Guest Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 I don’t think anyone in wrestling brings me pure joy more than Sting jumping from a height or no selling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Hannibal Scorch Posted June 27, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted June 27, 2022 I don't normally watch the post media scrum, but I wanted something on in the background. FTR are great aren't they. Just seem like top top guys and glad they are happy.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Nick James Posted June 27, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted June 27, 2022 I really didn't like FTR in WWE, I thought they were overhyped and the usual 'held back' types, but they are now my favourite thing in wrestling. Both of them seem just like stand up guys and loving life at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 I’ve only converted to ftr since their turn, before that they seemed all talk about what they stood for, as good guys see them standing by it and it works Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
69MeDon Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 I watched this in the background while working today (I didn't pay for it, so don't come at me @TildeGuy~!). And, yeah, as I expected, a great series of wrestling matches. It was a very fun show and really helped my Monday fly by. I was surprised Punk didn't appear at all, given where they were, but maybe he did post-show? I didn't watch the pre-show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LWOLeN Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 Adam Cole needs some muscles/meat to bump on. Seriously dangerous for him to be in Heavyweight strong style matches. Vince/Triple lost the war with Adam Cole as Champion and didn’t even offer him a proper main roster deal. Yet Tony Khan rates him as the second coming of HBK. Cole makes everyone look smaller in his matches as they have to hunch over to take his kicks and punches because he’s so small. Just let it go Tony Khan..... They could have easily put Lance Archer in there and the match would have been fine. It was a fun show. Truly love AEW.    Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merzbow Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 Jay White's still not even 30? His first push was too much too soon but fuck he's grown so much in a pretty short time. But yeah, it felt like a lot of guys with something to prove even more than usual on this show and it ended up being really good, just wish it didn't mean a month of less than TV beforehand.

The King Of Swing Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 Hopefully Tony Sniff realises that under four hour PPV's is the way to go. The main show flew by. Only watched the Caster, Gunn Club match on the buy in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infinity Land Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 I remember something. You could certainly argue that it was obvious that the Fan Karaoke Connection of Jericho & Misu were winning the opening trios. However, making it a match for the advantage in Blood & Guts telegraphed it. I don't recall that being mentioned in build up until it was mentioned on comms.

Guest Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 Finished the show and it was great start to finish. Matches delivered and some cracking moments as well. Real lack of concern for where the ass boys went post show, wtf was that about haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like a weird nod to the Eddy/Rey storyline without the DNA tests. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIDDUM_N_STYLE Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 (edited) Thought it was a fantastic show, wasn’t too familiar with most of the NJPW talent outside of the main Gaijins (White, ZSJ, Cobb and Osprey), Okada, Tanahashi, Suzuki, Shingo and Shibata but I was impressed by a few, particularly Clark Connors, Kanemaru and the Dojo lads Wasn’t expecting Taz to be part of the announce team, and was disappointed that JR and Tony were relegated to guest roles, but I thought he, Man in Mask and Kevin Kelly blended well as a team. Also loved the contrast in styles between Justin Roberts and  Takuro Shibata on ring announcing (nice cushy job for Bobby Cruise getting to do one match too), especially for the 4 way IWGP Title match Edited June 27, 2022 by RIDDUM_N_STYLE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 Watched the press conference, what was the guy questioning Jay White about who’s leader of the bullet club after the show, thought that was all cleared up with EVIL going off to run house of torture? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRooster Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 19 hours ago, Hannibal Scorch said: so you don't want to watch a second edition from a PPV you didn't watch but others watched and enjoyed? As DavidB6937 said, I would think it's pretty clear as to why. Honestly though, I genuinely think there are people on this forum who would be more receptive to verbal takedowns of their families than they are anything that could be perceived as criticism of AEW. I'm not saying you lean quite that far, Hannibal - but I haven't come across anyone on here who has said anything negative about AEW in bad faith. 8 hours ago, RIDDUM_N_STYLE said: Wasn’t expecting Taz to be part of the announce team, and was disappointed that JR and Tony were relegated to guest roles, but I thought he, Man in Mask and Kevin Kelly blended well as a team. As I mentioned, I didn't watch the show, but if anything was going to encourage me to do so it would be Taz on the announce desk. It's impossible not to have fun when he's commentating, his enthusiasm is so bloody infectious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
