    Re: AEW Off-Topic

    Thunderosa definitely works stiff, but she works a rough style on herself too. And there was also that Marina Shaffir match that Thunderosa seemingly derailed.

    Honestly all this backstage stuff bores the hell out of me the older I get. I just want a show that is escapist entertainment.

        So it was Cody Rhodes who was the glue who kept everything together backstage... he left and now all hell is breaking loose.

            I like Sammy. I am eh towards Kingston. Kingston is a great promo but he is very CZW to me.

            Violent, tough guy who isn't a team player. Very mediocre in the ring, and getting to the point where I rather him be off TV.

              I’ll volunteer that if they banish garbage *** Punk back to the shadow realm all their problems will be fixed over night. Just an idea.

                  He’s great on the mic but I think his promos are overrated. Maybe it’s just my pet peeve but he’s terrible at interacting with the camera and he does this weird twitch where he looks away from it while talking and not at the crowd. Pre recorded promos?, he’s excellent. No camera skills though.

                    So far, Eddie reminds me of the "tough guy" version of Bray Wyatt. Can talks his *** off and has boatloads of charisma (or at least to the AEW audience), but management has yet to go "all in" with him.

                    In other words, he talks a big game but rarely wins the big one.

                      Eddie reminds me more of a "tougher/badder" Kevin Owens

                          Pay $50 to watch All Out on PPV or $25 to watch it in theaters.... I guess you could say both are too high given we basically watch WWE PPVs for $10 now a days.

                            Not watching with random people is enough to make me not do the theater option. That said I have yet to fee like I haven't gotten my money's worth out of an AEW PPV before so I'll keep doing it until they force my hand the other way.

                              I'm on the fence when it comes to All Out on Sunday, I didn't buy Double or Nothing back in May. The thing is, Double or Nothing and All Out are their two biggest PPVs of the year but neither of had that feeling of major PPVs. I guess when you take the WCW approach and focus only on TV ratings, with countless specials on free TV, the PPVs don't mean as much.

                                Sure, I'm certainly not gonna try and tell you how to spend your money, but there are at least 3 feuds coming to a head that I really want to see how the final(?) matches play out. Athena vs Jade Cargill, Ricky Starks vs Powerhouse Hobbs, and Jungle Boy vs Christian Cage. Also very interested in the new four-way match for the Women's Interim title.

                                Also I understand by so many complaints that I'm in the minority, but I love that I get rewarded for watching AEW Television. I really did not like it when Raw/Smackdown were very skippable(thank you papa h). There's probably a better balance to achieve between TV/PPV centric, but AEW is at least not far off from my personal preference.
