No one in the world is more entertaining between the ropes to watch then fenix

 

Holy shit they did it

 

lol all the drones calling bullshit by citing the kayfabe inflated 101,000 Mania 32 number.

 

Hey! I was there! I counted them all personally! I mean I had to do something for the 12 hours I was there that day and how shitty that event kinda was.

 

ALso, imagine going to the mat to say that WM32, probably the shittiest WM of the modern era that isnt WM27, was THE big WWE event.

 

In terms of crowd size and length… it was definitely the biggest. I’m not even exaggerating when I say that I was there like almost 12 hours. I had bought the WWE travel package and the shuttle dropped us off a few hours before the show even started. And by the time it picked us up it was like 1am. Definitely felt the length of that show

 

Oh, no doubt...but, like, argue that AEW couldnt even sell out back-to-back nights of a venue for 130k people (like WM39 did)....because they literally wont between All In and All Out...they might not even break 100k combined.

Also, hilariously, WM32 grossed $17.3mil; and they sold $29mil in tickets today for WM40. I think AEW, event at 80k, is like $9mil in gate?

 

I’m sure WWE will have to put their stamp on the arena next

 

Don't expect Edge at All In

 

I was wondering the other day if they had a big surprise debut being saved for All In. Mercedes Mone is the only one I can think of

 

Didn’t she break her ankle or tear an ACL recently? Something with a pretty long recovery I thought

 

Had no idea he was in this, I'm looking forward to it.

 

Edge is a top 5 childhood star for me, but about 80 percent of his direction in this miracle return run has been him picking up meaningless wins. just a very odd use of a once in a lifetime storytelling device.

 

We’ll always have that Rumble return

 

Wowww MJF posting a story of playing with his cat (calico ftw) and asking if he/she is a good girl.

what a fuckin babyface I love it.

 

fun fact: all calico are female (with a hyper small chance of a male)

 

I have a calico and completely knew that wow i'm ashamed of myself

I guess technically I wasn't wrong

 

if there is a gun to my head i prefer FTR to the Bucks, but all this sure makes it feel like the Bucks go over and im glad, i think they deserve it more in just about every way, especially with how they have carried the company flag compared to CMFTR now that all three have done embarrassing shit in even less time.

 

Was just looking at Cagematch, The Bucks are part of 30 of the top 200 tag matches of all-time; and if you got rid of all the 90's and AJPW stuff, its probably like 30 of the top 100 or so. All the iconic tag teams (Hardys, Dudleys, etc) show up there once or twice...even FTR/Revival are only on there like 6 times.

They 100% deserve to go over for what they've created both in AEW as a brand, but also just in engineering/producing the best tag matches of the last decade or so.

 

Crazy the bucks accomplished all that all while apparently having the same exact match every night.

 

That’s cause it’s Cash’s gun to your head

 

Highly suggest checking out the Fenix/Komander match from last night. Fuckers went HARD.
