i felt like that ending was so fucking bad that it almost seemed like an homage/parody of another exploding death match from a long time ago with a lackluster ending, but then they had to sell it like it literally killed. hilariously shit ending to a whatever main event

Prob'ly something from Wrestling Society X. They did explodey rings and "electric" ropes and overly gimmicked weapons for about the six episodes they existed. I think Kenny was one of the guys in it, too (I vaugely remember Raven and X-Pac), so I wouldn't be surprised if it were a callback to that.

I don't blame TK for being "sensory inclusive" with pyro and shit, but god man for one night you had to let that shit go and just say "Hey this shit is going to be loud as hell so here's your warning."

Outside of that lame show closing ending, Revolution was a very entertaining show overall.

If it wasn't for the last couple minutes of the Exploding deathmatch and the wet fart of a ending to the show, that match would have been my favorite of the night. Currently leaning towards the Street Fight instead.

They could've easily saved it by having Omega and co come back out laughing their asses off and Eddie looking bewildered at not being blown to bits with Callas saying they ribbed us all. That's a helluva lot to ask for on the fly but damn theyshould've called some sorry of audible

Yeah that really needed an audible called assuming that was a badly botched pyro spot.

Think the landmine barbed wire spot on the floor might have also been botched as well since the explosions looked a bit off when it happened. I'd assume the explosions were meant to happen on both sides and not just a single side.

I wasn't that into the main event in the first place. They pussed out and went half way with everything. The wrapped the ropes instead of removing and replacing with barbed wire. They used fake barbed wire on the boards on the outside and maybe on the ropes as well. The boards in the ring seemed legit though. The explosions themselves were quite shit the whole way through anyway which is honestly why they shouldn't have done them in the first place. This is the first time AEW has dreadfully failed and they did so in such a big and embarrassing way. This definitely reminds me of the WCW Chamber of Horrors Match where Abdullah and Cactus had a dumb shit ending and honestly that was even better than this. This made everyone look bad especially Eddie Kingston and the commentary team who had to attempt to sell it, even though JR couldn't even muster the strength to which for once I totally understand.

The explosions themselves were quite shit the whole way through anyway which is honestly why they shouldn't have done them in the first place. This is the first time AEW has dreadfully failed and they did so in such a big and embarrassing way. This definitely reminds me of the WCW Chamber of Horrors Match where Abdullah and Cactus had a dumb shit ending and honestly that was even better than this. This made everyone look bad especially Eddie Kingston and the commentary team who had to attempt to sell it, even though JR couldn't even muster the strength to which for once I totally understand.
They were never going to go full FMW with that match both for legal and timing reasons.

Street Fight itself didn't go on long enough to do a proper FMW style setup anyways.

Yeah, like I said, the story is no longer about how it was a great show with tons of matches that delivered, it's a show that will always be known for a huge fuck-up at the end.

People who have watched and mostly enjoyed AEW (including a lot of this board) know it's a fuck-up but got enough out of the show/the product as a whole to happily continue watching Wednesday. The core fanbase isn't going away.

But anyone who came into this show on the fence? They're gone. That's how bad the ending was, the kind of thing that can single-handedly actively get people to turn away. And of course it's also endless ammo to the anti-AEW crowd.

I've been skipping Dynamite and skimming episodes on demand since Omega took the belt. It's certainly not to the level of trash WWE is at, which I don't even read the results of anymore. But this PPV was easily the worst that I've seen from them. Sure the tag title match was good, the street fight was cool and the battle royal was a big surprise but compared to the rest of the best we've seen from AEW this was a pretty low standard on all accounts. Take it from someone on the fence. This show did no favors.

Also while I don't watch Japanese Deathmatches any longer and have zero interest in them. I did have a phase when I was like 13 or so where I traded tapes and got ahold of all the classics from Big Japan, IWA and FMW. With the Onita praise AEW did I had pretty high and brutal expectations for this main event tonight. And the thing is with these death matches, they look brutal, but it's all superficial. They didn't even go that far with this one, they had gimmicked barbed wire through half the spots. When Mox got up from the DDT off the apron I was thoroughly slighted that he didn't have blood pouring from his back. Call me a savage but if they say Exploding Barbed Wire Death Match, I want a fucking serious ass death match. Hell TNA got the barbed wire massacare right every time.

To each their own, I actually enjoyed the hell out of most of this show. Ending aside I actually felt like the ladder match was my low point, the energy was just really off during that one, though I'm glad Sky won.

They've already announced stuff for Dynamite that intrigues me. Sky/Darby should be good, I hope to see Jericho get chucked out of the Inner Circle, and the eventual Bucks/Death Triangle match is gonna be a can't-miss.

That said, despite really liking the show I do think it was a step down from other AEW PPVs because the bar was set so high. Knowing that Double or Nothing will be in Daily's Place probably with restricted crowd still (for the best, but still) kinda sucks. I miss pre-pandemic wrestling and hope that by All In everyone's back on the road and every promotion has a lively crowd of people who have been waiting a year to go to shows.

That too. But I still wouldn't put it past them to do something intentionally bad because it was "funny".

Sucked either way, so arguing about it is moot.

Damn man... they really f*cked that up... feel bad for Kingston and Moxley having to act like they were in a brutal explosion... feel bad for Omega @ this kinda "ruining the match"

Wonder what the explanation is, like they "weren't allowed to have that big of an explosion" or something? Or a bunch of them didn't go off or whatever... hopefully that wasn't the actual explosion they had planned.........

The tag team battle royal was prob my favorite match on the show tbh... almost everything else was kinda disappointing :-(

Main event was cool but the Good Brothers shit sucked dick and of course the "explosions"...

Sting match was pretty good also

I agree, I went in with low expectations for that match, but it ended up being really fun and probably my favorite of the night as well.
