I keep trying to figure out if he is holding up the natzi salute or if he is adjusting the camera. Based on the mustache I'm guessing the former but it might be him being caught at a bad moment and she is running with it

Shit I triedMan what?
Lash Legend is slept on.
She bad as fuck!
I watched this match and she shits all over Nikkita Lyons and I'm a Nikkita Lyons fans.
Legend problem is she seems redundant she a hybrid of Naomi and Bianca but too green to pull it off. She should be in a program with Raquel Gonzalez
Lash Legend's problem is that dumbass name and she's way too inexperienced. A program with Raquel Gonzalez wouldn't help her. She shouldn't have been put on TV so soon.
Thoughts on Dynamite ....
Christian/Adam Cole: Started off bland but picked up midway through and end up being a very good match. On next week's Rampage we get Cole/Page II.
Max Caster/Samoa Joe: Joe looks pretty good for someone who hasn't wrestled in a while. He's going to be hard to beat in the Owen Hart tournament. Post match Jay Lethal and Sonjay Dutt reveal that they have a big surprise for Joe on next week's Dynamite.
Capt. Shawn Dean/Shawn Spears: This match was just a catalyst to continue the story of Wardlow trying to get to MJF through the crowd. Shawn Dean ended up getting the pin after Spears was distracted by Wardlow's presence.
Eddie Kingston, Santana and Ortiz Segment: Kingston is one of the best promos in the business. So good at selling a match but I'm just not interested in the Jericho Appreciation Society.
Jade promo: Pretty good. Jade is improving leaps and bounds on the mic. That was probably her best promo to date.
The Butcher & The Blade/The Hardys: Meh, I felt like they were just going through the motions in this match. The Hardy's are just a bore.
Hikaru Shida/Julia Hart: Meh match. Julia doesn't do anything with conviction. So slow on everything she does. Shida tried to make this match somewhat decent but it wasn't happening. Also, they're really slow burning this Julia Hart eye patch stuff. Is she joining the "House Of Black" or not? They need to do something before people stop caring all together. Post match Serena Deeb came out and tried to attack Shida with a chair but she was ready for it and held Serena off with her Kendo stick. Will probably get the continuation of that feud in the Owen Hart tournament.
Young Bucks/FTR II: Holy fuck what a match. This was better than any match on both nights of Wrestlemania 38. It's like the Young Bucks and FTR came out there and said let me remind you who the fuck we are. Easy 5 star match. It hasn't even been a week and FTR have already been involved in two 5 star classics.
Good show this week. Looking forward to Rampage.

LOL.
Sucks that Cody had to leave a group of dudes that seemed like was really his friends but 20-30 years from now WWE will def be around. I doubt AEW will be. Gotta build your legacy with the top company.

I think it will be! If ROH can be relevant for as long as it has been, I think AEW will be also. TNT has been happy with their ratings, their shows haven't slumped in quality whether you like them or not, they've been consistent. Will they be a WWE? HELL NO! They're just another option to watch.
Some levity
It really delivered on all levels.
This will be my second AEW show. Looking forward to it!
It now stands for Forever The Revival.STARTED OFF AS THIS...
Thanks.
This is a fantastic business move. Gives AEW more exposure in the Japanese market.
Meltzer got this one right. Everybody and their mama knows this was a five-star match.
Cornette puts over the Bianca Belair/Becky Lynch match. I do agree with the criticism that Bianca's gimmick is always the same no matter the circumstance. She's always coming out twirling their hair skipping to the ring no matter what. This is supposed to be a grudge match and a blow off to the Becky feud. Maybe you want to be more serious this time around and walk to the ring.

The AEW owner & booker says an unnamed ‘independent study’ has confirmed an expensive to maintain ‘staff running thousands of accounts and an army of bots’ are responsible for much of a significant portion of the hate his company gets on the web.

Tony Khan insinuates WWE is behind ‘much of the staunch anti-AEW online community’
The AEW owner & booker says an unnamed ‘independent study’ has confirmed an expensive to maintain ‘staff running thousands of accounts and an army of bots’ are responsible for much of a significant portion of the hate his company gets on the web.
Firstly, he never said that WWE was behind it nor did he use the word "ALL". That's the journalist (and I use that term loosely in regard to that site) in the article speculating that. Secondly, are there troll bot accounts on Twitter and other social media platforms that promote Anti-AEW hate? Of course. I see it everyday just as I see anti -WWE bots out there that promote anti-WWE hate. Twitter is a very messy place and a lot of times it's not indicative of fans who actually go to shows. I would be very interested in seeing the data from that independent study.
"Who’d pay for such a *wildly* expensive thing?" That's a quote from his tweet.
No, he didn't say WWE outright, but it doesn't take a genius to decipher who he thinks is behind whatever smear campaign he thinks exists.
He actually just clarifed his statements.
Wrestling Inc. reached out to Khan for comment and got the following response:
“Waiting for final study but here’s what my expert confirmed. It’s people with real live accounts making posts and then using their bots to manipulate the social channel algorithm by backing them up with engagement from a made-up Twitter identity. Social media teams will often fight on this. Bots are great for numbers and when they’re gone, you’ll see a dip in digital conversation impressions – both those were either negative sentiment or not real anyway.
“For example, I tweet Megha only eats rotten bananas. I throw say 18 bots behind it (which takes about 5 minutes to do). Twitter security can’t differentiate when done well (neither can most social teams). The problem becomes every time people type Megha into the search bar, because of a real account supported by bots- the first suggested result would be tweets about Megha eating rotten bananas. I’m oversimplifying, but that’s the 5 cent version of what’s happening.”
I think the sentiment of what TK is ultimately trying to prove is the AEW hate is over exaggerated. His point is if you hate AEW that's fine and dandy but don't unethically use troll bot accounts on social media to over exaggerate that hate. I don't believe TK is tone deaf to criticism as long as it's done in a constructive way.
It would be good to have ROH on a better network and time slot than what it was on Sinclair media. I remember I had to watch ROH at midnight on Saturday nights. Then they ran the previous week's episode on Sunday mornings around 11:00 a.m.
