Mox is such a clown. Glad I missed that show



The Saraya era has come to an end in AEW. Her sex tape was booked better than this run. She certainly deserves a lot of the blame though.


Saraya did amazing!

Took a million or so (I assume) of the mark's money, barely worked, and put herself in a position to possibly return to WWE.

If you mean her actual in-ring work, my favorite was when she tried to do that World of Sport style stuff with Toni and they embarrassed themselves.


She has Endometriosis, so it’s difficult to plan anything long term with her. She most recently helped launch Harley, but yeah the women’s division has long passed Saraya by. I think she’d be great doing some kind of management/trainer stuff with WWE.

amplify,
We’re all marks, bro. Leave the tribalism at the door.

Edit: Incidentally, show was great last night. Fletcher and Brody beat the hell out of each other.


Big fan of Brody but sick of seeing him lose to everyone. I'm sure that match is setting him up to beat that other big guy but who cares about beating a dark level jabroni. Use others to enhance Kyle and others.

I feel the same, sucks to see him eat the pin all the time. The upside is that he still always feels like a credible threat no matter the W/L record.

Hopefully this shift from HoB to HoH will give him a push, but we’ll see. Brody is easily the best of the trio.

well amazing job then, never seen such talent.

I was referring to Tony. I do try to be respectful to the fans.


I see AEW is replicating the "early-00's HHH retains via interference" run with Moxley for far too long




Legitimately one of the best Dynamites ever.




In the AEW World Title Steel Cage Match tonight, the ref enforced a rope break during a submission (???) but also allowed a briefcase shot to the head - what!?

I can't recall ever seeing a rope break enforced in a cage match - it's no DQ!

Didn’t this happen in the womens 4-way as well? Shenanigans.


I just realized that Toni Storm is the modern day Golddust.
Probably coached by the man himself.


Why break up the Acclaimed to Jannety them both?

They made it look like Bowens was gonna get the push, but he jobs every week.


They finally put this on YouTube. One of the best tag matches ever:


Crowd is nuts tonight for Grand Slam Mexico.


I'm all for moving there permanently. Great arena and atmosphere.


My DVR didn’t pick it up for some reason but I ended up catching the end which I thought was the Mercedes match and what looked to be like a 40 minute over run. Did anyone’s DVR get this right?


They just keep dropping these banger full matches on YouTube. I honestly think there’s been a bit of a barrier to this stuff for more casual fans. The addition of Max and now this YouTube push has been great.

I think this match is one of the best examples of American style wrestling. Both guys do so well with the classic face/heel dynamic.


The hype is real.


They also dropped this mini-doc that has me crying over morning coffee.


If Hangman doesn't win I will find out where Moxley lives and go run him over with my Tucson. This has to end.


It would be great if Hangman won and we found out the briefcase was empty. Moxley sold the belt for hookers and blow months ago.

I'd rather see Osprey or Swerve take it off Mox though.
