All Elite Wrestling (On Triller TV and ESPN)

[Ry009]

Ok folks. This thread has seen some heated and divisive chat that is taking discussion away from the week to week product. Going forward any WWE vs AEW related discussion should take place here. Examples of this are obviously the CM Punk, Ospreay and Triple H type stuff.

Play Nice - Hot Topic : Tribalism in Wrestling

Rightio folks. Going to trial this as a way for people to express their opinions on the more divisive topics in wrestling in a more controlled environment. The last few years has seen the rise of toxicity in the IWC reach fever pitch, and personally think this board has a great group of...

Last half hour of Collison is highly recommended viewing. I'd been lamenting that the show had felt like an afterthought lately, but the main event was everything I used to love about my weekly Sunday night viewing.

Also, I'm certain Hangman actually pointed out to security the metal bases from the guard rail that ultimately split his head open 5 minutes later. Some pretty unfortunate foreshadowing. Might be worth a re-watch to confirm that.

Lol, I assumed he bladed. Looked fantastic.

If he did it would have been the most impressive gig in history haha.

That was an open wound immediately. Had to be from impact as opposed to cutting.

It also pooled quickly and violently and then ultimately stopped all in the space of 10 minutes, which in itself looked different.

Eddie Kingston just had surgery for his torn ACL.

Yeah, I thought we saw him gig at the hairline on TV, but it might have been him actually going "bloody hell, that hurt" and touching the place where he'd hit himself.

Really cool with Willow wearing Owen's NOD gear.

Interesting developments on Dynamite too.

 

[Quivorir]

For the first time ever I'm interested in Adam page.

Really enjoyed the aftermath of the main event.

 

[Ry009]

Haven't been a huge fan of Page since he won the title, but he's changed things up well, and his new theme is a banger.

More thoughts...

MJF vs Ospreay is 100% the way to go, if you're turning him heel - Ospreay is the only guy I think that MJF doesn't get more cheers even going full blown heel.

End of Dynamite was great. Made Mariah a star in one segment. She really didn't hold back, was great to watch. She knocked it out of the park. Been pretty tired of Toni Storm too, so a Maria world title run will be great.

Danielson and Swerve should be a fun match, and hopefully Danielson finally gets a (likely short) title run.

All In shaping up nicely.

and Mariah winning with the (slight variation of a) victory roll ala Owen at WM10 vs Bret.

Tomohiro Ishii will be with AEW for rest of summer 2024

With him missing out on the NJPW G1 Climax this year, Tomohiro Ishii is set for an extended stay in AEW.

I guess this is good if you're a fan of Ishii

Next week on Dynamite 250:

Not even 2000 people going to next weeks Dynamite atm. Wtf

Good TV doesn’t seem to help with ticket sales.

Saying the current setup is for 2000ish, but arena capacity is 18,000. Spose it's good? I wish they made a bigger deal of 250 as it's def worth celebrating.



Imagine the Summer Series shows at the eSports arena will show that a smaller venue will have far better energy from the crowd than the bigger venues.

They'll sell more during the week with the matches they have announced. Also, apparently they usually do pretty well with walk up sales on the day.

Little Rock is a pretty small town - about the same population as Townsville. 2000 is 1% of their whole population.

Next week on Dynamite 250:

if it wasn't for the title, you could have Britt Baker under a mask. Or another person under the mask who MM thinks is Britt, but Britt causes the distraction finish.

I guess I missed this scoop regarding holo.gram
