Forbidden Door

I hadn't really considered it until now, but it's absolutely insane that Sting wrestled on those WCW/NJPW supershows in 1991/92/93 AND has now wrestled on the AEW/NJPW Supershow in 2022. Incredible longevity. 

[Factotum]

Sting is someone who absolutely knows how to keep his legacy and mystique while being relevant in 2022. I'm glad he's treated like the absolute icon he is in AEW.

Sting is the fucking man and I hope we get to see Claudio versus PAC at some point in the very near future.

Sting’s 

Spoiler

Superkick rejection and Sentons were a delight!

I was really skeptical when he signed as I wasn’t sure what he could do after the Seth Turnbuckle bomb, but he’s been used brilliantly imo. Nothing like how TNA used Hogan and Flair during their last runs.

[FUM]

Sting is just fantastic eh? Absolutely on a roll at the minute as he has generally always been.

I haven’t watched the full show yet but enjoyed what I’ve seen so far.

I still have the huge criticism of wrestlers not watching the fucking matches that they aren’t in.

Yuta done the German Suplex spot and Dax tried it in the very next match. This is just one instance of the spot repetition that happens in AEW but I notice it every single big show they do. They done a PPV not long ago where it was so obvious too as about 4 matches done the Eddie Guerrero multiple suplex spot.

Ach, is there? I didn't know that. I hope the recent ratings leave them thinking twice about risking any significant build-up on AEW TV. 

I didn't order the show, as I didn't enjoy the build-up. While I'm glad the people that watched it had a good time, I don't particularly want to see Forbidden Door 2, or, for that matter, any further AEW-crossover shows. 

About four weeks away I think, 20 something of July.

ROH PPV is 23rd July. Which is the Saturday.

Great show. Worth the travel and ticket price as I was in the US anyway. That show flew by.....when it got to Mox/Tanahashi, I was convinced there was at least another match to follow. Crowd was electric all night, although a nasty fight in the crowd kicked off during the main event.

Ospreay / Cassidy was the highlight for me. But that show was amazing from top to bottom.

Ospreay, ZSJ, Shota Umino - all on the same flight back to London (just boarded), so not sticking around for Dynamite.

I hope your plane has a malfunction and Ospreay ends up in the engine after somehow falling out a window, then everything goes back to normal and everyone else on board is unaffected.

What on earth was Cole doing at the end of his match?

I think it was fairly obvious he was knocked out/silly. Jay White called an audible which is why he was in the ref's ear

[King Mal the Glorious]

It's been reported that's he picked up (another) injury. He takes a dropkick shortly before the end where he hits his head on the landing and looks out of it after that.

[LaGoosh]

He went into the match already with a major shoulder injury and it looked like his shoulder came out at the end so they just pinned him. He's going to be on the shelf for awhile.

Jesus, I hope this is true.
