The AEW Thread

Good PPV but felt a little flat at times, particularly the main event. It was a good match but just lacked something. Crowd booing Page is a problem too. His title reign has been a bit too average too often. Hopefully that can be rectified soon (see below).

Punk and MJF obviously stole the show. Punk's blade job was obscene. Great match that built and built and built. Wardlow's involvement was excellent. Him vs MJF will be great. Surely Punk now challenges for the world title?

Danielson and Mox was a similar match in how it built up. Very physical and very enjoyable. Regal coming to sort his boys out was brilliant. Hope Danielson and Mox do now team up, as that would be absolutely brilliant.

Face of the Revolution was decent. Right winner there.

Sting is how you use a legend. He delivered yet again. He's been brilliant since he began in AEW. The match itself was meh. Andrade just lying down on the table was daft. Sammy's face really annoys me and I can't take to him at all. As such, I hope he gets battered every time. Also, did Darby f**k up the coffin drop in that pre-match video?! Certain he missed most of it and took a poor landing! 

Jade Cargill wearing all green was fitting, as she's still too green. Not a bad match, but just a bit meh.

Britt Baker vs Thunder Rosa was better. However, Baker is fast running out of challengers. How do they keep that fresh?

Jericho vs Eddie was a good opener. Jericho being a petty dick at the end has all but surely cemented Santana and Ortiz leaving the Inner Circle, because Kingston has been right all along about matters there.

Tag match was great fun. Hard not to be with the teams involved.

Think they’re setting up tor Rosa to beat her in Texas next week, in a steel cage or something to keep Rebel & Hayter out.

Yeah, Baker has become very stale. 

Agree completely. It's always difficult to have someone hold the belt for a long, long time without it getting that way. That's especially true when you don't change things up a little as you go. WWE for all of their many, many faults have kept Reigns' long run interesting by having lots of wee sub plots (distention among the Uso, Brock as an underlying perma-threat, Heyman's will he/won't he). Britt has had none of that, it's been her and her two lackeys beating the challenger of the month for an age. Give it to Rosa, have her Vs Serena Deeb for a PPV cycle of absolutely banging matches, then build Britt again.
