I boosted so hard
I've boosted so hard I think I need to lay back and have a cigarette.
Is the card really just 3 matches? I could easily watch blood and guts for 60 minutes, and MJF/Cole will be fun, but how long could this Hook/JB match be?!
Tazz is going to have to stretch it out. No 'digressing' allowed.
In all seriousness, probably a squash or promo? I'm hoping for some kinda BCG content.
Probably. Blood and Guts will probably be an hour.
Hahahahahah, why would you trust a Bastard
JESUS Pac
So glad he's back. But DAMN.
Where do you even get a bed of nails now that Bed Bath and Beyond is out of business?!?
The Skymall catalog of course.
Hammer Schlemmer?
HERE WE FUCKING GO!!
RIGHT INTO COMMERCIALS!
Damnit lol.
See what you did
If only I had FITE
I'm predicting 5 PiP with at least 1 full screen ad in 2 of them.
Yoooooo, Don pulling his man out.
Soo the BCC are dumbasses that trusted people
I guess Mox has decided Kenny needs to die
At the end of the MJF/Cole match my heart will go two ways.
My heart will go on
"Mox is bleeding' 'Must be a day that ends in Y I guess'
Claudio and Pac only teaming because of pure hatred for a common enemy is hilarious.
Only thing missing is Eddie lol
It's a mashup, it's a mashup! OMG, I'm going to be sad when they break up but I'm going to love the matches.
At this point I hope their friendship never ends. At this point I hope they end up buried beside each other, after a long and fruitful friendship that spans decades.
If Max wasn't champ, I could completely believe them having an extended tag run, they are so good together
This crowd is bloodthirsty lol
Mjf & Cole should not be as entertaining as it is
I really hope this lasts a bit longer. It's so much fun. The skit, the dance, now the match, it's just damn great.
I was just commenting to my wife that this so shouldn't work but it's so good. And I hated MJF before.
That reaction to the remix of their themes. Who knew MJF and Adam Cole would be the run of this era...
Not I, that's for sure
Mox is here means blood is coming soon
Wtf is this Jack Perry theme
Beethoven’s 5th Symphony
lol Please do more of these when you can.
Everybody gets glass!
MJF and Cole have way too much chemistry. I'd love to see the blooper reel on these vignettes lol
Looks like we're the fifth hottest thread on Kbin. Great job on the boosting, guys.
Looks like they're really leaning into the whole Dynamite being goofy /Collision being serious thing. I'm a fan so far.
And I love both
Me too man, me too...we're entering the golden era of wrestling. Seriously.
Sure feels like it!
Good to see Britt back in the ring!
Everytime Mox disappears for a few minutes something gnarly gets pulled out.
what the medieval times shit is that board
Is this the first bed of nails in AEW? Can't remember seeing it before.
Pac is even more menacing given the circumstances
I swear Jackson was smiling after he took that table bump
Tap tap, excuse me, do you mind if I hit you with this chair? Yes? No?
He's a gentleman
I feel like Wheeler has universally been dubbed "The Little Shit" he is NO gentleman.
Yeah but the superkick fake into the chair DDT was worth it.
So who was in the limo that picked up Jack, I am totally expecting it to be Christian.
Honestly, I hope it is.
Why must we keep getting blueballed on the double clothesline
You posted, prematurely....
Yeah I'm pretty satisfied now
It's beautiful to have his first heel ploy end up with the title win and get hit with some Beethoven.
I love when the brown note entrance hits.
That match (Hook/JB) was great. I kinda hope this rivalry lasts awhile.
Fun match, they seem to have good chemistry together
I thought the same thing. They should let this feud play out a while.
Ffs moonssult onto Mox on THE BED OF Nails!
Welcome to AEW, Kota Ibushi!
You know the saying…impaled by his own…bed of nails….
I don't know if they'll win the belts, but I can't see the MJF/Cole partnership ending soon. They're too good together, and there's too much money to be made with them paired together.
We want tables to we want fire, Crowd knows what it wants.
There's sure to be glass and thumbtacks in this match. What the hell is Pac thinking wearing his damn underwear...
Guessing Mox didn't tell Renee about the bed of nails lol
Knowing them, they probably have one beside their bed.
Holy shit, Mox is setting up for a fatality!
My brain is short circuiting. Why is this happening?
How vicious is Blood and Guts gonna be?
I look away for one moment to pet the dogs and everyone loses their minds
You're right. This is so fun and light that the main event is going to be gory.
Top grade sports entertaining
I've had just enough beer to love all of this.
I was saying the same about my vape.
Oh, I did that too lol.
5 Star match and the bell hadn't even rung yet
This popped me. Well done.
Let’s fuckin gooooooooooooooo
Oh man, this is incredible.
The Double Clothesline elbow pad keeps evolving
Every week it grows more powerful
Lol I totally missed them going to the top
There's no way that didn't hurt when Nick went between the ring and the cage
For sure he’s going to have a massive bruise on his thigh
That double reversal by Sammy was awesome.
Great new music choice for Jack Perry, more subtle nods to Christians influence on him
Is Kota okay?
What a fucking match
The women really should have 2 matches per show if they're trying to manage like 9 different things for them.
That's part of why I don't mind the Outcasts. People rag on them elsewhere, but at least it's a way to get more women on TV. They just need a proper "insider" team--like Britt, Skye, and maybe Willow?-- to feud against and I'll be happy.
I like stables/factions for that reason too.
They specifically made Skye, Willow and Riho a group that helps each other. They also made Jamie, Britt and Shida a group that helps each other.
They have 2 titles though. Challengers that need to be fleshed out for both. Champs that also need to be treated as a big deal, and they obviously still want to showcase Britt and that's before you start thinking about building your next stars.
Someone is going off the cage into the ring....
😂😂😂 Damn poor Roddy.
Wheeler time!
I'm a classical aficionado; Jack is definitely winning me over with that theme.
Thumbtack reversal!
This is such an intriguing match. I really hope this leads to something big for MJF, Cole, or FTR. If not it seems like a weird way to kill some time with your world champ and ignore your tag division.
Jericho enters the arena. What shall this entail?
Haha oh commentary. Thought maybe it was Don Callis related.
pls not my kenny
I hate blood but that was pretty good.
The BCC is all alone!
Nick Jackson came in with the cheat codes turned on.
He screwed up because Yuta came in with a chair
Moxley reminding me that he’s my favorite
Jack Perry wearing Luchasaurus pants/boots? They going to team up again? (Yes please!)
I’m sure face-glass is no fun.
anyone else feel like there are a LOT more ads tonight?
I feel this way in general any time I watch. Rampage is nothing but commercials.
Golden Elite is about to destroy the BCC.
Whatif Don got to Kota and gets him to turn on Kenny and join him I can't :(
If that happens, Don will be the biggest heel in decades.
Damn. I haven't even thought about that option 😬
Ughhh Yuta is such a little shit
How are Adam Cole and MJF memes not a thing yet?
How is a buddy cop film not a thing yet? 😂
This'll be fun to see where the BCC goes from here.
How long till Mox bleeds? 5 minutes?
See Claudio, that's how you're supposed to swing someone...
That Samsung ad is the worst.
What a fun show. The bed of nails was a nice surprise. I wonder how long it'll take before it's DLC in Fight Forever? lol.
Jokes aside, it'll be interesting to see where BCC goes from here. Sounds like they won't have Danielson for some time...I wonder if they'll try to recruit someone new? Is breaking-up on the table?
I hope not, but I could see this turning into BCC vs Death Triangle
That makes a lot of sense. And I'd be cool with that...it's been too long since the Lucha Brothers have been on TV.
The dancing got real old real quick.
Apparently Jungle Boy is now Undertaker Boy
Rest in Perry
That blood and guts match was shit.
Also, click on the 'mountains' beside the .png link to see the pic without visiting Reddit.
That bed of nails spot had me squirming, and Kenny selling every point of contact as it fell on him was great.
Same here, and I really think Kenny's ability to sell pain doesn't get enough credit. He's so insanely well-rounded.
Damn, I forgot they don't start in the ring at the same time. I'm guessing Kota enters last?
That'd be my guess
