They are doing the women's championship the first night.
Hopefully we get news of matches for A Boy and his Dinosaur and MJF at All Out in the next couple of episodes.
Thanks, 51 or 52 by then...think he'll hang it up after that? Or do one last wwe run/resign with aew?
I think he's expressed wanting to do behind the scenes work for them.
Makes sense, I think he'd be good at helping dudes with their gimmicks or creative.
True. I wonder if they would have the women main event the first show, or does the men's six man tag (which probably features the first men's champ in Jericho).
I imagine there's about 2-3 more matches to be added:
-A women's match to determine the other part of the first championship match on 10/2
-Something featuring the tag division (including Boy and his Dino)
It's possible that MJF is involved in the Cody/Spears match instead. He's been used pretty prominently in the build-up. Maybe he corners Cody in that match, if it's not Arn.
Nice. Can't pull any punches for that first month of TV. Expecting Mox vs Jericho or Cody vs Jericho.
Also doesn't sound like there's going to be another PPV to build to for the rest of 2019 after All Out, so expect to see lots of "PPV worthy" matchups on TV.
Dave said they'll have one. I just wouldn't expect it earlier than December
I'd be ready to put money down on a mid-December PPV.
Didn't PAC mess his leg up pretty badly a week or two ago?
Fake Edit: Yup https://heelbynature.com/wrestling-news/pac-suffers-nasty-leg-injury-at-independent-show-in-u-k/
He's probably out for a bit.

Makes the most sense to me. I assume we'll get 1 major PPV a quarter and some smaller ones in between.
CHRIST. NSFW. Gross shit. Bone sticking out of flesh. Small but gross.
Interesting. I wonder if they go for Christmas day/week. Christmas shows used to draw big back in the day, and it seems like an old school thing they'd go for.
no idea if Christmas wrestling shows still draw, though.
Hopefully they don't use all their big matches before the PPV after All Out
I read somewhere recently that there are plans for four PPV next year too. I think that makes sense. Frankly, with how important TV deals/braodcasting rights have become, the old PPV model doesn't make as much sense anyway so it'd be better if they're not having to save everything for PPV. But I like having a few big events to build towards. I can't for the life of me understand why WWE still bothers to do monthly PPVs.
Cool guess he's fine then. Must have looked worse then it was.
Hope the guy isn't going full carnie and saying "Fuck it, I'll wrestle on my bone held together by screws, stitches and some staples!"
Might not have been bone. Maybe just looks like it in the photo. Can't imagine the femur being broke like that and he's just sitting there as he is in the photo.
He mentioned recently that he was Cassidy's manager in the past. If you Google the names together you'll find what show it was.
That looks like Monokuma from Danganronpa peeking over the table edge!
Guessing AAA is turning the MSG show into a cobranded event with AEW.
Feels likely. AAA has to be pretty happy with the partnership thus far.
Should definitely turn the attendance for that show around if AEW starts advertising/promoting it.
Give it to me. Put them up against the E. Bring out the best in everyone.

Ideally I would want it to be Lucha Bros, Best Friends or A Boy and his Dinosaur.
Anything else would kind of let me down.
I was thinking a AAA/AEW PPV but could be a TV special I guess.
I feel like it has to be the Bucks. They're the biggest stars in the division and I don't see the point making them chase the titles.
Best Friends are fucking amazing. Hope they become the first AEW Tag champs. I would also have Britt or Hikaru as the first women's champ and Jericho the first AEW World champ.
No please.
I'd like the winners to be someone interesting. Bucks don't need a belt.
