One time a guy stole some downhill skis out of my jeep and I was so mad I punched a mailbox. I'm against crime, and I'm not ashamed to admit it.

The content of his promo was very weird but Cody's delivery of the promo was electric. He's got that skill down.

Also, Reddit -HATED- the promo so I feel comfortable in my opinion that it was a well delivered but functionally strange thing



Also Wild Thing rules and I hope Onita shows up down the road

Who else bets that when the bubbly cannon showed up, everybody thought it was gonna be way bigger and it was a whole moment of people trying to rationalize money already spent and that it would look cool on TV anyway, no it's not ruined, c'mon guys, let's just see how it fires first

I bet that's what happened because that thing sucked lol

I didn't mind it, except that when you saw the truck for 2 seconds you knew how the segment was going to end, so it made the Pinnacle look extra stupid that they stood in range and waited for "the reveal" that the truck could shoot water.

Like there wasn't an disguise on the truck, it was obviously a vehicle designed to shoot water, and yet the Pinnacle were surprised.

As a non-American I found the content a bit cringe, but the last 2 minutes the actual emotion Cody had and the belief he had made it a good promo.

I mean America is still a dumpster fire, but that man sure loves that dumpster fire!

If anyone is planning on getting dynamite tickets for Dallas early access presale was today. I got two tickets but didn't see how fast they were going. Seems like if you went to the last show the venue gave priority access which is neat.

The thing with Miro/Archer is that I don't see where Archer goes if he loses a title shot at DoN, which he likely will because it would be very hotshotty otherwise. They could put him in AEW title contention I suppose, but Omega's probably still going to try to collect more belts before he loses that, and then Archer would just be the guy who loses to champions.

When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.
I laughed and laughed at the Shawn Michaels/Flair parody even though it is one of my favorite things in wrestling ever.

This is true - Archer continues to just kinda be aimless and lose his most important matches. If he lost another one, his whole "everybody dies, I'm gonna murder everyone on the roster, everyone is afraid of me" stuff is not going to hold much water.

Archer needs to destroy someone and regain his legitimacy as Miro-level invincible.

I sort of feel like a good general rule is that after someone either takes a horrendous beating like Darby did or gets chucked off a cage like Jericho was... you leave them off the next taping. Just a couple of weeks where it becomes normal for them to not be there, just to sell how battered they can get.

I think it's fine with Jericho since so many people made a big deal about the crash pad. You show him with his arm all messed up and maybe people go "oh, he is hurt." Or at least sell it a little bit that way since you can't sell it as completely devastating.

The Murderhawk rules and him vs Miro will also rule.

That being said, I'm not exactly sure about having him lose another feud. Let him kill Scorpio and Ethan Page with Darby and then have him go over Jungle Boy or something. He needs a big win.

I've been involved in a number of cults, both as a leader and a follower.

You have more fun as a follower. But you make more money as a leader.

Yeah, they need to keep Archer away from title scenes until they’re ready to give him one. I think him and Brian Cage are both at risk of becoming guys like Kane or Big Show where they’re only positioned as a beast to overcome without ever really gaining their own dominance to justify it.

If the tnt title is still a 20 min match, do a time limit draw then and then have miro/archer both be held back from each other cause they still wanna keep fighting

There's nothing weirder on earth than a "USA vs UK" promo where Cody has to spend half of it pointing out he's not actually mad at foreigners or people from other countries or anyone who gets a green card to work in AEW or... really just anyone but Anthony Ogogo. So by the end you're like "then why are you *being* like this Cody"

Will confirm wild thing absolutely kills the zoomers, they died and that's when the ratings took a dive brother.

yeah, that's what I thought. a bit strange to go full on with that but eh.

"Wild Thing" coming in was completely unexpected and awesome, but also glad they got Nagata's NJPW theme (without any Pirates of the Caribbean stuff on it). and lol JR saying Nagata trained Minoru Suzuki too.

Archer just came out at the end, did they book him as miros first defense yet? I could get behind the draw after Miro had had a couple of monstrous defenses

It's hard to have Miro be Miro and to also have Archer be Miro. There's a monster hierarchy and Archer is #2 on it. Maybe #3 after Cage. Better to just have the feud, have the awesome match and fine, Archer ate the pin again. Not everybody can have belt. Not everybody can win every match. The only shame of course is that yeah, Archer's either wrestling jobbers or the company's top guys and he isn't quite that. It would be nice if he could get a Goldilocks zone feud at some point. Maybe against Cage.
