MJF so "despicable".... dis a lot better in this match at playing the "coward" too... thought he was missing that vs Jericho.... should not be a guy who is taken as a "legit talented rassler" who can win "clean".... He did win kinda clean here, but after menacing Julia and "emotionally provoking" Pillman....

Another banger of a show. Kinda over the CM Punk promo on every show but I do feel its building to a heel/tweener turn so I'm ok with it for now.

You will not be able to convince me that at least like 77% of Darby's success is that he looks like Jesse Pinkman and people want to root for Jesse to have a happier ending and win a fight for once.

This weeks show was good imo. Not as good as some of the recent episodes though.
Bryan/Omega was an incredible match. But I hate that it ended in the time limit draw. I know it was the right call but damnit it's a non title match and Bryans first match and I really wish he would have won. Have The Elite interference end up distracting Kenny too much and Bryan to get a quick pin. Something. Feud continues either way. Like I said I know the draw was the right call (I went in dreading that it was gonna be a DQ ending, especially when it went on first) but man I really wanted a good finish. Disclaimer: I was never a huge CM Punk fan back in the day. His mic work was excellent but his matches kinda bored me. Since he's been back his one match was a really good one imo, especially for a guy who hasn't gone in 7 years. His mic work is still great. BUT. I am over him getting an interview every week. They are starting to get that samey feel to them. When I looked at tonights line up and saw the CM Punk promo segment listed I kinda was like uhg. Do something different with him. Please. Do a promo segment with the people he is feuding with. SOMETHING. It was still a good promo and his delivery was fine, but I've just heard it before. This was the low part of the show for me. Don't have much to say about MJF/Pillman. It was what I expected. Pillman is still a little green but he's improving fast and has a bright future. MJF still the best heel in the business. I enjoyed this segment. FTR vs Sting/Darby was good shit. I've mentioned before that Darby got a horrible reaction early on in AEW when I went to the original fyter fest. It has been amazing watching him turn that reaction into being one of the most over guys out there in 2 years. He is on fire. I think r/n I probably enjoy his matches more than anyone else. Also amazing seeing Sting still go. Wouldn't have believed he could perform at this level at his age unless I had seen it myself. FTR is a good team. Always put on the good matches and tonight was no different. Kinda wish they had won though but Darby needs to keep on winning after the loss to Punk. Codys back. Uhg. Why does he still have that tattoo? Awful. Was a good match though. lol @ Brandi going wild. Awkward stuff with Arn, glad he didn't get hurt there. He's getting up there, gotta be more careful. Mallacop Blart is the shit. Loved him when he was in NXT, still loved him when WWE ruined him, still love him now. One of my favorites over the last few years. I'm also a fan of all the macabre/occult gimmicks which make me love him even more. Stoked he went over. Wish the finish was him kicking stardust in the head so hard that his tattoo flew off his neck though. The Dr. and Ruby. Loved Rubys look tonight. Probably the best gear she has ever had tbh. She has so much energy and charisma; shame WWE never let her really show it. Knew there was no way Britt was losing the title tonight (she should never lose it ever), so I figured her jezebels interfering was coming. Glad it didn't end with the DQ though, would have been very WWE to end the 2 biggest matches in one show with non-finishes. AEW has been better about not using the non-finish too much so far, and I hope they never lean into it. I imagine Lock Jaw is super stoked to end the night in Britts mouth. Overall a good show. The non-finish in the opener kinda bummed me a bit, as did the CM Punk promo. Cody being there brought it down a little bit too. These reasons, mostly Punk and Cody, are why I didn't like this weeks ep as much as some of the recent ones. Just felt like a step back; a very very small step though. |

Would like for Cody to say something smart to heel Punk in the future and just have Punk turn around and be like "Shut up Stardust" and walk off. Maybe give him the finger as he walks away without looking back.

Back home... almost def got COVID-19... could feel every1's hot breath on me...
Show was sweet, esp the Omega vs. Danielson match during which the crowd was freaking insane... My main "criticism" is I wish there were more talking and storyline segments instead of it being like a PPV where it's just match after match... didn't even let MJF talk to shit on Queens and get more heat |

They were quietest during the Jericho/Hager vs. Men of the Year match definitely... but feel like some of that is because they didn't put any of the match up on the big screens... feel like that always happens at wrestling shows... they always just forget to put the match up on the screen at some point during the show |

One of my favorite moments of the night was just how well worked out that Sting & Darby Allin v FTR match was. It felts like classic tag tropes but they worked so naturally. The build up was so f'n good.
Rewatching the show on tv now. If you guys could have seen the congestion and lines at merch and food stands. Insane. 40 minute was minimum from what I could tell. Pretty brutal. |

I didn't eat because the lines were ridiculous and the halls were sometimes at a stand still there were so many people.
