Ira Gaines Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 I felt sorry for Kingston because he couldn't actually see what happened. Could have taken the fans reaction but even then, he can't be sure how bad it was. Moxley could have said something though. That's not forgetting The Big Show announcing the new guy which didn't happen, the hilarious miss of the Meltzer Driver in the opener, the horrendous machine gun chops in the women's match, and the million roll ups and near falls in every match. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lazy comparison to make for one gubbed finish and an appearance from Christian. If they keep hyping signings to only produce wrestlers that WWE don’t want, then it’s very TNA 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stellaboz Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 If they put them into pathetic storylines like Miro then that's their own fault. If they actually build up an engaging, emotional story with these guys with a huge payoff, it won't matter what or who they were in WWE. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Gaines Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 I'd say they've started to rehab Miro reasonably well after a shocking start but still a long way to go. They need to realise that being on a learning curve is only acceptable for so long though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spears was about the only one close to that and he’s not been much of anything since he joined. It’s not about where talent comes from, it’s how they’re used. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forameus Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 To be fair though, WWE have about 8 million on their roster, and a vast majority of those could be released tomorrow, picked up by another company, and do very, very well given the right booking. Bit harsh to complain about those companies picking them up when it doesn't seem like a bad thing, and as others have said, is their only real choice outside of those not at all interested in WWE. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DA Baracus Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 (edited) Just finished watching the show. It was fairly decent for the most part, with the streetlight being the clear highlight. Really enjoyed that. Women's match was a dud. Battle Royal was ok. Opener was decent. Hardy vs Page was decent. Miro and Kip vs Orange and Chuck was meh. The main event was ok until the end, although it was always going to be hard with such a silly gimmick. I actually thought when the 'bombs' went off that it was on purpose at first, and that Kenny and pals would come back out to point and laugh, with them saying on Dynamite that they didn't need the big explosion because they knew their plan was going to work. Even when they didn't, I was still expecting Kingston to slowly look up and look around in confusion that nothing had actually happened. When I realised he was selling I chuckled. Absolute horse shit stuff that folk are rightly laughing at. It's obviously supposed to write Moxley off TV for a bit too, so f**k knows what they do now and how they try to explain it.

Killiesquirrel Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 Just getting back into wrestling, always been a WWE-only kind of guy (I know...). But just wondering if it’s worth getting into AEW? Certainly well talked about these days, is it worth the hype? Cheers 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chances are there’ll be something on the show you like even if all the styles aren’t to your taste. It’s not perfect but it’s a fun watch every week. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll give it a go, a bit daunting starting from scratch and not knowing anyone (apart from the ex WWE guys obviously) but I’m sure I’ll pick it up quickly! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGoon Posted March 11, 2021 Author Share Posted March 11, 2021 Decent wee segment from Mox/Kingston talking about Sunday. Panic attack stuff is...eh, but think it’s just a case of taking it on the chin and moving on at this point. Cody/Penta feud I am very much into. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
