Leatherface is AEW canon now.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

He needs to team up with Abadon

πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ This gives new meaning to MJF throwing his childish tantrums and how he actually behaves around TK.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (2 children)

MJF as a baby face is such a mindfuck. Everything about him screams asshole

The MJF/Adam Cole skits remind me so much of Dark Order i love it

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Lol TK has to be a memer. He heard your complaints about too many belts so he threw on another belt

So both of these matches getting like 10 minutes.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

lol I was thinking the same thing.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Lol and somehow we get an Acclaimed squash too

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

But it was the Acclaimed that got squashed :(

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Good news is hob getting involved probably means Daddy Ass is coming back, at least IMO.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Did Kenny just imply Don Callis gave him steroids as a kid?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Lol that's what I got from it

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

"Vials of things I've never heard"

Kenny confirms he's a witcher

Jarrett segments feels like a way more coherent structured WCW 2000 segment.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Lucha brothers rule.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

He said yes!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Retiring the FTW belt will get heat with me!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I never even considered the possibility of a Stadium Stampede at All In.

Fuck yeah, I'm down for this.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yuta has improved but I don't think he's improved enough to end this OC title run

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Yeah, he's grown to be great as a cocky, douchy heel. I'd be shocked if he wins though.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I should know by now that Orange Cassidy is a really fantastic wrestler, and yet I find myself surprised by his ability every time he gets in the ring. I guess the gimmick works.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Definitely. And there's almost always something original --a move, a sequence-- in an OC match. He's quietly one of the best.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I hated that he won the International title, liked Pac way more. Expected him to lose so many times in the middle. Idk when but around the Jarrett stuff it just clicked. Now I'm an OC mark

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I like how in AEW the act of sitting down makes an interview even more serious.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Idk what else OC had left. Neck, Back, Knee and now Orange Punch hand are all injured.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Penta is looking great!

Weird, I don't see this thread in the browser but I do see it in the Artemis app

Definitely got a little Joker Sting there.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Don Callis and BCG have the right amount of sliminess and disdain for Kenny that makes it obvious in hindsight

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Sting needs to drink more water lol

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Tony looked like he was about to audition for the Broadway version of Reservoir Dogs

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Lol wait was Roddy somehow in a wheelchair now too?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

πŸ˜‚ I now feel like BTYBB is two guys playing mind games with each other and occasionally remember what the ultimate goal is

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

And hugging so hard their pecs clap.

This episode has been absolute chaos

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

And here I am, with my post-show thoughts (in no particular order):

KANGAROO KICK!

Stadium Stampede? At Wembley? Yes, please.

Really hoping we get a Daddy Ass return at All In.

When can I get a print of that wonderfully awful Chris Judas/Carny Piece of Shit painting?

Adam Cole's face during the Outback Steakhouse bit had me laughing out loud. Also, KANGAROO KICK!

Golden Elite vs Bullet Club Gold & Takeshita? I'm down. Despite turning heel, I still love me some Takeshita. Mainly because I'm a DDT mark. Loser must drop "Gold" from their team name and replace it with "Silver".

Nothing against any of the women that will be in the 4 way, but as soon as I saw the tournament bracket last week, I knew who would be in the match at All In. I was kind of hoping there would be some sort of upset. Should be a fun match nonetheless.

If BTYBB beats Aussie Open for the ROH Tag Titles (with a KANGAROO KICK!), and then Cole wins the BBB, that's going to be one awkward as fuck, back-stabby as all hell, tag title reign, and I absolutely want it.

The Texas Chainsaw Product Placement Death Match... certainly happened. I feel like it was lacking some Robocop. I don't think it was bad, but maybe I just wasn't in the right mood for it, because I usually love goofy shit in my wrestling.

I blinked and missed the finish to the main event.

KANGAROO KICK!
