I absolutely loved this Dynamite

One of my favorite wrestlers Adam Cole with a damn killer match. Man i'm such a big fan of his, so good.

MJF has to be the best heels in the business at the moment, the hatred the crowd had for him was palatable, he's so good on the Mic. The line about Pillman Sr and starts looking down to hell, the heat.....

I even liked Dan Lambert segment and wasnt to keen on his recent appearances but I think the fans won me over on this bit and plus they were terrific all the way through.

A good crowd can make or break a show at this point

Bryan Danielson challenges Kenny Omega, I just get goosebumps even thinking about this

Next week is seriously stacked, this is PPV quality and i'm only paying around 4 euro for this?????? God damn steal

Lithium93_ · 16-09-2021 7:46pm

I hope the Omega/Danielson match is free from shenanigans, just let the pair of them go for 15/20 minutes.

True but I would happily accept Okada or Ibushi shenanigans.

IF that happened, I'd be totally cool with it. Hell gimme a future hypothetical tag match of Okada/Danielson vs. Omega/Ibushi.

16-09-2021 8:42pm

Does anyone else think that Mark Sterling is a bit **** and he does nothing for Jade?

I was actually thinking a heel Mark Henry could be a good manger for her (just basically him from his hall of pain days but as manger) and I might be wrong but didn't he discover her?

The fact it’s not for the title makes me think Danielson is winning.

If it doesn’t go clean I would like to see hangman interfering to cost Omega. Good way to get hangman back into the title scene by enraging omega.

RollieFingers · 16-09-2021 9:03pm

Really good show, the cards for next week are so stacked, especially Danielson/Omega, love that. Ibushi and Okada are wrestling Ishii and EVIL respectively in the G1 on the 23rd and 24th.

Most of the non-wrestling stuff was great, the Danielson/Omega, Lambert and MJF segments especially. Also liked that Hobbs and Hook got into it with Punk, great chance to shine next week for Powerhouse. I likes Darby/Spears too, good match that had some history to play off of with a good angle post-match.

Also loved Archer rocking the Suzuki-gun gear. Did Davey Jr. resign with WWE that time? I can't remember but if not he could have showed up to help his Suzuki-gun brothers. You'd nearly wonder was everything around Kaze Ni Nare and the whole Suzuki incident really a big fcuk up like everyone said. It's all fits together for the story a little too nicely...

You might have a point. There's plenty of time for Danielson to win that Championship, once Hangman knocks Kenny off his perch.

Agent Coulson · 16-09-2021 9:15pm

1.175m number 1 show on cable.

Dynamite beat RAW again in the 18-49 demo.

16-09-2021 9:18pm

Putting the belt on Big E didn't work then

Agent Coulson · 16-09-2021 9:30pm

Next week being pretty much a PPV on TV Dynamite should be looking to break the 1.5m for the first time.

With maybe the most wanted dream match between two North American wrestlers in the last 10 years

titan18 · 16-09-2021 9:33pm

I could easily see Omega and Bryan going for a time limit draw. It's not something they usually do and you could easily have the two of them put on a classic and be both wrecked lying in the ring as the time runs out.

My hope is a returning Hangman though. Either Hangman interferes and Omega loses or Omega wins and then as he's celebrating, Hangman's music hits and he attacks Omega.

He's finally the hell away from MJF so I'll take it.

Agent Coulson · 16-09-2021 10:38pm

Two great cards next week.

Dynamite

Pillman Jr vs MJF

Black vs Rhodes

Sting & Allin vs FTR

Britt vs Ruby

Omega vs Danielson

Rampage

Cole & The Bucks vs Christian & Jurassic Express

Inner Circle vs Men of the Year

Punk vs Hobbs.

They could stack both Dark shows as well with the amount of talent on the books now.

Headshot · 16-09-2021 11:07pm

Isn't the Rampage a 2hr show so there's probably going to be a 2 more matches booked for that

riffmongous · 16-09-2021 11:26pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/117901782#Comment_117901782

Ppv quality card altogether. Isn't Miro going to have a match/squash soon too? Hope that will be on Rampage

Headshot · 16-09-2021 11:29pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/117901947#Comment_117901947

This Friday I believe and I suspect Sammy will get involved

Neil3030 · 17-09-2021 12:22am

I just saw the segment between Omega, Callis and Bryan. Excellent segment.

Where oh where have they hid this version of Omega for the last 2 years? When he drops the goofy dances/facials/suits etc he can actually give off convincing bad-ass charisma.

Good interview with Dan Lambert. I know he's been a bit love/hate with people so far in AEW but he was great in Impact a few years ago when he was there. I think he'll be a good traditional manager for someone down the line.

Agent Coulson · 17-09-2021 6:16am

A nice breakdown of the full two hours and what the viewers watched

Agent Coulson · 17-09-2021 8:14am

If I was Tony Khan I'd be thinking twice about making Flair All Elite anytime soon after this weeks Dark Side of the Ring

LineOfBeauty · 17-09-2021 9:35am

Thought the episode was electric from start to finish. I think the most notable thing about it was how many acts they have on this 2 hour show that are genuinely over with their fanbase. There's far more over than not and there's an energy to the show. A hot crowd helps and this was one of the hottest crowds they've had yet in AEW. A great episode in it's own right and a perfect set up to next week, for which I am absolutely buzzing.

Is Fite the best/cheapest/only way to subscribe in Ireland? I'm definitely gonna sign up to something before Arthur Ashe anyway.

As someone who fell out of love with wrestling for a long, long time (I've not been this invested much in things since the summer of Punk), the fire in my stomach is back burning again Bay Bay.

beakerjoe · 17-09-2021 1:40pm

Fire is the only option to watch Live. Its great value for money. Never any issues with Fite. I get Dynamite and Rampage weekly on tv, phone or tablet , yet to have any issues. Also got a free PPV last year via fite dollors that you earn from using the app. Well worth it.

ITV4 shows Dynamite on Friday.

CastorTroy · 17-09-2021 3:24pm

Maybe I'm just oblivious, but why was/is there a big deal being made about this Arthur Ashe stadium? For weeks now it was how people are looking forward to it and how something big will happen including Bryan's debut.

The Plane Ride from Hell? Man, the more I hear about that story the worse it seems. Had that happened today WWE would have had a huge controversy on their hands and Flair would undoubtedly be in a lot of trouble. I remember X-Pac talking about the Plane Ride from Hell it on one of his shoot interviews and he did mention Ric Flair walking around naked so I could definitely believe the flight attendants' story.

I think it's going to be their biggest ever crowd isn't it? Plus it's a famous stadium worldwide with the US Open having just been on.

Cherry_Cola · 17-09-2021 4:15pm

It's their first show in the New York market, and first show in a world class stadium that has never been used for wrestling before also. I just got tickets for the Thanksgiving Eve show in November now too, 4th row so spicy enough and that will be my AEW events wrapped for the year I think (will see about Full Gear).

Headshot · 17-09-2021 4:20pm

I cannot wait to see what Arthur Ashe stadium will be like for a wrestling event

Damn next week is going to rock

Agent Coulson · 17-09-2021 4:26pm

Picture a wrestling ring right in the middle it a perfect view from everywhere within the stadium.

RollieFingers · 17-09-2021 4:29pm

How could you be a fan of pro-wrestling and not be hyped about next weeks cards?

Danielson/Omega is obviously the jewel in the crown but that trios match looks really tasty, will be great to see Cole back with the Bucks. So many good matches coming our way, buzzing!

Pentecost · 17-09-2021 6:16pm

Did anyone spot the fan thumping Malaki Black on the back when he was in the crowd with Cody? Cody dragged him way away from that section straight away. Stupid man.

titan18 · 17-09-2021 6:21pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/117904549#Comment_117904549

Not sure it's ever been done before there for one. WWE have the MSG link, both are doing the UBS arena, both will have done Prudential Center so Arthur Ashe is something new. It's also their largest show ever by a decent amount.

Cherry_Cola · 17-09-2021 6:25pm

Interestling on the UBS arena shows also - AEWs presale did 4,000 tickets, and WWE's did just 700. Interesting to see the figures once today's numbers come in.

See on twitter it's some fella called grim, does grims toy show or something.

Pentecost · 17-09-2021 6:58pm

He looks like a wrong 'un but maybe it was all part of the show.

CastorTroy · 17-09-2021 8:06pm

Thanks for the info around Alan Ashe. I'm not exactly a sports fan so would know of the US Open but not where it happens but fair play to them for doing a show in a stadium that big.

campo · 17-09-2021 10:16pm

Tony Khan on Busted Open said he has another ace up his sleeve....Wyatt ever could he mean

Headshot · 17-09-2021 10:34pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/117906208#Comment_117906208

I call Adam Page

CastorTroy · 17-09-2021 10:40pm

Ace? Bully Ray confirmed!

titan18 · 17-09-2021 10:49pm

Could be Tanahashi too. I'd rather him than Wyatt.

Pentecost · 17-09-2021 11:00pm

He's poached Johnny Ace for talent relations.

Loved the massive pop for Cole's entrance on Wednesday!

Think it might be one of AEW's best themes so far as well.

Pentecost · 18-09-2021 1:33am

That crowd were on fire to be fair. One of the loudest ever for AEW or as much as I've seen of AEW anyway (18 months or so maybe). Right up there with the Chicago crowd for Punk's comeback.

Agent Coulson · 18-09-2021 6:59am

Added to Grand Slam Rampage

Anna Jay vs Penelope Ford

Lights Out Match Mox & Eddie vs Archer & Suzuki

The Lucha Bros & P & P vs. Private Party & The Butcher & The Blade

Agent Coulson · 18-09-2021 7:24am

A Sports business professor interviewed Meltzer has put a current market value of $400m on AEW.

https://twitter.com/davemeltzerwon/status/1438634227700953089?s=21

RollieFingers · 18-09-2021 11:28am

The Britt/Ruby segment on Rampage was great. It's an interesting one, does Ruby lose her first title shot and does Baker actually need the belt considering how over she is? I'd say champ retains, as long as the match delivers Ruby will be good.

Thought it was funny that the week it was reported that TK nixed the idea of a hair vs hair match between Britt and Rosa that we got a head shaving on the show!

Love that Mox & Eddie vs Suzuki-gun is lights out, should be some ultra-violence!

titan18 · 18-09-2021 12:05pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/117906907#Comment_117906907

The 6 matches that they have in 2 hours is going to be interesting. Jay Vs Ford should be short enough I'd say, that 4 v 4 won't be long either, and can't imagine we have any promo segments but Punk Vs Hobbs, Mox/Kingston Vs Archer/Suzuki and Cole/Bucks Vs Christian/JE are all matches that should get decent time. Jericho then generally has long matches even if it's unnecessary so be interesting how they time this.
