He was also announced for the 1990 Rumble match, if I remember correctly.

One thing I would like to add, is that I didn't mind the finish to last year's women's match. At least it was more grounded, with Toni being held back as Mina was simply beaten with a title belt. Nothing absolutely bonkers like threatening to murder Jack Perry. Didn't Mox tap clean to Kyle, on the same show, last year? The submission finish can absolutely work. Just stop getting stupid about it and keep it simple.

Problem was imo, everyone knew he was getting thrown off regardless. Zero tension. They have done the exact same spot in the past.

I respect that Skye Blue is at least willing to go that extra mile. Julia Hart on the other hand, barely looks bothered a lot of the time. Women's match was definitely the better one. Can imagine Bayne, Skye etc. Going 'well if we ain't the main event, then you better bring extra mops' in response to going on first again. I honestly struggled to care about the men's match since the result was pretty obvious. Pretty sure I even predicted the DCF getting the match and going over to push Osprey Vs. Fletcher, a while back. Also imo, the 'threaten one wrestler with something bad, until another one quits' is such a lazy finish. Haven't they done some version of that finish three or four times, now? Loved the rest of the DCF immediately panicking when Wardlow picked up the exploding backpack. Continuity isn't hard. Everything else was decent to good. Especially enjoyed the trios brawl. Bandido is fucking great.

Going 'Kick steamer bellend' with Nick Wayne, might be one of AEW's most inspired ideas ever.
-
Honestly I think that tombstone probably did more damage to Josh's knees. Looked pretty nasty.
-
I'm convinced that if Darby ever stopped doing mad shit, his body would immediately crumble to dust.
-
Ciampa winning the national title and then immediately losing it to Dragunov, would be very funny.
-
I'm not as down on Gabe Kidd as others but fuck me, even I'm not going to defend that promo. Shockingly shite. Triangle Vs. Trinity was a fun Stardom style trios and Dragunov Vs. Beast was good but went a little off the rails before getting back on track, following that scary power slam landing. I've never been a big fan of that low angle power slam. Bin it.

Bollocks 😂

Tomb Raider I-VI Remastered, currently £8.99 on PSN.

Let's be honest, Bang Bang Gang was also a pretty lame name.

Turning the BBG heel feels to me like a reaction to the Death Riders, becoming face by default following recent events. Starting a new big faction war on the eve of B&G without them being in an actual match feels off, though. Overall a fun show. Lena Kross going goth after getting the mist, is the kind of goofy pro wrestling continuity that I love. Divine Dominion Vs. Wrathlander, was a cracking TV match. Even the non finish didn't bother me. As long as the matches are good, I can just about forgive B&G becoming an annual thing. And like @HarmonicGenerator I'm well up for more of Statlander and Kross battering each other.

Vaguely remember the hotel (I think it was a hotel) section, genuinely creeping me out. Cracking game.
-
Have they finally stopped with the twitter updates? Unless I missed them, I don't recall any during the show.
-
For the love of the wrestling gods, DO NOT PUT DRAGANOV IN THE DCF. Fun show. Assuming the woman's brawl is building towards a Blood and Guts match. Nick Wayne cracked me up but I still don’t see him getting out of the midcard.
-
All things considered, I thought DA Veilguard, turned out much better than it could have and I've always found ME Andromeda a blast to play. Anthem pretty much fucked BioWare's reputation, though. A complete disaster.
-
Bet the usual "anti-woke' wankers are loving it, too. Hopefully some former devs, start a new studio. Edit. Wasn't a lot of BioWare's problems caused by executive interference?
-
For the longest time, I was convinced that WWF announced a 'career ending match' between Ted Dibiase and The Texas Tornado, shorty after Dibiase cost him the IC title.
-
Random thought. I hope Mark Davies, gets a run in this year's CC. He's been one of my favourite wrestlers of 2026. Seriously though. With how loaded the AEW roster is, this year's tournament could be an all timer.
-
They should have the greatest lumberjack match of all time, just to annoy Seth.
-
Ciampa going full DDT, with Andrade's pants was the highlight of a good but really obvious match. Real 'Everyone knows I'm losing, so fuck it' energy.
-
Fair point and I agree that it didn't really feel like a PPV main event.
-
Other than a bland period between Osprey and Ricochet, I really enjoyed Clockwork Carnage. Overall a solid show. Only match I didn't care about was the TBS match.
-
Tailgate Brawl, not playing for anyone else? Just getting a black screen. Main show working fine. Just started it. Edit. Watching on MyAEW.
