March Madness.

I think Rey Fenix (or PAC) is probably the best wrestler in AEW

I'd put it on TBS just to keep the running gag of Cena's game show ads showing up on AEW TV.

That probably makes Vince a tad upset that Cena is anyway associated with his main competition. He's probably also pissed that Triple H failed miserably at destroying AEW.

TNT & TBS broadcast a lot of live sports on the weekends, I think. Otherwise, they're broadcasting AAA movies they've licensed (Marvel, etc.). That's why I thought TruTV may be the best home as to not ruffle the feathers.

yeah they need to do a spring cleaning of some of the early aew people that did not work out. i wish they could have sent some of them to impact, the writers they have might have done something with them. the problem was some of those aew wrestlers had bad adatudes to impact thought they were better.

slik 03-31-2021 09:36 PM

cena's show on tbs looks way better than cody's go big show

Emperor Smeat 03-31-2021 09:38 PM

Women's tag match was pretty good although bit surprised Tay ate the loss.

Pretty good night for the division considering they got a match and 3 segments plus Red Velvet being involved in the Nightmare Family Civil War. That's more than what they usually were getting, especially prior to the Women's title tournament.

Card for next week's show looks nice.

Really like the match and show graphics AEW does for Dynamite compared to the usual bland and sterile ones WWE does for all of their tv shows.
