CavemanLynn Posted September 9, 2022 Posted September 9, 2022 I'd've preferred them to announce a Six/Eight-Pack Challenge match for a couple of weeks' time, then have the competitors wind each other up in angles for weeks in the run-up. A build, y'know. Quote
Kamaras-Tash Posted September 9, 2022 Posted September 9, 2022 6 hours ago, Tsurutagun said: Mox wins the tournament. MJF cashes in the chip and beats Mox to leave Arthur Ashe as champ. This is obviously what's happening. Use a WWE booking trope to book your no. 1 heel who is, doing a "I could go to WWE in 2024" gimmick to win the World Title And it sucks Why? Because in kayfabe AEW Tony Khan is the matchmaker and he's sanctioned this. It means that TK is in cahoots with MJF even if he doesn't mean to. Even if they do the TK is giving MJF power to cash in the chip because he was desperate to get MJF back. In storyline, Tony comes across is having worse man-management skills than Olivia Wilde did on the set of Don't Worry Darling. It's a bad idea. Getting annoyed about something that hasn't even happened yet is a whole nother level of stupid Quote
Love-Wilcox Posted September 9, 2022 Posted September 9, 2022 I genuinely wouldn’t mind seeing Sammy lay down for Jericho in the final. No teasing a turn, just 3 seconds of shithousery and they crown Jericho new champ. Then of course MJF comes out to cheers and demands his match, which TK grants because “the people deserve a real main event” or whatever. MJF doesn’t look weak because he beat a fresh Jericho and Jericho can get mileage out of complaining that he only lost because he already wrestled a match. I dunno, just something a bit different I guess ?♂️ Quote

Guest Posted September 9, 2022 Posted September 9, 2022 If your final doesn’t have bear country and Peter Avalon in it, then you’d be as well calling it the aew 24/7 title Quote
JGP Posted September 9, 2022 Posted September 9, 2022 Maybe the Moxley thing is a more long term angle? Sammy somehow gets the win over him as he gets written out (taken out by MJF goons, JAS or something different (like Brody King) to spark his next feud). Danielson wins the title feuds with MJF but loses at the PPV. After a few months of MJF talking about how he’s going to take the title to WWE unless he gets all the money, Moxley steps up and saves the AEW title. Quote
Paid Members LaGoosh Posted September 10, 2022 Paid Members Posted September 10, 2022 Ok everyone that's enough fantasy booking for awhile. Quote
Paid Members Supremo Posted September 10, 2022 Paid Members Posted September 10, 2022 Having now seen the full show, nowhere near enough people are talking about William Regal being the greatest signing in the history of this company. The exponential flirting with Excalibur. Describing Danielson as trying to, "twist the melon," of Hangman Page. Calling himself an original raver from 88, "well known for a disco biscuit." Howling! He's the best. I pray it wasn't his contract Hunter was tampering with. Quote
Paid Members hallicks Posted September 10, 2022 Paid Members Posted September 10, 2022 They need to stop the habit of Schiavone disappearing off before the end of matches to do an interview spot for the next segment. Apart from telegraphing an imminent finish, it’s just a better booth with him there (especially when it’s just the three amigos without JR). Surprising myself at advocating for a 3-man booth, but there you go. Danielson’s music is so deflating. I want to be excited about my guy coming out to wrestle but I’ve got this song that’s just a slow/mid-tempo saunter that sounds like any old drum loop with ROTV shoehorned in and I’ve lost interest by the time he gets to the ring.

Regal has gone on record to say that him and HHH are very respectful to each other in terms of business to the point that they don't ask each other about business related stuff. Aside from his boring podcast, Regal is made for a comms role with the freedom he has now. I do often wonder if the Americans enjoy his schtick as much as we do with his British quirky sayings and mannerisms. Hopefully it's not just a 1 year deal he's on and doesn't just go back to a backstage role within WWE once it's done. Although, I would like to see Regal and R-Truth interacting. Quote

RedRooster Posted September 12, 2022 Posted September 12, 2022 I wasn't a fan of 2.0 at all when they first debuted, but they've grown on me. Jim Ross can fuck off, telling them to drop the "YouTube shit", as if that has any negative impact at all on their ability to draw money. Quote
