If Nyla and Vickie have as good of chemistry onscreen as they apparently do backstage I think it could be great. I wasn't watching when she was in WWE though, so maybe the gimmick isn't played out for me.

enigmahfc posted:one things I did like about this episode is it felt like it was setting up more story lines/matches than the average ep of Dynamite. They did a Coaches Corner with Arn after that match and he was seriously pissed at Cody. It feels like something big could happen against WARHORSE.

It feels like we were supposed to get Mox vs. MJF at DON but the pandemic derailed that, so now I wouldn't be surprised if they get back to it for All Out.

My dream booking right now is MJF taking the title off Mox, then Hangman taking it off MJF, and heel Omega coming after Hangman

Natural 20 posted:That poo poo's definitely weird. Might be something to do with the legality? IIRC, the text messages with Roberts didn't prove that he knew she was underage. That said, I have my doubts he'd have cared if she *did* tell him (and she very well may have, just not having screenshots that prove that), he should probably be fired anyway, and the whole industry needs an overhauling of how "talent" interacts with fans because it can and does lead to situations just like that.. but just from my respective interactions with the wrestling community and other communities I'm part of, it feels like the wrestling community is a few years away from that realization still.

Saul Goode posted:Finally got round to watching Mox v Omega and maybe I've just been desensitised by death matches but it really wasn't that bad was it? For something that created so much disgust online I was expecting way worse, I mean it felt like a 10x safer and less cringey match than most of the poo poo Foley did in WWE. There was a lot of small lacerations but ironically the worst (meaning most painful) part of that match was Kenny faceplanting on the wood after trying to do a Phoenix Splash.

Gallows and Anderson are streaming their podcast right now, apparently they were supposed to be in the Inner Circle instead of LAX and they were gonna beat the poo poo out of Kenny and The Bucks on the first Dynamite.

ChrisBTY posted:So they've signed with IMPACT. That's fine. I think we're finally at the talent saturation point in the men's division in AEW. I don't even know if they're any good or not because I have absolutely not been watching WWE for the last 4 years. Reading between the lines it sounds like they kinda pissed AEW off and probably did not get as good of a deal this year that they did last year.

I think there are some "moments" you can delay, like Wardlow and MJF splitting unless that's going to be tied to the Mox vs. MJF angle they're building towards for All Out, but yeah, they'd be better suited not trying to hold anything back for the sake of waiting for crowds. Because it's gonna be a long time.

Starks vs. Hobbs and Allin vs. Anthony should both be good. Rest should be okay, and it'll take a miracle for Shida to get a good match out of Rache.

The problem I think with FTR/Bucks is that they don't need the belts, but their feud would overshadow the belts anyway.

JUNGLE BOY posted:Yeah I get the sense that its not exactly bad blood with The Good Brothers. But signing them now would be bad business, both because of the message that sends that its okay to blow off AEW because we'll be your runner up choice if it doesn't work out, and because they had a clear storyline and the window for that story has closed. I think they should sign em after they do 2 years in Impact Prison They said there wasn't heat with the Bucks anymore but I wouldn't be surprised if Coward Tony was a little pissed.

Gumball Gumption posted:I think it was specifically that they didn't have heat with the Bucks but some people in the office were still mad. And yeah, I get that. Like, if I was the Bucks I think my opinion would be that I'd be friends with the guys but I wouldn't want to do business with them. I assume the more your relationship with The Good Brothers is business the more you're still kinda mad at them. My assumption is that they had a good amount of money earmarked in the talent budget for them (IIRC they said they told the Bucks they were coming for six months or somewhere along those lines) and AEW probably had to pass up some free agents because of that money being earmarked during that time.

Vince MechMahon posted:What's the story on the bad blood between the good brothers and the bucks? The Bucks were a little pissed at them for a while since they (the good brothers) basically said for six months that they were coming to AEW, and then WWE gave them an offer that they couldn't pass up. They seem cool with eachother now but there's evidently someone in a position of power in AEW that is still a little heated, so for that (and probably other reasons) AEW didn't give them an offer when they got released by WWE.

History Comes Inside! posted:Yeah they definitely wouldn’t have been able to do NJPW, no other AEW star has managed to work for NJPW at the same time. They wouldn't be able to do US appearances, but yeah, NJPW wasn't able (or willing) to pay them what they wanted to stay completely exclusive with them so they relented and were going to let them do AEW too. And both of those together were competitive with WWE's initial offer, then H upped the contract by 100-200k and they had to take it.

STAC Goat posted:I think Gallows and Anderson actually fit Jericho's humor more and would be very effective menacing enforces as well as comic jesters. And ideally that would have freed up Santana and Ortiz to be more than what they've been and maybe have a stronger presence in the tag division. I think I just like the multi-racial composition of the Inner Circle a whole lot, even if Jericho and Hager are.. problematic. It just feels like something you rarely see.

STAC Goat posted:Did they "play them"? I guess that's the heart of it. Like theres a scenario were Gallows and Anderson had a good faith negotiation that WWE just won out on. Or there's a scenario where Gallows and Anderson made false promises and acted in bad faith. But I haven't really read anything that clearly suggests it was the latter. Maybe I've missed it? It was basically more or less a verbal agreement, from the way they tell it, they told The Bucks they were coming to AEW for about six months.

STAC Goat posted:In and of itself that doesn't feel unethical to me. You shouldn't have to be beholden to a promise to a friend in a better career opportunity comes along. But there's a right and a wrong way to handle that and I don't know which one Anderson and Gallows did. Its a question of: From listening to them, it sounds like kinda C? They told the Bucks they were coming, they had an angle written for them to debut on the first episode of Dynamite (and basically close the show), they had a meeting with Tony Khan set up that they then had to cancel. If I was AEW I'd probably take that last thing the worst - it probably couldn't have hurt them to have the meeting with Tony and hear out their offer before signing with WWE, unless that contract with WWE would be pulled off the table if they didn't agree immediately.
