Not the best PPV but damn if it wasn't entertaining. Please never leave Excalibur alone with JR again though. Poor guy had to carry the entire show on his own. JR needs third person.

That's a fat bonus check for Kenny and Mox, right?

...Right?!?

That was the first time I fell asleep watching an AEW show. Shawn Spears is the fucking worst. There was some good stuff but it wasn't great. Didn't care for the main event but its not my thing.

Imma say it Santana and Ortiz are my MVPs of the show. Those cats are entertaining af. Did not expect them to make me laugh and be totally badass at the same time.

I think the thing that stood out the most is you always got the sense that Moxley was enjoying himself. The fact he kept coming out first after every nasty spot and how animated he was after he won. Maybe it's adrenaline but damn.

As far as contention, I can see him starting a one man war against the inner circle and/or the elite to get his number one contendor. The win itself doesn't count but more now than ever, Moxley is inevitable. That AMP plug and guitar riff is gonna be the glass shatter for AEW

They made a point to say this match does nothing for his title opportunities so idk

Not about this match but looking at the rankings:



Cody is out for his promise and feuding with MJF probably

PAC is 3-1-1
Page is 4-2 (but he already challenged jericho and that didnt worked out well)
Kenny is 2-2 and already fought jericho too
Mox is the only one undefeated in singles (sanctioned and unsanctioned matches) so they can build something there.

Probably they will made mox and page and pac fight for n1 contender, but i think the PAC/Page feud is not over.

Mox and Omega saved that ppv, it was ranging from mediocre to decent but those two just put on an excellent show of violence and guts.

Yeah, Pac losing his streak doesn't really effect much when he still has the best record and the next one up is the guy who beat him. They can build on that easily for a contender feud especially since it's a natural tie-in.

Just reading the thread and have to say I said from day 1 JR shouldn't be in commentary. Anyone who heard those New Japan shows could have testified to that.

I enjoyed most of the PPV, but I am concerned about that MJF turn. Presumably he screwed over Cody so that he could get his time in the sunshine? Just a weird too-fast turn.

The show for me started out a bit hit or miss, couldn't really get into it but Riho/Sakura got me back in and the main event was fucking great fun.

Bad stuff:

Crowd overall
Commentary... It got better near the end because JR was selling the extreme match well, but he was really bad at the beginning. I was missing Tony.
Bucks vs P&P (awful name) was kinda sloppy/low energy
Shawn Spears has little going for him.
Tag title match should not have been a 3 way. And, SCU shouldn't have won. They're the least interesting of the 3 teams. Daniels coming out as another Penta was underwhelming after the reveal and came off as awkward.

Good stuff:


Pac vs Page
Jericho vs Cody and the MJF turn

Great stuff:


Riho v Emi
Omega vs Moxley

Does Omega have a losing record in AEW? It seems like he's lost most of his matches

Yeah it doesn't seem like he was doing it for the Inner Circle. He wanted his turn in the sun and was tired of Cody stealing the spotlight. He turned completely on his own.

Given how far they went with the violence, it was definitely the right call to put that last over the title match.

It's not a loop. It's a spiral.

Aren't they officially called Santana and Ortiz? I didn't think I've seen them billed on screen as Proud and Powerful, even though it definitely shows up on their entrance video.

I believe they had them officially called that on Dynamite a few days ago but I didn't see any of that on Full Gear. Maybe they realized it was a dumb name?
