CI Wrestling Thread #56

This has been worth the 50 and more so far. Call me a mark, stan, whatever. Seeing Suzuki was amazing to me, Brit and Kris had a banger, Miro and Eddy did not disappoint, and like I said... I will never stop talking about that cage match.
 
I’ve not bought a PPV in five years, but I grabbed this one to see Punk coming back. That was probably the best cage match I’ve ever seen.

The Bucks match was worth $50 alone. Without a doubt the greatest tag team in history. They never have a bad or even average match. It’s always a banger. That top the top spot for tag matches in AEW and is one of the best Cage matches I’ve ever seen.
Buddy... c'mon. That was the LUCHA match lol
 
God help me, but I'm slowly beginning to warm up to the Bucks. The constant super kicks don't really bother me. No one batted an eye when Rock would flop all over the ring and kick out of 3 or 4 Stunners.

They're not tuning up the band, so it doesn't have the same power
 
dammit Chicago, that was shit. But this is it... Jericho is retiring. You see him crying.
 
That was one time the Dusty finish made sense with Jericho and MJF.

Thought Punk and Darby was really good, especially the last few minutes.

We still have QT "pee break" and the main event, this thing isn't ending until midnight is it?
 
AEW has so many guys that can be just elite level heels now with MJF, Punk, Jericho, Cole, Cody Rhodes, etc.

AEW working on a dream roster. I haven't been this excited for wrestling since like middle and high school

You’ll never, ever top that ending to a ppv. Holy shit I had goosebumps. It was perfect. And Danielson’s theme is amazing. I’ll have to hear it again but I think it’s the best in wrestling. You can’t help but go nuts to that beat.
 
my friend texted me and said your YouTube numbers will be off the charts this week, lol (and honestly, this past month has been insane with views)

The reaction Cole got was off the charts. Not sure how I feel about Danielson coming out immediately afterward, but we've all been waiting for it and AEW has all the momentum at the moment, so I guess why not.

One Khan is making things fun and exciting. The other Khan sounds like a dickwad.
 
Man I just don’t know - punk not gonna put over the young guys just gonna try to get back to main event - not all these guys can main event or it’s gonna be like wcw 1998 when people refused to job - it’s exciting they got these new signings but people will get ancy if they aren’t pushed the way they want

I get that but at the same time punk doesn’t need to be losing to Darby on his first match back he put him over during the match and after
 
All Out was great, the big matches delivered and there were plenty of surprises. I normally zone out for the bucks matches, but I was very entertained by their cage match. AEW will have the momentum, up to them to put together storylines.

Omega/Danielson will be awesome. Not sure where Punk goes next, hopefully someone he can promo against. Crazy to think of all the people AEW has now.

Punk was gone for 7 years and the last image a lot of people have was him getting beat up in the UFC. He needs to rack up a few wins again, before he can really start putting people over. I think Darby got a solid rub last night, and I’d bet he beats Punk eventually.

But I do agree it will be interesting to see how AEW/Kahn can find a way to try and keep everyone happy.

I’m not a booker but being gone 7 years I would have had Darby win the first time and have punk say he was rusty and needs to train harder to get back to what he was in 2014
