We're definetely still getting the Danielson match, hopefully at WK. ZSJ is great, love his post match rants!

29-06-2022 11:02pm

Alan "5" Angels has confirmed his contract is expiring and he's finishing up with AEW.

I'll give Khan credit, he's not renewing the contracts of people I wouldn't have re-signed.

Swole, Marko, Janela, Jack Evans. The only one I was a fan of was Stu Grayson.

You have to think that the dark order will be winding down soon.

Lord TSC · 30-06-2022 1:01am

In A,Erica so getting to watch Blood and Guts live.

curious to see if it’s as painful to watch with commercials as Raw is usually 😂

Lord TSC · 30-06-2022 1:30am

FTR and Danhausen vs Acclaimed and the Ass Boys is literally my perfect match up 😂

Cherry_Cola · 30-06-2022 1:58am

Production values are great this week. Little Caesars is a great arena.

Nice development of stories too.

campo · 30-06-2022 3:04am

Did anyone else catch Kingston ask were they on a break when on top of the cage?

overall very enjoyable dynamite.

Lord TSC · 30-06-2022 3:10am

Enjoyed that. The time absolutely flew by. Especially since one match went a full hour. Ending continues Eddie vs Jericho but also sets up Eddie vs Claudio as well. Don’t think it was a mind blowing match but it was a solid, fun one.

Cherry_Cola · 30-06-2022 3:41am

Mad to see a skewer spot on national TV even if Mox did hit them a little too hard haha.

Also TSC since you're in the States, if you happen to collect the figures at all - Target has all the WWE Legends and AEW Unrivaled figures on sale for a tenner a pop. Legends series isn't sold outside of Target and some good ones in the current line up if you're into that.

Davy05 · 30-06-2022 12:29pm

When I heard Luchasaurus' new theme I honestly thought Christian was introducing Kane.. now that would have been one hell of a heel turn ha

Headshot · 30-06-2022 1:56pm

Alan Angels is gone

Not that pushed tbh.

I was in one yesterday, but all they had was an Anna Jay figure, and no WWE ones 😭

Kane does stand alongside Christians in fairness so it's an easy mistake to make haha

Headshot · 30-06-2022 4:06pm

AEW not having much luck at present, besides the injuries, they also have talent out with Covid.

J. Marston · 30-06-2022 4:51pm

Don't care if Jane is Cassidy's "official" indie theme, Where is my Mind is an infinitely better theme.

CastorTroy · 30-06-2022 6:24pm

Did something happen with Jericho or Kingston when they got up top as it seemed they just stopped and waited for Sammy to come up and do something.

Again they did the same thing they did last time where once the guys went up top, they completely forgot there was still a match happening down below.

Personality wise, Claudio doesn't seem to fit in with the rest of BCC. Seems more jovial and willing to play to the crowd.

Have to say, Danhausen's size is deceptive. Seeing him on tv, you wouldn't think he's 6'7" and over 300lbs. Is Hook injured?

RollieFingers · 30-06-2022 6:42pm

Some crimson mask on Angelo, Blood and Guts definitely lived up to it's name. Just another very enjoyable episode of Dynamite from AEW.

Delighted to see the pro wrestlers beat the sports entertainers of course, as they should.

Nice to see OC get his proper theme back too.

Rampage looks tasty, Bishamon/Bucks should be great.

30-06-2022 7:08pm

Hope it's a permanent change and JR only calls the main events now on Dynamite moving forward . I think I read that at the PPV on Sunday he only called the 2nd half of the show which is a great idea because I've complained in the past about him getting tired and cranky around half way through the 4 hour PPVs and it's really annoying.

Loughc · 30-06-2022 7:49pm

Christian revealing luchasauras was very well done. His promos have been killing it lately as well. Such a great heel.

J. Marston · 30-06-2022 8:10pm

I'd like Luchasaurus to ditch the mask. He's a good looking guy under it. A bit wánk in the ring but he looks the part.

Plus having an angry dinosaur being the henchman for a guy mocking dead family members feels out of place. There's a chance to evolve him.

Loughc · 30-06-2022 8:58pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/119273183#Comment_119273183

I did like how his mask and gear is black now. I guess that’s somewhat of an evolution.

Agent Coulson · 30-06-2022 10:03pm

Looks like JR might be the new voice of Rampage.

He will do the second hour of Dynamite and then continue into the taped Rampage.

Agent Coulson · 30-06-2022 10:14pm

One of the drivers for AEW

Her and Asuka would be top of my list of women signings from WWE but the report does go on to say that she will probably go home to Japan if she doesn't re-sign.

I do like both songs but I don't think either are especially suitable for an entrance theme where you want to grab people's attention from the start of the music. Of the two I agree that WIMY is probably better.

Furious-Red · 02-07-2022 11:12am

I'm guessing santana is legit injured?

Agent Coulson · 02-07-2022 12:41pm

There is talk Santana has fallen out Ortiz and will leave once is contract is up.

Sean Ross Sapp has hinted at it sayinng they haven't been close for a while and they haven't had a tag match since the start of the year.

ThePott · 02-07-2022 1:19pm

It's a shame P and P never won the big one if that is the case. It feels sometimes like there's so many great tag teams in AEW but only a few ever get the spotlight. Think Santana and Ortiz sort of need each other tbh, I think they're better together than apart.

As for Rampage. The Royal Rampage was awesome, should be a yearly post-Blood and Guts fixture. As a concept it's a bit convoluted but still straight forward enough and different enough to feel fresh. Am delighted Brody King won as Darby felt like the obvious winner and it's nice that they're showing anyone can win a rumble and be in with a chance, even if Brody doesn't have a chance in hell of winning the belt obviously.

CastorTroy · 02-07-2022 1:37pm

One thing that looked weird with the Royal Rampage was when the guys in the Blue ring ran down then it looked like they suddenly remembered they have to go to the other ring which stopped the momentum. I kept expecting them to go through the red ring to get to the blue.

Furious-Red · 02-07-2022 2:42pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/119280082#Comment_119280082

Oh didn't realise that, that's unfortunate.

ThePott · 02-07-2022 9:31pm

First defence of the All-Atlantic title is going to be on a RevPro show Sunday week.

https://twitter.com/RevProUK/status/1543324590209961986

Shiminay · 03-07-2022 1:25am

B&G was something else. Sad Santana has picked up a knock, I wonder if Eddie picked something up too based on what he was saying to Claudio on top of the cage - but Eddie is almost always working, so who can rule anything out? :) It'd be a shame if P&P break up, but this is life and I'd rather see the 2 lads happy than "staying together for the kids" and having really awful break-up.

Rampage Royale was cool and as said above, I hope they keep it for post B&G in future.

03-07-2022 6:54pm

Will be heading over for All In and Grand Slam at Arthur Ashe in September.

Arthur Ashe last year was one of the best live events I was ever at it would be in my top 5 and that includes two Wrestle Kingdoms and a few Manias

Agent Coulson · 03-07-2022 7:04pm

Will be in NYC at the same time Grand Slam is on so I might try and get tickets when they go on sale.

Headshot · 04-07-2022 9:45pm

I was thinking isn't it amazing how AEW have dealt with out one of best wrestlers in the world in Omega but I fecking miss him so much at this stage :/

Agent Coulson · 06-07-2022 3:01pm

The All Atlantic Championship will be a traveling Championship.

Pac is not just defending the title at RevPro he will be defending it in Dublin at OTT

Cherry_Cola · 06-07-2022 3:40pm

Everyone needs to see Daddy Magic's promo from the Road to Rochester show. This needs to be on Dynamite.

https://twitter.com/WeeklyReplay/status/1544452662036504578?

Officer999 · 06-07-2022 4:07pm

He did a brilliant one too after All Out.

Reminds of the Joker on these promos. Love it

RollieFingers · 06-07-2022 4:12pm

Great stuff from Daddy Magic, he's one of the best talkers around.

Was catching up on Elevation and Dark, the debut on Dynamite was a dud of course but the oul big man Singh didn't look too bad in ring. Definitely a few steps above Great Khali levels of awfulness, the spinning Razors Edge finish looked good!

Shiminay · 06-07-2022 5:36pm

I think Singh's advantage is that he was a basketballer and probably already has decent limb strength and flexibility in comparison to other giants in the ring. He's not great, but he's certainly not groan-inducing when you see him like Khali. It'll be interesting to see what he does when he isn't in squashes with Jay Lethal.

Headshot · 06-07-2022 8:08pm

Isnt it amazing 2.0 were barely having a look in on NXT and they come to AEW and they've exploded. I suspect they never saw themselves head lining all these shows but they've picked up the baton and boy they arent letting it go

Fair play them. They've also done great stuff for Garcia too

Agent Coulson · 07-07-2022 5:13am

I wonder Dutch make an appearance now is old boys are facing off.

Blue_Dabadee · 07-07-2022 8:52am

I guess this means The Acclaimed are now babyfaces which I have wanting for ages.

They should be really in tag team title mix in my opinion, one of the best AEW home grown tag teams.

RollieFingers · 07-07-2022 9:12am

Great to see Wardlow get the win in decisive fashion, should be good to see him running through people for a while as champ.

Not the biggest fan of Christian but that turtleneck screams heel and he's had a few nice darts on the mic recently, good stuff. Dark Lucha looks great.

Fyter Fest and Death Before Dishonor shaping up nicely as well, Eddie/Takeshita should be tasty too!

riffmongous · 07-07-2022 10:01am

What do ye make of the Christian promos as regards them being 'cheap heat'? I've always been a huge fan so I'm biased, but imo when he says these things they come off as genuine for his character, he is a self absorbed slimy heel so of course he will go there about someone's family and personal life. He's also got a great delivery in his promos too, says them with conviction rather than in the "oh look how naughty I am" way

J. Marston · 07-07-2022 11:37am

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/119302748#Comment_119302748

They are cheap heat. You can't wrap dead Daddy/alcoholic brother lines up in nuanced character work. It's lazy shock value writing and that's fine for wrestling. This isn't "prestige television."

You flip a coin when using material like that. You'll either get boos or groans. If you get boos, job done.

CastorTroy · 07-07-2022 4:36pm

I see another former WWE champion made an appearance in the form of former North American champion Leon Ruff.

Agent Coulson · 07-07-2022 4:57pm

Looks like Adam Cole will be out for a good while from the concussion he got at Forbidden Door.

titan18 · 07-07-2022 5:35pm

Bit of a meh episode. They seemed to mess up timing wise as that main event was short.

Also, JR needs to go. I know he's a legend but he doesn't have it anymore. Giving him his own entrance is just ridiculous too.
