Come to think of it it's been a while since we had a proper hoss-off in AEW so I'd be more than OK with the beefiest boys throwing down.

That would be an outstanding match. Brian Cage is so good in the ring. Miro v Cage would be awesome, I assume.

Last great hoss off I remember was Wardlow vs. Hager, which was a really good match that I think wasn't rated high enough by most. Brodie and Dustin, also was incredible and maybe my favorite Dynamite Match ever from a pure working stand point.

Wardlow/Hager was good but Wardlow had to carry the match. BCage/Miro will be loving incredible because they can both go and neither of them are merely slabs of beef in-ring.

Cody stinks

Like I said Penta should be honored that he got to take part in the QT angle since QT is basically better than Penta in every way. Doesn't take days off, puts in the work.

I hope Penta told Alex Abrahantes to say "Penta says 'Thank you for elevating me into a feud with the world champion and showing me the value of doing the work, Cody, I owe everything to you.'"

personally i think it's extremely funny and fitting that Penta got rolled up while he was taunt spamming after he kicked out of every finisher Cody Rhodes has ever used throughout his career

Vince MechMahon

Penta since day one has been a guy who's weakness is he gets too cocky, and Cody's whole thing has been being able to see opportunities when his opponent isn't 100% in the game. The ending of that match was fine and anyone saying it was a stolen win or burying Penta is a lunatic with terminal WWE brain.

Penta was trying to get his finisher while he had low health.


He should have tossed cody out of the ring first.

I'm not making a fucking QCS thread for this but seriously can we take a harder stance on Kiwifarms freaks like this guy, Jesus Christ seriously, you used to be better at knocking these creeps down. I guess ADTRW mods aren't responsible like GBS mods are.
This isn't even the first time in AEW that Penta has gotten flash-pinned because he's loving around and spam taunting.

i went to one of these wrestling shows and it was... honestly? frickin boring. i wanna see ricky! i want to see his gold chains and respect for the ftw lifestyle
cody stinks and is the secret top heel of aew

seriously just turn him heel already i know he's the face of everything and he wants to be super cody who returns from an injury to valiantly lose but like

the dude is incapable of talking without sounding like a total dickhead 95% of the time.

you were born on third base your dad is one of the most famous professional wrestlers *ever* and your brother is still significantly more of a household name. cody's "face" character fuckin falls flat every single time to me bc its this diametrically opposed "do the work you don't have excuses"/"my family is VERY FAMOUS and VERY IMPORTANT and LINEAGE" poo poo that doesnt jive at all unless you're way into atlas shrugged or whatever.

i like when wrestlers have personality traits that manifest as strengths and weaknesses. cody's a hothead who makes mistakes when he gets pissed off. meanwhile, if penta goes more than five minutes without doing his taunt he will explode like the bus from speed

The rollup would have been fine if it didn't use the arm that had just been hit with the armbreaker, that's all. It's not even him no-selling a previously devastating finisher it was him no-selling the injury that had been a big part of the story of the match and the build up to the match. Penta getting hoisted by his own petard while he was busy been cool and stylish is fine, but it happened with bad storytelling, which sucked because the rest of the match was really good.

I don't think that a guy with a busted arm managing to fight through the pain for a few seconds really counts as no-selling.

Nonsense. I have not yet begun to defile myself.

It did lead to that fun run where he kept squashing indie dudes while making snide comments about how they weren't in his league, then he tried it on Brodie and was godstomped for it

You have a lot of pent up rage about Cody Rhodes a guy who left WWE and legitimately put in all of the hard work to make himself a star. I have no idea why you are so mad at Cody you have to convince yourself of a lot of untrue stuff, but I feel bad for you. You are missing out on a great wrestler.

We have no problem calling WWE out when they pull the "look they'll be over no matter what so it's fine for them to eat dumb losses" card and it shouldn't be any harder to call it out when AEW does it.
