And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

Gunner Miller is making his AEW debut.

Looks like MJF isn't going to like not being ringside for the Spears/Rhodes match.

I just hope they don't burn that turn on this match. The start of something yes, but I can't see what Spears could offer to MJF just yet.

That was the best contract signing segment that I've seen in years.

I loved how they (at least started) the contract signing portion juxtaposing Spears with Tully looking all classy, riding in a limo, etc. while Cody was working out. Grandson of a plumber.

I love that Britt maintains the kayfabe of this every time she crosses paths with the Bucks on BTE, well past the point where such continuity matters

I desperately need these road to vids to be longer! they're so good.

mjf shouldn't turn on cody at all out. they should be buds for a long while with maybe cracks starting to sprinkle and then the eventual turn. maybe you can even start a seed with cody bringing someone else to be his ringside +1 instead of mjf.

I also liked him being slightly more annoying by just having some gum sitting in the side of his mouth throughout the whole segment.

Yeah, it's hard for me to explain why it works so well, but it's so endearing that MJF's consistently a dick to everyone but him, and I want it to continue at least for some TV

I like the subtle dig at WWE tropes by the lawyer saying that she rarely sees a contract signed in person, and that everything is done digitally.

The Revival are being pushed in order to be conned into signing their pact with Lucifer anew.

It would be gloriously WWE of them to take their hottest natural heel and try to pass him off as the 4th place face for a heel turn in someone else's storyline.

Cody has been a heel against everyone but the Young Bucks and now Shawn Spears.

edit: I mean this in the sense that MJeff's alignment with him is only getting weird now that Cody isn't the heel, but continuity states that MJeff needs to be pals with Cody until something happens.

Also yeah the lawyer completely no-selling the contract signing also makes it seem so much weirder and funnier.

Guys MJF isn't Cody's best friend. MJF is a brown-noser who SAYS he's Cody's best friend because he thinks it will give him influence.

When it doesn't, then boom, headshot, Spears and MJF stand tall.
