Tag Team Match
Eddie Kingston & Hook are being built for bigger things, so I can’t see them not getting the win unless there’s a big surprise free agent signing in the TBA slot.

200.000 Dollar Four Way Tag Team Match
Bowens and Caster win here to further the story of them being better together than separate even if they can’t stand each other.

Tag Team Match
AJ & QT for the feel good win.

CMLL World Trios Title Match
El Sky Team takes it after shit goes down between Takeshita and Okada

Main Show:

No Holds Barred Match
Kyle O’Reilly. I feel like the more compelling story coming out of this is the fall of the Death Riders, and Mox in particular.

Singles Match
I could see this one going either way, but I think Pac furthers the fall of Mox story more, so I’ll go with that.

1.000.000 Dollar Six Man Tag Team Match
Omega Express takes it here leading to a Bucks face turn

Four Way Tag Team Match
I like the Sisters of Sin winning here, just because them getting to pick a stip for their next match sounds like the most fun.

AEW National Title Casino Gauntlet Match (inaugural)
I’m gonna say one of the TBAs here. I feel like the first champ here is going to be a NJPW or CMLL guy, to help differentiate this belt from all the others.

AEW TNT Title No Disqualification Match
Briscoe. I feel like if they wanted to do an unwilling member of DCF story, they could have done it with Mark Davis, and they chose not to. And The Conglomeration is getting a big push right now.

AEW World Tag Team Title Match
Brodido’s not done yet. They’re so good together.

AEW Women’s World Title Match
Kris winning is the much more interesting path for both Kris and Mercedes, so I’m going with that.

AEW World Title Steel Cage Match
Calling it for Hanger.

That’s fantastic. I’m glad they’re working with him.

This match was an absolute banger and everyone should see it.

Remember when network names meant something? Like American Movie Classics or Arts & Entertainment?

Tanahashi was a guest on Japan Eat, creating a video that I think was designed to appeal specifically to me. https://youtube.com/shorts/hKi1Lyy1Jgo

Da fuq?

That’s beyond dumb. They’re not even signed; WTF are they thinking?

And I thought Miro refusing to job was dumb… At least he had an actual contract before he started being a pain.

I’m glad that they’re using him in that capacity, at least, and that he’s happy with it. He and Santana were a fantastic team.

Yeah, I’m a Jellyfin person myself. But live events are still problematic.

Part of me wants to drop HBO altogether over it.

If I could get Triller TV to work on my Shield, I probably would.

Are there any other countries where HBO has the streaming rights to Dynamite and Collision, besides the US? Got a shiny new VPN, and I was thinking I might try using it to avoid the godawful ICE ads.

I don’t know, Max has been really rough for live events.

Keep in mind, splitting the company is still on the table. Someone like Amazon could swoop in and just buy the Warner Bros. half to get the catalog and HBO Max, and just leave the Discovery half to rot.

Are they really going to hold Andrade to a year long noncompete? That seems absurd.

I’m so glad they brought back the alien gimmick for Stat (in a toned down form, but still). It’s a great bit and really helps her stand out.

I mean, that’d be a pretty pro wrestling thing to do.

He did say he was very happy with the returns from the afternoon shows. Wouldn’t be surprised if we see that more often in the future.

Personally, I hate them, because they mean rushing home from synagogue. But to each their own.

So, this came up in the suggestions after that, and the song it wrote for Hulk Hogan may be the best argument for AI art yet. Don’t want to spoil it, but holy shit does it roast him. https://youtu.be/cUhyLbHRBn8

Apparently it already suggested they bring back Bobby Lashley and give him the Tensai gimmick, so pretty much.

My brain can’t get past the idea that he’s naked under that apron.

A year? That’s insane!

Hopefully Andrade and AEW can lawyer up and get them to back down.
