AEW Dynamite/Collision Thread

Re: AEW Dynamite/Collision/Rampage Thread

The crowd tonight sucks....... almost no reaction for the latest AEW roster member. Also, based off tonight I really hope Omega gets healthy because hot damn will AEW be cooking once he is healthy.

I assume you mean Okada? Because crowd was hot for Ospreay/Fletcher which was one hell of a match. Okada being with the Young Bucks as the new Elite was something I wasn't expecting. Real good show overall.

Even without Omega, the roster is stacked. Some of the lower tier talent need to go to ROH/Rampage because there's too much talent for it to be wasting away.

Plus, PAC is coming back which is great because he's damn good too and they never seem to have any long term plans for Miro who's also good.

Suffers in comparison to last night, plus it's a small market for Okada's debut. I also wonder what effect the downturn of New Japan has had on the excitement for him. We're a long way from the heights of 2017-2019 for Okada. I would love to be excited for AEW the way I was that first 6 months too.

Re: AEW Dynamite/Collision/Rampage Thread

The crowd was excited for Swerve.

Wardlow vs Joe next week. Given we have a PPV next month, I hope Joe retains and Swerve beats him at the PPV.

And I wonder how they're gonna build the big moment next week. Just go all CM Punk and kick off the show with the moment fans will be going crazy for/chanting all night?

Can't wait for "Cope vs Cage" in 2 weeks. I'm still waiting for the right moment to buy tickets. They haven't released anything on the hard cam side yet, hoping they do closer to the date and for a real nice steal price (last year I got front row for $50!)

Can't wait for everyone to declare Mercedes as the new savior of AEW Women's Division only for her to fall victim to how TK books the Women. Like seriously.. until Tony hires writers, cuts down the men matches to make room for another Women's match or segment, nothing will change.

She'll be alright, but it'll get old fast when she faces Toni, Saraya, Britt, Julia, Athena and others in such a short span just to bill half of them as dream matches on Dynamite.

Sasha.....I mean Mercedes starting things off with the same long winded promo.....

I hope she either reverts back to her original NXT gimmick or finds some character progression.

Her entrance music is terrible.

With the new overally colorful logo and entrance ramp I'm about to start calling it AEW Dynamite 3.0. [emoji1]

Same old hype debut promo we see from everyone. Now let's see what happens and if it ends up the same old TK booking or not. Just very odd to have Willow vs Rhio be the main event and not save her debut for the end of the show and have her confront Willow to close the show.

Joe can't even main event Dynamite as World Champion.

Re: AEW Dynamite/Collision/Rampage Thread

Am I crazy or has Okada gotten smaller? It's been a while since I watched any of his NJPW stuff - probably 4 or so years - so maybe I'm misremembering how muscular he is?

Yeah, it felt like the same old 'Game Changer' debut and promo we've seen time and time again.

Hopefully Tony and the soap opera writer he hired have some good ideas cooked up for Mercedes. I don't think she should be challenging for the main title off the bat (especially with the ranking system around), yet she needs a big feud/storyline off the jump.

Feels like her and Willow are going to have a feud first to build off their match from NJPW. That's a good starter feud for her as she works her way up through the ranking system. I can see by the time we get to All Out, she will be competing for the the title or at least the TBS Champion.

No more Bang Bang Scissor Gang... good Jay White is so much better as a heel. I guess Darby is being written off so he can climb Mt. Everest next month?

Re: AEW Dynamite/Collision/Rampage Thread

I'm guessing that's Willow's makeup all over her wrist and on Riho's butt.

Why does Mercedes' music include the 'CEO' chanting in it?

Re: AEW Dynamite/Collision/Rampage Thread

One show and I'm officially done with Mercedes' theme song. It's so annoying and gets old... real quick. I mean real quick. I understand the tease of Mercedes and Willow but why didn't Statlander who is teaming with Willow not come out first?

Maybe a little, but he mostly looks the same. He's never been ripped.
