Are we going to live post here? Or maybe on Mastodon?

Rules: (Click to expand)
1. Be Civil.
Users are expected to be civil and inclusive towards one another at all times. Remember the person on the other side of the screen. Hate speech, racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia and other inflammatory language is prohibited.
2. Keep content related to wrestling.
Any content posted should at least be related to pro wrestling somehow.
3. Spoilers.
Do not spoil events for people. If an event is going on, please keep discussion contained to the/a discussion thread for 24h after the event. Do not post spoilers in titles during this period. Use the spoiler function when you need to, it's there for a reason. Should your post involve a url to a spoiler (Twitter, YouTube video, etc) please mark the thread as NSFW as well so thumbnails are blurred.
4. Vague/Editorialized Title.
Please keep the titles of any articles you post clear, understandable, and indicative of what the article states within. It's ok to alter the title if the original is clickbait and confusing, or contains a spoiler like a debut that just occurred that day, but do not add your own thoughts to it.
5. Sexualized Content/'Plot'.
Please do not post any pornographic, 'creep shot', or similar adult-related material to the community (regardless of connection to wrestling). Wrestling content that involves sexualized content (in storylines/matches/promos) is fine, as well as photo's wrestlers post to their own social medias. Butt-shots you take with your cell phone at a house show aren't.

Here, as we always do. Anyone who wishes to live post on Mastodon or anywhere else is more than welcome to as well lol.
We always do the live thread here, but definitely feel free to post in Mastodon as well.
Sooooooooooo........wait. Are we just going to ignore the devil stuff, and say Cole is a face now?
Coming back from a long-term injury almost always results in a face turn, it's not a new thing. It's been happening for as long as I can remember. He can always turn heel again in the future, wrestling has more turns than NASCAR.
That HHH return pop back in the day still lives rent free in my head.
Bro, that's the exact example that came to my mind as I was typing that.
Cole is the face, the mask was on his face. Now it's off so he's a face again /s idk lol
This is going to be the first AEW PPV I'm not watching live. Not a failing on AEW's part, other than scheduling a PPV on Yom Kippur. Looking forward to seeing it tomorrow.
Enjoy the show, folks!
Rick Knox is the Elites Nick Patrick
Not AEW's best show, I'll admit, but I still enjoyed it and was pleasantly surprised that some of my match predictions were wrong.
The end of the main event, though... FUUUUUCK.
Hated the end of the show, if that was Bryans end, fine, but the whole thing was ugh.
Also could have used (in addition to more NJPW people which I think ive mentioned earlier) more women on the show.
Hopefully it goes somewhere interesting but I think I'm still blegh on Mox as champ again. The roster is so stacked I don't need him as a 4x champ
I'm ok with it but I kinda wanted at least another month or so build first. This is too soon into his new schtick.
I suspect Danielson's neck surgery needs to happen sooner rather than later and the timeline got accelerated.
Yeah I'm sure it was Danielsons wish to put Mox over etc. My hope was that Christian somehow walked out as champ last night but ig he wants to extend his reign as the next AEW World Champion
Jack Perry is such a little shithead
In the best way possible.
Fucking Rico rofl
Nice win by Cage, good to see him with a non tag/trio/ftw title win.
That ending made me sad and almost embarrassed to sit through.
Though me and my wife kept yelling 'here comes the money!' thinking something would happen. Oh well.
I'm getting kind of tired. This ppv isn't really doing it for me since the 3 way.
It's a lackluster card, which was thrown together and rushed, and they burned through all the interesting stuff besides the Danialson match early on.
Also AEW ppvs are like 7 hours. I'm exaggerating, but if you include the preshow, I might not be.....that's the messed up part.
In hindsight, all the interesting stuff was first
I definitely feel they could have included like...one NJPW guy on the card at least given the point of this yearly PPV is to celebrate the life of Antonio Inoki, you'd imagine some NJPW inclusion would be a mandatory requirement besides the token 45 second appearance by his bored children. I know we're 2-2.5mo away from the big NJPW inclusion week so maybe they didn't wanna bring people in but Tony you control the dates the shows occur on too lol.
Hologram just slammed his head into the ground. Hope he's ok.
Guess Don got what he wanted from Ospreay. Took his title and his BF
ππ How is Adam Cole a face in all of this?
Right???
Wrestling fans have a 2mo memory usually. He's been gone long enough so boom: instaface #kayfabelogic
Damn you straight to Hell Fletcher
Oh my god.....the coffee website is real, and their logo is a cartoon prince nana doing his dance.
I can't keep up lol, I had no idea this was tonight, and I've been watching. Gotta catch up on Rampage and hopefully sneak in Impact
Gotta catch up on Rampage and hopefully sneak in Impact
Just did that a few mins ago myself lmao
We're watching Rampage now. Obviously Impact isn't necessary, but it turns out I really like TNA
Edit: you have Acclaimed and MxM in pre-show and main card
I blame Cagematch for that :P fixed, ty.
TNA is def good stuff.
Jay is slick af. Working the knee just kept on paying dividends
I think last year, this show ended with Adam Copeland's debut. Think they'll do something cool this year?
Those might be the first machine gun chops I've actually liked
