Team Taz retreating from Sting is getting pretty old.

i was thinking is that the point? to make it seem "more" live or some chit.

it's been a decent how so far. chuck becoming rusev's bitch should be funny for both of them. and orange will get the hero pops.

been a solid show so far.

note from the first match- if they arent piping in crowd reactions, the young bucks are hella fuking over in jacksonville.

Who is this creepy fukking chick

Who is this creepy fukking chick

shes trying to be taker, gangrel and bray wyatt at the same time

[MikeTheOne]

I can see Moxley coming out after the match to get Omega and then The Good Brothers attack him.


Edit: Bam baby

[cheerupemokid]

The Good Brothers!

Edit: Too sweet! Bullet club reunion of sorts? Interesting.

[heyquikquestion]

Omega - Fenix match was fukking awesome.

This show was so much better than this week's Raw it's not funny.

like the ending a lot. lot of questions. lot of excitement. smark fanbase knows these guys are the bullet club, but tag champs of rival promotions and the world champ together in the ring is a pretty strong statement.

mirin aew getting nwa and impact gold on television. cant wait til they finally do ibushi/omega champion vs champion hnnggg

[JUSA]

You think this is building toward Ibushi v Omega? I don’t know anything about the guy, other than he and Kenny have a history and he’s built super aesthetic

[squat_blaster]

Anyone else think Snoop was gonna fall off the top rope? He was pretty shaky going up. I would have LMFAO

[JUSA]

I think I hit up everyone in this thread save you squat, I’ll get you on spread.

Really good show IMO. I like they have world title matches but properly build them for a couple of weeks. Makes it seem more special. The match itself was phenomenal, not quite up there with the Pac match but really cool in its own flippy way.

Omega really is interesting. How would you describe his style? He’s not really an agility-based guy but he’s able to work seamlessly with them. He’s a great pick for champion. Moxley cuts a great promo and is a former WWE champion but his style is fairly limited. Omega can work with just about anyone, if he drops the comedy.

I didn't really know what to make of Omega when he first came over. I don't watch New Japan and all I knew about Omega was Cornette talking **** about him saying he's goofy and makes dumb faces. He's been fukking money in AEW so far though and his wrestling is as smooth as it gets. He made Fenix look like a million bucks in defeat.

no idea but the fact that it isn't out of the realm of possibility is cool. they are boys and at least a few guys, including moxley, are working for both companies.

stupid cringe wwe raw level segment

omega reminds me of benoit in a lot of ways. owen too. he definitely has more moves. more convoluted chit that wouldnt make sense in a shoot whereas everything benoit did looked like real life. they both have that natural charisma in the facial expressions etc but both not amazing on the mic.

def less old school than the western canadian guys that came before him, but he has a lot of that in him. he's just more goofy than most of those guys naturally and it comes through in everything he does.

only watched a little of him pre aew. my only criticism of him really is that his matched with jabronis go on too long a lot of the time. wanna see if that changes now that he's a heel. i'm def enjoying his character work much better as a heel.
