I really enjoyed MITB. The only issue being Damien/music cue being messed up.. which I think Damien should have just lifted his shoulder. Some insane spots in the MITB matches, especially from the women.
Also NXT Ethan Page is now the champ! crazy. Finally getting the push he deserves.

Women's match had some rough spots but on a whole good fun. Zoey lucky not bust her head open.
Mens was fast paced as well and from that side I actuality like that it's been burned. When you look at Raw, Gunther is likely winning at SS and will hold it for a while.
Cody's not dropping it any time soon and I think going for one of the lesser belts makes it a bit pointless.
Fully behind the idea that Drew needs to do a Brock/Cena to Punk in the first match now.

The main roster titles have been predictable forever, which is why Ethan winning was somewhat of a shock. I think someone mentioned it was a nod to Backlash 2000 something?
I think there will be a number of matches with Punk/Drew, then we'll get a last man standing and it'll be that.

Surely they have to include Seth in the matches with Drew because I'm doubting Punk can carry a 1-1 these days.

They could add Seth at some point seeing as MitB also continued the feud between him and Punk. Maybe all 3 of them at Bad Blood? Looks like Priest and Finn will be feuding soon.

I think there will be a number of matches with Punk/Drew, then we'll get a last man standing and it'll be that. Yeah it's how Cena won with HBK sweet chinning him onto another. He's definitely a fan of nodding to he's career. |

Custody of Dom at Summerslam then. Dom on a forklift match.

The HHH 'Then Now Forever' really doesn't need to be 30 seconds long.

Good episode of Raw. Loving the Wyatt Sicks stuff and intriguing to see Bo in the office. I wonder if any of that stable will have a match at SS?

Could be against Gable and the Creed brothers(they need to just do that now instead of all the shots of them talking in the background).
But not sure who that does any good for in regards to losing.
Chad needs to start winning some big matches.

Some reports that Stephanie Vaquer has been finishing up before going to WWE.
Edit. Now confirmed

Another banger of a Dynamite. The ending has made me the most I've been excited for a Women's Title match in AEW.

Hmm I'm just not convinced turning MJF is a good thing. His turn last year was superb, to now revert back to what he was a few years ago feels like a misstep. Sure, he's probably selling it as HA HA I fooled you all.. ah yeah what a swerve. Lets call some people in the crowd ugly.. fat.. and yeah your city sucks. Is WWE writing this?

He's much better as a heel and AEW don't really have any amazing heels in the main event scene at the moment. Plus there's little to no chance he'd get cheered over Ospreay at Wembley so their hand is practically forced.
Contrary to that I'll be cheering for Toni Storm over Mariah May at All In despite the latter being British. What a turnaround she's had since adopting this persona.

Maybe. I think think wrestling is at its weakest when they have these clutch reactions to change due to whatever circumstance. I think MJF proved he could pull off a tweener perfectly without going full heel.

Yeah, the Cody/Roman feud really suffered at Mania after they pivoted from Rock/Roman due to crowd reaction  |

I mean you would have thought Rock was the champion with the beat downs he gave Cody ha.

Good for them. Feel like they need a word with HBK though and get some of the bigger NXT names sent over.
Though it's feeling more and more like they are building towards a TNA vs NXT Worlds Collide event.

I'm confused by the promo between Damien and Gunther? That was weak. Didn't Gunther say earlier in his video package that he's here to win championships, but then Damien in his promo says Gunther is here just for a pay cheque? eh..

Probably a mistake from Priest seeing as Gunther has always been about being honour and prestige to the sport and titles. That Rowan video was  Though I do feel HHH messed up by not doing Otis vs Chad after Clash. Also.. No. |

I'm not entirely sure where Chad fits into this Wyatt stuff really. Other than he's been targeted and Otis won't help no more, so the Creed Brothers are helping.. but then surely a better feud is Creed/Chad and then someone gets recruited on Alpha Academy?

Just poor booking not to have had Chad vs Otis which would have surely been the ideal place to put the Creeds with Chad.
Otis was also incredibly hot less than a month ago.

Whenever my partner sees Otis she reminds me of his sweaty arse from Mania last year.

Book Danhausen as final member of the Wyatt Sicks.
Ruins everything that came before it but do it anyway.

I think Danhausen could get over in WWE, but perhaps via TNA/NXT. I was listening to Joe Hendry's interview with CVV, and he said that it wasn't until TNA he got his character right after Eric Young took him aside. I think Danhausen has potential to reign it in a bit and be a bigger star if someone could sit down and flesh it out more.

Is Danhausen still with AEW? Seems to return then just vanish again.

I hadn’t realised Joe Hendry was still on the road but he was at North in Newcastle wrestling Elias the other night.
Danhausen would make so much sense in TNA. He still does toy videos on youtube but I can’t remember the last time I saw him wrestle.

With the Hogan bollocks this week, it reminded of his match with Shawn Michaels and the big fuck you Shawn gave Hogan by totally over selling everything.
