Apparently the World Title Eliminator Tournament Final has been moved to Dynamite next week.

Starks vs Archer on Rampage, winner faces Brian Cage on the Full Gear pre-show, and the winner of that faces Ethan Page in the final on Dynamite.
 
I wonder why. Seems like Full Gear might end at a reasonable time.
I guess it's unfair that Starks, Archer and Cage might have to do double-duty, if they made the semis and the final at Full Gear.

BCC is rubbish it's done nothing for any of those guys.

Regal and MJF take my money.

Part of the reason that Regal's turn would be so amazing is cos of BCC.

So I feel like you've contradicted yourself there.

If BCC ends on Sunday, it will have done heaps to elevate Yuta, Garcia, and MJF.

By the way, MJF has a new tshirt on PWtees that's half his face, half devil mask. Its amazing, I'll be picking it up during Black Friday sales this weekend.
 
Yuta - Yes, got him out of a group he didn't fit in with and was an afterthought.

Garcia - You could argue that's more Jericho and JAS.

They haven't been bad, as mickelboy182 said, they just have been utilised in an interesting way.

I thought they were going for a whole serious AEW vs the light-hearted AEW as a heel stable, but they've just been 4 guys that occasionally tag and have Regal commentate/manage.

Not bad in the slightest, just scope for so much more with that group.


I really hope that Tony gets some TV time soon. I understand why stables are a thing with AEW but with the roster size now, guys like Garcia/Yuta get lost in the shuffle. I'd happily watch them wrestle each other very week. Their match at DBD was great.

The BCC vs the Elite would be a great feud. They could even bring in Adam Page to the Elite. The seriousness and legitimacy of the BCC vs the showmanship and spotfest of the Elite, could be a series of great matches. Claudio and Danielson have the ability to adapt and make the Bucks go up on their level, rather than compromise by allowing themselves to lower their standards down to the Bucks level.

FTR were able to make the Bucks have a great match with them, simply by dictating the terms of the match.
 
Not sure if FTR “made the bucks have a great match” Id argue that The Young Bucks had better matches than FTR in AEW up to that point.
It was the first match of the Bucks I really did enjoy and could rewatch. It felt like a throwback match to the 80’s. The Bucks are good, but they are not great. I just find that generally they are too “spotfest” focused rather than story focused, which is my main preference. I just felt that FTR was able to tone them down a little. FTR was just coming off their first match from the Briscoe’s which was another great performance.

My favourite 2 tag teams to watch in the past 10-15 years would be FTR followed by the American Wolves (Davey Richards and Eddie Edwards) would love to see a Match between these 2 teams.

so yes I am a little bit biased towards FTR.

I’d say FTR and The Bucks are the 2 best tag teams in the world. Hopefully we get FTR vs Bucks III soon
 
Rampage has gone back to bordering on completely unnecessary. Apart from a couple of promos that further feuds, nothing on it ever really matters.

It'll get worse in the next few weeks leading up to Final Battle too :(

Picks for tomorrow?

I think Regal is turning heel and MJF wins.

Not sure I can see Jericho headlining Final Battle - I can see Danielson vs Claudio amidst a crumbling BCC headlining it and being a big deal. So Dragon I think.

They'll coronate Hayter tomorrow - somewhat mercifully ending Storm's interim run. I think they'll want to do Hayter vs Saraya pretty quickly and get the belt on Saraya with Hayter ultimately turning face after that. Saraya obviously beats Baker. I'm hype AF for that match.

No real reason for Wardlow to lose to Joe or Hobbs. They might do Joe vs Wardlow at FB title for title.

There's no way The Acclaimed loses tomorrow. Swerve and Keith Lee will break up tomorrow.

I hope the Jarrett match is one and done. Have Sting pin him, pay him, thanks JJ. I could see them doing the 1 on 1 on TNT for old time's sake.

Hopefully they blow off JB and Luchasaurus tomorrow, JB has to sink or swim on his own now so he needs the win.

Cargill is going to murder Nyla.

The trios match is probably the least predictable. I think The Elite win it, Death Triangle breaks up, and House of Black leaves everyone laying?

The Devil wins he has to surely?

The rest I don't care for I'll buy PPV for that match have enjoyed Storms run hope she wins.

The Elite don't deserve to win it, that's just rewarding terrible behaviour, will be such a classic Tony thing to do them going over.

I actually hope MJF wins clean can always do the Regal twist in the rematch.

I hope he does, I ordered a shirt of his on PWtees Black Friday sale! It's a bad ass shirt IMO.

I stupidly booked a hair and beard trim right in the middle of the PPV tomorrow (job interview Monday). I've bought it, but I'm not sure when I'll watch it. Which always feels a bit dumb when you can't watch it live.
