AEW AEW X FORBIDDEN DOOR LIVE PPV THREAD

[aldeniro78]

This wasn't a traditional "end the weekly TV storylines" PPV and Blood N Guts isn't traditional weekly TV.

If it's on the weekly TV show then it's weekly TV. If they want it to be something separate then put it on ppv or a different night.

If it's on the weekly TV show then it's weekly TV. If they want it to be something separate then put it on ppv or a different night.

Or they could have special episodes with special names and do what they want.

There's no written "rules" of pro wrestling that state wrestling companies must abide by some paint by the numbers schedule.

There's shows on the USA Network you might enjoy if you only want to be spoon fed old archaic systems that don't take risks and change it up.

[Prelimtapper]

if great matches are your thing, this was the ppv for you. Wow what a show

 

[KAZSoliloquy]

“you abused me when i was a young boy…” godly commentary line from the opener

also great o’khan’s sell of beretta’s tornado DDT was incredible lol only two matches in so far

 

[KAZSoliloquy]

goddamn the crowd was HOT early. the 1, 2, 3 on the very predictable FTR win was LOUD.

 

[Stargazer Rex]

Me too, lake. I made a horrible mistake

@BigTone

There wasn't a bad match and that's a shoot. A historical night in Our Business the likes of which we may never see again, Roll!

i told u dudes the 1st aew x japan supershow would be great.
what a ppv!

 

[Frank23]

That's a mood.

 

[moonwolf]

@Falsedawn WE DID IT!

 

[Max Power]

Great event regardless.

Lotta folks were feeling kinda hohum going into it with all the injuries and adjustments to the card but it was incredible from the pre-show until the very end.

@Max Power, you're gonna want to check out Forbidden Door.

I skimmed the results earlier so it's unlikely I'd watch. I always base whether I'll watch a ppv based on the build rather than the chance of good matches. I pretty much assumed there would be good "5 star matches" and the like. Happy to hear that so many here and elsewhere enjoyed it.

 

[Max Power]

Damn!

 

[Pittie Petey]

You use the weekly TV to promote the ppv, not the other way around.

Is that how they did it in Memphis?

It was a fantastic show, not a single match was bad. Despite all the injuries or people not there, and not much buildup for most of them there was a bit of everything, just some really good action top to bottom. I like how everyone got a chance to have their moments, like Shooter doing well or Conners putting Miro through a table and getting chants. I’m sure the NJPW guys were happy to hear a crowd cheering for the first time in ages. It was well paced and never felt like it dragged for too long

Only things I wished were different- the co main was anticlimactic, i know Cole was injured so I get it though. If Okadas last rainmaker attempt hypothetically connected it would have made things much less awkward. Mox blading after a sling blade lmao. I love Cesaro, wanted him to win and he’s a great addition to BCC, but his theme sucks and sounds like Christmas music. Minor things aside it was a great few hours of wrestling. I’d give it 5 stars, 6 in the Tokyo Dome
