Awards Moderator HarmonicGenerator Posted August 27, 2023 Awards Moderator Share Posted August 27, 2023 I’ve had a fantastic time. Feels like I’ve seen a proper, real, big time AEW show and I can’t wait to watch it back. Highlights were Joe, Sue, Seek & Destroy and there being a happy ending. My wife had sworn beforehand she was going to leave after two hours because no wrestling show should be longer than an episode of TV but she ended up staying for the whole thing and even got invested in whether Adam Cole would turn or not. She’s already said she’ll go again next year. Find yourself someone who’ll sit through five and a half hours of wrestling with you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d-d-d-dAz Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 That was incredible. Simply incredible. I don’t know how to embed things, but my seats were worth the divorce they could have caused; https://www.instagram.com/p/CwdsgLGM09y/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The King Of Swing Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 Oh and Sue got a new Van and a Wembley payday. Was that skin hanging off of Mox? Disgusting. Having the ROH tag title match on the buy in, was a smart move imo. Gave fans an actual reason to arrive early. MJF breaking down post match when Cole chucked the ROH Tag belt was tremendous. When he's not going full shooty bollocks, he's untouchable imo.

Paid Members LaGoosh Posted August 27, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted August 27, 2023 Special props to the guy sat in front of me in the CM Punk shirt and with the CM Punk sign who left the show immediately after CM Punk's match finished and never returned.

Infinity Land Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 Media scrum is being used to set up some All Out matches. Takeshita v. Omega. On Dynamite OC defends the International title against Penta. Winner faces Moxley at the PPV. Scrum started by saying they won't talk about Punk/Perry incident and its being investigated.

Be interesting to see if they can pull it off again. I think getting 80k again will be tough but people had said lucky to get 30k for this, I thought 50k would be a success. I'm certain they can get 50k. I think they will have to promote it differently. This was biggest UK show ever, first time at Wembley Stadium for 31 years. I saw people there who had come from abroad for it, they need to give them a reason to come back.

I had a guy near(ish) me in a CMFTR shirt who didn’t seem arsed by either CM Punk’s or FTR’s matches, which is a shame as they were bangers.

Paid Members WeeAl Posted August 27, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted August 27, 2023 My dear god, I never want to see that picture of Moxley ever again. I've struggled to get it out of my head ever since. Going to need to take a basin to bed here as I feel sick as a pig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Where'd you come from?" Phoenix, Arizona. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can’t drive stick though can she.  Felt a bit bad for Meltzer as he clearly had enough of people taking photos around this time as he started moving up the steps with each one. And didn’t help he had a drunk bloke shouting seven stars at him which made him more fed up. Good of him though.  Great show. Really enjoyed the Stadium Stampede and Jericho vs Ospreay was way better than I thought it would be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The King Of Swing Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 Fair play to Kip, I thought he made a decent panelist on the buy in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TildeGuy~! Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 Left before the main event started so I’ll watch it tomorrow morning, really great show can’t wait for next year! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidB6937 Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 Smart move for them to announce the next show early to be honest. Pipped WWE to the post if they had any big return plans. Always best to catch people while they're all hyped up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve never wanted to see a match more than that main event tonight. I was absolutely beside myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
