AEW Dynamite/Collision Thread

Re: AEW Dynamite Thread

Wow.... booking Keith Lee like he was booked in NXT wasn't that hard now was it? You have to have the worst creative team in history of wrestling to not know what to do with a talent like him.

Or he gets COVID, that kills his initial push, you try to re-package him (whether that was the right or wrong decision doesn't matter) after he's off tv (fighting for his life) for 5 months, he moves like he's stuck in molasses upon his return, his cardio has clearly been negatively effected by COVID, he never buys into the re - packaging and then they decide to let him go.

Now, Karrion Kross just needed to be pushed and showcased like on NXT, but Keith Lee's circumstances (and alleged backstage complaining/"issues") were much, much different.

I appreciate and like the "Limitless" shtick/gimmick, yet I also think he needs to be willing to move beyond it and cut better promos and be menacing in the ring.

Plus, this is only night one so I think we need to wait sometime before we call his run in AEW a success. Will Tony Khan continue to give him short matches or will he start doing his regular 20 minute television affairs? Is Keith Lee going to look like his pre - COVID self or will he need to do a more "toned down" style?

Can Keith Lee show any range or is the Limitless stuff his only go - to? Will he cut any decent promos or just be silent while coming to the ring and kicking ***?

All the same issues exist with him and I'm hopeful he can prove the doubters and his former employer wrong.

I need to go back and watch but I'm feeling like that tag team match was the best one I've seen in recent memory.

Re: AEW Dynamite Thread

I'm sure those guys got together and came up with all of it. The spot where Mox and Punk were staggering to their feet standing back to back was straight out of 1980s movie or something. And of course the doomsday device just for the hell of it. Match had all of their personalities in it.

Re: AEW Dynamite Thread

AEW's storytelling is heads and shoulders above WWE, it feels like there is a long term plan, not random stuff and changes last minute type of deal. I don't even think AEW has an actual creative team and the natural stories they tell from start to finish makes everything must see TV.

Obviously MJF is going to be the next AEW Champion, no better person to take the title off Hangman than him. I wouldn't be surprised if it happens at Double or Nothing but given how AEW actually let's their champions have long reigns it may not happen that soon. The teasing and build up of a Wardlow/MJF split is exactly how Omos/Styles breakup should have happened. The pop Wardlow is going to get when he finally turns is going to be so good.

Re: AEW Dynamite Thread

What's funny is I never even thought of MJF as the next champ, because I like his constant heel whining. But I can see it. Hangman beats Adam Cole and he goes to the ReDragon/Elite split and the insufferable MJF beats a turned Wardlow with help, and has nowhere else but Hangman to go.

I want Punk to join the Danielson faction when Mox turns him down. Would be a great team until the inevitable split.

Well when your audience is exactly the same 16-35 year old neck beared boys. Then no it’s not that hard.

Re: AEW Dynamite Thread

Man, I was hoping we'd get AEW's version of a Hell in a Cell match and not another dog collar match.

What is this their third dog collar match and they've already given one away on tv?

My bad, it's only the second in AEW history so I must be confusing it with a prior strap match.

Punk and MJF in a dog-collar match at Revolution?

I’m game.

They’ve only had one…Cody and Brodie Lee.

Re: AEW Dynamite Thread

Man, matches like this are why Danielson is the best in the world.

Just an epic grappler and still gives his opponent enough to look good.

Re: AEW Dynamite Thread

Danielson is the best thing on AEW television by a longshot.

Just build the show(s) around this dude (with his creative input) and figure the rest out as you go.
