LOL AEW announcers hyping up Mone but the crowd is dead for her.

ThatGuyPal · 05-26-2024, 10:16 PM

I think both Paige and Sasha Banks returns to WWE would be huge, but AEW fans like their homegrown talent and didn't really care for Saraya or Mercedes Mone. Toni Storm got over but she's done great gimmick work plus she was getting buried in WWE and didn't really get the push the other two did.

ThatGuyPal · 05-26-2024, 10:17 PM

I think Mercedes is looking good though in her first match back, im enjoying it so far

packman80 · 05-26-2024, 10:25 PM

AEW needs to copy WWE on PPV if you want to go hours long like this you need to break up the show over 2 nights a 5-6 hour PPV including pre-show hour is way to long for one night.

packman80 · 05-26-2024, 11:04 PM

This anarchy in the arena is crap with different camera shots every few seconds.

no10pin · 05-26-2024, 11:27 PM

I don't buy the AEW PPVs, and I figured it would be over by now, so I checked a site to see the results. They are live updating the Anarchy match, and this was the last update:

Perry grabbed Tony Khan backstage and brought him to the ramp. Darby showed up with a flamethrower and set Perry on fire.

That seems excessive. I'm assuming Perry was in something or wearing a special shirt?

Was definitely covered in protective gel but still looked cool.

His legs set the legs on fire which were totally covered. Which you figure had some fire safet pants on. Was only on fire a few seconds before it was put out.

packman80 · 05-26-2024, 11:33 PM

At least after the start of the match they stopped camera jumping that start of the match was a mess with every 3-5 seconds going to a new shot.

MJF dressed like a throwback HHH.

What? Where is this from? Not saying it's untrue but that's crazy, do they literally only have ONE of those masks? That would of been the souvenir of a lifetime for someone and if they chose to sell it then that's also their right. This wasn't MJF's first home run baseball in the major leagues he wants to give to his parents lol come on

Paige could be on an episode of Up, Up, Down, Down with Xavier Woods. Know they already had a previous video where she was telling him that

Copeland fractured his tibia and needs surgery. He'll be out a bit. Sucks as he was on such a good run. Not sure who will be the new TNT champion but I think Takeshita or Black should really be in consideration

Not shocked when he jumped off the cage and landed right on his feet instead of a normal going thru the table on a guy.

I was there. Sitting the opposite side of the arena. Not the best photo but that was my view.

No surprise there. He jumped awkward as hell. Either jump with confidence when you get up there or just dont do it at all. He's probably a bit old to be doing that stuff now anyway. Going to AEW hasn't been too good honestly, then again his WWE run was awful too. I wont blame him though, because you know Khan overpaid him.

Does make you wonder was he worried that him or Black were going to get cut pretty bad if he landed on Black since he wrapped Black in the barbed wire and tried to not put any weight on the landing to avoid it?

Such a stupid stupid move. Would be all for Takeshita taking the belt or someone like Jay White could use it to elevate himself up the card.

Love Edge, this is the problem with AEW. That was a wreckless and irresponsible spot and there's no one in AEW to stop this kind stupidity.

mmier118 · 05-28-2024, 04:37 PM

Being wreckless and irresponsible is one of the reasons I love AEW. Cody going through a fire table, 50 year old men jumping off barbed wire cages, Darby lighting Jack Perry on fire with a flame thrower and then getting strung up by his ankles and kicked in the face with thumb tack shoes are all irresponsible moments that make AEW great. These guys take huge risks to entertain us and I love it. They do so many crazy spots that it’s inevitable that sometimes they don’t go exactly right. I can’t believe Darby survived going through that pane of glass in stings last match. Or even Sting going off the balcony through those tables. They just give you a ton of WTF moments, too many to list really. Hope Copeland recovers fully and is back at it soon!

They can entertain without being stupid. At some point one of these wreckless spots are gonna end up worse than some of them end up, then are you gonna love it?

yeah totally

Ospeay v O'Reilly was damn entertaining

sauceboy · 06-10-2024, 09:19 AM

Ricochet seems to be AEW-bound. I don't think he'll be a major star there or anything, but he could have some fun matches against Ospreay, the Bucks, etc.
