Had the TV broadcast cut at Roman leaving with baby USO it’d have been perfect. It was the shite at the end with Fury being a plonker and Drew being a happy loser that was bad.

Paid Members Nick James Posted September 3, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted September 3, 2022 The first PPV I have watched live or in its entirety in a long long time, and I must admit, I enjoyed myself. It is still with its faults (the CGI heads, birds, fish, whatever the fuck else), but that was a fun show. I did have to chuckle that after 3 hours, someone decided to start trying to get an AE-Dub chant going which didn't take off. Imagine spending all of that money to wait till the end of the show and protest chant. Tyson Fury singing can fuck right off, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

d-d-d-dAz Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 I think that main event might need to be studied in years to come of how to book a main event, too. It was note perfect. They hit all the cliches of a babyface win so it was all the more impactful and when the final pin was broken up. So, so good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFFC Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 They didn't just show a shirt that said "Better Dad than Chris Benoit" 🤦 Turned in purely for the Drew/Roman match and it didn't disappoint, a failed cash in, Solo making the main roster debut, near falls everywhere. A little part of me hoped the title would finally change as the pop would have been amazing, but a title change this significant has to happen at a Wrestlemania surly?

poetofthedeed Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 The main was a very very good WWE main event. Â Sheamus vs Gunther was a fucking spectacular piece of business though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea why Drew had to look like such a loser, not angry, nah, just sing Don't look back in anger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ending of Sheamus/Gunther when they’re both just shouting at each other before the finish was great.  I question whether it’s proper wrestling - as they did just beat the living shit out of each other - but I agree completely. Main and Gunther matches were top, top matches for me. Rollins/Riddle was very good, the judgment day/edge Rey match was fun and everything else wasn’t below par. Dominik’s career probably isn’t safe away from his dad, but still a fun turn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Infinity Land Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 I hate when AEW have pulled the person in black/masked attacker angle, only to reveal someone almost nobody knows. Being a passive fan. I thought that was one of the Usos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That ending though. Good lord. It was like a fever dream. Tyson Fury knocks out Theory, shakes Roman's hand like a complete heel, then starts a sing along with Drew and then........that's it? Awful.

Paid Members Nick James Posted September 3, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted September 3, 2022 Don't get me wrong, the production etc is still miles off from being perfect and the quick wins are low hanging fruit, but I enjoyed myself and that's all I want from an entertainment show. If World's Collide is a good show and All Out knocks it out of the park, this could be a cracking weekend for the old grapplin'. Bringing Aichner back to a surprise pop, but logically keeping his name as Giovanni Vinci was a good nod. I'm surprised at how much I enjoyed Gunther Vs Sheamus as it's not usually my cup of tea, but fair fucks to both chaps. I'm still shocked at how over Edge was. Dominik is wank, though. They could have had the turn before the finish, instead of having Judgment Day lose, then sitting in the corner pissing themselves laughing at the turn. Theory took that punch from Fury like a champ.

Go away with that shit. Discuss why you didn’t like it - which is perfectly fine - or just leave it alone. Joy sponge. To clarify, not acting. I really enjoyed the show. It was very good and the matches all delivered. Edited September 3, 2022 by d-d-d-dAz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
