Evil Vito 07-01-2020 02:43 PM

Really looking forward to all of the tag matches as I like just about everybody involved in them.

Shida rules. Big spot for Ford here as the women's division needs a lot of help at the moment.

Evil Vito 07-01-2020 02:48 PM

Not really feeling the TNT Title match despite generally loving Cody's work. I know they're doing the whole fighting champion/open challenge thing but the roster is big enough you don't need Cody wrestling every week. Plus it's very possible that the TNT Title matches he's had in the last month are gonna be better than the one he'll have with Hager.

Have had no interest in seeing Hager wrestle again after that boring Mox match. Maybe if they stink the joint out here it'll be the end of the Hager experiment.

Bad News Gertner 07-01-2020 03:05 PM

Cody Rhodes Vs Jack Swagger. A main event on Main Event anywhere in the world.

slik 07-01-2020 03:28 PM

Hoping for some fun surprises and looking forward to Fyter Fest!

Evil Vito 07-01-2020 03:35 PM

Not really sure what use Hager will be after he's lost to Moxley and Cody.

His booking is reminiscent of an era where heels come in, lose to a top babyface or two and then move on to the next territory.

Jordan 07-01-2020 04:24 PM

Best thing for Hager would be to have him join Dark Order and then Jericho could get Rusev to take his spot in The Inner Circle and Dark Order can go against Inner Circle. Hager under a mask is the only way I could ever see him getting over.

Mr. Nerfect 07-01-2020 05:46 PM

Only segments that will gain viewers are MJF because he’s good, Shida and Ford for fap times and maybe Q2 of the tag title match because “it has to end sometime.” But I kind of expect them to put the Tag Titles on last because their booking is all wonky, so they will probably sink the night. This will also be a good chance for them to tie in Orange Cassidy.

Looks like a really lackluster card for night one. Cody vs Swagger might be good, the rest is meh.

Night 2 will be better next week assuming Mox can go, but even if he can't, night 2 still beats this week's card.

Emperor Smeat 07-01-2020 08:03 PM

MJF's match opening up the show is a bit of a surprise.

Evil Vito 07-01-2020 08:07 PM

Really hope MJF and Wardlow jump Mox after next week’s match to set him in motion as the next challenger for All Out.

Wanted to hold off on that program until there are fans back in the stands, but it’s time.

Triple A 07-01-2020 08:07 PM

Nice suplex by MJF...

Emperor Smeat 07-01-2020 08:09 PM

He's not wrong about the whole ratings stuff tonight, especially after WWE flinched over Fyter Fest.

So glad this isn’t the main. A Jake Hager match is the cool down match

Well they’re still advertising Mox’s match next week despite the fact that it’s being taped tomorrow. So he’s possibly wresting a week after his wife’s COVID diagnosis.

Supposedly he’s tested negative late last week and will be tested again tomorrow before he is allowed into the building...but still.

Wardlow is built like a tank, far better looking, and just has a natural swagger to him. Hager is just an athletic dork.

Evil Vito 07-01-2020 09:03 PM

Was a big fan of Hager in 2010, his World Heavyweight Title run had a fun level of corniness to him. And for years I thought he was being underused. I last remember being into him for that feud against Rusev in either 2014 or 2015z

But he’s just....not interesting at all in the ring.

You’re definitely right. Other than Archer, Wardlow is probably the best big man they have.
