TheGoon Posted January 28, 2021 Author Share Posted January 28, 2021 Really enjoyed that main event as well. Beach Break card looks solid. The wedding thing could go either way, but they’re usually at least eventful. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bert Raccoon Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 I think it's a testament to how good Brodie Lee was that he actually managed to elevate The Dark Order from a faction that was hated by the fans and journalists into one of the most popular groups on the card. I think his passing obviously had something to do with it as they've had to turn face but the group has huge potential and are hugely entertaining to watch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGoon Posted February 4, 2021 Author Share Posted February 4, 2021 KENTA! What a cracking surprise, brilliant main event as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Gaines Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 NJPW have an announcement at 3pm our time. Apparently that's midnight in Japan, so that HAS to be related to this surely. Added to Moxley/KENTA now being a NJPW rivalry after the last episode of Strong. I'd guess there's going to be a link between NJPW Strong and AEW. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ira Gaines Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 (edited) Yeah, seen that, and decided never to think about it again. When I seen they did a deal with Roku, I was a bit interested until I seen what it entailed. EDIT: I do think there'll be the relationship I mentioned though.

Bert Raccoon Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 I've went from absolutely loving Kenny Omega to detesting him in about a month which really shows how good he is in fairness. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As AEW were never that restrictive with their talent accepting other bookings that's not surprising. It's just been NJPW being in a huff due to having their on US expansion plans, as well as the relationship with RoH they didn't want to be seen as breaking. With the change in NJ management and pandemic ending touring both for RoH and NJOA, those reasons are largely gone. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strong and AEW would be good for both though. Constant exchange of talent is possible there, including when NJ send someone big on an extended stay there like they always do, which means big names could appear in the future like KENTA just did. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGoon Posted February 5, 2021 Author Share Posted February 5, 2021 Some of the fantasy matches people are throwing out are great. John Silver vs Tomorhiro Ishii my favourite I’ve seen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrestling seems to be a republican 'thing' in America. The McMahon's and Khan's donated loads to Trump. Taker donated something like $10k per month. There's obviously left leaning wrestling personalities too (Jim Cornette and Mick Foley are 2 off the top of my head) but the main players seem to be Trump daft. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
