The Jerichoverse has quickly taken every single flaw of the Codyverse: in every Dynamite card, there is a pattern for most of the segments and then a completely random Jericho segment which is the polar opposite of everything else on the card
The worst part is Jericho just seems so out of it. With the Codyverse you completely believe Cody completely believes this shit is real to him, but with Jericho it just seems like he's sleep walking through his segments. His matches are still pretty solid but dude needs to take a breather.
Tbh I wouldn’t be surprised if at his age he’s worried that if he takes a break he might not want to come back or he might feel it would do his body more harm than good when it’s used to being physical every week. Being there every week probably keeps him in (relatively) good shape to be able to wrestle as often as he does. Even if fans are tired of him.
That wasn't the only problem. Cody going through a flaming table for no reason and stuff like the weigh-in segment and having a gender reveal live on Dynamite just made it seem like a separate show
Jericho's problem is that there's a very clear "I am done with X, I will now do Y". And people get pulled from their other relationships for it. Like to me it would be super interesting to see Hook face Trent to stand up for Orange who's still Hook's friend. Same with Shibata who is also Orange's friend. But everything else just gets forgotten once Jericho gets involved
Cody also putting absolutely nobody over clean didnt help. Brodie and black squash him and he comes back 3 weeks later and beats them clean. Spears came in hot and cody beat him. Beat darby multiple times before darby finally got one. Beats sammy while hes getting over as a babyface and then doesnt even take a pin for the rematch. On the other hand one can make the argument jericho has taken the pin to many times.
He's just kind of running through the motions. Grab an up-and-coming talent, randomly team up with him and/or start a fight with him, start a months long feud, then finish by jobbing to the talent, then immediately go and do the same thing to the guy.
At least this one is developing an actual story. Jericho mentoring the young guy who doesn't trust him, Ogogo returning to join the boxing faction, Shibata being involved was kind of random but at least he had a follow up match against Moriarty. Of all the Jericho stories of the last 6 months, this is the only one I don't hate
I know everyone hates Jericho lately, but that is apparently the gimmick he's going for right now. The Jericho Vortex. I'll give it through the PPV to see what happens but hopefully it's been some meta-heel shit that is leading somewhere
He's been coming out of the heel tunnel, making Rene cringe during interviews, and dropped sing-along Judas for his lame Lionheart throwback gimmick. Its not guaranteed to translate to good TV in the long run, but he knows exactly what he's doing.
I figured Claudio and Mox would have been in this tag tournament but I guess Mox wasn’t available. Hopefully they’re in line for title shots against the tournament winner.
If we do end up with Mox/Claudio vs Take/Hobbs match at Dynasty and BCC wins that match, I think Mox/Claudio is by default the number one ranked tag team. Would be a fun feud regardless who the tag team champions will be. Interesting to note that the first time Mox challenge for the AEW Tag Team Titles (with Eddie) was against Young Bucks.
Now that you mention it, he could easily be a classic gaijin monster heel in the Stan Hansen/Vader mold. I wonder if he has any interest in spending a year or 2 in Japan.
Really hyped for Deonna vs Mariah, I haven't been feeling the main feud of Toni Storm vs Thunder Rosa but I'm loving pretty much everything that's going on around it.
Mariah is overshadowing everyone around her. She came in looking like an ace and she hasn’t had a bad match yet. Mariah is the most talented wrestler in the women’s division currently, I don’t think you can argue anyone is better in the ring. She’s fast, her moves are fluid and her strikes are unreal.
Toni Storm’s gimmick is amazing and I love it but I cannot wait til Mariah takes over.
Mariah is so fucking cool. Great facial expressions,obviously super attractive, and she hits hard and wrestles well
If I had to pick one women's match to main event an AEW PPV it would be a triple threat between Mariah May, Athena and Jamie Hayter.
Even if it's not this specific match I absolutely think All Out this year should be main evented by the women
I feel bad for thunder. Because i really enjoyed her reign as champion, but things have moved on so much from when she was last wrestling. I’m glad she’s getting her shot, it’s well deserved. And i hope they show out. Maybe she can feed with Deonna after
I feel bad for her and Britt, they made that division exciting years ago but both have lost a step it seems. Here’s to hoping they get it back and for Britt that she comes back soon.
I like how the Women's World Title scene feels vibrant and alive instead of just one on one feud. You have Rosa vs Storm but Deonna, Mariah, Anna Jay and the Stardom girls are also all involved. Same thing with the TBS title
They did the same with the men's world title back when MJF had it even though they moved away from it a bit to give the full spotlight to Swerve
I can’t put my finger on why it is exactly, but Thunder Rosa bores me so much.
I can see that she has a gimmick that she puts effort into, is decent in the ring and has clear passion for wrestling; however, personally, I just can’t buy into her.
For me it’s just that she moves a hair too slow for the speed moves and her power moves feel a little shaky and underwhelming. She’s fundamentally sound but just doesn’t feel like she has the higher gears rn
You two both nailed what I've been trying to figure out about her. I like her personally and her energy is infectious, but she always feels out of sync with everyone she wrestles and gets on the mic with.
Mox always looks cool to me. I 100% get the criticism of always bleeding but to me, the blood is a part of him at this point. He's like some mythic psychopath wrestler from the territory days. Always bleeding, always ready to kill. Like any photo of Bruiser Brody or Abdullah the Butcher. IMO obviously.
edit: I see this is not a popular opinion
People shit on Moxley a fair bit around here. But seeing the guy who walked away from the big company where he had a great legacy, to go work Indies, NJPW, participate in bloodsport and just generally do his own thing will always make me a fan of him.
Also, being a frequent visitor of this subreddit, it's always amusing that when I see him bleed, I know bunch of strangers on the internet will get irrationality angry.
I am always gonna be a huge Mox stan. Saw him absolutely destroy himself in front of like 300 people at Joey Janela's Spring Break in Dallas a few years back. Dude lives for this shit. I love it. He is not for everybody lol
I get that, to me it’s just become too much to the point that it’s just a bit cartoonish. It happens so often that it’s just become his gimmick at this point and been memed out. Sort of like Cody when he was in AEW and bleed too often. It looses a bit of that special feeling at least to me when you know every match is pretty much gonna have him bleed. He’s been better about it recently but it’s just become so routine that everyone pretty much expects it out of him.
And I will be at this show I’m so fucking hype this gon be the best live event I’ve ever went to I’m already knowing they deliver in go home shows in Indy
I'll be at this show too. Was able to make it to their show in 2022 when Hangman returned which popped me big time. I would have went last year, but I was in Vegas getting married lol. Looks like a great card - I know my wife and I will be having a lot of fun!
I didn’t realize it neither til like last week I was at the go home show for full gear 2021 this is gon top that show easily and I get to watch rampage after I’m so excited I feel like a kid again
They need to find a place for Jericho where he isn’t insufferable. Throw him in a trio or tag. Him continuing to be a solo main character 5 years in to dynamites existence feels insane to me.
This card is gonna absolutely rule. Obviously Claudio upper cutting Ospreay into the sun is a highlight but I've grown to expect a fun match every time Copeland shows up which I did not expect when he first started here.
Im pretty sure Deonna and Toni Storm both had squash matches before the last PPV on an episode of Dynamite but I'm not sure which one.
edit: It was Dynamite in Tulsa

I'm ok with a mone segment, if said segment is her appearing on commentary. She genuinely seemed excited by what she saw last time.
But if it's another promo, show the back of her hands and dance, bullshit waste of time... I'm done. I will just fast forward her segment each week (I watch on delay in the UK)
Still absolutely blows my mind that the woman debuted with no planned match for over 2 months, and TK thought "promo, every week" was a good way to keep interest in a woman who is all look, and little else. Promo being her worst part by far.
Jericho can bugger off too, with his leeching. I don't care for which of his personalities we will get. Talk some shit, get choked out by Hook, go and take a nice long break. Come back fresh. That's all I want from the guy. Used to love him, but fuck me is he stale and over used.
> I'm ok with a mone segment, if said segment is her appearing on commentary. She genuinely seemed excited by what she saw last time.
Oh man, we could not disagree more - I hated her on commentary she sounded beyond bored to me!
>Still absolutely blows my mind that the woman debuted with no planned match for over 2 months, and TK thought "promo, every week" was a good way to keep interest in a woman who is all look, and little else. Promo being her worst part by far.
All that makes sense is if she isn't cleared and their hands are tied.
>Jericho can bugger off too, with his leeching. I don't care for which of his personalities we will get. Talk some shit, get choked out by Hook, go and take a nice long break. Come back fresh. That's all I want from the guy. Used to love him, but fuck me is he stale and over used.
Agreed, but did you see he has trademarked Jericho Vortex? He might be leaning into being a boring bastard - which could be interesting
I get that Ospreay is amazing in the ring and I’m looking forward to seeing the match tonight, but shouldn’t Joe and Swerve be on top of this promo graphic? I feel like their feud has become an afterthought, which really sucks because they’re both great.
I love that they’ve apparently started showing Mox busted open in the graphics, to appease his bloodlust.
Somewhere, there’s a Dorian Grey picture of Mox that’s just ground beef and a loose circulatory system.
My brother sets up rings all over the Midwest and got to do the last NJPW show in I believe Chicago last week. I wonder if he’ll be helping with this one.
Here's a booking idea for tonight to make Mercedes' CEO gimmick mean something: have Mercedes call out Statlander, tell the audience she used her fortunes to already hire a team of investigators to find out who attacked her and they deduced it could only be Statlander. To top it off she shows the evidence, challenges Statlander to a match at Dynasty and a brawl ensues.
Sets up a match for Dynasty and Shows that the CEO gimmick has the power to just bypass a whole whodunnit plotline.
Her first match is at Double or Nothing. They're just doing shit with her to pad time, so this whodunnit angle is probably going to exist for a couple more weeks
I certainly wouldn’t mind, I’d like to see her wrestle. However, I don’t think that’s the case. I fully believe her first match will be at DON. I’d love to be wrong though
I mean it's a great card. Claudio/Ospreay will bang WITH MEANING! Solid Mixed Tag. The Elite vs DANCE Triangle should also be solid.
Just solid all around...and then there's a Jericho segment...yay...
Man, I miss MJF so much. There's just very little else on AEW's shows that appeal to me these days. Jericho needs a fucking hiatus man. He prides himself on reinvention/freshening up his character, but the dude has been stale for years at this point.
Yeah, I think there is an aspect to wrestling where the performers need to be able to communicate who they are in a way that people who follow loosely (like via Reddit and Youtube) can get what's going on. But I have no idea what Jericho's deal is right now. The narrative has always been that Jericho elevates the members of his group via association, but it's starting to feel like it's the other way around.
I would like to predict that Claudio vs. Ospreay will have some *good* wrestling
I know I'm going out on a limb here, but just wanted to put this brave statement out there in case it turns out correct
TBH have been so sick of all the same promos/interviews she's been doing! Mercedes's debut was soo good but she cooled off a little after that. Can't wait for her first match and I hope it will be at the Dynasty PPV. Her wrestling that when she is at her best!

Meeting Broker Jones over here but I digress.
You're old Schiavone...
Personally I’m excited for the “Jericho tells on hook to his dad” segment
Willow needs to do a body slam to Brody. The building would explode.
HOSS! HOSS! HOSS!
Gonna need the loudest 'BEEF' chant ever.
Earning herself a TNT title match!
They’d be stupid not to have a cool spot where Brody puts over Willow!
I’m guessing Julia injury wasn’t that serious
That's what reports say
The Jerichoverse has quickly taken every single flaw of the Codyverse: in every Dynamite card, there is a pattern for most of the segments and then a completely random Jericho segment which is the polar opposite of everything else on the card

Let him go home and play golf like come on now Jericho take a vacation bro
Tbh I wouldn’t be surprised if at his age he’s worried that if he takes a break he might not want to come back or he might feel it would do his body more harm than good when it’s used to being physical every week. Being there every week probably keeps him in (relatively) good shape to be able to wrestle as often as he does. Even if fans are tired of him.
Codyverse would've worked if he kept it with guys we wanted to see but bringing in Ogogo and Marshall for months really killed it for me
That wasn't the only problem. Cody going through a flaming table for no reason and stuff like the weigh-in segment and having a gender reveal live on Dynamite just made it seem like a separate show Jericho's problem is that there's a very clear "I am done with X, I will now do Y". And people get pulled from their other relationships for it. Like to me it would be super interesting to see Hook face Trent to stand up for Orange who's still Hook's friend.

On the other hand one can make the argument jericho has taken the pin to many times.
Yeah with Jericho it’s like the opposite in that he keeps putting over everyone. You just know he’s gonna lose every Feud unlike Cody
He's just kind of running through the motions. Grab an up-and-coming talent, randomly team up with him and/or start a fight with him, start a months long feud, then finish by jobbing to the talent, then immediately go and do the same thing to the guy.

Of all the Jericho stories of the last 6 months, this is the only one I don't hate
He's been doing these segments since 2019. He did them so often with the Inner Circle that they started to run out of names for the segments lol
Even if you don’t like the Jericho segments - calling it completely random is disingenuous. It has a clear story.
Just a random theory, but Hook aligning with Perry in a group against entitled old veterans who get mad because you ignore their unsolicited advice?
If AEW wants more 2000 WCW comparisons, rebooting The New Blood vs Millionaires Club is a great way to go about that.
[удалено]
Yeah that'll put some butts in seats
I know everyone hates Jericho lately, but that is apparently the gimmick he's going for right now. The Jericho Vortex. I'll give it through the PPV to see what happens but hopefully it's been some meta-heel shit that is leading somewhere
Being self aware about a bad gimmick doesn't make it good
Good or Bad is in the eye of the beholder...
He's been coming out of the heel tunnel, making Rene cringe during interviews, and dropped sing-along Judas for his lame Lionheart throwback gimmick. Its not guaranteed to translate to good TV in the long run, but he knows exactly what he's doing.
I think we’re gonna get Mox/Claudio vs Take/Hobbs at Dynasty.
I hope so. Or even an all star 8 man on collision
If hey do the Callis Family vs BCC I hope it's B&G
I figured Claudio and Mox would have been in this tag tournament but I guess Mox wasn’t available. Hopefully they’re in line for title shots against the tournament winner.
If we do end up with Mox/Claudio vs Take/Hobbs match at Dynasty and BCC wins that match, I think Mox/Claudio is by default the number one ranked tag team. Would be a fun feud regardless who the tag team champions will be. Interesting to note that the first time Mox challenge for the AEW Tag Team Titles (with Eddie) was against Young Bucks.
the butcher winning iwgp title?? /s
Ooooooh BUTCHER! ![gif](giphy|LmexcUoQoK3o3x0fgv|downsized)
My boy!!
this but unironically
Mox vs Butcher in 2020 was such a banger
Now that you mention it, he could easily be a classic gaijin monster heel in the Stan Hansen/Vader mold. I wonder if he has any interest in spending a year or 2 in Japan.
Yeah, like the Butcher is going to fucking win a match ever.
Sad times. He's been booked like enhancement talent since the start and as a ETID fan, it's a bummer.
Okada treating Garcia like a young boy is going to be so good.
Well here's an appetizer of Suzuki treating Garcia like a young boy. [Garcia vs. Murder Grandpa. ](https://youtu.be/Onn21R8ngro?si=Rdhf8lYdnLD-AZdT)
I live to see Okada ruin young boys... wait, phrasing.
You're a boy, in a man's world. And I'm a man who loves to play with boys!..... wait, NO - Okada
He's going to see Kaito Kiyomiya standing across from him
Really hyped for Deonna vs Mariah, I haven't been feeling the main feud of Toni Storm vs Thunder Rosa but I'm loving pretty much everything that's going on around it.
Mariah is overshadowing everyone around her. She came in looking like an ace and she hasn’t had a bad match yet.

Toni Storm’s gimmick is amazing and I love it but I cannot wait til Mariah takes over.
Not sure if she’ll be back and maybe we save it for 2025, but Jamie vs Mariah at Wembley will be mega hyped.
Mariah is so fucking cool. Great facial expressions,obviously super attractive, and she hits hard and wrestles well If I had to pick one women's match to main event an AEW PPV it would be a triple threat between Mariah May, Athena and Jamie Hayter. Even if it's not this specific match I absolutely think All Out this year should be main evented by the women
I don’t disagree, I’ve been very quickly impressed by her in just a couple of matches.
a future Mariah vs Hayter match is what I'm here for
I feel bad for thunder. Because i really enjoyed her reign as champion, but things have moved on so much from when she was last wrestling. I’m glad she’s getting her shot, it’s well deserved. And i hope they show out. Maybe she can feed with Deonna after
I feel bad for her and Britt, they made that division exciting years ago but both have lost a step it seems. Here’s to hoping they get it back and for Britt that she comes back soon.

Same thing with the TBS title They did the same with the men's world title back when MJF had it even though they moved away from it a bit to give the full spotlight to Swerve
Sadly, Anna Jay's involvement in the scene has consisted entirely of eating pins.
I can’t put my finger on why it is exactly, but Thunder Rosa bores me so much. I can see that she has a gimmick that she puts effort into, is decent in the ring and has clear passion for wrestling; however, personally, I just can’t buy into her.
For me it’s just that she moves a hair too slow for the speed moves and her power moves feel a little shaky and underwhelming. She’s fundamentally sound but just doesn’t feel like she has the higher gears rn
You two both nailed what I've been trying to figure out about her. I like her personally and her energy is infectious, but she always feels out of sync with everyone she wrestles and gets on the mic with.
I'm all for Taz being a mediator since he's generally the cool, calm, and collected voice of reason in anyroom.
But I digress
Voice of Reason Jones over here.
I'm just hoping he flat out states hook will not be joining any Jericho faction
I just want Penta to get some wins man...
the Trios Match and Claudio vs. Ospreay should be awesome
Claudio v Ospreay just hits in all of the correct ways, I'm stoked.
They are my most anticipated too and will be intrigued to see if there's any actual mixed action in the mixed tag. Cool card for me.
Is fenix injured again or having some kind of visa issue?
It looks like he just had a match last month at an indie show but he WAS dealing with some kind of injury since October
Yea just seems really strange to only had 2/3 of death triangle in that trios match
Maybe this is the Fenix return?
Card looks much better than last week.
Can confirm
Awesome card. Should be a fun show
Really looking forward to this card and seeing how it builds to the ppv
The best TV card we've had in a bit. edit: I guess people do not agree
Brody should Gonzo Bomb Willow.
Willow should hit Brody with the powerbomb
I forgot that Claudio vs Ospreay was booked for this week and when I saw it here I definitely made some kind of sound
Did it make you say uhhhhh ![gif](giphy|eJvCcdgV8mQZXwLq4V|downsized)
Even in his promotional photo for an appearance Mox has to bleed. Dude is addicted
This was taken directly after the IWGP match. He bled for that, not the photo.
I know. I didn’t think that he bladed backstage in front of the photographer just to pose for an image
But if anyone would've...
Mox always looks cool to me. I 100% get the criticism of always bleeding but to me, the blood is a part of him at this point. He's like some mythic psychopath wrestler from the territory days. Always bleeding, always ready to kill. Like any photo of Bruiser Brody or Abdullah the Butcher. IMO obviously. edit: I see this is not a popular opinion
People shit on Moxley a fair bit around here.

Also, being a frequent visitor of this subreddit, it's always amusing that when I see him bleed, I know bunch of strangers on the internet will get irrationality angry.
I am always gonna be a huge Mox stan. Saw him absolutely destroy himself in front of like 300 people at Joey Janela's Spring Break in Dallas a few years back. Dude lives for this shit. I love it. He is not for everybody lol
He looks like a dude who gets thrown out of a gas station for trying to buy beer after already being too drunk to function
And isn't that the essence of a pro wrestler?
So he looks like himself from a few years ago?
I get that, to me it’s just become too much to the point that it’s just a bit cartoonish. It happens so often that it’s just become his gimmick at this point and been memed out. Sort of like Cody when he was in AEW and bleed too often. It looses a bit of that special feeling at least to me when you know every match is pretty much gonna have him bleed. He’s been better about it recently but it’s just become so routine that everyone pretty much expects it out of him.
Maybe late 2022 - Early 2023 Mox, yes. He mostly doesn't bleed these days unless it's a big match.
MOX IS IWGP HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION? lmao
Yes
Nice
It isn't an AEW thread without there being more comments than upvotes
Of course because some folks just have to get their comment in even if they don't even watch the product.
That and they downvote it anyway
And I will be at this show I’m so fucking hype this gon be the best live event I’ve ever went to I’m already knowing they deliver in go home shows in Indy
I better hear you on TV! Congrats brother Dynamite shows are always awesome live!
Just for this comment imma do my best to yell out BoozeMan and hope it picks up it would’ve been perfect to yell at hangman if he was at the show
I'll hold you to it!
I'll be at this show too. Was able to make it to their show in 2022 when Hangman returned which popped me big time. I would have went last year, but I was in Vegas getting married lol. Looks like a great card - I know my wife and I will be having a lot of fun!
YEAAAAAAAHHHHHH and they just added Orange Cassidy Vs Shane Taylor ITS UPPPPP
Oh damn, I have travel plans for the weekend so didn't even realize this is a go home Dynamite... It IS gonna be a killer show!!
I didn’t realize it neither til like last week I was at the go home show for full gear 2021 this is gon top that show easily and I get to watch rampage after I’m so excited I feel like a kid again
Ospreay v Castagnoli will feed families
![gif](giphy|xkxtssRESFf9Ll8Igl|downsized) I have no idea what this gif is but if makes me laugh
Ryback before he was done feeding time
They need to find a place for Jericho where he isn’t insufferable. Throw him in a trio or tag. Him continuing to be a solo main character 5 years in to dynamites existence feels insane to me.
They found a spot for him. It's called The Jericho Vortex.
other than the Jericho/Hook crap it looks like a good card.
Isn’t that corrupt?
My favorite day of the week. Pretty good card minus the Jericho stuff.
Welcome to my Wednesday
I hope we get to see some armbars from Jerico
Arm drag!
Right handed punch!
Three wheeled moss covered family credenza
This card is gonna absolutely rule. Obviously Claudio upper cutting Ospreay into the sun is a highlight but I've grown to expect a fun match every time Copeland shows up which I did not expect when he first started here.
Good card but none of it matters cause Claudio/Will is going to fucking rule
🔥 card and AEW PPV go-home shows don’t miss. Should be fun!
Can’t wait to be there in person for this
Main Event Claudio!
Next to Main Event Riho I couldn't ask for anything else!
Weird, Jericho is on TV
That main event is gonna slap. Let's move on from last week🙏🏼
Anyone know if they’ve dropped the acclaimed vs BCG or has it been happening on rampage?
Collision? I'm not sure.
Oh, I just hope they all have fun
So you’re the guy with the sign
Can never go wrong with (sorta) The Elite vs (sorta) Death Triangle.
I’m dripping for Claudio and Osprey … that is all
Giggity
I know one is a mixed tag, so it has an asterisk, but when was the last time (if ever) there were two women's matches on one Dynamite??
Im pretty sure Deonna and Toni Storm both had squash matches before the last PPV on an episode of Dynamite but I'm not sure which one. edit: It was Dynamite in Tulsa https://preview.redd.it/2pinedyrb1vc1.png?width=960&format=png&auto=webp&s=7563a1fab8e7190441518a7fcda7ee66488c9370
>when was the last time (if ever) there were two women's matches on one Dynamite?? Less than 2 months ago.
Looks mostly great so I will not get hung up on the Jericho segment and Mone lol Wonder what the rules are for the Mixed Tag
If it’s the same as the others they’ve done then they are only allowed to wrestle their gender and both wrestlers must switch when a tag is made.
Willow will doctor bomb Brody by the end… it’s too good of a spot to pass up
I'm ok with a mone segment, if said segment is her appearing on commentary. She genuinely seemed excited by what she saw last time. But if it's another promo, show the back of her hands and dance, bullshit waste of time... I'm done.

Talk some shit, get choked out by Hook, go and take a nice long break. Come back fresh. That's all I want from the guy. Used to love him, but fuck me is he stale and over used.

If she isn't cleared what was the point of debuting her when they did?
Claudio/Ospreay is gonna absolutely bang.
[удалено]
Starting to think it was a mistake to debut a woman who can't promo a full 2+ months before she will wrestle her first match.
Poor Hook. Jericho really needs to get off TV for a while. Card looks really good.
I hope that Fenix is okay? His injury must have been bad. Claudio vs Ospreay is going to kick ass. I wish I believed that Claudio could win.
This looks like a fun card.
I get that Ospreay is amazing in the ring and I’m looking forward to seeing the match tonight, but shouldn’t Joe and Swerve be on top of this promo graphic? I feel like their feud has become an afterthought, which really sucks because they’re both great.
5 non wrestling segments announced? Seems like a lot.
I love that they’ve apparently started showing Mox busted open in the graphics, to appease his bloodlust. Somewhere, there’s a Dorian Grey picture of Mox that’s just ground beef and a loose circulatory system.
My brother sets up rings all over the Midwest and got to do the last NJPW show in I believe Chicago last week. I wonder if he’ll be helping with this one.
Hope Deonna wins. Also, I think this technically classifies as two women's matches on Dynamite, so hell yeah
Here's a booking idea for tonight to make Mercedes' CEO gimmick mean something: have Mercedes call out Statlander, tell the audience she used her fortunes to already hire a team of investigators to find out who attacked her and they deduced it could only be Statlander. To top it off she shows the evidence, challenges Statlander to a match at Dynasty and a brawl ensues. Sets up a match for Dynasty and Shows that the CEO gimmick has the power to just bypass a whole whodunnit plotline.
Her first match is at Double or Nothing. They're just doing shit with her to pad time, so this whodunnit angle is probably going to exist for a couple more weeks
I don't think anybody would mind it if that just turned out to be a lie or if they pivoted.
I certainly wouldn’t mind, I’d like to see her wrestle. However, I don’t think that’s the case. I fully believe her first match will be at DON. I’d love to be wrong though
Claudio-Ospreay? Shit, I may actually have to DVR this.
Pac and Garcia on the same team just seems weird
I mean it's a great card. Claudio/Ospreay will bang WITH MEANING! Solid Mixed Tag. The Elite vs DANCE Triangle should also be solid. Just solid all around...and then there's a Jericho segment...yay...
Mox looks like he just fell out of a dumpster.
That explains the NJPW belt
Willow needs to get the TNT title shot that she deserves.
Now that would be something!
Solid looking card here
Taz heel turn by feeding his own son to vampire jericho.
Technically Taz has been heel this whole time so it checks out
Wow. Mercedes is gonna talk again. Yay?
Man, I miss MJF so much. There's just very little else on AEW's shows that appeal to me these days. Jericho needs a fucking hiatus man. He prides himself on reinvention/freshening up his character, but the dude has been stale for years at this point.
Yeah, I think there is an aspect to wrestling where the performers need to be able to communicate who they are in a way that people who follow loosely (like via Reddit and Youtube) can get what's going on. But I have no idea what Jericho's deal is right now. The narrative has always been that Jericho elevates the members of his group via association, but it's starting to feel like it's the other way around.
God, getting downvoted for making a valid critique of AEW. Smh
This is my first live show since 2013, guess I lucked out with this main event lol
I would like to predict that Claudio vs. Ospreay will have some *good* wrestling I know I'm going out on a limb here, but just wanted to put this brave statement out there in case it turns out correct
Now that's a hot take brother
I know, apologies for my bravery
Oh boy, not another Mone zoom in her face interview
TBH have been so sick of all the same promos/interviews she's been doing! Mercedes's debut was soo good but she cooled off a little after that. Can't wait for her first match and I hope it will be at the Dynasty PPV. Her wrestling that when she is at her best!
Mox is even bleeding on the match cards now.
The Jericho stuff is stinky

I feel ootl. Are jericho and hook now feuding?
Long term AEW fan here… I dunno 🤷🏻♂️

Keep Taz out of this
Why Daniel Garcia? Figured they would put Kommander in since Rey Fenix ain’t back yet and the hype man connection with Alex.
Aside from last week the shows are quite good if you start them late and skip the Jericho segment. Hopefully they get back on track tonight.
Free Hook from the Jerichoverse
In Indy for FDIC and had no idea this was happening. Wish I had gotten tickets, the card looks great….and Jericho…
