Neither can I. Haven't seen any in this thread though?

Check out  The King of Old School post after this post you sent back to me. It's all there and clear to see for everybody, you are even included in it.

@Hannibal Scorch when I said warm up the AEW threads for me, this isn't what I had in mind..

Great lineup though.

I imagine this image might be blocked depending on your settings, as it’s borderline pornographic.

Genuinely looking forward to every match bar the main event, and I wouldn't have expected to say that about a card that included Pinochet when he debuted.

The mods on here are all very reasonable people. Fair minded and nothing but straight down the line. Please report me to them and if they think I am in the wrong I will happily take whatever punishment they think is fitting. 

Don't be daft. I have never reported anyone on any forum or any kind of social media because it's not real life to me, forgotten about when logged off.

Just when another poster mentioned about online bullying, and then when listing the quotes above, I thought yeah I suppose it kind of is.

I bet you wouldnt do that in the real world so hopefully gives a bit of food for thought for yourself and the usual characters for future pile ons. Could have easily ignored or scrolled past if the question wasn't up to your standards.

Anyway huge apologies to Kamran for derailing his thread.

Looking forward to watching parts of this next week.

A lovely attempt to claim the moral high ground and have the last word but you've been seen now. 

My apologies also to Kamran, anyone who knows who Momo Watanabe is, with or without Google and to all of our posters who've had to put up with this shite.

Fantasy booking alert: 

Spoiler

I reckon Cope will beat Mox, Christian will run in to cash in but then Jay White steals the contract (or you could have Jay nick it earlier in the show) signs it, turns on Cope and leaves with the belt.

You've ended the long running main storyline, sown seeds for an E&C reunion (both got screwed) and set a new top heel with his own band of goons.

Plus if Hangman finishes building back up to the title scene and redemption it means he has to beat the one person that's always had his number.

Also, I offered KOTOS some advice, I like the way that’s being turned into bullying

Tony Khan's media call included a question where he was asked about the John Cena turn and if he was re-evaluating his plans. What a tit. Although he gave a sensible answer. Anyway 2 things which were more interesting and relevant was this about the new Amazon deal and why it's not still on Max even though it was announced as part of the TV Deal:

 

“Max is still going to be a great home to AEW pay-per-view. It’s not a technology that has been part of the Max service previously, before AEW landed on this great platform. We’re very excited to have AEW TV streaming on Max every week. I can’t wait to have the upcoming AEW pay-per-views there in the future. We have all the past AEW Revolution events streaming now on Max. I look forward to when fans can buy the pay-per-views there. It’s something we all want, and I know they are working on developing that tech in the platform because it’s not something Max has ever offered before. I’m very excited to have all of these great pay-per-view providers. We’ve been working with great providers over the past years, and we still have great experiences working with them. Now, we’ve added a new provider, and it’s one of the largest companies in the world, and that is Amazon.”

He continued, “We’re very excited fans can buy AEW Revolution and future pay-per-views on Prime. To be on one of the largest streaming services to sell our pay-per-views, that’s huge. In the future, we’ll continue with a lot of great providers and Max. Max will be the home for all of AEW in the future, and we’ll continue to work with great media companies. One thing that has been great about Warner Brothers Discovery and Max is the success they’ve had with collaborations. We love collaborating with Warner Brothers Discovery. We look at some of the real successes that have really paid off for Warner Brothers Discovery in streaming, and it’s a lot of great collaborations. I saw recently that the bundle was the least churned, the stickiest bundle in all of streaming, and really the stickiest package in all of streaming is the Disney-Max bundle. That’s exciting to see the company having so much success and that it’s the most successful package in all of streaming. Max will be a great pay-per-view home for us going forward, absolutely.” 

He was also asked about the recent releases and changes to how he's run things.

“I do think it’s a case-by-case basis. I think everything is a case-by-case basis, and so much of life is a case-by-case basis. Philosophically, there is a change in what I’ve been doing. It felt like the right thing for the company and everyone involved at this point. That’s the thinking behind that. It’s on a case by case basis and they are all different situations. In this case, they did have similar outcomes. It’s fair to ask why now and why I wouldn’t have done that before. I just decided that’s what I thought was the right thing to do at this point.”

I presume there is no chance in Toni/Mariah headlining?

Shame as from the bits I have seen it seems the perfect choice.

I'd imagine not. If ever there was a time for a womens match to headline a ppv this is it so it is a shame 

[Kamran]

At the Queen of the Ring movie premiere, Mariah went for Toni:

As others have said, they could easily main event the PPV although I wonder if they'll start it earlier in the night and have it go on throughout the show. As it's falls count anywhere they could go all over the place and have a lot of fun with it.

A few nods to the Hollywood Backlot Brawl, please.

Dustin just was tweeting the other day how he wanted to do another? Wonder if this is how he does it, through May/Storm

[Chili]

Whilst I wouldn't mind it main eventing, it all depends on the format of what angles they might be planning with other matches, so I'm not too bothered where it ends up on the card, nor would I feel the women not headlining is a sign they're being held down or not capable of it.

That running through the show Backlot Brawl idea sounds amazing. I'd be game for that!

[Hannibal Scorch]

AEW have a habit of opening a PPV and closing the show with big matches. I can easily see this going on first and I’ll be happy with that,

It honestly wouldn't surprise me, he's been backstage working/training with the women pretty much since he joined AEW, hasn't he?
