At least old school NWA drew money in it's time on an nationwide level. When has PWG or any of these other outlaw promotions ever drawn money?
And there's enough fans today that still would watch a modernized version of old school NWA/Jim Crockett.

More than the number of people who watch PWG or whatever west coast outlaw promotion the Elite want to model AEW after.

It would be very hard to replicate a psychology based NWA in today's wrestling climate. You can say well let's modernize it but what would that even look like? Also would it have the financial backing to succeed. PWG essentially is AEW. Which is a hybrid of different styles of wrestling. The only difference is AEW has the financial backing and PWG doesn't. Can it draw money? Of course. Already has. It's reached 11,000, 15,000 and 20,000 attendance gates.
 
Lolz. I like Konnan's podcast but he's really trying hard to deflect the fact he said something dumb by hiding behind the whole "it was a joke" shit

"I got heat..." To "Do you think Konnan was actually hot?" He said he was hot!!! If it wasn't real then why use shoot language?
 
The Good And Bad of Dynamite ...

The Good

Jerry Jarrett Memoriam graphic at the start of the show.

Jim Ross/ Wardlow Sit-down Interview (This is essentially the rebuilding of Wardlow. I thought the interview did a good job of humanizing him in a way fans may not have seen before. We'll see where this goes though. )

Mark Briscoe vs. Josh Woods (Good match but what's the plan going forward for Mark. Is he going to get another tag team partner and defend the ROH Tag Team Championships or will the titles be vacated? He'll have a better chance getting pushed as a tag team wrestler than a singles wrestler. )

MJF/Christopher Daniels segment (I enjoyed this. Nothing more to say than that.)

Jamie Hayter (Wearing those skin tight black vinyl pants. WOW!)

The Bad
Jeff Jarrett, Jay Lethal, Satnam Singh And Sonjay Dutt vs Orange Cassidy, The Acclaimed And Billy Gunn (Why start off the show with this shit? The AEW Tag Team Championship is a joke now. What has become of a great tag team division? Putting the belts on the Gunns makes no sense. But, but, but The Acclaimed are gonna win the belts back at "Revolution". So what? That's not a pay-per-view caliber match. If anything the Acclaimed should've held on to the belts and then dropped them to Top Flight at "Revolution".

And again Jeff Jarrett getting TV time in 2023 makes no sense. Satnam Singh is a big guy who can't do shit in the ring. Jay Lethal is trapped in a faction that nobody gives a damn about and what exactly is Sonjay Dutt even doing? The match itself was whatever. TK please make this shit go away.


Jon Moxley And Claudio vs. RUSH And Prestin Vance (Putting Vance in "Los Ingobernables" has done absolutely nothing for him. He's still the same bland wrestler he's always been. RUSH on the other hand needs a singles push. He's fantastic. I've loved him since first seeing him back in ROH. Seeing Mox and Claudio tag together made me think of them having a tag team championship run in the future. Wouldn't be against it.

This match was meh. Sloppy with a few botches and went on way too long. Kudos to the fan in the audience who held up a sign that read "Botchamania" literally as Claudio completely misses hitting Vance in the head with a wrapped chain around his fist. Also Mox once again blading. They need to make a drinking game based on Mox's blading. It's seriously ridiculous at this point.)


"Jungle Boy" Jack Perry vs Brian Cage
(Cage should've squashed Perry in under a minute but since TK doesn't know how to book big men against smaller men you get illogical shit like this. Perry has no business beating Cage.)

Hangman Page vs. Kip Sabian (YAWN! Kip Sabian sucks. I rather AR Fox get this spot over Sabian.)

Toni Storm vs. Ruby Soho vs Britt Baker (Why was this the main event? Crowd dead for this. Nobody cares. And you wonder why you're ratings are in the toilet.)

Overall this was a bad show. I really don't understand what TK is doing. His booking has gone from bad to worse.

- Why isn't Kenny Omega defending the IWGP United States Championship on the show? We want to see Kenny in singles action defending the belt not just doing Trios matches with the Bucks.

- Where are House Of Black? They appear for a show then disappear and never get any momentum going.

- You have a show in Laredo Texas with a heavy Hispanic fanbase and you don't have the Lucha Brothers wrestling on the show.

- Hikaru Shida should be on the show every fucking week. Turn her heel. P,ut her in the Yakuza white suit and create a Yakuza Joshi faction with Shida as the final boss. They should be doing some kill Bill shit with her. The story is right there to be told. Tell it damnit.
 
Am I the only one who thinks the Judgement Day would be better if Preist was a silent enforcer type i.e. Solo Sikoa?

He's decent enough in the ring but every time he speaks into a mic all I hear is the embodiment of the color green. You can practically see the cue cards he's reading from.

He should be a silent badass while Finn and Rhea do all the serious talking.

They're kinda a joke. You really can't take them serious with Dominic in the group but he does bring comedy during their segments.
