That Punk Promo did seem a bit meandering.

I assume he was doing rah-rah bullshit partially to get easy pops, partially to give some other folks shine but primarily to lay the tracks for Taz going "enough with the rah-rah bullshit." Worked well for me, although I do hope this is the end of the rah-rah bullshit from Punk for a while

CM Punk has not done a single 'you people' promo since entering AEW

before he came in I said I didn't care if he came in because we didn't need the same you people promos over and over

I've been really enjoying his work and I'm man enough to admit I was wrong

Man, I must really just be huffing the fumes. I'm not sure what people want out of a weekly wrestling television show if this one was 'uncommonly weak' or 'so-so'. I get that it takes all kinds, I'm just usually more in line with the rest here.

My standards are way too high because I was basically out of the wrestling watching business entirely and then I watched All Out and it was like a recovered addict mainlined heroin out of nowhere

So this is the first full episode of Dynamite I've actually watched. It was ok. Hobbs killing Dante was good but the rest of the matches were a bit sloppy, and Mox/Suzuki should not be 9 minutes with half of that as Picture-in-Picture.

The only thing I was disappointed with was that Mox and Suzuki didn't get more time, beyond that I enjoyed the show :)

I appreciated most of the women in the battle royal getting to do a Pulp Fiction promo on where they are going forward. AEW could do with more of those

Yeah, if there's one thing I'd love to see a current company steal from ECW (and do well) it'd be that style of multi-promo thing. Get Miserlou and go all the way, Tony!

The Punk promo was a bunch of time wasted on running down the card for no reason and a bunch of cheap pops Punk frankly doesn't need. Pretty much every non-wrestling segment lasted longer than it needed to and it resulted in the main just being an afterthought time-wise and that sucked for me, someone who was looking for it.

I don't really care that the show was promo heavy but they just used their time like poo poo, imo, which is nothing new.

The show was good, but it could have been better, but I would watch episodes of this level of quality for infinity before I gave the WWE another chance.


I hope that places the quality in its proper perspective.

They definitely need to time their segments better

i love cm punk, but it really feels like he's given a lot more time for his promo segments than he needs and kind of goes too much with just talking to the crowd and then there's just a bunch of dead time of him just in the ring or walking to the back after high fiving everyone. Tonight when they kept talking about Hobbs vs Dante is next it felt like they were trying to throw to a commercial to set up the next segment since Punk's promo was done but never actually did. Just very bad timing stuff throwing their shows off sometimes.

I know AEW isnt a promotion thats all "height is important" but there's something funny about Bryan being talked up as this small underdog dude and then World Champion Kenny Omega and Bryan were nose to nose.

Dan Lambert suckssssss. I've come around on Cody, Spears, and even Honk. I don't think it's possible for me to do the same for Lambert - I had no idea who he was before he came into AEW, his Boomer rants are too close to what I hear every day in public, and he's saying that all of AEW needs to be afraid of Scorpio Sky. I wish he'd go away already.

He's a dutch oven char. He keeps building heat without releasing it. He needed an rear end whooping or to get owned by someone on the mic 4 weeks ago.

He got his rear end kicked on his first week, now he's building up the heat before the Men of the Year get humiliated by Archer and Suzuki and everyone gets to hear the song they whined about tonight.

this glorious monument

This is one of the few Dynamites I felt had too much talking. A lot of that would have been mitigated by shrinking the MJF segment. It was the cheapest of heat, bordered on cringe, and was used to plug a match with Brian Pillman Jr, a feat which should take no more than 3 minutes tops.
