It's like goldy or bronzy, but made of iron.


Miro making Charles wrestle matches using only a Young Lion moveset would have been a pretty good bit.

Look at these fools not knowing the Chuck Taylor deep lore. Taylor would use a single leg boston crab, the move with which he made Bryan Danielson tap out with.

Well of course, the bit works best if Chuck absolutely DOMINATES with Young Lion moves.

Well, it was billed as ending at the wedding and the only potential blowoff is "Chuck and/or OC beat people up and probably destroy a cake". I just wish they had more time to have fun with it and do stupid stuff on the show.

I'm also griping less about whatever the payoff is and more about how I wish it'd been given more time to build and do goofy poo poo with Chuck & Miro.

MassRafTer posted:

I've really enjoyed the butler stuff it's funny and people seem to like it? If you keep it going too long Chuck just seems like a chump. Given there is some chance that the wedding gets interrupted or ruined and Kip and Penelope are not legally married live on air the storyline could continue. If there is no marriage, he's gotta still be the Butler.

I don't *not* like it, it just feels like underdone with how silly it could be with the people involved. I guess I was feeling disappointed in how quickly it was going to be done more than anything, but –

Pylons posted:

Miro might've given away the angle on his twitch, he said Charles is still his butler after the wedding.

Didn't realize this! If it's extending beyond the wedding, then my argument will likely be moot. I feel like it was definitely promoted on TV as "butler until the wedding" at first, though, right?

The 8 man tag on Dynamite last week was the most edited match in AEW history because the Good Brothers couldn’t stop making jackoff motions with their hands

https://wrestlingnews.co/aew-news/aew-made-several-edits-to-dynamite-match-last-week-and-it-wasnt-due-to-botched-moves/

quote:

“That match last week on Dynamite with the Young Bucks and Doc Gallows and Karl Anderson against the Dark Order. That was the most edited match in the history of AEW, not because they botched moves, but because Gallows and Anderson kept doing like jacking off stuff and pot stuff and things like that. They had to edit all those references off television. That was a little secret of last Wednesday’s show.”

Yeah, there was a clip on BTE of The Good Brothers and the Young Bucks having the dark order ready to lift into a power bomb position. Gallows then takes a hit from an invisible joint, passes to Anderson, who passes to the bucks who refuse. Gallows then takes like 5 more puffs and puts it out on Evil Uno's back

chuck has been a butler for 2 weeks. like 15 minutes of tv time or something like that. unless you're counting DARK, which makes it like 20 or 30? also: i like it, and therefore my experience is the counter argument.

I like the butler stuff. I'm happy that they tweaked it because Im one of the many who don't know what a young boy is. My one qualm is that it's put Kip and Penelope in the shade, and it's their wedding!

I'm most interested in the Tag Team Battle Royale. I think they're doing Sammy vs. MJF at Revolution so I don't really see either of those teams winning (Or Santana and Ortiz, unless they just decide that this is where the Inner Circle completely implodes).

This is a wild response. I made poo poo up? They said the poo poo on TV. Get outta here.

I mean it's really not hard to confirm they said, on TV, that it lasted until the wedding:https://www.cagesideseats.com/aew/2021/1/13/22230074/aew-dynamite-jan-13-2021-new-years-smash-results-miro-chuck-taylor-butler-young-boy

Right now I think Bucks win it and challenge the Good Brothers. On NO SURRENDER, Private Party wins the belts off of Good Brothers. Revolution has the Good Brothers win the belt due to Matt Hardy interference. Matt's main goal here is that PP are champs on a third party so he makes even more money. PP get a decently long run of a few months while the Good Brothers' run is cut short by... idk, let's say Dark Order at the next PPV.
Matt throughout this is also trying to get Hangman to join his faction, says that the bucks didn't deserve those belts.

I feel like the Bucks winning and challenging the Good Brothers is too obvious, but they've made the obvious play work before, so who knows.

Yeah, Private Party is the horse I'm backing. I don't think they'll rush to the Good Brothers match this fast and PP getting a title shot cements the importance of their heel turn and will make for a really interesting change in dynamic from their previous matches

Yeah, but I'm not honestly sure who wants Bucks vs. Good Brothers at Revolution. It'll probably be good, because the Bucks can make any match at least good, but there are better matchups I'd rather see.

Aren't Private Party #1 contenders for the Impact tags, too?

Would be weird to have title shots at both belts, especially since Kenny is theoretically doing the belt collector gimmick.

I feel like you're just trying to make an argument when there isn't one, and you seem way more worked up about any of this than I am. I'm bummed that a storyline with people I like didn't get to be longer (but it might actually get to be longer), because the people I like are fun to watch and could do some good, dumb stuff with the story.

I didn't know I had to preface an opinion like talking about potential blowoff for a feud by saying that it was my opinion only and wasn't announced on TV as being the blowoff.

People have opinions. People see things differently and most of the time, they get to bullshit around and talk about that stuff without having someone like you come in and tell them they're making poo poo up for having an opinion. Other people are allowed to have opinions and thoughts on something without it meaning that they're the gospel truth or that you have to believe them.

Anyway.

Anyone think there'll be any surprise teams in the battle royal, or just the known ones? Not sure if it'd make sense to do a big surprise since I think it's just a standard battle royal and not a staggered entry one, but could be kind of fun to see a good team from Impact pop up.

OTOH, my stupid dream is for the Bucks to win and instead of challenging The Good Brothers they challenge The Golden Lovers.
