Off-topic: I really hope the green font comes back when you upvote/boost on Kbin.

Travon333@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y (2 replies)

Weird on the mobile app, one comment has the green upvote and the others didn't change at all

I also want the green upvotes to come back

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Yeah I see that too. Must be a bug or something I guess?

GeekFTW@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

Yeah over the last day or two I've seen the green, but it's real inconsistent. As someone with ADHD I need that to stop me losing my place XD

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

also riho is better than you (and you know it)

ItsWizardTime@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 2y (1 reply)

My money is on Jay, Briscoe is a tag specialist and the story can be all about Briscoe having to step back and reevaluate his style and come up for the TNT title.

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

Good point. And Briscoe bringing up that he's a rookie in singles action is a good way to protect his losses.

Travon333@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

Can't say MJF doesn't deserve the aggressive attention he gets. He's always picking a new fight

Travon333@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

😂😂 I love that Taz just melts for Timeless Toni

Travon333@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Christian is able to be a scumbag through Schiavone

What a father figure

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

Slap the yellow off your teeth

God damn Christian lol

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y (1 reply)

I'm thinking Briscoe takes this. Then a pissed off Lethal might distance himself from Planet Jarrett...

GeekFTW@kbin.social · 2 pts · 2y

Just starting the match now and that's my thoughts. TK drops lots of clues that he doesn't follow up on but this would be a nice one to go with. Give Jay something to do as well.

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y (1 reply)

What a match. We got ourselves a three-way!!

GeekFTW@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

I'm glad TK didn't wimp out and go with decisive block winners, given the whole point of RR tournaments is to have possible situations like this one.

Travon333@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y (4 replies)

Jericho still snuck in that it was most important that he's pulling for him and he's not out of the Golden Jets vortex yet

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

It'd be nice if they lost/had to forfeit their shot at the belts. Or if there was some kind of tag match tonight to see who replaces them at Worlds End.

Travon333@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y (2 replies)

I feel like this promo was basically like give us one more week before we have a solid plan

GeekFTW@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

Definitely.

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 2 pts · 2y

lmao I could see it. Maybe we'll get a match on Collision or something.

GeekFTW@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

That finish from Roddy was money lol

Travon333@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

I like Sarayas brand of Wrestling Karen

Travon333@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y (2 replies)

Rush has done well in this tournament. I liked him as Andrades top guy, but him as a singles is entertaining.

Hes wrestles like a bull charging at you and always look strong even if he loses

GeekFTW@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

Hes wrestles like a bull charging at you and always look strong even if he loses

Ironically the best way to have worded that ;) I agree.

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

He's impressed the hell out of me. I wasn't crazy about him at first but that match he had with Danielson a while back really opened my eyes.

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

Love the crowd shouting "Renee!!" right after Roddy does lol

cupcakezealot@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 3 pts · 2y (1 reply)

joe was so quick to accept the challenge 🤔

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

I could definitely see him being in cahoots with the devil.

Travon333@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Love that the Kingdom signs are in the same font as the titantron font

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

Damn good catch. It does look the same.

Travon333@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

So in kayfabe TK has to be the worst neogitator.

Buckled to MJF for more money on same years and Toni somehow has automatic B/W powers

ItsWizardTime@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y (2 replies)

So, someone is getting unmasked next week right?

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

I hope so. It's about damn time someone gets unmasked.

GeekFTW@kbin.social · 2 pts · 2y

Yeah I am rapidly losing interest in seeing these two getting punked by Local Masked Talents #256459™. Stop edging us and finish the damn job so we can get on with our day lol.

Travon333@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

Roddy is so pathetic man, he got dumped Adam Cole so now he's pouring all his energy into his Best Friend by Proxy

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

Who do you think wins: Moxley or White?

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

I'm going White for some sexy three-way shenanigans (Swerve-Mox-White final).

ItsWizardTime@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 2y (1 reply)

This! Mox puts them both over and Swerve gets the win, Jay starts a feud with BCC blaming moxley for his loss.

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

I'd want Swerve to win too. And BCC versus BBG would be a good time. I like it.

Travon333@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Same as you Jay steals it to go 2-0 vs Mox

I hope Jay wins it overall so they can build him back up and Swerve can beat Mox 1v1 and move on to chasing the AEW title

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

I'd love that outcome. Then maybe Mox can take that vacation he more than deserves lol

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

Roddy's starting to look like a dad in a goofy sitcom.

cupcakezealot@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 3 pts · 2y (1 reply)

now i want a remake of step by step with roddy as patrick duffy

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

Book it Tony! And God I miss that TGIF lineup.

Travon333@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y (1 reply)

LFG!

Can't let Jay stick around, hes a little cockroach and counters everything

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

For awhile it looked like they were both countering everything the other threw at them. It was awesome.

Travon333@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y (1 reply)

So Samoa Joe and MJF vs The Kingdom

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 2 pts · 2y

That or maybe Wardlow and Roddy.

Travon333@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y (1 reply)

😂😂 Of course Toni still doesn't remember who Mariah May is

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 2 pts · 2y

Apparently that fan didn't either lol

Travon333@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y (1 reply)

MJF seems to attract bullies who won't take no for an answer. First Joe and now Wardlow

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

At least these bullies aren't using rolls of quarters on him 😂

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

Wow. I'm kinda surprised Riho won. Especially so clean.

Travon333@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

Joe is so intense. He's the last guy I would want to piss off

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

The scorecard in the blue league was so close to being nice lol

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Ref catching the chair 😂

GeekFTW@kbin.social · 2 pts · 2y

Love when the timing works like that lol

Edit: lmao, twice!

Edit 2: Third times the charm rofl! Mark Briscoe is too good for this world.

Travon333@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

Just want to point out that knocking MJF out still benefitted him since he has a messed up hip

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

Gimme more MJF/Swerve promos please and thank you

Travon333@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

Brute force vs finesse

I still think Swerve takes it though

*Also Swerve's shoulder vs Rush's Hamstring
C2 has been wearing these men down

cupcakezealot@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 3 pts · 2y (1 reply)

roddy really is an inspiration to everyone

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

He deserves two Christmas's for everything he's been through.

Travon333@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y (2 replies)

Wtf Lethal using the Jay Driller

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Right before getting finished with it lol

Travon333@kbin.social · 2 pts · 2y

😂Serves him right

Travon333@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

Did Toni just imply the only time she's alive is during a match

Travon333@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

Respect that Mox knows not to even engage with Jay's mind games

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 2 pts · 2y

Wasn't Rocky heel a week ago? 😂

Travon333@kbin.social · 2 pts · 2y

Komander deserves this for disrespecting #NeckStrong

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

Amd where is Chuck Taylor? Did I miss something?

Travon333@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y (1 reply)

He's been injured

But this notably feels like the first time they acknowledge someone is out injured instead of them just disappearing

TellumSiege@kbin.social · 2 pts · 2y

That makes sense. It sucks he's injured but I'm glad it's not a case of him not being used. I love me some Chucky T.

davidaprice@mastodon.social · 1 pts · 2y (2 replies)

@TellumSiege Home with an injury. I think his foot or leg.

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

That's too bad. Hopefully he isn't out for too long.

It seems like every tag team in AEW has someone injured. Best Friends, Lucha Bros., Bucks, MJF/Cole, Jericho/Omega, Aussie Open...

davidaprice@mastodon.social · 1 pts · 2y

@TellumSiege You’re right. At least the Martin brothers are back together.

Hopefully tomorrow’s Hardys vs Kingdom match ends with everyone intact.
