    Re: AEW Dynamite/Collision/Rampage Thread

    Just looked it up and...meh.

    I guess good for them at following through on something that they promoted. Other than that...I'm still not clear why this was even shown.

    I have no idea what any of this is referencing, but I'll imagine he's just a big fan of heel Sable. It's funnier that way.

      After they aired that, Tony and Taz looked like they were dying on the inside.

        Triple H on McAfee's Show last week: "When I see people coming out of trying to make it, and then they pick a job where, well, they work less, the schedule is lighter, then I’m like, ‘I’m glad I didn’t get you.’ If you’re not in it for the grind, at that point early in your career, you have no business being here,”

        Osprey said Triple H is where he is because he was grinding on the bosses daughter and is in no position to tell him what the Grind is. Same old jokes we've heard for over 2 decades and the irony of the fact that Edge, Moxley, Danielson, Dustin Rhodes, Big Show, Mark Henry and several other former WWE talent who work in AEW, all know exactly what Triple H meant.

          Which part of that is about Ospreay though? If that quote is all it was it sounds like Triple H is talking about people newer to wrestling, which Will wouldn't be.

          Unless he was just sticking up for newer wrestlers in the back? Screw it...I'm AEWed out. I don't even care about the context.

            I wouldn't even describe the modern WWE schedule as a grind, at least compared to like 10 years ago. But the AEW deal is definitely lighter.

            An AEW guy calling out the WWE in some way or another has been a thing since day 1. Throughout the ups and downs.

              On the bright side, this all should give Drew more ammo to cut promos on Punk and hopefully convince his *** to stay in WWE (if really hasn't re-signed).

                Yea Punk and Drew is the only people who benefit from this.

                Instead of turning it into a on screen fued (they had 3 chances) they decided to bury themselves .
                How can you even bring Perry back as a badass after that? And Tony fearing for his life because Punk yelled at him is…

                Can’t wait to hear “You think you are the guy but you are nothing but a fake tough guy who beat up scrawny kids in locker rooms.”

                  I sincerely hope AEW did over 850k in ratings. Or else, truly, what was the point of thus?


                  I don't want them to fail, but they need to get their **** together. Last night might have been the worst Dynamite they have ever produced.

                    I think it’s just ego. I mean after the Punk interview, there were promos about how much they love AEW lol. The Bucks could have acted like they were going to show the footage while making the excuse to why they lost, then FTR cuts them off and cut the promo they did…

                    But it was never about the story, they just wanted to expose Punk.

                    It’s sad if they wanted to show the footage for ratings considering you just spent all that money on 3 wrestlers who should be giving you those ratings.

                    5 years into the company, I wouldn’t have thought I would be waiting for Tony and Bucks to go away like they were Vince and Bruce. TK need to give up the booking to save this company.

                      Its just wild to me that a professional company that is supposed to rival and be the alternative to WWE is just turning into another TNA. Hell, for the past 2 years now I would rather watch Impact/TNA than AEW.


                      They are sending ****ing Adam "Edge" Copeland to do a rah-rah speech for them. They send out FTR to do the same. Where are the AEW guys? Why doesn't Tony keep investing in his home-grown talent? That's why a lot of us tuned into AEW in the first place.


                      I feel as if they have lost their way, and I don't know if Tony can find it again. I hope so, but ever since Punk's first injury with AEW, they have gone downhill.

                        Even if this garbage bumped up the ratings for this episode, I guarantee they're just gonna go down even further in the following weeks. I would be embarrassed to openly support AEW at this point, you could even see the looks of embarrassment on the faces of Tony Schiavone and Renee last night.

                        At the end of the day, Tony is literally playing out the dream scenario people like me had as a kid doing the Total Extreme Warfare simulators where you find a billionaire to fund your promotion so you can book it how you want. He caters to a small niche that care about match ratings rather than the majority of people who like compelling stories and characters.
