Are there seriously still people who doubt MJF's in-ring abilities? Because they should be ignored at this point. I don't think we have anyone in this community like that, or we definitely shouldn't after last night.
You... must skip a lot of posts.Are there seriously still people who doubt MJF's in-ring abilities? Because they should be ignored at this point. I don't think we have anyone in this community like that, or we definitely shouldn't after last night.
Don't know anything about Jay Lethal but impressions I'm reading here point to a Fish-esque discourse surrounding him in the future, which is unfortunate. Funny story about that… I woke up this morning and watched the pre-show (good match, thought Nyla and Jamie was going to win when I saw Deeb at ringside), then needed to do some errands before watching the main show. Just as I was leaving my place the first thing I heard was Tony bellowing out "JAY LETHAL!" from a neighbour's place across the hall… so much for avoiding spoilers, but good to know that the fan base is spreading!
My feelings are the tnt title is where people they want to reward that aren't in the planned line of succession get their runs.
I love Eddie but I think Tony has his next 2-3 title runs planned already.
MJF seems poised to come after hangman in the next year. The other 3 pillars have all lost to mjf. That is setting something up.
If Tony was going to work someone in I think it'll be Danielson or punk (or someone from NJPW).
I want Eddie to take the tnt title off of Sammy. His run has sucked with it due to stupid ATT/IC feud

Pretty sure it's the living the gimmick stuff kills him for a lot of people these days.I've been an advocate of his in-ring since that incredible Jungle Boy match. People must have short memories.
Was the crowd chanting for him last night? Always hard for me figure out what the crowds are saying. I know they were saying "Let's go Darby", were they saying "let's go MJF" after that or something to boo MJF? Seemed like they were split on the match.After some more thinking I think if it wasn't for the emotional investment in the title match, the MJF/Darby match would have been my favourite of the night.
Was watching fitefull and someone made a great point in that it's good that mjf doesn't have lots of matches not only because it helps slow his approach to the title but also because there is a good chance he would win the fans over in his matches themselves.
"Let's go Darby" "M. J. F." Pretty split, yeah.Love MJF, he's my favorite AEW guy atm. I love heels, he can promo, he can wrestle. Checks all my boxes. Andrade and Black are tied at 2.

We had a convo while you were late reacting to Rampage just the other day about MJF's in character follies and that leading to a poster just out right hating him not even giving a second thought to his in ring ability. A little surprised you didn't see this?It's also possible my memory sucks or my eyes glaze over those posts due to their objective wrongness.
I'm not sure if they did in that match, I think they were solidly behind Darby but I maybe wrong on that. Of course there were multiple examples on the ppv of fans cheering both people regardless of heel/face status.Was the crowd chanting for him last night?

This makes sense, that ending felt both rushed and completely improvised - I wonder what they were actually meant to do with the masks.Also seems that Dax is injured and we were supposed to get a dusty finish that didn't happen.
ahh thought so
unless your name is Cody lolI'm not sure if they did in that match, I think they were solidly behind Darby but I maybe wrong on that. Of course there were multiple examples on the ppv of fans cheering both people regardless of heel/face status.

This has my vote.I think Anxious Millennial Champion is maybe better? more concise for sure.

Oh haha! I borrowed your idea, that was just the easiest way to host the image real quick.

Title matches are 60 minute time limits so I don't know about that.I'm really curious how TK will book Hangman vs. Danielson. My bet is another timelimit draw.
I was there live, and afterwards during commercial, Tony Khan came out and raised their hands on the ramp, so this match got the TK seal of approval.
That's dam good
Think about where both Hangman and Dark Order were at the start of AEW. Hangman was the BC goon, and Dark Order was a dumb joke everyone hated immediately. Now look at how Full Gear ended. I have no faith in any company other than AEW to be able to pull that off.
I think Andrade is the only dude that carries about crowd safety.Just caught up with this whole week's programming.
Punk owes me a beer which I spilled because of what he did.
Great PPV, love to see what's next for Elite :)
