Wonder what the original move was that Swerve was planning off that top? Either way, that was an amazing PPV!

Compbros We'll get Ain't Nobody at Wembley man ;_;

What a PPV

Okada vs Pac was such a killer start (but muh Pick'ems!)

Danielson vs Ospreay is probably top 3 matches I've ever witnessed live (on PPV) in my life. I fucking love pro wrestling. Fuck Sports Entertainment.

SCAPEGOAT

IT'S SWERVE'S TIME

Full thoughts after I collect myself. Only match that wasn't all that was Jericho/Hook and that wasn't even that bad. What a PPV.

So small not to pick. Nigel and Excalibur were selling the 'can swerve his the jml driver on Joe' which Jesus fuck obviously not.

To the point when swerve power bombed Joe Excalibur was calling for the jml driver.

They also missed that he hit the house call when he jumped over Joe off the top rope.

It speaks to the quality of the entire show that Jericho had a match and it's among the top PPVs of the decade

Folks

Is that Busaiku Knee counter to the Oscutter one of the most perfectly executed wrestling counters of all time?

Like, it was clean. CLEAN.

From midcard on Lucha Underground as Killshot, to NXT North American Champion (because they didn't put him in the main title match for some reason), to being let go by [REDACTED], AEW tag team champion, and now the first black AEW champion. Hell of a ride for this man, and he finally got his moment.

This was the first PPV I ordered since Bryan Danielson debuted and it was well worth the money. I've been slowly paying attention again thanks to WWE of all things lol.

I hope Bowens ditches Caster and can have a singles run, culminating in a TNT or International Championship run.

That rap Caster did felt like a dude on his way out of a company and giving no fucks.

With maybe the exception of one PPV which was still good if not matching expectations I don't think an AEW PPV has ever been a bad show to purchase and enjoy.

Rising tides and all that, wrestling is really good these days. I'm still partial to AEW's style, but I loved WrestleMania too, and TNA and GCW are regularly putting on great shows.

Probably one of the best AEW PPVs had not been for Jericho/Hook going on what felt like an hour.

Can we talk about black excellence in AEW and how far it has come (with still more they can do, mind you)

Scorpio Sky was half of the first tag championship and a TNT title holder (although those runs could have been better)
Jade and now Willow as TBS Champion
Swerve in Our Glory and The Acclaimed as tag champs
Ricky(yyyyyy) as FTW (lol ok ok) and tag champ
The Acclaimed as part of the Trios championship
Swerve as AEW Champion

as if a missile somehow countered another in mid-air. absolute unstoppable force meets another unstoppable force spot, i'm gushing.

and this ppv started with a knee counter to a black arrow which i would have easily voted as beautifully violent any other day

Bowens is a singles babyface champion waiting to happen. I dunno what's going on with Max Caster, but yeah, give Bowens a singles run.

Great night. My favorite thing that will be overlooked is that three people who had career threatening injuries, Pac, Thunder Rosa, and Kyle O'Reilly, all got their first ppv matches in a long long time and all of them had bangers.

Considering where they first started from, we should give them props. The original main event scene was white as a sheet.
