AEW Fight for the Fallen - 7/15/20
 
https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikiped...020_Poster.jpg

AEW World Championship
Jon Moxley © vs. Brian Cage


AEW TNT Championship
Cody © vs. Sonny Kiss


FTR vs. The Lucha Brothers


The Elite (Kenny Omega, Matt Jackson and Nick Jackson) vs. Jurassic Express


The Nightmare Sisters (Allie and Brandi Rhodes) vs. TBA

Evil Vito 07-15-2020 04:32 PM

All of the men's matches have great potential. Hoping Mox/Cage can deliver a fun brawl after the dull affair that was his match against Hager.

I can get behind Cody's open challenges as an every other week thing, but don't want to see it every week since AEW's got a pretty big roster to showcase. It's been two weeks since his last defense so I hope he keeps it up. All told I'm not all that familiar with Sonny Kiss' work since he's mostly been working Dark or tag matches so I'm keen to see this one.

FTR/Luchas has the potential to be amazing since both teams are brilliant in completely different ways.

6-man tag will be chaotic fun.

Brandi Rhodes is pretty awful in the ring so I don't have high hopes for that one regardless of opponents. But hey Brandi and Allie in ring gear is at least something nice to look at.

Fignuts 07-15-2020 05:19 PM

Gonna watch FTR vs Lucha Bros. and Cage vs Moxley. Not much interest in anything else.

Mox’s reign hasn’t been great in terms of match quality. The Hager match in particular was pretty brutal to sit through. Cage is more versatile than anyone else he’s faced so far, so hopefully they get a good result.

Mr. Nerfect 07-15-2020 06:18 PM

They are really trying to sabotage Moxley and FTR aren't they?

Mr. Nerfect 07-15-2020 06:21 PM

How smart are The Bucks? I get different accounts of them either being cunning as foxes or completely oblivious. They bring in FTR and FTR are almost immediately iced. They do bullshit WWE entertainment stuff and lose in their first big match (The Bucks took the pin though, so it's all good, wink, wink). Then they book themselves to team with Kenny Omega against Marko Stunt, which has just enough of a "we're going to be working with Jungle Boy & Luchasaurus" guise that they can justify it. Omega is going to do a bunch of ridiculous things with Stunt. You just know it. But it won't be The Bucks, wink, wink, and they'll probably win, wink, wink.

I swear they are trying to make FTR look fucking ridiculous for trying to be serious tag wrestlers in their promotion because they are threatened by their critical plaudits.

slik 07-15-2020 07:16 PM

rooting for mox to lose the title tonight or at ALL OUT

Evil Vito 07-15-2020 07:18 PM

I think Mox will retain and get jumped by MJF and Wardlow

xrodmuc316 07-15-2020 07:21 PM

Cody just sent out that the TNT Title match is opening the show.

Fignuts 07-15-2020 07:31 PM

Cody has honestly been the most consistently great wrestler in the company, and does a better job of emotionally connecting to the audience than anyone else.

It will be an interesting to see if he can deliver in a match with a joke character like Sonny. Especially in an empty arena match.

teamXtremist 07-15-2020 07:38 PM

This should be goood... lets gooo

Not sure I'd consider Sonny to be a joke character although to be fair, he hasn't really gotten to show much in AEW.

In Lucha Underground, his character wasn't that deep compared to notable others but also was not really in the same realm as a comedic wrestler or some random one-note wrestler.

Mr. Nerfect 07-15-2020 07:50 PM

Apparently they've switched The Elite vs. JB and His Losers to a Tag Title Match. Haha, AEW getting rattled by those numbers and realizing that more comedy bullshit might not be the way to go. If they do that, I can see them switching the belts to hot-shot things along.

Mr. Nerfect 07-15-2020 07:51 PM

Also possible it's just AEW running a sloppy shop.

Emperor Smeat 07-15-2020 08:13 PM

Lot more masks in the crowd for this week's show. Not sure if that's a good sign or not considering Florida's handling of the coronavirus and what happened in WWE when they suddenly started going all in for masks.

TNT title match was pretty good overall.

Ouch at Sonny's head. Seems like nobody in AEW really knows how to take that move without landing right on their head.

Damian Rey 2.0 07-15-2020 08:17 PM

Solid match. Not great. Sonny looked good but it didn't go at the pace i thought. Solid outing tho.

I honestly wouldn't be mad at a full show of Cody wrestling 5 or 6 different matches.

Decent match, looking forward to the turn and eventual Horsemen 2020.

Bad News Gertner 07-15-2020 08:20 PM

why the hell did Cody and Sonny go so long?

Emperor Smeat 07-15-2020 08:20 PM

This Fight for the Fallen theme sounds like something I've heard before outside of AEW. Like it being influenced by an old Linkin Park song.

Lmao Spears should be the lamb sent to slaughter. Have Tully turn on him with FTR, Cody and whoever they add as the 4th member. Give him a babyface run to feed him to the new heels and move on.

Yeah, that did get annoying at times.

They probably didn't care that the crowd mics were too hot or put them all too close to the small group of people in the upper levels.
