I'm still happy Thunder Rosa is back. It was a pretty good episode, nothing mind-blowing but felt like the good old days of Dynamite. I love Daily's place.

Hangman gets it done. It'll be interesting to see what he does next. Another feud with Swerve or a match with Samoa Joe?

Neon_Carnivore@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y

Yes.

Montagge@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y (1 reply)

I'm hoping they come back to Swerve in the future and have him go after Joe or OC

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y

Hangman vs. OC would be great! So would Joe but I don't want Hangman to lose lol. Joe's reign is just getting started, I'm guessing he'll hold it for a few PPV's at least...or whenever Twisted Metal starts filming lol.

DigitalGemini@mastodon.social · 3 pts · 2y

@TellumSiege Probably both. I think heโ€™ll cost Swerve a win in a title match. He may also get a win against Swerve, but Swerve may get the title toward end of the year after Joe has his run.

Travon333@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Chaotic segment

Joe is a such a distinguished looking champ, even has his own custom side plates

Swerve immediately going for the gold and Hangman hasn't forgotten about either of them. Definite triple threat and I think Joe retains. I don't think anyone has won the AEW championship on their first try

Hook has Joe's respect, didn't take his eyes off of him until he left

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y

A triple threat doesn't sound too bad. It's probably the only way I'd be okay with Swerve and Hangman losing.

Travon333@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Just realized most of OCs moveset is counters

His laziness knows no bounds

Montagge@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y

Why do moves when opponent do moves for you?

Travon333@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y (2 replies)

๐Ÿ˜ฌWe're sticking with the new Rosa theme?

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y

Boooooo!

GeekFTW@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y

Sad days.

ImADifferentBird@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 5 pts · 2y (4 replies)

Great show tonight. Hit it out of the park for the Homecoming.

Just two issues with the show:

  • The Jericho bit was weird. You could tell they were going out of their way to cover up any possible negative reactions from the crowd, and that's never a good look.

  • They did the segments honoring Brodie Lee, and featured Preston Vance and Anna Jay both getting the win for their teams as part of the tribute... but no Dark Order, the team he led? Hopefully they show up on Rampage.

Montagge@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y

All of Jericho's bits have been weird recently

GeekFTW@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y (2 replies)

They did the segments honoring Brodie Lee, and featured Preston Vance and Anna Jay both getting the win for their teams as part of the tributeโ€ฆ but no Dark Order, the team he led? Hopefully they show up on Rampage.

Yeah I'm wondering the logic behind that. Both these people left DO, why not have actual DO involved? lol

Montagge@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y

It was really weird that they were left out, and as a DO fan a bit infuriating

ImADifferentBird@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 4 pts · 2y

I mean, I get their involvement, considering Brodie was known to be extremely fond of both of them. But I still feel like DO was snubbed.

Daily's Place!!!!

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 4 pts · 2y (8 replies)

I know it's AEW's home but I'm not crazy about the Daily's Place shows. It reminds me of the pandemic and I hate being reminded of those dark days lol.

Montagge@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y (7 replies)

True, but at the same time I have a special place for pandemic era AEW

Neon_Carnivore@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y (5 replies)

I don't think I could have gotten through the pandemic without wrestling. For me, Daily's is AEW's version of the Manhattan Center.

Montagge@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y

It definitely gave me something to look forward to every week!

JamesCooke@mastodonapp.uk · 2 pts · 2y (3 replies)

@Neon_Carnivore @TellumSiege @Montagge compare it to the Thunderdome at the time, and Daily's place actually helped to forget for a couple of hours that the world was shut down. I even used to tune in to Dark religiously back then.

Montagge@kbin.social · 2 pts · 2y (2 replies)

@JamesCooke Me too! I miss Dark and Elevation!

JamesCooke@mastodonapp.uk · 2 pts · 2y (1 reply)

@Montagge @TellumSiege @Neon_Carnivore I used to put them on in the background while working - even when looking away from the screen, the commentary was fantastic entertainment!

Montagge@kbin.social · 1 pts · 2y

@JamesCooke It was essentially a podcast at times lol

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y

That's fair. BTE and Sammy's vlog were in their prime back then.

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Julia forgot which team she was on ๐Ÿ˜‚

Montagge@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y

Julia is on Julia's team!

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y (4 replies)

Any chance the Young Bucks interrupt?

Travon333@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y (1 reply)

๐Ÿค”๐Ÿค” Maybe we see the Young Bucks at Battle of the Belts

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y

Hopefully. I'm so ready for them to come back. I wonder if they'll feud with Undisputed Kingdom right away?

cupcakezealot@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 5 pts · 2y (1 reply)

can u pls tell me the lottery numbers

Neon_Carnivore@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y

Comments like this is why I still come to read these discussion threads 12 hours after the show has ended.

csm10495@sh.itjust.works · 5 pts · 2y

Y'all see the two Daddy Magics at the end?

Travon333@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y

Cole love bombing his friends and trying it on Wardlow who doesn't seem convinced.

Also wearing a wolves hoodie, I hope Cole isn't delusional enough to believe Wardlow is going to hand over the title

cupcakezealot@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 5 pts · 2y

the young bucks did this purposely so ill never be able to tell who's who again ๐Ÿ˜”

When Nana dances Tellum smiles.

Montagge@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y

Prince Nana was dancing like you were going to stuff a Grant in his pants

Neon_Carnivore@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y

What does Nana do when Tellum dances?

Travon333@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y

I can appreciate that Brian Cage is down for whatever as long as he gets his shit in

Travon333@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y (4 replies)

All of that was bit strange but I guess I'm OK with it as long as this means Ricky and Big Bill retain

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y (3 replies)

My guess is they do. Sammy winning kinda confirms that for me.

And yeah that was weird lol. Even Judas didn't sound right.

ImADifferentBird@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 5 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Pretty sure they recut it and kept it playing to drown out any potential NDA chants.

DigitalGemini@mastodon.social · 3 pts · 2y

@ImADifferentBird @TellumSiege I was thinking the same thing. They were blasting the music throughout.

Montagge@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y

Also it's battle of the belts

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y (3 replies)

Swerve, Hangman, I'm guessing Hooks next to come out?

Montagge@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y (2 replies)

You called it lol

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Wasn't expecting the Hook signal though lol

GeekFTW@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y

Travon333@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y

Adam Cole just can't stop seducing groups of men to fan boy over him excluding Kenny, Jay and most likely Wardlow too

ArnoldBooker@mastodon.social · 5 pts · 2y (1 reply)

@TellumSiege hello from Mastodon! :) Still get a kick out of this.

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y

Nice! I didn't even know you guys could see our threads. Good to know.

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Damn, Roddy's pretty ripped for a guy who's been in a wheelchair the last few months.

Travon333@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y

Roddy is superhuman, I'm pretty sure another man would've been paralyzed with the neck damage he's taken

Travon333@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y (8 replies)

If Hangman wins will he be first the first person to have beaten all of the BCC in singles matches in AEW

  • Eddie'l seems to have already done it
TellumSiege@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y (7 replies)

I think so. I can't think of anyone else. Garcia might be the closest with wins over BD and Yuta (I think?).

Travon333@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y (6 replies)

Yeah Claudio pretty much never loses and odds are your not fighting Yuta too often if your feuding with Danielson or Moxley

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y (5 replies)

True. BCC doesn't have that "final boss" structure like MJF had with his stables. Basically, when you feud with one member of the BCC you don't have to face the others first.

Montagge@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y (2 replies)

Which I love about BCC

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Same. I love that they don't really have a leader. But it's fair to say Yuta's on the bottom lol

Travon333@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y

Just young boy things

Travon333@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Funny enough I think MJF only needs to beat Claudio.

He won it from Mox and defended against Danielson. And I rememver one of Yutas first live promos was challenging MJF

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y

Good catch. Man, you remember this stuff way better than I do ๐Ÿ˜‚

So are we getting a Mogul Embassy vs Lance Archer and The Righteous 6 man title match out of this

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y

I'm down! It's about time we see the Righteous again. Seems like they lost to MJF and bounced...

Rofl at OC trying the chokeslam

Of course Mogul Embassy doesn't play nice with others

Takes Flair 28 years to get out of the ring mid-match and he still wants to have another match or twelve rofl.
