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.

Impact doesn't really have any good teams right now, unfortunately. Sabin and Storm could show up but.. eh.

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.

If it's the start of a bigger BC vs Elite story I'm fine with it

I wonder how many fun plans had to go out the window with MCMG being unable to do stuff with Shelley being out. Any team in AEW vs MCMG would be pretty great.

a gbs thread convinced me to give AEW a shot having not watched any wrestling since I was like, 11.

Started with the 1/20 episode and just watched the 1/27 episode. I went apeshit when Silver started zooming around outside the ring in the last match. very excited to watch tomorrow live :tipshat:

Hell yea welcome, the live threads are a lot of fun. If you have the opportunity, going back to watch a few of the best matches in AEW's young history is a really fun time. I recommend...

Jon Moxley Vs Kenny Omega from Full Gear 2019
Brodie Lee Vs. Dustin Rhodes from Dynamite 9/9/2020
Cody Rhodes Vs. Dustin Rhodes from Double or Nothing 2019
Nyla Rose Vs. Riho from Dynamite 12/2/2020
Best Friends Vs. Proud and Powerful from Dynamite 9/16/2020

Welcome to the thread, and glad you like the show. Silver is awesome, just a crazy little ball of energy, and he's grown so much this year.

Let us know if you want any match suggestions. People will probably give them to you anyway :)

I started really cheering for Sammy Guevara in that all Inner Circle match.

There are definitely others I liked. Jungle Boy's whole stable rules. John Silver obviously.

John Silver being a breakout star is wild, I remember being disappointed that him and Reynolds started out doing job duty and thinking that's all they'd do

Yeah, Arn can be a lot to take if you don't know his history. AEW are keen on having older wrestlers around who represent the legacy of the business, hence you're got Arn Anderson and Tully Blanchard (who were in the Four Horsemen with Ric Flair back in the 80s) and Jake Roberts. I can see why without the history Arn might just seem like a weird grandpa.

I figured as much from the context. Just a little joke, without the history it was really the only bit I got bored with. Possibly because I hate looking at Cody Rhodes's face.
