Re: AEW Off-Topic

MJF was making the media rounds today...which means you get to play the game of what are shoot answers and what are work answers.

There were moments where he sounded like such a company man though...for both companies. Dude is great.

CM Punk contract buyout likely, wasn't mentioned last night as one of the prestigious names that have held the ROH title.

But his merch is still prominently featured on the Shop AEW homepage. Doesn't mean he won't get bought out, but the ROH title thing seems like a reach to me.

Yeah maybe. His merch being up probably has to do with both AEW and Punk still making money from it or not wanting to pull anything until all the legal issues are resolved. If they pulled it maybe he could sue later on claiming lost money from his merch being pulled or something? I dunno I'm no lawyer lol

Ruby Soho is getting surgery following a nose injury that occured during the Zero Hour Match where she teamed with Eddie Kingston against Sammy & Tay. She said her nose is broken in two places.

Yeah, that bump was both hellacious and a bit reckless. It sucks she broke her nose in two places but it could've easily have been her neck instead.

She teamed with Ortiz, just as a clarification.

And if Saraya is indeed getting back in the ring…keep her away from Tay…and Athena apparently.

Jericho goes into his health emergency, his diet, his transformation, his ab implants (or rather lack thereof), and constantly reinventing himself.

Didn't realize his health scare was that serious.

I wonder what other angles would show too.

Obviously not done on purpose or due to inexperience, but to me it also looks like Britt wasn't holding on either. She looks like she was supposed to be wrapped around Athenas back diagonally (almost like the set up for Sheamus' White Noise), and Athenas back when she went down would just land on Britts body, but Britt not holding on lead to her head just dangling behind Athenas back.

Re: AEW Off-Topic

So apparently after all that, she might not have even been cleared to compete.

I mean, all it takes is the right doctor to just be like "don't worry, they're good" and suddenly she's technically cleared, but that's not what should happen if she's not really supposed to compete.

And we know AEWs style in the ring, it is much riskier/dangerous than the WWE style and more injury prone.

Total Viewers: 1.04M
Key Demo: 0.35

Dynamite was up against a few season premiers on the networks, which probably contributed to the lower viewership number. Still, they continued their recent trend of not losing the audience towards the end of the show.

Will be interesting to see how they follow up Grand Slam.

Given she isn't medically cleared, the way she debuted was stupid. It overshadowed Toni's win, it killed Jamie by putting her right back with Britt. Imagine the pop in NY if Jamie had hit Britt instead and turned face. Then when she comes out, you have 3 of you Women just leave the ring scared of someone who can't even do anything.

Should have introduced her in a special guest ref role for a Britt/Toni match, or wait until next week or something.
