    That was a great turn and ending. I'm sure most people expected Toni to attack first at some point since it's her title they're fighting for so Mariah not waiting around or holding back was really well done. Wonder if they were trying to set Mariah as the heel as I would be behind her over Toni.

    Can I ask what put you off doing it again?

    For myself or others thinking of making the trip to All In this year.

    I was hoping to go last year but had to cancel and re-sell my ticket due to work.

    It's just a sum of small things added up together

    My seat was at the pitch level which was damn cool BUT the downside was this camera they use to move around to zoom into crowds etc really was distracting. (see attachment)

    The amount of times I had to sit up and move to let other people back into their seats while I was watching a great match was damn annoying

    Once the event was finished, leaving and being stuck in the biggest crowd I've ever been in and essentially a snails pace back to the train station/hotel (see attachment)

    I have a dreadful sense of direction and get lost easily lol but I have a mouth on me so no problem asking for directions. My hotel was near the stadium and had to hop on and off different trains and was just a pain

    Please dont have my experience put you off, overall it was a superb experience but im happy not going through it again. If you're an AEW fan it's something you really should experience at least once

    What was Will's dig at MJF about Tony and money, Tony got MJF to stay by giving more money, maybe I took it up wrong

    Hangman now with Elite?

    Mercedes is a better natural heel but her "Best Bret" promo was cringe

    Yea it didn't really make sense and Will even apologized on twitter.

    Agreed with the lack of crowd and atmosphere overall in Calgary.

    Hangman is only using the elite to get to swerve and I hope he just becomes a lone wolf character as his current character doesn't fit the Elite.

    Would be tempted to do all in but it really seems like a nightmare to get out of post event.

    Appreciate the insight. Definitely can see the downsides of it but like you said, would love to experience it.

    It's the getting back to the hotel late at night with a massive crowd that is the most off putting for me. Granted it'll be a smaller crowd this year cause they have a different stage set-up but still.

    I'm thinking I might book everything and buy a ticket last minute.

    It seems Hangman is more just a loose cannon gun for hire than full Elite. He's with them to get Swerve, not out of friendship. I like what they're doing so far with him, he seems to be operating at a level not seen since before he won the Championship.

    I'm liking the use of Jarrett also and I hope they continue to use him beyond the OH Tournament, maybe a part of blood and guts? He could be a great tool to get Hangman over even further as a heel, who would be raging at what he would perceive to be poor refereeing decisions.

    Can't fault how Britt and Mercedes has gone so far, very simple and to the point interactions is working.

    In regards Toni and Mariah, hard to say what way was the right way as to who should be the heel, but longer term a monster heel Mariah works better for me than face Mariah.

    AEW seem to be doing a lot right, right now. They deserve an upswing in momentum.

    Saw somewhere that Twisted Metal season 2 is starting filming this month so Joe has probably been written off tv for that.

    Willow is the new CMLL Womens Champion, Tony sent Willow down to help CMLL out and replace Stephanie Vaquer.

    What a year Willow has had a champion in AEW, NJPW & now CMLL.

    Who was that clean shaven man with Dax Harwood?

    Outrunners with Dalton Castle seems such an obvious choice.

    Even though they have so many contracted wrestlers, are they working limited or something? Not only did Roderick Strong also have a match on Rampage, but didn't Top Flight face Shane Taylor Promotions?

    Who's been sanctioning the matches the past few weeks because wasn't Juice defending the titles before last night?

    I was a bit annoyed when Dalton Castle lost against Strong

    Dalton Castle always makes me laugh and now with the Outrunners, what chemistry!!

    Forgot that Dalton got injured during this match, maybe that was the reason he lost, I hope so.

    Dalton seemingly got concussed :(

    Fightful reporting AEW will run a major event in Dallas in 2025 and a city official has hinted to them that it could be a stadium show.

    Aer Lingus fly direct to Dallas Forth Worth as well.

    The AT&T stadium is about a 15 minute drive from the airport.

    Dynamite 250 tomorrow night and with AEW & TNT looking like they are treating it as a PPV level show will we get any debuts and returns on the show I wonder.

    The announced card so far..

    Swerve vs. Okada

    MJF vs. Will Ospreay

    Mercedes Mone vs. Nyla Rose

    Tony Khan has stated (in an interview with comicbook.com) that there is no plan for a US stadium show "in the immediate future".

    So take that for what it's worth. He didn't confirm or deny Fightful's report on Dallas. Who knows if he's just being cryptic as May or August or whenever isn't 'the immediate future'.

    Tony saying RJ City has been the main man behind the Toni/Mariah story as he was the only one who had seen All About Eve.

    RJ may still get his All Elite banner.

    What an amazing two hours of wrestling.

    Ospreay vs. MJF where the best wrestle was another 5 star banger from both men.

    Okada going weak at the kness for Mercedes had me in stiches and it looks like she is going to be part of The Elite now which is the right way to go with her.

    Nyla Rose was the perfect opponent for Mercedes.

    Mariah May is just so good and really has earned her moment in the spotlight at All In.

    Swerve vs. Okada was great and a perfect set up for Blood & Guts next week.

    Hangman is only after one thing and he doesn't care about anything including the world title.

    I'll probably be on my own with this view, but now would seem like a good time for Toni to drop the Timeless gimmick and come back out for blood and without all the pomp.

    Even the biggest fan of the gimmick would have to admit it has a shelf life, and I think dropping it now would really make this feud with Mariah a classic for AEW.

    But maybe the gimmick is Toni's comfort zone on the mic.

    Only watched that hour match and what a match it was. MJF really is an amazing wrestler and I don’t think he gets enough credit for that. His talking overshadows is wrestling abilities and it really shouldn’t.

    Regards,

    P.
