THE WRESTLING THREAD: BROCK LESNAR HAS ENTERED THE CHAT!!!
- Thread starter ArsenalCannon357
- Start date
Never would ever think Flair would put over Darby.
That’s some dumb ass shit to praise him for too. You don’t want to be the guy known for doing crazy spots.
That's pretty much Mick Foley though. I use to call Foley the "Bump God" because he would take some insane bumps throughout his career. Hell, Terry Funk took some crazy bumps too. His exploding barbed wire death matches in Japan are legendary. Darby is like the new generation of that shit. Dude truly doesn't give a fuck. He's talking about climbing Mount Everest in 3 weeks. Insane shit. If Sting can't get through to him then nobody can.
Yeah Mick had some legendary matches too though as well as was great on the mic but there’s probably a argument for him too.
Finally got a chance to watch the TV coverage of 'Revolution' and it's good to see that the crowd came across well on TV.
A couple of things though:
That's fine and all, but they've got to have coherent storylines moving forward because there will be new viewers watching for the first time tonight I'm sure.
A couple of things though:
- I had no idea JR called the last two matches. They made no mention of it in the arena. They should have had an introduction for JR especially to call Sting's last match.
- I also had no idea Magnum TA and Nikita Kolof were there as well sitting ringside. No mention of Jake the Snake being there as well. That's something that should be mentioned by the announcer in the building.
- I went back and watched some of the matches, especially the Ospreay/Takeshita match. I would say that match is currently leading for Match of the Year. Ospreay will definitely have to tone things down now on a weekly basis in order to avoid injury.
- The Sting match was almost impossible to keep up with in-person and wasn't much easier to keep up with on TV. That Darby spot looks dumber and dumber each time I see it.

One of the goats. Her All Japan run was legendary. Her WWE run was just okay but that was mainly due to Vince not really putting any effort into the women's division at that time. Bull's rivalry fued in WWE was with Medusa (Alundra Blayze). It's cool that they're acknowledging her for the Hall Of Fame. Honestly, I would have Medusa induce her considering she's from Bull's peer group.
Interesting. I need to see it from a different angle and a wider shot. I like the color scheme and the tunnels are back but it looks very basic. I need to see more.
It's very important that they hit a home run tonight.
1. Consitent storylines
2. Good booking
3. Good presentation
Looks like it was a smart move to send Jack Perry to New Japan. There he can work on his craft and come back to AEW a better wrestler.

Enjoy yourself!
It definitely looks good seeing it in motion.
Let him walk. Matt Hardy's AEW run has been weak.
Two of the goats going at it!
This I actually like. Keep JR to PPV's only.
What's crazy about Darby is for all the crazy bumps he takes he manages to never be out for any lengthy time due to injury whereas other wrestlers seem to get hurt and be out for months on stuff that doesn't look that bad.
It's not the best but it's up there. The 1995 match between Aja Kong and Manami Tokyo for WWWA Title in my opinion is the number one women's match of all-time. Aja and Bull had an absolute war in this cage match though. Great stuff. I think I still have the VHS tape of this somewhere in my basement.
My favorite 3 AEW themes right now.
#3. Swerve's "Big Pressure Remix" (This song is such a vibe)
#2. Julia Hart's "Harder Hart" (Fits her character perfectly)
#1. Bullet Club Gold's "Burning Daylight" (Goes harder than fuck and fits their Outlaw Bang Bang Gang gimmick)

Youth and being a smaller guy do wonders lol
I used to watch Dark just for Julia's entrance
This rivalry was so much on another level, they have yet to be able to create anything close
I swear to God I hate Ricochet 
Great segment! So the Young Bucks kicked Kenny Omega out of the Elite and Okada joins the Elite and will be working heel in AEW. Corporate Okada! I love it! Storyline wise they can build up Kingston vs. Okada for the next ppv. Okada takes the Continental Crown championship off of Kingston then when Omega comes back they can do Omega/Okada 5 at "All In".

Excellent match by Will Ospreay and Kyle Fletcher. My only nitpick is too many nearfalls for a tv match. That works great for a ppv match but for tv you have to tone it down.
So it looks like Ospreay's first feud will be Bryan Danielson. They have plenty of time to build it for the next ppv. I think the benefit of having a lot of ppv is you don't have to put filler on tv anymore. You can start building stories/feuds immediately because there's another ppv right around the corner. This may help TK have more focus/direction with his booking.
