Sign me the fuck up. I know a lot of people hated that concept but I loved it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Statto Posted June 19, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted June 19, 2023 Strikes me as a way to get 2 singles guys who they don't have anything else for currently into a featured spot on the Wembley card? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely not Wembley unless they end up winning the titles. Whole thing feels poorly communicated even by AEW's usual standards. No explanation as to what the Blind Eliminator is and i'd take from that post it's all wrapped up on this week's Dynamite. Which already has 4-5 matches announced. Does that make it a Tag Team Turmoil situation rather than a tournament? Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infinity Land Posted June 19, 2023 Share Posted June 19, 2023 For those that have an interest in ratings, the overnight viewership is in with 814k. A better number than any of the previous Saturday slots they have had (Dynamite/BOTB/Rampage). Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Butternut Squash Posted June 20, 2023 Share Posted June 20, 2023 Punk was great as expected. Just on a completely different level as a promo and a presence that will hook you in. However he looks like shit with the shaven look, a shame because he was as handsome as he'd ever been during his previous run. Show overall had a different feel to Dynamite which is good. Slower paced and less exhausting. Kelly and Nigel (holy shit, a TWO man booth!!) are clearly finding their feet but I prefer anything over rubbish Excalibur hyper screeching over everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members gmoney Posted June 20, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted June 20, 2023 It was very novel to be able to actually take in what was coming up on the Dynamite, rather than just a blur of noise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infinity Land Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 It appears Punk v. KENTA at Forbidden Door was the plan. With KENTA attacking after the main event to set it up. Couldn't come to terms so it didn't happen. The rumours of Punk turning up on Dynamite is potentially to get an alternative in place.

Wait, surely that can't happen! We all know Punk can't be in the same building as The Elite and their hangers-on! What has Meltzer said about this?!?

Tanahashi maybe if they keep up the ‘MJF hates New Japan’ angle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have Punk step in for MJF who refuses to wrestle, Punk wins, which then leads us nicely to the resumption of the Punk/MJF feud, which has already been hinted at with the bag in his initial promo on Saturday.

Paid Members Tommy! Posted June 22, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted June 22, 2023 I watched the first hour of the first episode and it was really enjoyable, first time in years I've really enjoyed watching new wrestling. Couldn't have cared less for punks promo, never a big fan, but it was easy enough to coast over. Wardlow vs Luchasaurus was fun beefy bloke fair and Buddy Matthews vs. Andrade El Idolo was great. The big issues I've had in the past weren't too prevalent; camera work was solid without tons of cuts, crowd were good without being annoying cunts; despite the punk opening not too much of people I can't stand. I'll certainly try to catch the rest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
