  1. It is, 100%, however they definitely need to heat it up a bit. All of what you said is true, but we're 3 weeks out and it doesn't feel that big at all. They've hardly interacted in months and it's only the last couple weeks anything has happened. Its cold at the minute if you watch the weekly shows. This is where it benefits just watching the PPVs, WWE are so good with the video packages it'll feel like the biggest match ever, which it should, but watching week to week it doesn't.
  2. The Moana line at the end was great, proper wanker heel delivery of it as well. The Rock is so fucking good man, it just shows when he's up for it he's on another level and always has been. Agree that Rock v Cody is the match now like, they're going to have to go some way to make Reigns not look like an afterthought, which ro be fair I'm sure they will once Heyman gets going etc, it's just a shame Rock isn't going to be around much again soon.
  3. Whatever it is that's happened or not happened, it'll all end up being Megan and Harry's fault in the end. Either way it doesn't look good for Corbyn.
  4. The whole thing really has been building to Gable beating Gunther. Its felt like one of them old fashioned WrestleMania stories that started in November ish last year, Gable was chasing Gunther, lost in the first instance but kept going. The whole build up to the match on RAW with Gables promos etc, it all pointed and made sense to him being the one to challenge and finally beat Gunther after all his work. Sami has only just entered the story so I can completely understand why those watching week in week out aren't behind Sami in this instance, it shouldn't be his match.

    Very minor RAW spoiler below, put it in tags just in case
  6. To be fair its one of those decent sleeper PPVs between Rumble and Mania that will end up being pretty good. It's basically a set up show for WrestleMania and the sort of card/show I envisioned us getting more of when the Network first started as like a network special. The fact its in a stadium though is mental, like they know it'll sell out anyway, but seems mad. Saying that it will make the atmosphere a lot better than this card being in the US. It is what it is, it's not meant to be a super show or anything, jjst something to keep us going and build some angles/matches for WrestleMania. I imagine it'll deliver above expectations based on the card, but below based on it being a stadium show.
  7. Let's hope so or FTR will be fuming
  8. "Recovering" alcoholic Les isn't he? Not to be that guy and ruin the fun but not great hearing of him like this
  9. Must admit my first thought was the same as the "pervs on social media" as you put it as I've never heard of him, but what you've said there about Kingston makes sense. Hopefully they address that before the match and explain it so people like me can get more into it/understand why its happening. I must admit, I've been a big critic in relation to matches for the sake of matches in AEW and too much happening on their social media channels that if you only watch the TV you just don't see, but they have been a lot better recently. It's still not perfect, let's be honest nothing in life is, but I'm a lot more invested now than I have been for months. I don't want much more than they're giving, I just want to see more of the 30 second promos on TV rather than just the socials (which they have been doing) and just more of an explanation as to why something is happening. I understand I'm not the intended audience, never watched Japanese wrestling, no nothing about it or the CMLL guys etc, but give me a bit of story and I'm fine with it. Like I say it's a lot better so this isn't an anti AEW post at all, and like I say what you said makes perfect sense why the match Is happening, so either way I know now, but they need ro hammer it home on TV. They probably will but I'm just saying it as a general point.
  10. Didn't say it was a bad thing, but what I mean is if ever there's an example of someone that so obviously isn't a heel, playing a heel, then that's the one. And let's be honest, the reason people hate him isn't because he's now playing a heel on TV. Builds into my wider point mind, heels in pro wrestling still work but it's different heat because we know they're not really wankers. Well, most of them.
  11. The art of the conventional heel of the old days is long dead, I mean based on this forum the biggest heel going at the minute is the bloody Rock. I think now kayfabe is long long dead, people just want to enjoy wrestling, and having a good heel helps with that but they don't really hate them. People hate heels because they're heels I think a lot of the time these days. Like the Dom Mysterio stuff, you can see when people are booing them they're smiling ear to ear, it's part of rhe act, its fun. The closest we get is probably Logan Paul currently, but even he has his fans, when he hands out a bottle of prime people are loving it. Bucks are doing some good stuff in AEW currently, nut they note hated hated. Your main heels are where there's just no reaction because they're shit, see Baron Corbin, but most of the time we all know it's part of the act and you just go along with it.
