Needles is XPW shite, Don't like that at all. I reckon the bag over the head spot could have easily been a chain or rope.

 

[Cleavy]

Mone/Shida unfortunately worst match on the main show because everything else was so strong?

 

[Mostyn]

Absolutely awful. An all-timer PPV until that complete s***show main event. Boring match, punctuated with horrible stunts that just made me uncomfortable.

You're completely wrong.

Mone/Shida unfortunately worst match on the main show because everything else was so strong?

It would have been solid if it was just a TV match, but on PPV standards need to be higher.

 

[DarkPhoenix]

The plastic bag spot was one of the stupidest things I've seen in a wrestling ring.
I know it was supposed to be a call back to a classic in ring moment, but it's way too replicable by kids, and kids are too stupid these days.

Better not show any action films then, even the G rated ones.

Wrestlers aren't role models, and they aren't responsible for people's children.

If your kid is that stupid that they're going to replicate it in a school yard, then 1) you have much bigger problems with your child, and 2) they shouldn't be watching wrestling.

In any case, AEW is clearly a 15+ product, I don't think a stupid 7 year old with negligent parents is even a consideration.

Only part of that would of hurt was the metal hitting his shoulders, the plastic buckled and folded away when it hit the head.

This isn’t a new thing chairs have been in wrestling for decades, they know how to gimmick them.

 

[Colonial]

So why do it?

To bring out emotions.

 

[ptrg]

For the debate it whether it was a gimmicked chair at the end - I think this proves it.
Clearly has pink tape on a leg to signify it's the "correct" chair

 

[mickelboy182]

Yeah, righto, I take it all back. I still don't think the visual of it is great, nor is it necessary. And it explains why it was shot a bit strangely - cos it actually looks quite shit. So why do it?

Didn't look shit on the broadcast - certainly had you biting and insulting others, so I'd say that's mission accomplished as far as selling it

what's your alternate finish to the match?

 

[DarkPhoenix]

The ring mics were turned way up for the chair shot. It sounded way less impactful live in the arena. Made it sound like a gun shot when it gave way almost immediately

 

[mickelboy182]

I still really hate the spot, just for different reasons than I initially thought.

I'm just glad I don't need to hand in my engineering degree

 

[THE EQUALIZER]

Another hugely enjoyable show and deserves all the accolades it's receiving.

Not a great night for the babyfaces, with the lack of feelgood moments compared to Wembley, but this show had a much darker theme, that escalated as the night went on.

Nice to see Garcia get some measure of satisfaction even though he lost. Will need to step up with some big names missing for a while.

Ospreay v Pac easily match of the night. Couldn't believe some of the stuff they were nailing.

Statlander v Nightingale was a pleasant surprise and delivered big time.

I think it's save to say we have a Mone problem. 4th PPV in a row she has been given the 3rd last match and again her match was average and didn't spark the interest that it should have given the amount of time set aside for her matches.

Danielson v Perry was very good and helped elevate Perry. The aftermath was intriguing. Huge interest to see what follows.

The main event was brutal as expected, and Page got his win. Would have liked to see Swerve pinned, but I can understand why he wasn't.

Another win for AEW with PPV's, and a relatively clean slate story wise heading into Grand Slam and WrestleDream. Pretty much anything is on the table at this stage, so it should be an interesting ride.

 

[Ry009]

I really hope Willow is the Brisbane show, she low-key became one of my favourites on AEW. Being a squeaky clean babyface is almost impossible in 2024, there aren't many doing it better than she is.

She's seems like a genuinely cool chick and it comes across that way. That and having bucketloads of talent - so much to like.

 

[Cleavy]

Meltzer really really liked the show:
Garcia vs. MJF 4.5
Castagnoli & Yuta vs. Young Bucks for the AEW World Tag Team Championships 4
Ospreay vs. PAC for the AEW International Championship 5.5
Statlander vs. Nightingale in a Chicago Street Fight 4.75
Briscoe vs. Cassidy vs. Takeshita vs. Okada for the AEW Continental Championship 4.25
Shida vs. Mone for the AEW TBS Championship 2.75
Danielson vs. Perry for the AEW World Championship 4.75
Page vs. Strickland in a Lights Out Cage Match 4.5
--------------------------
4.75 for Danielson/Perry is ridiculous to me, however.
