Fyter Fest free and will be in for 2 nights

Greatest relationship in wrestling today is Britt and Tony. The way he was her motivation for getting up that hill.

Agent Coulson · 04-06-2020 6:01pm

Tony has been the MVP of AEW for me.

Yea she is doing a great job of heeling it up especially since her injury which maybe in the long run could be the best thing for her.

Enjoyed Dynamite again this week, the only thing i didnt really like was the table spot in the main event as Cody just got straight back up, the ref should have started the 10 count and both just making it back in the ring at 9.5 etc

I wonder could we see Darby getting involved in the Mox/Cage match to get revenge on Cage after DON? Could be a great storyline imo especially Darby as the underdog

Guys.... seriously.... what if this has all been a work.

Corny's constant griping about the AEW tag division (back slap tags, flippy spots, etc).

Yet he watched and reviewed the show every week? Generating increasingly more heat with hardcore AEW fans?

Got so offended by the Stadium Stampede match that he swore off ever watching AEW again, only for the most old-school, hard-hitting, southern style tag team to show up the VERY NEXT WEEK. Then do his podcast? Then claim they have legit heat with Cody and the Bucks over comments made in shoot interviews?

This just all fits together far too nicely.

If Cornette shows up as their manager this could be one of the greatest works of all time...

Lithium93_ · 06-06-2020 8:09pm

Pig will fly before Jim Cornette shows up in All Elite Wrestling.

BSK · 07-06-2020 2:01pm

Can’t see it but it would be good. I’d rather wait until a crowd is there for that heat

BSK · 07-06-2020 2:40pm

Jericho’s podcast is brilliant. The ones with Hardy, FT, Archer, Britt Baker

LineOfBeauty · 09-06-2020 2:58pm

I know the roster is limited due to Covid and you don't want to give away money matches on TV but not mad about FTR debuting against Butcher and The Blade. Two similar heel teams.

Agent Coulson · 11-06-2020 6:35pm

Tony Hawk on this week.

ricero · 12-06-2020 4:52pm

Matt Hardy is the dirt worst

I was honestly surprised to see that when watching live. Cool touch.

Lithium93_ · 12-06-2020 6:00pm

Matt Hardy referencing previous gimmicks of his, is also a cool touch.

FTR had a great debut match against Butcher & The Blade, though the post-match thing with Tony, then The Bucks, and the entire AEW Tag Team division, they've got plenty of options in terms of feuds/story lines, keep them as far away from The Young Bucks for as long as possible.

Penelope Ford being the one to pin Hikaru Shida was also surprising, would have thought Nyla or Kris Statlander would've been the one to get the pin and win. So I'm assuming Penelope's in line for a future shot at Shida?

Jungle Boy last week, Marq Quen this week, I can see and appreciate what Cody Rhodes is trying to do with the TNT Championship. It'll be beneficial to whoever beats him for said Championship in the long run.

Moxley/Cage - that's just gonna be a brawl. Maybe some shenanigans from Tazz.

And lastly, Chris Jericho on commentary, is there anything the man can't do?

Agent Coulson · 12-06-2020 6:20pm

I also like that focus on the Tag Team division is just limiting the Tag Teams as they are all also getting singles matches as well and using some of them for Cody's TNT champions to show them off as individual wrestlers as well is a great idea.

Lithium93_ · 12-06-2020 6:42pm

Sonny Kiss & Joey Janela, another potential tag team there as well, if that's the route they choose to go.

I want to see Orange Cassidy step up to Cody for the TNT Championship, but he seems to be occupied with Jericho and The Inner Circle at the moment. Mike Tyson/Orange Cassidy vs. Chris Jericho & Sammy Guevara down the line?

Sammy Guevara too is another one who could step up to Cody, but it seems like what he's doing with Matt Hardy for now, seems there's groundwork/seed being set for a potential face turn?

They've got all the options to play with.

J. Marston · 12-06-2020 6:50pm

Shida was very lucky with that rope spot. Her neck got caught under the bottom rope and snapped back...

Itssoeasy · 12-06-2020 8:03pm

Does anyone know exactly what arn Andersons role backstage is ? I ask because I listen to his podcast and just the knowledge he has for professional wrestling is amazing. I hope that whatever his role is off air that the young wrestlers are asking him his advice because if they aren't then that's a shame.

According to the Roster section of the AEW website, he's down as a Coach. Same thing on the Wikipedia page, but hovering the mouse over it, it says Road Agent.

Even though she wasn't in the match, I blame Nia.

Pentecost · 12-06-2020 11:53pm

Watching Dynamite for the first time in a long time and for maybe the third time ever so excuse the potentially blindingly obvious statements to follow. It really is very good and feels like a real alternative to WWE.

Logical storytelling, and not unnecessarily complicated or stupidly "comedic". Definitely going to try and catch it more often.

LineOfBeauty · 13-06-2020 12:32am

Just to follow on from that positivity. Thought the in ring on Dynamite this week was really good, well worked and felt crisp in several matches, really enjoyed it.

CastorTroy · 13-06-2020 2:03am

I will say I thought FTR seemed to be a bit off. Maybe just out of practice.

Only released in April, debuted last Wednesday, there'd probably be some ring rust.

Unless they used the ring Edge has to keep the ring rust away.

Neil3030 · 13-06-2020 7:35pm

Whichever is the fat spitfire pilot out of Butcher and Blade also botched a couple of moves.

The White Wolf · 13-06-2020 8:58pm

Er....I see Allie is advertised for next week's dynamite as being in the corner of Dustin Rhodes in a tag match. Is she not the bunny anymore?

Yea i think he is still a bit green in the ring which may have had an impact on the FTR flow of the match

Ah thats really crap for Statlander especially with her being booked on regular basis. I wonder will they do a Baker vs Statlander feud from each side of the ring

Neil3030 · 15-06-2020 7:07am

Is Omega still booking the women's division? That's now Baker and Statlander injured in utterly unnecessary hi risk spots for the weekly TV show. Whoever has the book needs to be fired, and the division needs to drastically shift focus toward characters and psychology. I trust Khan to do neither of these things.

Lithium93_ · 17-06-2020 8:45am

It looks like another cracking show.

#AEW Tag Title:
Kenny/Hangman v Dustin Rhodes & QT

#1 Contenders Match:
Chris Jericho/Sammy Guevara v Best Friends

Cody Rhodes TNT Title defense

The Young Bucks v Sabian/Havoc

MJF v Billy Gunn

ConcertKing · 17-06-2020 8:48am

Really enjoyed AEW Dark last night.

Really loving Lance Archer and he really does have one of the best entrances I have ever seen in wrestling.

He's been badly underused since he lost to Cody which is really pissing me off!

They have a likeable, charismatic and natural sympathetic babyface in Scorpio Sky, I feel him and Archer would make a good programme, which would elevate both, especially if Archer/Roberts get real heat on him. Sky wouldn't even need to go over to get over, so to speak.

Agent Coulson · 18-06-2020 1:25am

This broad needs to find Jesus quickly

Britt is awesome.

Agent Coulson · 18-06-2020 1:37am

WWE must have sent a cease and desist to AEW and Billy Gunn for using the full name Billy Gunn.

They are just calling him Billy like they did with Cody without using the surname and using his sons with him to get the full Billy Gunn name out.

Also Britt rocks with the note passing.

Agent Coulson · 18-06-2020 1:55am

Ricky Starks another good signing by AEW.

Hugely underwhelming if signed just like Brian Cage and FTR!

Ridiculous how new guys/signings are going straight to title shots.

Feels like The Elite are really starting to hog the limelight lately which is really annoying me too.

Agent Coulson · 18-06-2020 3:20am

Another really solid episode and some great matches.

Orange vs Jericho could be great.

Lithium93_ · 18-06-2020 7:49am

Kenny/Page vs. Dustin & QT, - solid enough opener, though Dustin took a spot with Kenny, that left him shook like a hand at mass.

I'm curious to see which version of Matt's personality's will Sammy Guevara choose to face next Wednesday? Or will he rotate them and Sammy gets a dose of all of them?

FTR & The Young Bucks, I said what I said last week, keep them apart for as long as possible, though The Butcher & The Blade seem to be the connecting factor between them so far. Sabian and Havoc looked good in defeat. AEW's tag division is loaded.

Not completely up to speed with Ricky Starks, other than he took Cody to the limit, feels like he and Arn are being positioned as heels.

Anna Jay joining Dark Order? Sort of makes sense, given her losing streak, I'm gonna wait and see how this develops.

Britt Baker just continues to be an inspiring role model.

Billy without Gunn after it, didn't sit right with me, hopefully he can get the Gunn part back. MJF is a despicable SOB, but a damned good one.

Him and Wardlow vs. Jurassic Express seems to be something planned down the line.

Glad Best Friends held onto their tag team contendership. Orange Cassidy vs. Chris Jericho, ooh buddy that'll be a good one.

CastorTroy · 18-06-2020 12:51pm

Nice of them to remember that Best Friends were Number 1 contenders, though no idea what that means since there have been other tag title matches since they won that match.

Like when Impact does it, I don't see the point in making their PPV just be part of the weekly shows. They're just normal episodes.

Genetic Jackhammer · 18-06-2020 5:26pm

The thing with AEW Dynamite is I would actually love it to be a 3 hour show as they have enough talent on it to fill another hour. Saying that I would tire of 3 hours quick enough and right now they leave me wanting more which is always a good thing. I hope they do not start to over expose the product.

Pentecost · 18-06-2020 7:22pm

Yeah given the number of ad breaks, 2 hours is spot on I think with PPVs up to three.

RollieFingers · 19-06-2020 8:06am

Another really good episode for me, enjoyed the tag matches and Cody/Starks. Delighted to see Starks in the company, he did some excellent stuff in the NWA, thought he was presented very well in his debut.

Good jump up in ratings for AEW, NXT bringing some big names from the main roster recently and still getting binned.

Lithium93_ · 24-06-2020 8:24pm

Minor changes to the show tonight.

With Florida the way it is with 5000 new cases I really can’t see how they and wwe keep taping going there as this will constantly happen each week the tape

Agent Coulson · 25-06-2020 1:12am

Luchasaurus shooting star press :eek:

Agent Coulson · 25-06-2020 1:57am

AEW commentary team being open that wrestlers are missing due to Covid-19 and not hiding from it.

Agent Coulson · 25-06-2020 3:01am

Orange vs Jericho closing was great and I can't wait to see them go head to head.

Agent Coulson · 25-06-2020 5:49am

Renee has Covid-19 that is why Mox is isolating.

ricero · 25-06-2020 11:34am

The press conferance was one of the worst wrestling segments I've seen in years. The drizzling ****s.

Codys ego holds no bounds.

Really would've thought that would've been on Fyter Fest Night 1, but it's on Night 2. Either way, it's going to be a great match.
