AEW 1.22.20 - JeriCruise!
 

Here we go!

THEY'RE ON A BOAT! THEY'RE ON A BOAT! TAKE A GOOD LONG LOOK AT THE MOTHER FUCKIN' BOAT!

:D

I know it's taped and all, but I'll still tune in.

The setup is great, looks like a lot of fun to be there. Rabid crowd as expected!

That wind is blowin'.

No doubt the lifesavers on the ringposts will double as weapons tonight.

Cruise ship looks great on camera!

I know they aren't hiding that it is taped, so I wish they taped the matches in the daylight. Would have looked amazing.

With the way everything looks for the cruise show, AEW could easily pull off a Spring Break style show if they ever decide to do one.

Instead of taking place on a boat, they could rent out some fancy beach house venue and have an ocean view as part of the background.

Wish I didn't read spoilers........

I wish the hard cam was actually facing the entrance on this show. Just because that gazebo looks so close to the ring on certain angles.

Night time seems way better. Day time wrestling never looks right to me...

That sucks bro.

I think they are using a 16x16 ring tonight btw, old school

This is cool...

Yeah the ring def seems smaller

Did you read that somewhere? I think they normally use 16x16 and WWE does 18x18 right?

Everything's jammed in there pretty tight if you go online and look for pictures.

Don't know which cruise line Jericho went to put this together. But, I bet this ship doesn't have a big theatre or stage that you see in some of the commercials.

This REALLY feels like Nitro. In many ways, and in all the good ways.

I'm glad I accidentally only saw 1 match's spoilers

Normally yes, but background shots of the ocean would look incredible.

Jericho made a great decision going with this venture.

no @ J-X

just guessing

Do you guys think they break kayfabe on this cruise when the cameras aren't rolling?

Yeah.

I love Omega. I'd really love to see him go with Scorpio in a one on one match.

Meltzer wasn't joking when he said everything was very packed.

Page doing a simple ax handle smash to the outside resulted in him landing in the crowd.

Cutter onto the ramp shown on the picture in screen or whatever it's called. Pretty dope.

How do you kick out of a double underook piledriver.

Hey, hey, hey.

Tag title match was pretty good overall.

Probably could have shaved off a couple minutes to make it flow a bit better but was still a very good one.

Nice! Sweet finish to a really good tag team match. Very happy to see new BIG TIME tag champs. Good arch for Page as well who has had a very interesting story since the beginning in AEW.

:lol: at Hangman crowd surfing and drinking a beer at the same time.

:rofl:

Hangman getting body surfed out.

I LOVED that shot of Kenny holding up the tag gold and pointing at his partner and future foe Hangman. Dope.

I'm really gonna have to consider going to this shindig next year

I hope Priscilla Kelly gets signed!

Love this so far

2 hot chicks in the ring, on the cruise ship.

They should be wearing bikinis. Or some very sexy swimsuits here.

That was the best Britt Baker ever looked. Funny heel promo.

Meh what's with the women hating on the commentating team. lame lame

s0 hot........

This reminds me of Spring Break Nitro in the best way

Jim Ross was *this* close to calling Britt Baker a "damn dental jezebel"

Captain on deck.

Yeah her match and promo insulting Tony afterwards was pretty good.

Chuckie T probably chucked someone overboard in anger after finding out Britt got to say "shit" this week.

Great fucking entrance for Jericho you know he felt like a fucking king.

lol..would have even been funnier if Marko came out with floaties on

AEW should totally do a Mall of America show as a throwback.

That would be really cool.

Oh no @ this "she shed" commercial again

:lol: at Ortiz's antics.

Jurassic Express vs. Jericho & Pals match was pretty good overall.

1st hour was also pretty good overall.

Ortiz's tactics are wearing on me. I don't think it's "good". Like when an actor is pulling focus in a scene almost. Just kind of annoying.

AEW currently the top trend on Twitter in the U.S.

lol @ him chewing gum like that... the best

Wonder if Baron Corbin is watching AEW again.

Yikes at Janela getting spiked by MJF's Cross Rhodes.

Match itself was good at best.

Cody's smoke pyro makes it look like the stage is on fire because of how windy it is.

lol the best heel

Does "asshole" count as a swear on tv?

Cody might have just used up next week's allowed swear word if that's the case.

Those drone shots of the cruise boat looked cool.

Jericho and AEW had such a great idea to do a show on a boat since it contributed a lot to the unique feel AEW has for some of their shows.

Wish I was on this damn boat

This is the most fun rasslin show on tv r/n

It's so nice of Jericho to get these pale ass wrestling fans outta the house and some vitamin D

Tony totally big timing Page to ask Kenny another question lol

damn, I missed it

And just as soon as I praise the subtleness of that, 4 seconds later JR "Bah was that a dig, what's going on with the Elite?" .

Thanks JR

:-\ No pirate gear nor eye patch for Moxley.

Then again no pirate ship either.

I hope it's PAC. I won't be disappointed either way. If they want to sell 100,000 PPV's then Mox is probably the way to go right?

do not like the way he says Jon Moxley...

Very drunk cruise crowd keeps chanting f-bombs that they have to censor out.

This is probably the most F words said in a wrestling tv show since the last time WWE went to the Hammerstein Ballroom for an ECW branded show.

Also one of the rare times where you can blame the crowd for being annoying since its messing up the audio a lot because of TNT's constant censoring.

Is Miracle Workers a good show?

These commercials TNT has been airing the past few weeks make it seem like it might be a good comedy show.

I’d rather them be engaged in the show/characters/matches and chanting things that can’t be aired instead of absolutely bored out of their fucking skull or treated like they’re damn idiots, and silent.

truth

I've been wondering that too. Too lazy to check if the 1st season is streamable somewhere

I also have wondered this

The windy weather must have really messed up PAC since that's twice he had to hesitate to get better footing or likely wait till after a wind gust to pull off a high flying spot.

PAC vs. Moxley was very good overall.

Dynamite was a nice fun show despite the in-ring limitations due to the setting and the windy weather affecting the audio at times. Was a lot more mat-based than usual for an AEW show.

Next year's cruise show being live is going to be really interesting to see how they pull that off.

I think Moxley started rolling around while on the floor one of the times, which confused Pac... that's what Bryan Alvarez was saying... Moxley did some weird turn around while he was down

Got a feeling that between the spoilers and the impeachment trial coverage, which took a much bigger bite out of AEW last time, and Monday's big comeback that this might be NXT's week.

I think AEW will still win because of the whole cruise thing

920 to 780 imo

Really fun show this week overall

I wonder if both shows will be down due to sports and politics

Yeah wouldn't be surprised if it happened.

NXT also had the advantage of very good looking card for tonight's show and potential go-home Rumble and Worlds Collide show interest despite the build for both events lacking a lot on NXT.

NXT didn't have a lot of hype going into tonight other than Lee vs Strong for the North American Title. While that match was really good, the rest was just throw together to build for the Worlds Collide PPV this Saturday.

I remember seeing commercials during the Red Sox world series run and then forgot all about it.

It's 74 percent on Rotten Tomatoes.

I haven't watched 1 second of the impeachment stuff. AEW will win the ratings over NXT even though it was taped.

The Tony Schiavone/Britt thing reminded me of this in a round about way

Tony Schiavone heel turn in a Hawaiian shirt 17 years ago today

Kinda weird

AEW: 871,000
NXT: 769,000

NXT's demos still causing it to be in the mid 30s vs top ten for AEW


https://i.postimg.cc/Kj2BHbhn/3Jnit8yH.png

Kind of amazing even a taped AEW show beat out a live NXT one. NXT still suffering from them dropping the ball big time during the winter holidays.

Wonder if WWE got way too over confident about NXT's chances to rebound and felt they didn't need the main roster's Road to Rumble rub unlike what they did for Survivor Series. If Worlds Collide was meant to be the Rumble replacement for outside interest, it failed to do so.

A couple of my friends are on the cruise

I don't think it being taped mattered that much due to the uniqueness of the venue.

are they/did they have fun
