Fantastic match to open Dynamite and I pretty much called it. Knew it was going to be a draw. Give the people a taste and leave them hungry for more.
Lol, they were boooing the fuck out of Cody. They did not want him to go over. It's long overdue for Cody to turn heal anyway.
I want to watch Dynamite but I haven't had cable in over in decade.
Good fun match between FTR and Sting/Darby Allin. Love that finish too.
Great match to start off the show between Danielson and Omega. Their PPV match, whenever they have one, will be epic.
The women's match at the end was meh, nothing great there.
Cody has gone Hollywood and barely wrestles anymore. Not surprised the fans are booing him.

Good show. Man does Dynamite fly by. Baker had to retain. They'll probably feed Baker one more person before they set up the Thunder Rosa feud.
You got to find the online links Bruh. Just DM me and I'll hook you up.
Oh indeed and by that time I don't think Omega is the champion. They're going to build Hangman back up and have him take the belt off of Omega and then Omega will be freed up to have his ppv match with Danielson.
Ruby has an interesting look but she's not a good worker and Britt is not good enough to carry her. That's why that match was rather lukewarm. Baker usually has her best matches when she wrestles someone who can work like a Shida, Rosa, or Statlander.
It's not really because he's gone Hollywood it's more so that fake American patriotism bullshit that he does. People are sick and tired of it. It's a cheap gimmick to get people to cheer him. He needs to turn heel.
I didn't like them jobbing out Ruby Soho like that. I get it took a ton of interference for Baker to win, but still.
Ruby is actually a good worker when she has a good opponent. It just seemed like her and Britt didn't click in the ring tonight.
Cody just doesn't connect with the audience anymore. Between the game show and now reality TV show and his gimmick, he's starting to get 'go-away' heat. He's always come off kind of pretentious to me anyway.
He acts like he's changing the world and making it a better place by having a black wife and now a mixed child. LOL
Ruby will be alright. She needs to spend some time on Dark and Elevation to tighten her skills up. When they build her back up she'll be a better wrestler for it.
This is what I'm talking about though. The testament of a good worker is someone who can have good to great matches with any opponent. Rosa doesn't have bad matches. Shida doesn't have bad matches. Deeb doesn't have bad matches. When you put two average workers in the ring together this is what you get.
Exactly, which is why a heel change would do wonders for him. He probably won't do it but that's what's needed.
At this point Omega's heel run is kind of dead in the water. He's a corny, annoying heel who doesn't know how to generate legit heat where people are invested in him losing with his promos or in his matches outside of people interfering. May as well take the title off of him and then since they need to build Hangman Page back up have Page beat Omega in a feud as he gets reestablished. Then have Page win the title if he's going to win it soon. Him beating Omega probably won't mean much especially with all of these bigger wrestlers being around.
I don't think that it's the fake patriotism even though that was a stupid addition to try to sell the match with Agogo. It's the over the top nature of everything that he's involved in from his entrance to him having 25 people associated with him, to the random out of nowhere feuds and the weird ways that they go and the fresh out of theatre class promos that he feels the need to give.
Actually it will mean a lot considering the slow burn that they've invested into this feud. People are going to go nuts when Page kicks out of the One Winged Angel and beats Omega. The thing I like about Punk and Danielson is they're appreciative of the young talent in AEW and want them to get their due. They're not going to play politics and hog the spotlight.
That too. He's a ego maniac which is better suited for heel than a babyface.
FYI: They're taping "Rampage" right now after Dynamite. Looks like Punk is back to wearing trunks.
Like dude said, they have $200M a year coming in the next 3 years & that's just from one of their deals. Naturally they want it, but it's not their focus. Khan has told the world the future is in streaming...that's where they're focused for the next deals. Demos is some shit Meltzer came up with.
How was Owen doing those risky spots any different than what Sting was doing?
I like Omega as a wrestler but I agree I find him and the Young Bucks outdated and corny. Like they’re doing a NWO impression….
Well, what we know from Martha Hart's investigation is the rigging crew WWE hired for that ppv used a cheap rigger/clip that was designed for sail boat masks and inadequate to hold the weight of a human body at that height. The guy supervising the stunt Bobby Talbert had no experience in rigging anyone. They didn't know what they were doing.
In WCW with Sting I have no idea what rigging crew they used. That information has not been made available to the public. Considering Sting is alive I guess they knew what they were doing.
And for Vince to continue the show after Owen's death was bullshit. That's now a crime scene. The show should've been stopped and immediately taped off by the police. Fans should've been refunded their money. Imagine the wrestlers that had to wrestle after that with Owen's blood fresh on the mat. Imagine JR and Lawler having to do commentary after something like that. The whole thing could have been prevented.
Considering "The Elite" and "Bullet Club" are heavily inspired by nWo I can see why they act that way.
Aew isn’t even ECW in Dey prime.
and nothing beats 1997-1996-1998 WCW
they had they best wrestling game of all time.

Does anybody have any footage?
I remember watching that ppv and wondered why they kept saying Owen harts name
smh Vince is the devil
mark Henry and several others was upset about how that night went.
Vince has the footage and it will probably never see the light of day.
Link?
I think it is. The AEW fanbase has the same energy as the ECW fanbase (hell a lot of the fanbase that made up ECW are AEW fans now) and the workrate/quality of the matches are on par with ECW if not better.
WCW had the best angle of all time in the nWo and had the popularity but in regard to workrate/wrestling they weren't the best. In regard to workrate AJPW (All Japan Pro Wrestling) was the king in the 90's with NJPW coming in second.
Link for what?
NWO Wolfpack >>>>>> anything else
It was more of a speculated guess. WWE filmed the ppv why wouldn't they film the stunt? Do I know for sure that there's footage? No.
In regard to angle/stable yes. Not in regard to actual wrestling.
