Hangman promo was good poo poo and it made me care a little bit about that match.

Didn't feel the Spears Fave Five promo and JR seemed rambly but it was serviceable.

Please Jesus replace Marvez with Tony.

Also worth noting with the TV rumors spreading: the video was uploaded at 8 Eastern on a Wednesday night

Is it still a rumor? It has to be Wednesday to not get routinely pre-empted by NBA games.

Almost certainly. I feel like people are still hung up on the "Tuesday Night Dynamite" trademark which can easily get changed if they need to.

In his FftF post-show presser, Tony said it was “no secret the show would be on Tuesday or Wednesday,” so given the NBA exists, it’s Wednesday.

They trademarked Wednesday Night Dynamite right before the upfronts.

Sometime 2020, I believe July is when she signed the TNA deal

So a year unless a partnership is established before then

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

AEW really is Jim Crockett 2, we just need a Flair... or just Jericho who is the modern Flair.

Real talk, I like Hangman. I agree with a lot of the recent feedback on the dude that he was feeling generic and character work was a little off. It’s like you’re supposed to care but you weren’t shown why you should care.

That Road to All Out episode may have single-handedly made me care. If he keeps up that kind of intensity, then he really is gonna kick rear end at the top of the card.

That promo was sick. gently caress yes.

I can't wait for PAC to help Jericho beat Hangman at All Out, bringing us back to the original matchup that we were waiting for at DoN.

turn it all around

I didn't expect that to be the manager, but gently caress yeah am I into it. Also, that Page promo did more to sell me on his match than the last 2 shows did.

The opening montage was nice, too. It felt more like a real sport than a WWE highlight reel does. Not sure if it's because of the camera angles and unique shots or that it wasn't using a Saliva song or something, but it felt different.

AEW is good and alive, change the thread title!

Hangman promo was good. I think with more like that he'll get there and build a persona around stuff like that. hopefully the Jericho match will unlock his big potential. Never dreamed Tye Dillinger would be such a great heel but it comes so naturally to him here that it makes me think this is really what he should have gone for all along.
