Shibatember Wrasslin |OT| The wreslter never dies
- Thread starter Heromanz
- Start date

Yeah, she said to someone at TJPW today apparently that she already has overseas dates scheduled for fall.
It´s the Micro division, friend:
Whole Britain wanted him to get the belt and Gedo denied them.
Yeah, her performance was bellow average, she mistimed a lot of her moves. I am not liking how AEW is structuring singles women´s matches.
I never want to hear another complaint from a gargano match after that ladder match last night. Fucking piledrivers from the top of a ladder and back within a minute.
My All Out thoughts, will catch up on the thread later:
Private party rule
The Dino team is so fun. Daniels' old man floss fucking killed me. LUCHASAURUS
WTF why is this so early? I like that they've added records to the namebars, v cool touch. Another very bad theme for PAC. Fucking hell that's twice in this match they've clattered the barricade, move them back ffs. Either I was enjoying this match too much I didn't notice, or they stopped doing time announcments, just be consistent! Loved this, I'd at least put it on a par with Okada/Suzuki, if not above just cause it was so much more gogogo. Kenny has his mojo back. A+
JR: [on stapling a cigarrette] "That's classic catch-as-catch can wrestling" Well done JR, finally got a good joke in, I laughed out loud at that one
JR DID A SWEAR. "I've seen a brainbuster to the chair before and that was one of em" fucking what jim
I don't know how this match turned into a JR review, but I'm loving the match. A good old garbage plunder, fun for everyone. JESUS CHRIST JOEY that moonsault to nothing YEAHHHHH THE TACK SKATEBOARD OH DARBY HAS THE BARREL YES YES YES BARRELL COFFIN DROP THIS RULES AEW hardcore division stays winning, needs the upgrade to a deathmatch division tho, shame TNT are COWARDS
I like the Dark Order act and the Smash Bros are a great team, but the crowd seems like actively silent, I don't know the problem beyond just people still don't know who they are. They always seem to *kind of* get the crowd a little by the end but that doesn't stick from crowd to crowd. Maybe once we're a few weeks into TV.
Crowd getting a little tired, but Shida/Riho doing their best to wake them up. JR stop complaining about wrestlers and referees doing the wrong thing fucks sake. This was really fun, even with the crowd on mute. Nyla/Riho should be a fun dynamic, and you've got the previous Riho win over Nyla. Should put the belt on Shida tho
A MIKEY RUKUS JOINT
STAR TREK DDP HOLY SHIT. MJF doing the Ready to Rumble "diamond upside down is a pussy" spot to DDP my god
Cody just eating the belt to the neck and booting the shit out of Spears was hype. The Arn pop was nuts, still a p good spinebuster. Why is Tully just wandering off? I'd have to rewatch to know if I'd rank this last or above Aldis in the "Cody Big Match" canon, but that's not a bad thing, this was a worthy edition of that.
THE LADDER SLINGBLADE. THE THROUGH THE LADDER DESTROYER. YOO THE TOP OF THE LADDER DESTROYER. I didn't enjoy the last one of these matches, it was just very uninteresting to me. Maybe I just needed to have a mental break and write one of these matches off to come back fresher, maybe it's the addition of the ladders. This is doing it for me though. Fuck that double table bump from Nick was disgusting OH GOD Matt fell on the ladder
Glad LAX went for AEW in the end
Does that mean Kong vs Kong at Full Gear?
Good for Aubrey reffing the main.
A FUCKING HORSE
lmao at this fan when Jericho takes the cover off the barricade "EXPOSE IT! EXPOOOSE IT" I liked how they turned it around when Jericho got bust open to Hangman doing pretty much exactly what Jericho would have done, and just precision work over the eye after the early going of Jericho working his one body part. The finishing stretch was excellent. JUDAS EFFECT looking good again (I remain the only person on this bandwagon). This wasn't a classic by any stretch, and not a bad match by the same stretch. My least favourite Jericho match of this run, but it more than held my attention. That's probably not what you want for your first title match, but you have a champion now to build on top of, let's see how they do with an actual foundation going forward.
My fave five so far from this weekend (Royal Quest + AEW):
1. PAC/Omega
2. Suzuki/Okada
3. Bucks/Lucha Bros
4. THE CRACKER BARREL CLASH
5. Riho/Shida
On to Takeover!

All In had a better crowd so was maybe a better live experience but quality wise All Out destroyed it. Extremely consistent, even the stuff people didn't love was still good, just not as good as everything else
Just put on entertaining shows and let the wrestlers do cool shit bayyybeeeee
I feel like the Cracker Barrel Clash

I see voices of wrestling and Trevor are complaining about the secrecy of the Kylie stuff as if AEW is hiding it to protect themselves. Wondering what was going on is fine, we're all wondering but whatever happened seems to be personal for Kylie and thet should really shut up about this kind of conspiracy shit.
A looot of TNA 2005 sounding themes on this AEW show. Did they find an unmarked hard drive filled with random beats and go, good enough, might as well save a buck where we can? I guess they can save another buck by reusing the themes when people rotate in and out, because it's not like anyone is going to remember who used what and when.
What pisses me off even more is that the themes they licensed for use (so any themes that people were/are using outside of AEW) are good for the most part. Not some masterpieces of composing, but at least they have solid energy and sound like there were live humans involved in the recording process. Like, Cody's theme is the worst sort of buttrock, but it works perfectly well as wrestling entrance music.
Whatever, rant over. I'm sure that someone somewhere is working very hard to make those themes (and probably under harsh deadlines and the vaguest of directions), but entrance music should make an impression on the audience, and so far the impression I'm getting is that for half the entrances there should be a "music altered for copyright reasons" disclaimer at the top of the screen.

As okay as someone signed to ROH can be. But seriously I'm glad he's not injured.
Pair of creeps wanting scoopz on something that's absolutely none of their business.
Yeah. It was also disappointing to see that SRS also retweeted Voices of Wrestling saying this stuff.
VoW weren't mad about anything. They were getting on Rovert for being mad at people not reporting the truth when he himself seems to know it and isn't saying anything.
More of a pushback against the "wow can't believe people don't know this" style of tweeting
Is that it? Maybe I read it wrong for VoW's part. I honestly can't tell now that you said it like that. I originally read it as them saying AEW's controlling the story and someone should say something as if to back up Rovert saying they were protecting themselves. I guess twitter just isn't good for conveying some stuff.
Yeah, they later tweeted this when someone said it might be a private thing.
Basically saying "report what you know or shut up about it and stop speculating or talking around it"
Oh okay, That's better. Thank god now Rovert is the only piece of shit in this situation as normal.
Thought All Out was a great show overall, with only the Dark Order/Best Friends match being the real lull in proceedings until Orange Cassidy showed up.
MOTN for me was Cody/Spears, because we all know I'm here for that carny nonsense in my matches, not workrate. AEW's hidden strength though seems to be that it's unifying a bunch of styles you'd have to go to different promotions for, and putting them under one easy to view promotion on TV/PPV.
However, I am super pissed off at what happened with Pharaoh the dog. I've seen that they've addressed it post-show and were angry too, but it shouldn't have been able to happen in the first place. If you're bringing any animal out, don't have pyro, then you can't mess up the timings.
