Sherrif John Bunnell Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Hook was pretty impressive for his first TV match. His charisma is off the scale. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djchapsticks Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Was just coming on to say the same thing about Hook. He looked like he's been doing it for years in terms of both ring work and showing attitude and charisma. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb_diamond Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 His character work is superb, all the wee touches. His in ring work is pretty good too. Huge upside and potential! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Enjoyed how he did the release suplex just like his old man did (I reckon if you did a side by side with that and Taz doing it to Kurt Angle it would be almost the same), and enjoyed how he now has the Tazzmission/Kata ha jime (was waiting for him to put it on) but has renamed it. He looked really smooth in the ring too. Guy has a big future. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGoon Posted December 11, 2021 Author Share Posted December 11, 2021 In terms of overall presence, that’s about as impressive a debut outing as anyone, ever. If they want to make him the made Jade Cargill (he’s better than her) and keep it to competitive squashes for a while, I’d be game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they want to make him the made Jade Cargill (he’s better than her) and keep it to competitive squashes for a while, I’d be game. I think he'll benefit from still largely seconding Team Taz. With the number of stables AEW has he can gradually get physical and have it lead to a meaningful match whether trios/tag/singles. He's not going to benefit from beating randoms no one cares about, that's why it helped that it was Fuego in there last night. I've seen him compared to the heel Orange Cassidy in terms of the silent, cool, and assured presence he gives off. His eventual promo work is going to determine if can be a real breakout star. As he's looking like he'll be solid in the ring. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grumswall Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 Fuego sold like a champ for hook as well, it has to be said. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherrif John Bunnell Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 I like Ogogo and realise he's working the marks, but he needs to wind it in a bit with his attempts to start Twitter beef with every indy wrestler. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ach to be fair to him, he's most likely not going to have a long career given his chronic eye issues that ended his boxing career so he's just trying to make a name for himself in the time he has. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGoon Posted December 16, 2021 Author Share Posted December 16, 2021 A slow burner, but my word what an hour from Danielson & Page. I wouldn’t have done another draw, and would’ve preferred Page beating him at the death. Guess it leaves the door open for a rematch but not really sure what you do after something like that 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess it leaves the door open for a rematch but not really sure what you do after something like that Danielson should have definitely taken that pin at the end. He was 100% beaten at the end anyway as the Buckshot is well protected that I don't think anyone kicks out of it. So you may as well have allowed the pin. He doesn't lose a shred of credibility in doing so and Page gets a monster of a first win as champion. A draw would have been OK had it not happened so recently with Danielson and Omega.

Bert Raccoon Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 As much as I still enjoy AEW, I feel it's slightly lost it's shine the bigger it's getting. Now it's filled with actual stars it just doesn't feel the same. Kinda like that feeling when you first get into a band and they're not well known it loses its shine when they get bigger, you can't fault their progress but just doesn't feel the same as it did at the beginning 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherrif John Bunnell Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 For an hour long match, that was fantastic. Danielson is a wrestling genius and Hangman proved that he can go with the top guys at the highest level. As has been said above, I think Danielson could gave taken the loss, but I'm assuming they are going to have a rematch with a stipulation at the big TNT special next month. I really enjoyed MJF Vs Dante Martin as well. Some of Martin's spots were a little bit off, but him and MJF still had great chemistry. I like that Ryback has fallen so low in the industry that he is now just a name to insult people with 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen this said elsewhere. Battle of the Belts is only going to be 1 hour and they're presumably going to showcasing the other titles. I'd see them maybe revisiting things for Revolution. A bit like with Danielson v. Omega drawing, there isn't the obvious parting of the ways to move onto other things. Maybe this is where a debut comes along to keep Danielson busy through January or news of the Owen Hart Cup that could provide a detour for him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
