Wrestling Thread 6: It's Poppy • Page 497

Shida is awesome. I really think AEW can build their women's division around her. She's a star.

 

The first half of the PPV was pretty bad and the Hardy stuff is unforgivable

second half of the PPV was great

 

Was it bad in comparison to other aew ppvs or just bad in general?

 

The whole Hardy thing puts a very dark cloud over this PPV - there were good matches but that terrible decision to keep the bout going is what everyone will remember

 

Plus very little crowd heat/pops just sucks overall.

 

yeah that’s been a huge bummer for both promotions

 

Soooo..

It won't be a Hangman heel turn after all but a Kenny one? Would be cool. Have heel Kenny feud with Moxley, and position Hangman as a top babyface going after Brodie Lee's tnt title.

 

I full expect heel Kenny vs Moxley at the next PPV. They keep teasing the cleaner character

 

Uhhhhhh have y'all ever seen what Matt Sydal's foot looks like?

 

Feel like OC vs Moxley would be the next title match.

 

Do I want to??

 

The straight up wrestling was mostly good. But the Hardy injury/not ending the match and the battle royale overshadowed anything good about the show.

The story pay offs weren’t great imo either, as someone that has loved the Hangman and Brodie Lee/ Cabana/ Dark Order stories recently. The pay offs for both were average.

I think OC needs more time in the oven. He’s great, but needs a better feud before going into a title challenge.

 

They've already done Omega/Moxley and it seems like we're probably getting Archer/Moxley and Page/Omega at Full Gear.

 

Fuck it

From a motorcycle accident years ago

 

Christ

 

Bro what the fuck

 

I don't think that's the reason he botched, Meltz daddy was saying the ropes were slippery from all the sweat because of the humidity but still,fuuuuuck

 

Why was the humidity so bad? Did they not have the AC on for fear of circulating air or what?

 

They were outdoors bruh. I can speak for Florida being hot and humid as all fuck yesterday.

 

Wtffffffff

yeah Daily’s Place is an outdoor amphitheater.

as someone who sweats buckets just standing in place in Florida I can’t imagine trying to work a long match out there.

 

Ohhh ok that makes sense lol. All I’ve seen is the clip of the kid trying to get at Moxley during his entrance so I thought it was indoors

 

Lol Bill Alfonso currently doing commentary on the GCW show.

 

Hope this is true - still doesn’t excuse what happened last night

 

mediocre pay per view. was it me or did there not seem to be much of a build up + climax to most of the finishes? a bunch of matches felt like they ended flat.
