    At least they finally dropped the "interim" part of the women's title.



  • Registered Users Posts: 28,794 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    I missed the mention on the show but just read that Toni's reign will retroactively have the "interim" removed as well.

    Mod hat on

    Cut this out, now. You’ve wandered into the thread and seem more interested in picking personal fights with posters than with actually discussing the product. Stop this line of discussion, or it will be a thread ban pretty quick.


    Cleaning up the last few posts with some deletions of stupid, childish bickering.


    EDIT: and in case it’s not obvious, don’t try and get into fights with a mod with replies.


    Now, back to our regularly scheduled programming….

    That Trio's match had me in stitches

    You know I absolutely adore the commentary team on AEW, they always make me laugh

    Case in point Tazz being confused on how can Daddy S scissor Daddy S

    Brilliant

    Loved it, funny seeing people get worked up about it!

    Nice to see Starks get the win too. Another very enjoyable Dynamite.

    I don't mind Kenny because he can back it up when not getting dragged down by such "funny" antics, but the Bucks are the epitomy of taking very little and making it somehow.

    Yes I've been absolutely triggered, don't give a ****.

    And the turn finally happens. Was wondering if they would go as far as attacking -1, but knew they wouldn't.

    I missed it happening but there were reports of Dante Martin possibly being injured in the match but Anthony Bowens tweeted yesterday that he's okay. He did seem to be laying down a lot unless he was needed up.

    Was Claudio seriously getting "What?" shouts?

    I think actually attacking a child on television would probably not be well received. Even though I'm sure Brodie Jr himself would have been well up for it.

    Andrade tore his pec a few months back and had the same surgery as Cody so he is going to be out for at least 9 months guessing that explains why he hasn't been on TV.



  • Registered Users Posts: 8,378 ✭✭✭Riddle101


    So does that mean the suspension isn't real and the backstage altercation between him and Sammy wasn't true?



  • Registered Users Posts: 9,688 ✭✭✭hynesie08



    Maybe he tore it swinging for Sammy, or Sammy is a world class shooter who twisted it like a pretzel till he heard it rip.

    Elevation this week had Don Callis seemingly scouting Takeshita.

    I was expecting it. Now will he be used? Tony needs to sit down and figure out how to use all the guys he has signed.

    On another note I was randomly thinking about when AEW started and they had a list of things they would go by in the company. But trying to remember what they are and if they've stuck to them.

    I know one was about no invisible cameras like in WWE when people are talking Backstage as if there are no cameras watching them. I think they've stuck with that.

    Another was that wins and losses and rankings matter. Think it's safe to say they haven't stuck with that. Only time they really matter is in title matches or the tournaments or Battle Royals.

    What were the other rules they had?

    MJF is just pure gold, Jesus AEW creative move fast



  • Registered Users Posts: 60,285 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    Dax is having one hell of a 2022 in singles matches as well as being one half of the best tag team in the world he has come a long way from having his back shaved on TV.


    Death Triangle vs. The Elite are just 6 of the best doing what they do at such a high level.

    Dax is having one hell of a 2022 in singles matches

    Doesn't he lose every single one? Pointless spectacle.

    The Regal/MJF stuff is scatter-brained. Heel turn on PPV to join together, that's fine. Then MJF isn't even on the post-PPV dynamite, just Regal saying he'll be here next week. Then another turn the next week.

    It's combining the worst WWE habit of "Tune in next week for the stuff you actually want to see!" and TNA's turn/turn/turn booking.

    Willow seems really over going by the reaction she gets.

    Regals contract expiring imminently and rumours he is going to go back to wwe which would explain last nights events.



  • Registered Users Posts: 28,794 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Ambulance pulls into WWE backstage and Regal and Bryan get out.



  • Registered Users Posts: 3,842 ✭✭✭Pentecost


    It is in keeping with his character for MJF to get rid of Regal after he has no more use for him, and to still have resentment towards him though. He wasn't on Dynamite because they had to work around his filming schedule. It was better to wait a week for a live promo.



  • Registered Users Posts: 3,048 ✭✭✭ThePott


    Not gonna argue with a lot of what you've said (agree that Dax outside of AEW perhaps has had a great year) but the whole REAL Pro wrestling thing is such nonsense. It's a total marketing gimmick from AEW that so many people fall hook line and sinker for it that just leads to an endless string of No True Scotsman arguments.

    Mod note

    two posts deleted, one poster warned. The bickering is just ultra childish. I’m not sure how much more often I’m going to keep saying “stop being immature children bitching at each other” before I just start handing out bans with zero tolerance, for initiators or responders….



  • Registered Users Posts: 53,846 ✭✭✭✭Headshot


    I could just watch The Elite v Death Triangle forever

    At least people watched Dax getting his back shaved on tv. Dynamite with a stinker of a rating this week.

    Not the best start for MJF’s title reign or The Elite comeback. Was Punk the main draw after all?

    What's Regal's status? I'm reading conflicting reports that he has (a) signed a three-year deal, but that (b) he will soon return to WWE?
