AEW - All Elite Wrestling (*Spoilers for Latest Show*)

Furious-Red

Anyone feel that they will eventually show it was Hangman that took out Nick Jackson? I know the Inner Circle are saying it was them but could be a good swerve

Hangman being the guy to bring in The Revival to take out TYB seems a logical move. Every singles star is affiliated with a tag team and it makes perfect sense as they can build multiman matches organically for Dynamite.

PAC has Lucha Bros
Cody has The Bucks and Dustin + QT
Kenny has The Bucks
MJF has Butcher and The Blade
Jericho has The Inner Circle
Brodie Lee has Dark Order

Hangman with Revival would leave Mox as the only singles guy without an alliance of sorts and that's the way it should be. He should feel different to everyone else

ive changed my mind do that

Agent Coulson

Mox and Darby walk their own paths and then come together depending on whose paths they both cross.

They've got a star on their hands and they're handling the build very well. Defo a Lone Wolf / makes his own rules kind of character (but not in a Moxley unhinged kind of way) is the way he seems headed.

True, but did they not just show them surrounding him?

Id love to see something play out like this (based on Hangman taking out Nick)
Page/Omega are in a match for the titles, during the match it shows Nick arriving to the arena(maybe still not 100%) where he is greeted by Matt/Cody where he is pissed off and looking for revenge and says it was Page who took him out etc. In the ring Page is on the apron and setting up the opponent for the double team with Omega but gets distracted with the tron, then turns around in confusion as Page just hits the Buckshot on Omega. The rest of the elite run to the ring and chases off Page, as the opponents cover Omega to be win the Tag Titles. Too unrealistic ha:pac:

I like that idea tbf

And they have teased Page turning on Omega when standing on the apron

I'm not sure they can turn him at this point. Something like he took out Nick cos he pissed him off in the PPV match but he doesn't give a sh1t what they think anyway.

He's gonna get cheered either way which might hurt the rest a bit if they do fully turn him

I think the only way to get him over as a heel would be to turn on Omega

beakerjoe

Id rather see Omega turn on Hangman. Turning Page heel would probably hurt him and hed be cheered anyway.

Decent Dynamite, very enteratining and well produced considering the circumstances. They got a lot of little things right production wise which WWE didnt. The repositioning of the hard camera, the wrestlers at ringside, etc.

I do agree that Harper and Hardys debuts would have been served better with a large audience.

Harper's reveal was a let down. He would have beem better suited to being paired with Jake, hed be a much more natural fit. The Dark Order is a pisspoor stable at the moment and the reveal was very hokey. That said Harper's a good talent with a point to prove. He can work as well as Taker in his prime and if he gets over he can be a hige asset.

Hardys a great creative mind, and hes in great shape for his age. If used correctly, which I believe he will, he can be a great addition.

He will get a babyface reaction if he turns on Kenny.

Id be cheering that. Hes too over to be heel currently and why try ruin a good thing. Hes getting great reactions, he's breaking out ss their top face.

Shane-O Mac would still jump off it.

Agent Coulson

Blood and Guts postponed to a later date Dynamite will continue next week with Jericho confronting Matt Hardy.

grames_bond

Matt Hardys first couple of matches should be from the Hardy compound- shows off his creativity and doesn't need a crowd - perfect timing and sure to create buzz!

Hardys a decent wrestler, plus a fine creative mind and I do believe he has plenty to offer AEW. However I dont yern for too much of the House Hardy buisness. It was fun and fresh in TNA and I feel the well had ran dry by the time it made it to WWE.

Maybe WWE didnt get the best out of the gimmick, but i believe the battles in the compound segments jumped the shark by the time he feuded with Bray Wyatt as well.

I dont mind the character of Broken Matt Hardy and he can be an asset to AEW, but I dont wanna see any segments filmed at Matts house

This character almost exclusively works at the Hardy compound. He said himself in the Jericho interview on Friday that the problem in WWE was they just had him in the arena. I don't think there's huge mileage left in it, but whatever it is, it's at house Hardy.

Without Vanguard One, Senor Bejamin, Reby, King Maxel, the lake of reincarnation, etc, what is it? Matt Hardy in his mid 40's doing low impact matches and shouting delete? No thanks.

Adiboo

Quite enjoyed Cody on commentary there.

Urmmm.... OK.....

Jericho doing a promo with a drone is a classic moment

The matt teleporting was super goofy, loved it

Hammer of the Clods

AEW are dealing with the virus lockdown a lot better than WWE. Just by having a few people in the locker room reacting to what's happening in the ring adds a lot of atmosphere (or so I thought).

The match between Kenny and Sammy was very good. It was just a shame the ending was so bad.

I can only assume that of the buzz around Broken Matt Hardy is ironic. Thought the drone business was bad enough, but the transporting around the arena was pure, unfiltered, wrestlecrap. Jericho's head jerking all over the place.

I don't mind this kind of stuff generally, Boogeyman eating worms, or Hornswoggle living under the ring. But for the most part it's mid card filler, a bit of something to have a laught at and move on. It's not usually one of the main storylines!

sky88

I liked it the drone and Jericho but with was just meh and the character just doesn’t work for me anymore


Looks like they may have taped some stuff by Cody’s tweet saying last 2 days

Agent Coulson

I think what is helping the AEW shows at the moment with no crowds is that most of the talent are well used to wrestling in front of very small crowds even handfuls of people and put on solid matches from the indy scene.
