Alrighty, missed the live show due to a quick brake job requiring a two hour drive for surprise new calipers! HoB retained so all is well.

Guess that means Joe might interfere in the trios match...

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

So I guess it's official-- Nigel wants Danielson at All In.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

Hobbs is like Brian from Family Guy. Always talking about his book but never releasing it.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I've always loved Punk and he's been crushing it on Heels and Collision! Loved the main event so much!

I also have such a soft spot for the Colosseum, being a JCP/NWA girl which is why part of me wants this to be the night that Brock takes off. I know he's still learning but I just love the 4H and Arn so much and have many fond memories of them I'd love for Arn to start them up again with a new class <3

(Also I love that JR got out but it really makes me sad how much everything that's happened to him has taken a toll on him you can tell the main event meant a lot to him though even though I kinda wish we got Tony and JR calling it just like old times - no disrespect to Ian and Nigel, who I love!)

Willow has so much natural charisma, she's managed to get this over with basically no promos

Pre-gamer: who you got -- CMFTR or HoB?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

I'm going HoB via BCG/Ricky shenanigans.

Cool idgaf Ricky is amazing already

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Guess this means he isn't wrestling at Wembley though :/

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Also would keep him off All Out, which seems a bit odd

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Caster should be too sad to rap.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I'm still not sure how I feel about Ricky going heel again.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Between the crowd support and his natural charisma kind of puts him in tweener territory. We want to like him because he's cool and passionate, but he's also kind of dick rn and short tempered.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Ricky with two kinds of mic drops. That was great.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Well deserved standing O for Acclaimed/Iron Savages. That was fun.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Looks like Boulder humps turnbuckles now lol

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

He keeps playing his chest as well. He's oddly sexual

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I think it's their new gimmick on BTE/ROH. It's like a spoof on immature gym bros.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Lol that's what I got from them. At first, I was thinking bigger hoss type serious dudes. It then progressed to me thinking of gym bros fucking around.

Here comes Stat caulking guns blazing

😂😂😂 OK I think I already love posh eccentric diva Toni Storm

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Her spiral has been great lol

If she keeps it up, it could make sense for her to take the pin at Wembley. That would drive her even more nuts 😂

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

😂 Omg she has to leave Wembley crying

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

BCG are such lovable scamps lol

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Just from what I've seen of Mercedes and Diamante, I love this victory for them and it fits

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Christian raising the title as if he loses to Darby then the title changes hands.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

What do you think? 60/40 cheers to boos? Maybe less maybe more? (I'm talking Punk's entrance)

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It's hilarious that a guy named Powerhouse Hobbs is so philosophical

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

The real powerhouse is his brain

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

65 billion years Darby? This is why you need to take less bumps.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Worth it for the mics to pick up luchasaurus correcting him

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

Yeah, you could hear him shout "MILLION!" at Darby after he says that.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

How the hell did I miss that crying Darby fan lmao

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Brock had like 30 seconds of offense in that match lol

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

The Champ is HERE!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Poor Brock. Arn talked tough only for him to get his ass kicked

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

This show has flown by already main event time

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

It's been another very good episode. AEW's really on fire at the right time.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Punk is like the only guy who could make this real world championship thing work.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

I'm still not used to seeing Malakai without a beard lol

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

That match fucked!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Whoa! Miro vs Hobbs
