This crowd is HOT for the main event, holy hell

[–] uSirPatrick 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Not that it's a make or break thing, but if FTR vs bucks is happening that feels a step closer to punk and the elite communicating which would be so good for the company

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Agreed. Honestly, when Collision started and Punk ripped on the Bucks (called their fans whiners, etc.) I figured things were probably smoothed over. I can't imagine a world where TK lets Punk go out there and say that if they aren't okay.

Oh house of black vs CMFTR is gonna slap

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I'm not ready for hob to lose yet.

[–] uSirPatrick 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I don't think they will... I doubt they win clean but I bet they still win

I will only accept Death Triangle

[–] uSirPatrick 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Did Christian kidnap that child?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I don't know but I'd like to think so!

[–] uSirPatrick 5 points 1 year ago

This trios stipulation is a direct assault on me and I don't appreciate it

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Shit just got real, JR is here!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

He catches a lot of flak but I love the guy. Hearing his voice is basically what got me to watch AEW in the first place.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Buddy just yeeting Action to wherever he may land lol

[–] Travon333 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The Collision stage makes everything feel so big time.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Definitely. The glossy ramp is so much better than Dynamite's 'rubbery' ramp.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

So far it's been another great show. AEW's been on a tear lately. Perfect timing too. This next month is going to be huge for them.

[–] Travon333 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Christian is such a scumbag man!

House of black is so much cooler than me

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

House of Black is the greatest thing ever in anything that has ever existed. A perfect intersection between wrestling and mental.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I have really enjoyed Big Bill and Cage!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Pretty awesome how the blind eliminator tournament produced Big Bill/Cage and MJF/Cole. Guessing this won't be the last time they do it lol

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Kris Statlander and Mercedes Martinez are beating the piss out of each other, jebus!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Lol that god damn Jay White cut out

Lol Andretti has been getting his ass kicked consistently on Saturdays

[–] uSirPatrick 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Aew can't seem to figure out what they want to do with Lee Johnson

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Yeah, he needs an ROH run. Or an indie run. Something to build some momentum.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Oh no, my boy Big Shotty is getting sacrificed to House of Black

[–] Travon333 3 points 1 year ago

Guns Up Schiavone!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Big Bill is like two and a half Aubrey's

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Oh mah gerd! FTR vs YB at All In!

[–] Travon333 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

😂😂Tough night at the office for Schiavone. He deserves it for a being a bad luck charm

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Tony didn't do nothing to nobody!

[–] Travon333 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Lol idk man, notable sweetheart Adam Cole HATES Schiavone.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah, but he hangs out with that snake in the grass MJF!

[–] Travon333 3 points 1 year ago

Come on man, he's a scumbag and he's working on it!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

As he should. Tony was clearly trying to steal his girlfriend ;p

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Hope Mercedes got her caulking done.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I'm more worried about the gutters myself

[–] Travon333 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Good match! FTR wins by the skin of the teeth against 2 monsters. Makes them all look great.

Looks like Big Bill turned his 'New Yorker' dial up to eleven.

[–] Travon333 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The House move like differently specialized Assassins. Pretty much always complementing each other.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Well put. I'm not ready for them to lose the belts yet.

And as I'm typing this they announced the trios match next week. Damn 😬

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Excellent show, as usual. AEW rarely misses.

Still baffled by CM Punk's whole deal.

Shout out to the "cm punk fears blue Kane" sign lol

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I had to look that up. I love wrestling.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I saw that too lol. Great sign.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

“Real World Championship” is such a weird name. Sounds like something meant for MTV reality stars…which I guess CM Punk is, technically.

CM Punk vs. Johnny Bananas
