Very much enjoyed this week's Dynamite. Packed full it was. A great example of a fresh start after the big ppv. Lotta new directions with tons of potential.

Opening segment was very good. Particularly enjoyed Eddie shutting down those dumb What chants. Take that shit to the other show and leave it there. I initially rolled my eyes when seeing Garcia come out, but Jericho's turn was done very well. Interested to see if Jericho can elevate him and 2.0. I wonder if Jericho will go full on and drop Judas? Or does it now fit him more?

World title match was alright. Weird spot to put it in. Hangman put Dante over big time afterwards.

Tag match with Mox/Bryan was good. Result never in doubt. Regal cut a good promo afterwards, even if a tad long.

Pac vs Best Friends dude was fine.

Tully fired??? Kinda came outta nowhere, but again a fresh start can do FTR good imo.

With regards Jeff Hardy: 1) I do hope he is clean and healthy. 2) Great that they used the public domain Hardy's theme. 3) A little weird seeing him and Sting in the ring together, I am reminded of Victory Road '11.

I'm liking Swerve more now. Dude definitely has charisma.

It was largely sink or swim for Wardlow. His first big singles promo. I was a tad nervous for him going in as I had previously heard him in interviews. Very reserved. He nailed it though. Huge star in the making. Just keeps getting better. Loved it.

Tag title match was fine. Lol'd at the pubes line.

It seems that Jade is gonna do the kiss gimmick now. Sweet!

TR vs little one was rough. Pin drop quiet. They have to do a better job laying out/positioning/building women's matches.

Chuckled at Britt referencing TR's boo-boo face at the ppv.

Main event was good. Was not expecting that outcome. Does Sky become a transitional champ? MJF related shenanigans to cost Wardlow next week? I guess we'll see. Popped for PVZ signing her contract on Tay's ass. Horndog JR was all over that potential match.

Enjoyed AEW, Tony going for back to back Booker of the Year titles.
Jericho, much like Flair is a better heel. Maybe he can give those dudes a rub.
Good to see Regal. Really heartfelt promo. Those guys should be a fun tag team.
Wardlow showed me something, I was worried but good promo.
FTR and Tully was a shocker.
Main event was a shocker.
Great to see the Hardy Boys back together. Give them one more title run and then Matt can retire. Jeff still looks good but Matt does not move well anymore.
J.R had me cracking up, he really does not get Danhausen.

Sometimes you gotta do things yourself.

 

[The Clinch]

So is Sammy’s proposing to whoever going to be removed from whatever episode if AEW lands a streaming service?

How many nutmans?

AEW right now is just screaming 99 - 01 WCW. Hotshot booking at a million miles an hour. Let's cram two months of storylines into a two hour show. Stables, stables and more stables!!!

I really hope they can get it together because with that roster there's obviously tons of potential. Just goes to show again how important the writing is, and that cocaine is one hell of a drug.

Hotshot booking? Who?

Hotshotting meaning it seems like Tony is just booking this shit on the fly, making it up as he goes without any long term thought about future storylines and character development/investment.

Yeah, but what feuds are you referring to? I don't think you could call Eddie Kingston's storyline, CM Punk v MJF, or Wardlow's storyline hot shitting. In the case of Wardlow and Kingston those have been brewing for years.

 

[BEAST]

I also want to know which random short term storylines are going on now?

How many nutmans?

42 out of 44 Nutmans. A+ show, The chick match, even though I like Thunder Rosa drug the score down some.

Jericho definitely doesn't deserve to be on that list.
