So is Cody gonna heel it up against Brodie Lee? The story feels a bit muddled here

Rarity posted:

Cody was never not a face

Cody was more of a heel than Scorpio Sky, but is going to be less of heel than Mr. Brodie Lee of #JoinDarkOrder. If Mr. Brodie does not win the belt after Cody spent weeks and weeks on TV getting put through the wringer, whoever challenges him after his match with Mr. Brodie Lee will be (maybe Colt Cabana if they want to keep the Cult Cabana moves relevant)

Of course performers drinking got him fired from WWE so there's kind of a novel little wrinkle there.

Also Arn Anderson's own alcoholism was used as a point of mockery on TNT by a certain giant killer way back when.

Counterpoint: Moxley should beat the poo poo out of MJF every week, beat the poo poo out of him at All Out and then pin him clean.

Yeah, there are two ways to do it, and MJF already had a "you are not allowed to touch me before the PPV" feud this year so having Maxwell get loving owned with increasingly wild defenses is the Right Call.

tbh if njpw is just never gonna be in the cards i kinda wish they'd form something with dragongate, although them using CIMA probably made things weird politically

Who cares about dragongate, officially announce the alliance with CyberAgent's stable of wrestling companies!

Ahem, Mox/Omega I, as I believe you will find he has wrestled no sanctioned wrestling matches against Kenny Omega in All Elite Wrestling.

They're about to play Fall Guys with Uno, Colt and Dakota Kai

Colt's never played before

Colt bought a controller in Japan that no one has ever heard of.

The Quest to get Colt Cabana past round one is truly a project worthy of the Dark Order's newest member Jawny.

Did... did he walk through a time portal and buy a controller made in 1998?

He bought it in a "Don Quijote in Japan" in order to play "Toejam and Earl after I subscribed to the gofundme thing."

People were saying before this tourney that she was like, terrible. She seems pretty good, could use some training but she has a different style and a great look.

it is, of course, as if she was in a company that exclusively books people to their weaknesses as a policy.

The crowd didn't get what Cody wanted the match to be, Cody wanted it to come across like a victory lap because "obviously Cody is going to beat MJF" instead Downstait was trash and Cody's neck tattoo seemed loving weird as hell.

Brodie just feels like the wrong guy. You want a big upset even if Cody doesn't turn heel and Brodie comes in too strong. I won't be mad if he wins it or anything but it feels like a waste of the run to me.

Brodie could be a big challenge to set up the short-rest title defense, like Cody is loving murdered by Mr. Brodie but gets him in some pinning hold and bam, heel/young guy shooting his shot comes out to challenge Cody next week (with only until Wednesday [late show] or Thursday to prepare).

so, should there be a new thread for the All Out replay, or is this going to end up being disjointed and maybe not even watched?

I'd love a thread if I end up watching and worst case scenario no one posts in it and it falls down into the forever. I don't think it needs to be particularly effort-heavy.

uh.

Tangentially related, do you think that sometime in 2022 when crowds are back (I know, I know, I'm being crazy optimistic) that they'll move the hard camera back or is facing the ramp the new normal?

I would assume it would be based around how it looks, AEW doesn't have problems adapting for different venues and making things look unique.
