Happy for Scorpio Sky but the whole “he hasn’t lost in a year” stuff just highlights why building up wins on YouTube instead of TV Madge’ makes the guys who do it look underwhelming. Last thing of note I remember from Sky was eating the pin against Darby and Sting in Vegas last year. Which was fine. And it’s good that they’ve built him back up via singles but they could’ve given him at least a as tv match or two a month in the last year to show what he’s been doing. Would’ve made both him getting a title shot and winning it feel like he deserved it instead of it being a complete shock.
Maybe the shock factor is what they were going for. And I think he’ll hold it for a bit as next week Wardlow probably gets the shaft from MJF and gets “fired” till double or nothing. |

I think MJF costs Wardlow the match next week... MJF and Wardlow is gonna be the feud, seems unnecessary for Wardlow to be the TNT Champ during it I think!
Better to not take the title off of Sky after 1 week also... and good move to put the title on Sky now, him being a heel is a better opponent for Wardlow if u want the crowd to be behind Wardlow big time in the match |

Wardlow and MJF don’t need a title for that feud. I think MJF is absolutely the next guy. And Wardlow will be in a position to chase after him for it.

More and more people seem to be pointing out the similarities between this one and others that have struggled for attention.

Jeff's brother is getting the absolute shit stomped out of him, but he still takes time to do his little dance shit on the way to the ring. Amazing. |

What reason did they give people to cheer Matt Hardy? He’s been a dickhead for the longest time.

the rest of the AHFO turned on him and joined up with andrade, then darby & sting and jeff came out for the save. was definitely more about who was helping him than matt himself.

Its not terribly uncommon for a guy to get cheered just because heels turn on him. Not everyone needs months of build up for a turn, and if theres one guy I dont need that kind of story telling for, its matt hardy.

Regal mentioning the word rogue in his promo made me realize that I really want his stable to be called the Rogues Gallery

Can't wait for Regal to announce the next "Blood and Guts" match.

Regal issued an apology to the roster for his promo running longer than planned last night. He got caught up in the emotions of the moment, but the second half of the show had to be rushed around a little bit as a result.

Fun episode. Felt like a bit of a reset with stables changing members, turns and debuts.
Nice @ Jeff Hardy. Adding the Hardy Boys to the tag division seems like a solid move and is much better for Matt than everything he’s done up to now. Kinda hope it’s not stretched out for too long though to the point where they break up and feud against one another. Don’t really wanna see either individually. I like how Darby and Sting are just these mega faces that come to anyones aid. Smart to use them here though so everyone knew Jeff was coming in to make a face save as not sure many would even cheer Matt Hardy getting saved. Jericho turning heel should be good, he was great at the start of AEW, so hopefully can be that good again. 2.0 and Garcia are so boring though. Hopefully he at least helps them improve. Oh no @ Adam Cole still going after Hangman. Was hoping for Miro, Black or even Punk for his next challenger. Don’t really care about Scorpio but he’s better than Sammy and at least should give Lambert more mic time. Hopefully Sammy can leave TV for a bit and enjoy banging Tay. |

Oh ya Regal promo was good. Not sure what direction they’ll go with Mox and Danielson and who they’ll even feud against who will even give the idea they could beat them. Only option I can think of would be Bucks or House of Black.
Maybe they should try and recruit Punk but he turns them down and so they beat on him? He can then get Darby and Sting in to have his back. Mox & Danielson w/Regal vs Punk & Darby w/Sting |

Oh damn. Swerve Strickland is Killshot from Lucha Underground? That’s a new signing I can get behind. Seems to have added a bit more personality too.

I didn't know Swerve was Killshot, cool.
Hopefully the Cole/Hangman rematch is on TV not PPV. |

I'd be stunned if it was tbh. 3 more months is a long time to drag this out. I see Hangman beating Cole on TV and then being jumped by his next feud. Fingers crossed for Miro personally but I also don't know if I want Miro coming back into a feud he might lose. Depends on how long they want Hangman to be champ.
Whether it's on PPV or TV I absolutely think a heel Jericho is gonna get a match with Hangman at some point. Jericho beat him to become the inaugural champ nearly 3 years ago which kinda set Hangman's entire story arc in motion. Makes sense for Jericho to put him over. As for Cole I have to think Omega will be back by May. Either a Cole/Omega match or an Elite/UE trios match at DoN. |

I think heel jericho is the best option for page's next oppopent. Meanwhile, bring back Miro and have him destroy everybody. Page beats Jericho, so his arc comes full circle. Then he drops it to Miro.

Same, that's when he started getting super over. Feels like they "can't do that" again though because of Moxley going to rehab

I'm not at all certain that Miro can "carry" the AEW Championship and live up to the match quality we've come to expect from an AEW PPV main event. I mean, I'm quite certain he can't do that.

He doesnt need to have meltzer sploog covered, 7 star matches. The idea is that hes a monster champion. An impassable wall the challenger has to overcome to be champion. Its a dynamic we havent seen in the AEW title picture.
He may not be capable of having a technical classic, but I fully believe that he is capable of consistently having matches that tell a good story, and thats whats important. |

Especially when you’ve got multiple 20+ minute barnburners before the main event, it would be good to have something more story driven and not just two more guys aiming to have a 5 star match.
