Surprising but deserved win for Sammy, but odd none of The Inner Circle were out celebrating with him but both them and The Pinnacle seem to have been forgotten about recently 

I've not seen any Rampage spoilers, but it's possible none of the Inner Circle were there tonight?

After Jericho and MJF wrapped up, both the Inner Circle and Pinnacle are meant to be on a "break". More so noticeable with the Inner Circle, while most of the Pinnacle outside of MJF are still tagging on the likes of Dark.

Jericho is touring with Fozzy at the moment so makes sense he's not there but just seems like both factions have been slightly forgotten about at the moment but in fairness they don't really have anything going on as a group anyway just now

Jericho was asking to split up the Inner Circle, but TK said they don't have to formally split up. They can just do their own things and pick up whenever needed.

FTR & Spears are still more obviously linked due to Tully managing them both. If it hadn't been for Wardlow tagging with Spears & FTR on the Dark shows it would be easy to think that The Pinnacle were done.

Jericho is a fat fucking right wing, self indulgent idiot. Saying his feud with MJF was the best in a couple of decades. 

What. Utter. Shite. A fucking stupid ending after what was a fine if silly ending the match previous. 

Honestly, this guy has gone in my eyes from one of the best of all time, to fucking self loving moron.

I knew it was always Khan that had the final say, but I’m reading that as influence they did have diminishing, Cody especially. 

Probably isn’t that big a deal to the guys themselves tbf but just wonder at what point Tony decided he was doing everything. 

Tony Khan recently said he takes a lot of advice from Jim Cornette's rantings - I thought it was a joke at first, but he said it seriously. And Cornette's biggest complaint is the amount of power the EVP's have.

Sounds like an excellent show last night. Slightly bemused by the signing of Rush. A completely unlikable individual and one who is lucky that Mike Bennett exists otherwise he would undoubtedly be the whiniest wrestler ever.

I was about to say "They signed Rush?", then remembered it was Lio Rush and his 21st Century take on Big Money Matt.

Thought that was a really good show last night, delighted for Sammy. Him vs Bobby Fish should be great, and by all accounts Danielson’s match on Friday is a screamer. 

Puzzled by Lio Rush as well. I think he’s a decent addition to the roster, but as noted above he’s basically working a different version of Big Money Matt? 

The Dark Order/Brodie stuff was lovely, and for better or worse I’m going to struggle to forget that Arn Anderson promo.

Casino Ladder match is looking pretty stacked: Mox v. Andrade v. PAC v. Archer v. Orange Cassidy v. Matt Hardy v. "the Joker" 

If they pull the trigger with this and it's Hangman place will go nuts

I'm very much in an overthinking this to death place when it comes to Hangman. This feels a little like a title challenger for now, not Full Gear. Possibly to to try and get eyes on one of the Saturday Dynamites they've got coming up (like Jungle Boy's last challenge) or the return to Wednesdays.

Tonight's card for the 2 Year Anniversary of Dynamite:

  • Casino Ladder Match: PAC v. Andrade v. Jon Moxley v. Lance Archer v. Orange Cassidy v. Matt Hardy v. "The Joker"
  • TNT Championship: Sammy Guevara (c) v. Bobby Fish
  • Hikaru Shida v. Serena Deeb
  • The Elite (Kenny Omega, Adam Cole, and the Young Bucks) v. Bryan Danielson, Christian Cage, and the Jurassic Express

It's both a lot, but feels like there's something missing. Usually because they will have announced interview segments as well by now.

I don't think there's anything announced for this week's Rampage so that could end up being a bit of a packed episode considering the talent with nothing announced so far.
