I wonder if Jeff Cobb coming is the set up to the United Empire starting in AEW. I know originally ospreay wanted to bring it to AEW.
His only singles win in AEW was against his own tag partner for christsakes.
He literally just won on CollisionThey have to stop putting Dax into singles matches he's obviously going to lose. He's a great worker but if you're going to have him wrestle singles this often you need to make it believable by having him win some. His only singles win in AEW was against his own tag partner for christsakes.
I thought I was crazy and missed something.
What about these?Dynamite with two eliminator matches against people that never win matches is very silly.
People rarely win eliminator matchesBeing an eliminator match means THE MUSHEEN is gonna get his shit in and win. He can then lose the actual title shot

i think I'd take a grudge match vs eliminator. No title vs title for someone that doesn't merit a title shot. But I'm also still begrudging AEW for how dull Team AEW is. It has now replaced The Elite vs House of Black for no build squandering fun, especially since it could be a company-wide angle.
Dax singles matches are for some reason like exhibition matches. I don't think you can take dax singles run seriously if ever.
stuff I heard from someone right next to me who downed no less than 5 bud lights during collision. i'm impressed not at the amount of alcohol, but whos buying that much bud light at a arena? pre-game, goddamnit.
"CM PUNK" (ofc)
"BRING OUT DANHAUSEN"
"I'VE BEEN WATCHING WRESTLING SINCE THE 80S" (i don't know why he yelled this out specifically??)
"CHELSEA GREEN IS MY FAVORITE WRESTLER" (during like, every single women's match)
"AEW USED TO BE HOT BUT IT'S COLD NOW"
"AEW NEEDS MORE VIDEO PACKAGES"
"WE'LL SEE HOW MUCH PEOPLE ARE ON THE HARD CAM SIDE"
"LET'S GO RENEGADE, WHOEVER YOU ARE"
"I DON'T KNOW WHO ANY OF THESE WRESTLERS ARE"
"I'm more of a WWE person but you know wrestling doesn't come here often"
"I WATCHED THIS GUY WHEN HE WAS EDGE" (???)
"there should be a wrestler named lightning linda. she should be her nemesis" (when watching thunder rosa)
i didn't think this stereotype existed in real life. i am all the more poorer for having actually encountered somebody like this.
🤔Does anyone think this zelina vega heat at the other place may have something to do with Malakai getting a singles match at a ppv?

on the other hand a guy brought his kid in and at one point this exchange occurred:
"daddy did he get hit in the pee-pee area"
"yes, he got hit in the pee-pee area."
so, you know, balanced out.
Was this guy shouting this at the ring or just loudly saying it to the person next to them?
Doesn't make a huge difference but I want to try to understand why someone would pay money to hate watch a show.
I don't actually want him to do spooky stuff, I just want him to have a more updated version of that look specially.Please don't give Edgeland a supernatural gimmick, he already nixed that idea when in the Judgement Day and it was the right choice. Have him be a cocky smart-ass heel, it was always what he's been best at.
class clown behavior, he was shouting it for everybody to hear and high-fiving every other mark nearby who was reacting to his shit. ofc, he was with a group as well. lucky they didn't contribute, but they were happy enough watching a grown man make a fool outta himself.
luckily, for some reason he kept rotating between seats.
I don't actually want him to do spooky stuff, I just want him to have a more updated version of that look specially.
Purely just visual.
If he does do anything supernatural, sticking to just flickering lights and maybe the occasional mist because I'll admit that I marked out big time when they got Sting to do it.

Saturday night's alright for a fight
We got Danielson and Claudio versus Top Flight
Dante goes hard and gets his shit in
But the Combat Club boys still get the win
Danielson's pissed and spits on the mic
"I'll protect AEW!" he says all shoot-like
There's just one question left up in the air
Was Claudio mad that he had no hair?
Then it was time for our seatbelts to fasten
For Lee Moriarty and the Aerial Assassin
Shane Taylor was pissed by the ringside, indeed
But Ospreay prevailed despite Taylor's bad deeds
Will thought "Tiger Driver," but said "I can't make 'er."
So he drilled Moriarty with a perfect Stormbreaker
But bruv! What?! A post-match attack?
STP and Will Ospreay, we're running it back?
After that, pre-recorded, the self-titled "that bitch"
Out there in Boston, throwing out the first pitch
A small, simple thing to put in the first hour
To remind all of us of Mone's star power
Hey, you like squashes? I got something to sell!
The Gates and MUHSHEEN pound three jobbers to hell
A decent promo then cut by Brian Cage
Lookin' like a boss from Streets of Rage
Swerve then comes down and handles his business
And smiles like the Joker getting Batman for Christmas
The champ's got some edge! (No, not Copeland. That's later)
Nice to see him unleash his inner hater (Miss ya, Jamie!)
Then Daniel Garcia in a two-minute match
A fan charged the ring, by two men he was snatched
They want to keep Daniel clear in our minds
For the fate of the company, whose face will he grind?
Oi! What's all this then? This lad Billington?
Like the Dynamite Kid being born again
He's fast and he's lean, and he loves Union Jacks
A Hart Brothers finish? Must be wrestling Dax
By the end, he is beaten, and the crowd is impressed
A damn fine impression, like the red on his chest
Now Okada wants Dax while Daniels yells at the Bucks
"I've been here since day one! And your attitude sucks!"
But whose side is he on? Do we really know?
Need a third eye to be opened on Wednesday's show
By the way, fans, Rosa's kicked off the rust
She's connecting with crowds after a slight readjust
She looks sharp against Robyn, then looks at the screen
Is this the best Thunder Rosa that we've ever seen?
Johnny TV then challenges PAC
A Rampage-ass match, but I'll cut it some slack
Then HOOK's in the streets, he prob can't see shit
Dude, pull up your hat, or find one that fits
But either way, HOOKer, I'll be watching with glee
To see you suplex a Learning Tree
It's main event time! It's Kyle and Cope!
In Vancouver colours, they kind of look dope
A battle hard-fought, a grueling duel
Prefer Adam here instead of Crown Jewel
The TNT title, still his by the end
But he holds on too tightly to O'Reilly's hand
Is our young Gandalf (Nigel's line, not mine)
About to turn evil for the very first time?
As I said at the start, it's alright for a fight
Collision is filled with stars so darn bright
So, as always with wrestling, if you liked it, that's cool
Just stay off Twitter and Reddit to avoid the tools

These are awesome and I get a kick out of reading them every time. Thank you for taking the time and effort!
Every time Mercedes complains about Willow stealing a year of her career from her I remember that Mercedes stole five years from Saraya.
That's a legitimate beef they could use to build for a Wembley match. Assuming Mercedes isn't a champion by then. I think Tony Khan is wild enough to book Mercedes to lose to Willow in her debut.
The whole using injuries like that for storylines is something that I have never really been a fan of. I mean there are exceptions if it was something unfortunately obvious, but in most cases like this one it is really not needed and kind of lessens the whole thing.The real silliest part of Mercedes blaming Willow for getting injured is that Willow doesn't even touch Mercedes when she slips off the top rope.
The most surprising part of this story is that someone can get drunk on Bud Light.Dax singles matches are for some reason like exhibition matches. I don't think you can take dax singles run seriously if ever.

I haven't looked at the footage recently but my recollection is Willow shifts her weight forward slightly which does cause Mercedes to move back and that's where she lost her balance.The real silliest part of Mercedes blaming Willow for getting injured is that Willow doesn't even touch Mercedes when she slips off the top rope.

Might as well get him in the rotation. Will Ospreay vs Scorpio Sky.
