Ospreay vs. Omega. That's the main event. Book it.

Will OC still be the International Champion? I could see that title changing hands at the show, whoever it is. A Drew Galloway debut where he wins it would be insanely fun.

My guess is main event Omega vs. Osprey with sub-main of Bryan vs. ZSJ 2 with match one at Forbidden Door. All Out is MJF vs. Punk if he's coming back or MJF vs. Cole if not and they'll be involved in some big tag match at All In to add to the build.

https://twitter.com/allan_cheapshot/status/1644236332141621248 Saw this post on Twitter today and think it's an interesting thing to keep in mind. UK audiences have certainly had plenty of opportunities to see Ospreay already, and more importantly, Ospreay's greatest appeal is to an audience that AEW probably already has in the bag. Not saying you don't put him on the card in a prominent spot anyway, but you probably shouldn't count on him being a big needle-mover. I would maybe be a little hesitant to run an Omega-Ospreay rematch when you could probably use Kenny to make an even bigger match

And instead of building around the guy that was doing poo poo that no-one was doing in wrestling, they opted to focus on WWE style authority figure crap with Wade Barrett and Grado. And Grado was an over act, sure, but it was just such a bizarre decision to turn the show into a cheap looking studio version of WWE to me when the talent was there to do something much more modern

And all things being made equal, I would be perfectly fine with not smearing Billy Blackball all over AEW's biggest show ever at all.

it won't put more people in the building to select the correct main event even if it will make the show less smooth. but ospreay will bring in some people so definitely put him against someone huge. first, sixth, or last. and that the bottom line the exception is if the main event was just a regular tv match but that's a different and much more serious infraction. bottom line.

I don't know why, but I've never been able to fantasy book AEW. Any time I try, Tony either speeds up or slows down the stories. With that being said, I firmly expect MJF to defend the AEW World Championship against Matt Cross.

Bank holiday doesn't meant everyone is off. I'm at work at 8.50 the next morning in Scotland.forkboy84 posted:Hmmm.

That's what my group are doing to get back. It was about £70 per person return when I booked the other day.

(part of that was me being an idiot and trying to change the flight time after i'd booked, to be fair.)

I've double checked names on the booking for spelling (my bf's name is spelt weird and he always goes by a short), made sure not to add any bags, avoided paying to pick seats (it's an hour and a half, we can be big boys and girls and not sit together if need be). Anything else I should be watching out for?

PAC and Hayter are much bigger draws for me than Ospreay, statement checks out. It would be cool to see him I suppose but it doesn't move the needle at all. At this point I'm certain brawl out is a work so gimme CM Punk, let's do it

Ospreay in himself isn't going to draw 80000 but I think what matters is it being Ospreay being against a big AEW name. Like yeah we've seen him fight British guys a bunch but put him against someone we've not seen before and that's a huge difference

I suppose the big issue is finding names that are household stars in the UK and get them into a match that people would pay to see. I say get the Mitchell Brothers to face Ishii.
