This "Forbidden Door" PPV is for the markiest of the wrestling marks. LOL
Damn shame CM Punk or Daniel Bryanson can't be on the show to at least give it some personality.
A bunch of foreign guys doing a bunch of moves with little to no storyline does nothing for me.
I have absolutely no interest in watching the show.
Forbidden Door is looking like a live action WCW vs The World show.....

Good!

I didn't realize personality was exclusive to those two wrestlers. There's plenty of personality on this card.

It's not for everyone. I watch New Japan so I know who these wrestlers are and how they're going to interact with AEW wrestlers. For me personally I don't need storylines to enjoy a show. As long as the workrate delivers the show is going to bang. People have become too conditioned to thinking you have to have fancy storylines to enjoy a wrestling match (the WWE Effect). That's what I love about New Japan. The stories are told in the ring. The focus is on the dynamics of the wrestling match. Not promos or elaborate storylines. A great part of what made the Omega/Okada series a classic was the stories both men told in the ring.

Vince done did you dirty fam. lol
 
WWExGGW show in full. Of course none of the WWE women do anything of note but Vince continually tries to bury this

Man those girls gone wild days were hilarious. Ain't no chance in hell they could do that shit today.

First time I ever went to Miami, I went to a Girls Gone Wild shoot at Club Deep in Miami Beach once....shit was lame though. They have to probably film like five parties just to get enough footage for one video.
 
Good!

I'd rather watch matches I've never seen before, with people I've never seen before, who also have different styles, than the same 7 matches over and over again every month with the same people. So what they're not in storylines arguing over prop swords and fake dead brothers, I know them matches finna slap and I don't even watch NJPW.

"Fancy storylines"??? LOL
You mean like storylines that have driven the wrestling business to its biggest heights?
Yeah, let's just forget about all that fancy storytelling and just have guys letting the other guy slap them in the face repeatedly and do a bunch of moves.
There's a reason that style of wrestling only appeals overseas and to a select few here in the U.S.

Oh yeah the storyline that Eric Bischoff took from New Japan to create the nWo. The invasion storyline that was already done in Japan.

In ring storytelling has worked for decades now. It's not just dudes doing a bunch of moves. Get a fucking clue.

Select few my ass. Japanese wrestling has been popular with American audiences for decades now. That shit goes back to the fucking 70's. Why? Because It's always been a great alternative to the WWE. It's presented as a sport and gives off the kayfabe of legit competition. Their yearly events, like the New Japan Cup, the Best of the Super Juniors, the G1 Climax, and Wrestle kingdom further establishes that narrative. The focus and storyline component is on the action in the ring. There's a reason why all the American promotions (WWE included) have worked with Japanese promotions because they're the top dog in regard to the presentation of professional wrestling.
 

Damn didnt know Nattie had this in her...Rhonda might step away from twitter​

This shyt is starting to get personal!
 
Very cheap….

That’s about as bad as when Orton said Eddie Guerrero is rotting in hell.

I never like when wrestlers go that low trying to get heat from the crowd.
Shit I'm today years old knowing his dad is Luke Perry....wow. Even looks like him...yeah I mean at times I can get behind it...I never like it or understand why go that low......but it seems its rarely worth it IMO.

Between this and what Paige said about Charlotte Flair's brother... Has there ever been a point when a wrestler said back-stage "No. I'm not saying that"?
 
Some dream matches that I would like to see that we have not gotten yet with the current AEW roster. NJPW talent is also included. Probably unrealistic that all these matches will happen but TK has a wealth of matches he can go to.

This is actually pretty honorable of Kenny. Despite Cody going back to WWE he was an integral part in the development of AEW. You can't erase that history.


I don't think its honorable...not saying they need Cody to sell the game but I mean he is/was one of their most recognizable wrestlers....makes plenty of sense to put him in there business wise.
