Paid Members Jazzy G Posted December 28, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted December 28, 2022 With all those lights and the staging of that ad they all look like contestants on one of those singing reality shows waiting to go out in stage and wail like a banshee through a ballad.

I think he’s a special case in that he is the most unscripted out of the roster and does have a lot of presence, but there is still an air of the boy who cried wolf with him. I always seem to enjoy watching his storylines and still hoping for a renewed MJF feud, but his actual matches do get a bit chop happy for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merzbow Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 Big Bill/W. Morrissey and announcer Lexy Nair seem to have gotten engaged if her Instagram story is anything to go by. There's something in the water at AEW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were going out before he got to AEW, she’s DDP’s step daughter and Dallas helped him in his recovery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All set to be revamped in the new year with the 4th January show. Rampage is meant to be getting an update as well to make it more distinct from Dynamite. That'll be live on the 6th & doubles up with BOTB meaning a further wait to see what that's like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TobyK Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 I was originally hoping when Rampage debuted that the ring dressing would have a distinct difference i.e orange ropes or something, rather than just the banner swap. Understood that there’s live stage production logistics to deal with. It does seem there’s been a shot of new life into Rampage recently, following the dragged out ROH influx. Looking forward to seeing the change up in set design and a bit of rejuvenated action. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have had a strange vision of a Smackdown style fist set, but with a Muffin instead to troll CM Punk, but enough about my strange thoughts! With Mox and Hangman brawling all over the last wee while, people have wanted them to destroy the current set. Elite v. Death Triangle in a Falls Count Anywhere match has the potential for that on paper. Problem is they've got to tape Rampage after it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CavemanLynn Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 Rampage with a destroyed set would be the first time the show name made sense on screen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fact George or Lizzie were never part of the set always annoyed me. Who wouldn't want to see Wrestlers walk out underneath the legs of giant knock offs of Godzilla and King Kong (never Ralph though, he was always the odd one out).

Paid Members Nick James Posted December 29, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted December 29, 2022 (edited) I'm more than likely in the minority here, but for a show with a Falls Count Anywhere match and Joe Vs Wardlow, I found this episode a bit of a chore to get through. Not sure if it was the opening two matches both going around 20 mins each that made it a bit of a slog, but I just couldn't get into it like usual. I don't think there's anyone at the moment that I absolutely loved, but now couldn't give a fuck about than Bryan Danielson. Even The Acclaimed music video wasn't as good as usual. Kip Sabian looks fucking ridiculous. The one thing on this show that was put h perfect, though, was Jungle Boys run in and Hook trying to T-bone Big Bill. The crowd will go nuts when he actually does it. Also enjoyed Taz getting annoyed at Stokeley and saying he needs to be careful he doesn't get a slap, the crowd will also go nuts when Taz takes off the headset and storms down to the ring. This was just bad. Tay giving the middle finger to the crowd constantly was awkward as well. Edited December 29, 2022 by Nick James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn’t agree more. Show was a slog other than the Hook/Jungle bit. Elite vs DT is diminishing returns every week. It peaked with the initial match and then they killed any drama by announcing halfway in the stipulations for the final matches. Self indulgent rubbish. I did a list on here with all the people in AEW I’d get rid of and half of this show was those people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 I liked that it took 3 hits with a board for big bill to bail. Proper “giant” selling and not just one and done. hook getting him up a little for the T bone sets a nice hook for the match if he can hit it or not. Jungle boy is no Danhausen tho I don’t need to see 7 or anything in wrestling, I’ve had no interest in any of the matches post ppv. Danielson with the sting tan 25 years after starcade, he really doesn’t want the belt does he 😂😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidB6937 Posted December 29, 2022 Author Share Posted December 29, 2022 I actually really enjoyed that show. Great crowd. A lot of damn good matches. I'm one of the few people who is actually enjoying the Trios stuff though so that probably helps. I'd say it's been a good run of shows lately.

Paid Members LaGoosh Posted December 29, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted December 29, 2022 I enjoyed the show too. Though I did skip the opening match because I don't give a shit about either guy. Babyface Danielson is incredibly dull. Second week in a row the Champion has done nothing. I'm in love with Willow Nightingale. Fittest woman in wrestling.
