Paid Members JLM Posted July 12 Paid Members Share Posted July 12 (edited) Yeah Ospreay's promo was only a bit underwhelming this week because he's set such a shockingly high standard. Also I promise I won't just spam the thread with big images but had to post this one as well. Tremendous: Edited July 12 by JLM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merzbow Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 I've been catching up on a few shows and has that nonce Justin Roberts always said "Samooa Jew" or is this a recent weird pronounciation? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimmyAnderson Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 Swerve has to hold the title until WrestleDream, where he loses it to Hangman. It's in his hometown of Tacoma and I know that AEW are generally really good at giving people happy moments in their hometowns but a win for Page there would generate the greatest heel heat for him. "Who's house? My house" as he lifts the World Title above his head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's been a few instances of Caster saying 'we don't want them' with people linked with AEW, I think it's just a 'bit' he does. Like the way he's claimed to have been suspended numerous times on X when in reality he hasn't. I think he's just a wind-up merchant.

Paid Members JLM Posted July 13 Paid Members Share Posted July 13 As cold as I am on him at the moment, I do like that any time someone posts a picture of their Max Caster figure he tells them not to buy the Bowens one. That’s what my brother would do if we were in a tag team and had action figures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infinity Land Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 This clip from an interview was going round yesterday in response. It was from an interview back in May. Basic idea is fair: "Why would I want someone new coming in when there's a finite amount of TV time and it's already a struggle". However, the way he goes about it shows why people find it easy to hate him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If and when Hangman wins the title, I want him to be so consumed with hate that he can’t even take any joy from his victory - and to still obsess over Swerve, even though he’s technically already got his revenge. After winning his title if he does anything, I think it should be a brutal beatdown of Swerve, without even acknowledging the belt. Maybe he could stain it with Swerve’s blood or something and turn the bloody title belt into his ‘trophy’. Given how deranged he’s become, I’m not sure something as rational as closure should happen for him. Edited July 13 by RedTwoster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For all the issues AEW have had through struggling to pivot at times, when they nail the stuff they've been building for so long, you can see why they struggle to let go of it. One particular reason it's landed so well is Tori's selling - even more than the physical pain, she's just distraught and heartbroken. I honestly can't remember the last time I saw a sell-job like it. Astonishing stuff, and so painful to watch that it was difficult to separate from the performer.

Mr Butternut Squash Posted July 17 Share Posted July 17 A lot more star vs star matches recently. I'm liking it, last month has been their best run of shows in ages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Showtime Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 That opening match was something else! I was sitting in the office trying to work but couldn't keep my eyes off it. There was a section towards the very end where the speed and intensity picked up for a minute or so, and I almost stood up and applauded, I could not believe they still had it in them! Worth watching without spoilers if possible. The post-match, the audience, the commentary all entertaining too. Except that bloody "Jones" stuff, I was sick of that almost immediately after they started doing it a while back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
