Sad thing is that AEW would waste Io even more than WWE are doing with how they treat their women's division.

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/119378832#Comment_119378832

Completely agree. I keep thinking one of these signings will change the fortunes of the division but it'll probably just stay the same unfortunately. Khan is making the signings I want to see but the booking of the womens division is still ****. The baddies Vs Athena/Statlander another example of that. I wanted Athena signed but that feud is just dragging at this stage.

Don't know how long they've been doing this for but the womens match now on Dynamite is always the match before the main event. Mix it up a bit and have them open the show some weeks when the crowd is at its hottest.

Omega did an interview with Sapp right before forbidden door where he was talking down Ospreay, it's up on YouTube.. I think he's a bit jealous of his progression, even if it is a work. Hopefully we get that match at the next forbidden door ppv.

The American Dragon Bryan Danielson vs. Red Death Daniel Garcia announced for next weeks Dynamite.

Great match for Danielson's comeback.

The Page/Ruffin match scheduled for Rampage this week is likely due to the crowd reaction to their Elevation match.

Please no

Furious-Red

Pac vs Lj Cleary will be on dark this week.

CastorTroy

The Renegades are appearing a lot these days. They really need to work on their Twin Magic though considering they wear different clothes and as seen this week, different hairstyles.

Agent Coulson

PAC vs. LJ Cleary was good and the OTT crowd was great.

CastorTroy

Seems someone messed up the scheduling of a couple of matches with the formation of The Trustbusters, even though we saw them at Death Before Dishonor and this week's Elevation. Which also makes the card saying Slim J was making his AEW debut wrong as well.

Agent Coulson

Tony tied them down to long term deals.

J. Marston

What if they asked to be released? Benevolent, lovable Tony Khan wouldn't imprison these independent contractors, would he?

CastorTroy

Are they independent contractors? I thought that was a WWE thing.

J. Marston

Don't loads of them take indie bookings? What are they then?

Pretty sure they are still independent contractors but tony has said they will have their medical bills covered if they are injured on AEW’s time.

CastorTroy

I thought they were treated as full employees with the option to take dates elsewhere if they want. So they had the rights independent contractors wouldn't have.

On another note, I know it's been said Tony needs to offload some of his work so was just thinking which parts should he hand off and who would you suggest? Creative?

hynesie08

If they are independent contractors they're doing it wrong, the likes of Dante martin and Anna jay(a.s) should be working 3-4 times a week anywhere that'll book them, so obviously there's some sort of vetting process for companies looking to book AEW talent.

Lord TSC

Awesome episode of Dynamite, and felt like a concentrated effort to push their own guys big time.

Starks, Hobbs, Garcia al, came out massively elevated. Jungle Boys promo was gold. Rush looked a bad ass. Teasing reconciliation with Bucks and Hangman.

Awesome, awesome show.

RollieFingers

That was a cracking episode of Dynamite, really is great to have weekly pro-wrestling from the US again that is watchable for people over the age of twelve. IMPACT is decent too to be fair!

Good to have AmDrag, loved the main event, huge win for Garcia.

Everything from Starks winning to losing to Hook and the Hobbs turn was gold, surely the start of a huge face push for Absolute.

Very cool to hear her music and see Miyu Yamashita on Dynamite having watched her the last few years in TJPW.

Will the Bucks team with Hangman or Omega for the tournament?

The belts look slick, the too many belts crew obviously won't be happy but there is serious potential for greatness in this tournament with the trios that could be involved!

J. Marston

Another week, another notch on his forehead. Blood is supposed to be shocking but Moxley is singlehandedly making it mundane.

Starks lost to a meme. He didn't come out of that looking good. It makes sense for Hobbs to get his long overdue push by thinking "Enough of this waster..." and turning on him. Hope he wins this feud or just spinebusters Hook 40 times and says "See? Easy." to Starks.

ThePott

Best Dynamite in a while for me.

Starks has always been money and looks like they're going to cash in. Hobbs has great potential as a monster heel too. Face Ricky/Heel Hobbs could be amazing.

The trios titles were announced so abruptly but guess this means Omega is back soon and can for sure see Omega/Bucks and Hangman/Dark Order match. Might be a great chance to tease out the friction between The Elite and some reconciliation between the Bucks and Hangman. While there's definitely a lot of titles in AEW as is (keep that ROH sh1t away please) if they're put on a top faction that will get time anyway there shouldn't be a problem.

Jungleboy did a good promo too, definitely the coolest he's looked. Garcia winning was a nice surprise, think there may be some issues brewing between Bryan and the BCC.

All in all, strong Dynamite.

Lord TSC

RE: Bryan and the BCC.

All of the BCC have gold now. Except Bryan.

Bryan comes back from injury, and loses to Garcia. And not meaning to slight Garcia, it wasn't even he lost to their leader. He lost to their young lion.

It sets up brilliant conflict in the BCC, where Bryan is seen as a weak link. That, despite Regal always billing Bryan as the perfect wrestler, like he's the crown jewel of the group.

Its solid.

Agent Coulson

Now that was a fantastic 2 hours of wrestling from start to finish.
