I try to avoid commenting so much because those that really enjoy the shows are often fanatical about it, but for real, how much longer can this go on?

Big announcement, massive signings, change the business etc… only to under deliver every single time. Sometimes so daramtically that you wonder if it’s a joke…

Jeff Jarrett was great…20 years ago. He is now 55 years old and is an exec. Why would I care about this?

The whole Colt Cabana thing is them going out of their way to be petty.

I watch some shows at times and (although I hate the no selling, breakneck style), I find myself enjoying different aspects of it.

But it feels like they are shooting themselves in the foot on a weekly basis now. It’s embarrassing and the likes of Jericho, Moxley and The Elite as locker room leaders just seem to make Khan’s ego and lack of understanding even worse.

It’s a real mess, I hope Jarrett is ready for some work…and to be despised and quickly thrown out if he tries to correct the boys.

Why did Jeff Jarrett debut last night and not in two weeks on the post-Full Gear episode of Dynamite

Why did Jeff Jarrett debut at all?

Nah, I like Jeff, but come on — this is ridiculous.

Jeff’s there to make Jericho look younger. They’ve got to make these giant promises because the interest generated from the actual content just isn’t enough.

I desperately want wrestling to be good. I started this thread so positively. The last thing we need is more bad wrestling though. Well, I don’t even know if WWE counts as bad anymore. There are obviously still things that need to change, but I don’t know how anyone can compare the products and decide that AEW ticks more boxes right now. So it’s now got to contend with basically being TNA — it’s something else but it’s not better than the main thing. What are they trying to deliver?

The Colt Cabana thing is just childish from a 50 yr old man who is jealous of another dude’s talent and pissed off there is heat from a decade ago. It’s his playground. Don’t come in here and try to show the other kids how to jump the monkey bars! The idea of Jericho being a locker room leader is terrifying. And they’ve let him have creative input when the dude has displayed nothing but Russo-like tendencies. Cornette raised an interest question the other week: If Jericho was such a locker room leader, where was he when all this stuff was brewing? He loves swooping in and benefitting from it.

His ego is eventually going to clash with someone else. People like that have to throw someone else under the bus for their shortcomings.

Holy shit, Dave Meltzer did a bit about Colt Cabana being used on Dynamite meaning that CM Punk was the guy keeping him off. He yelled on his radio show, almost blowing up Bryan’s ears without Meltzer’s face showing any expression.

It doesn’t even track. It can’t possibly be the company is just petty…

Nah. It was definitely CM Punk holding Colt Cabana down. Even before he got there and Cabana couldn’t make Dynamite, it was Punk.

Was Dynamite laughably bad or is it just me?

It was pretty meh

I’m not excited for Jarrett, but I am glad he’s nowhere near the main event.

Cabana was fun. I genuinely think not following wrestling social makes the shows more fun. No over excited expectations be it from the companies, wrestlers or just fan speculation.

I really wanted Cage to win last night though.

I enjoyed it. Messy in some parts but it felt like programs kept moving along and, as usual, there were some decent matches.

They’re running out of people to sign. But the good news is they can have people under contract and just not use them for ages, blame Punk, then use them and it’ll be like they’re new. Peter Avalon next week.

Feels like the hype videos have gotten better tbh.

And I’m excited for HOB return, Elite return, the death Triangle feud is gonna rip shit up and FTR run to the belts will be good too.

Lots to look forward too I think.

lol the AEW shop is selling a CM Punk Christmas ornament. Only 200 of them are available.

That beauty can be yours for only 14.99!

That’s a cool $300 in Punk’s pocket.

He’ll sell more of those than Orange Cassidy sells shirts.

that looks so bad lol

Jeff Jarrett so good, first time I’ve seen him since WCW I think, looks in good shape and great on the mic, very glad we got a “slapnuts”

Only downside is he’s teamed up with Jay Lethal and co who I skip through every time they’re on, so boring. Wish he was in charge of The Firm instead since they seem like they’re going to be fairy prominent. Stokely isn’t a very good leader of a dominant hitman faction imo.

Again too many ROH and uninteresting people involved in the show, need Bucks and Omega back asap.

Billy Gunn vs Jeff Jarrett for the AEW heavyweight championship at the next ppv please

lmao that is horrendous

I presume even though Punk's almost certainly not returning AEW have no choice but to offload the merch that was made for him since he gets a cut of it and is still, for now, under contract.

They're still selling his shirts at live events too. Best to not fuck around with it, WWE pulled Punk's merch as soon as he walked out and then after they fired him they had to cut a deal with Punk to sell the merch online because he lost out on income from the walkout through his July release date.

Those are limited edition, only 200 available. Somebody tell Fan he better hurry up and buy! Dude will be in utter dishevelment if he misses out :rofl::rofl::rofl:

it's a funny word.

I know you think shingles is painful, but have you ever had SHAMBLES?!

Honestly, how much would Shingles throw Fan into Shambles? :eek:

Desperate projection of SHAMBLES is a late-stage side effect of BOILING and being in TATTERS (along with rampant transphobia/homophobia). There is no known treatment for the BOILING TATTERS. Death is imminent at this stage. Goodnight, my child. Noid soon to be a widow.

SuperMAN SHAMBLES to the rescue.

Let me guess, Fan wasnt quick enough to snag a CM Phil Christmas Ornament, got super mad, and posted the same nonsense he always has? He probably parroted back some form of what I posted, mixed in with some reference to something else I posted like 3 years ago, and implied I was gay, while also somehow mocking homophobia unironically.

How did I do Seph?

The AEW video game is going to be so funny.

....after rereading his post that turns out to be a pretty accurate assessment.

They probably put a Jackson’s wife in charge of the Christmas ornaments, because she’s more than qualified.

There better be a Keith Lee one.

They need to have a Darby Allin Elf on the Shelf that you move around and position in different places. He can have a little skateboard and you forget he exists for the rest of the year.

Oh boy. The rapid fake ignores are speeding up. The disease is progressing quickly. The frenzied rofls are next. Then… oh boy…

Lol, Matt Hardy is like “The Elite are right. They’ve done nothing wrong. I witnessed it all.” Then he issues a correction: “Sorry, I wasn’t actually at All Out, I didn’t see anything.”

Fucking idiots.

They should make one with both Adam Cole and Colt Cabana.

It could be "ALL ABOUT THE SCOTTY BOOM...BOOM!"

Broken Matt witnessed it from one of his plains of dimensions.

90% of the proceeds from the CM Punk one should go to the Colt Cabana Relief Fund. To be payable to his mother.

He’s also in a dimension where he is talented and Jeff is sober.

Jade Cargill: All the women in AEW can have a five star match, they just need the time to do it.

Does she mean they can have a five star match if their time wasn’t so short, or if they got more time to, like, train in a hyperbolic chamber or something?
