[Nash Diesel]

Like I said...It doesn't matter if you're Bryan Danielson or CM Punk or Ruby Riott. Everyone in AEW is on the same level.

Hook has one match and the trolling begins lol.

[Bert]

People have been hyped for Hook for a long time and he's been training at the nightmare factory and create a pro.

Everyone's not on the same level.

[Badger]

Chuck Norris got nothing on him.

Hooker Texas Ranger!

[Psycho666Soldier]

I could be like, "Let's not lie, Hook looked really good for a debut, but he's a long way to go before he's truly a star"

But that's no fun

Hook of the Table

[BGMaverick]

Nice debut for Hook. His theme was confusing at first but it’s got some potential.

[Donald]

Its ranked #99 on my list of impressive debuts.

[Murphy]

I thought he was great on commentary. He doesn't take himself seriously at all. Tazz singing Ruby Soho is one of the best parts of AEW 2021.


Tazz's commentary is always a highlight when I tune in.

We all know Donald is trolling, right? I mean, why else would he even post in this thread?

[Matthew]

winter is almost here

[Badger]

Winter already arrived in TNA back in 2010. Didn’t last long!

[Bert]

I'm excited for the show but we'll be leaving right after it's over to go to STL for my wife to be induced so I'm probably going to have to watch it again sometime after. Not sure how much I'll be able to really pay attention. :panic:

I'm not crazy, I didn't plan it that way. It just so happens they said be at the hospital at 10pm, AEW is over at 9pm, and it's like a 40min drive.

I feel like at the very least we get a KOR debut. Still holding out hope for Windham although it feels like a long shot. Everyone talks about how stacked the roster is, and it is, but some of the contracts from 2019 aren't going to get renewed so I think there's more room that way and then you have a roster with a higher tier of wrestlers that are over already and know how to work TV that you can rotate in and out if people get burnt out or need personal time.

I'll post the road to video when it comes out tomorrow or Wednesday but I can't guarantee I will in the future so anyone who likes them should go sub to AEW on youtube. They're good videos and they're getting close to 3 million subscribers.

Or just start looking at squaredcircle on reddit more often. They always land on the front page of that.

[Tim]

I watched some of Rampage and while Hook seems athletic he looks like he’s 14 and the fans chanting hooks gonna kill you seems super premature. It reminded me of Taz debuting in WWE with all of this bad ass hype just to show up looking like an over cooked hot dog in a one piece bathing suit.

Imagine it's 1997 ECW and there's Taz in the ring cutting a promo about Sabu. All the sudden out comes Hook.

If you thought the Mass Transit situation was bad.

Hook has shown zero skill. He's been around for a grip and every time he's gotten physical, usually got his ass kicked lol. But the crowd chants he's going to kill someone. Who? The 2-49 guy? Wow. Deadly. Hook belongs on Cobra Kai as the son of Mike Barnes.

Zero skill is probably a bit harsh as though admittedly it was Fuego, the guy did show some skill. I think the chants/praise for Hook is probably a combination of genuine praise/laughter that it has taken them this long to debut him. His physical look is his look and not much can be done about that. It’s not all pisstake but also agree he does have some ways.

Not everyone taking him seriously could be a good hook for him (pun intended).

Yeah very sad. The guy had been having multiple health issues that were very serious pile up one after another. I believe he had both his legs and one of his arms amputated.

[Badger]

I know part of it is a joke, but I think part of the reaction is that he did surpass some expectations. They were probably prepared to laugh “at” him either way but I think this is more laughing “with” him more a bit.

Regardless there’s something interesting there. Obviously there’s a lot of work to do there but intrigued now to see what they do with him as from first impression, he’s not going to be a totally comedy jobber (I don’t think). Give it more time before judging is what I’d say.

That last part is basically why I'm calling out these absurd reaction from fans. Trolling or not, having fun or not, How about some of you eat your own words and give it time before acting like this was so incredible?

Some AEW fans really want everything to be great. I respect that but when you pretend like this is the 2nd coming of Ronda Rousey....let's stop with the nonsense. "Give it more time before judging"

[VHS]

Let people enjoy things.

Hook's debut was a good one. I knew next to nothing about him and thought eh this kid's kinda tiny yeah? But he seems to be comfortable in his movement, his look will adapt over time and... he's a clean slate. Witnessing the very beginning of a second generation wrestler is always a yes from me. They kept it short and sweet, no fat to trim or anything. Just gets in there and demolishes Fuego. Can't wait to see how he performs against bigger opponents which is like.. everyone lol, but he's going to grow into this just fine fingers crossed. When I look at him I'm reminded of how Jungle Boy looked when he first started at AEW. On the indie scene here here was just a fit kid, but when standing next to folks on TV he needed to bulk up and he's slowly doing that. Hook's only in his early 20's so over time he's going to naturally bulk up.

I haven't seen anyone calling him the 2nd coming of anything, but I don't follow the same social media routes as everyone else. Was his debut a stinker? Absolutely not. Was is a good debut? Yeah. :yes:

As he’s one always to quash on AEW fans being enthusiastic, I’m not sure he entirely gets the nuance that people in this case are having a laugh but also impressed with Hook at the same time. :yes:

Hook's already more over than CM Punk. That's an absolute fact.

Why can't you just let me enjoy things and not go out of your way to say the complete opposite? It's weird. I used to think it was weird when that one dude used to follow you around and bust your balls after every post but now I see that he was who you really wanted to be. Who was that, Slare, The Mike, One Ball? It was one of those guys.

Anyway VCR, take your own advice. Quit pretending like a weirdo. We get it, you're life sucks brother that's why you do the gimmick posting. If you don't feel like you fit the category of AEW fan that I'm speaking on why defend it?

VHS speaking on my behalf and me agreeing with him is not really the point I’m making tbh.

The real point to make here is, although you seem to maybe half-realise that this Hook thing is part of a joke, you still think this is like kinda like a victory for pointing this out like you know better for all your wisdom. Reason I quoted Psycho… the people who have commented on the Hook thing are not stupid. Yet not just this but you seem to take anything people are even slightly over a 50% positive about the AEW product and say “Ah wait don’t get your hopes up.” You seem like Yokozuna more than Diesel here just ready to Bonzai drop on anything that is at the least you think is considered too positive despite saying you’re a big AEW and general wrestling fan yourself.

At least Donald doesn’t really hide the fact he’s trolling but you put yourself over like the biggest fan of all things wrestling including AEW yet you’re generally the first in this thread to think you are trying to bring people back to reality when you know just like this Hook thing, people just want to enjoy and have a good time. It’s a half-joke but they are aware but you have to be the wet blanket to rain on everyone’s parade because they’re happy.

Just an insight and you’ll probably just look for people being too positive again but you know, you could just chill and let people enjoy if they’re being a bit hyperbolic. The intelligent posters know that really. Just chillax with the rest.

Second hour was a forgettable sequel.

I didn't understand this reference. Who is it supposed to be?

Brody King

[Donald]

I'd be frustrated if I watched a match for an hour only for it to end in a draw. Isn't this the second time that's happened to Daniel Bryan?

[Nash Diesel]

That was a clinic. Incredible from bell to bell. Proud of the crowd for hanging in there. If you're not putting Hangman in your top 5 of 2021 you're missing out. I was actually watching this seeing him surpass Danielson. I was 200% wrong in thinking it'd be cool if Danielson won. Who's excited for what's next? Me.

[Nash Diesel]

I'd be frustrated if I watched a match for an hour only for it to end in a draw. Isn't this the second time that's happened to Daniel Bryan?

The great thing about this match is like with other hour long classics like Omega/Okada for example, it didn't feel like an hour. The draw....Best booking decision you could make honestly. DANIELSON might not be the #1 wrestler in the company after seeing Page evolve so much in that match. It makes me wish I had been there live for that match instead of the Kenny Omega/Page title match. Omega's great but he's not Danielson or Page. It's like comparing Triple H to Kurt Angle. One guy is very good, the other incredible.

[Mazer]

I still want a Heel Dragon reign. And I will sullenly undervalue and diminish everything else (except Hook) until it happens

[Badger]

Phenomenal match no doubt and booking and storyline- wise probably the right decision but at the same time, it still feels like they blew their load not doing this on PPV. No matter what stip they come up with next, it’ll be hard to top that.

Just feels like this could’ve been served for a better occasion then see what happens next, especially when the second half was so meh.

[Psycho666Soldier]

I trust they can follow up for a rematch. The match was great. I don't think it really matters whether it's on TV or not.

[Badger]

I trust they can follow up for a rematch. The match was great. I don't think it really matters whether it's on TV or not.

Oh the rematch will no doubt be great, just a feeling of mine that they gave away too much too soon in the opener. They could’ve slow-built it a bit more, put this on the ending of a PPV then make fans salivate more to see them settle the score at the next PPV.

I know hot openers do work but I think that should’ve been saved for the end of a show as the crowd will probably be shattered to fully take in what’s next and what was served after that while not necessarily all bad it no doubt was hard for them to get as invested.

Another take is just to let the ring be MJF’s thing for now and not waste yearly battle royals on it. It’s his thing now to the point where if he loses it, it’ll be so long gone it’s beyond care.

[Nash Diesel]

They were probably worried they couldn't sustain viewership if the first hour sucked. It's the same reason they put CM Punk matches on first.

AEW doesn't really have anything to lose so Psycho is right in the sense that it doesn't matter if it's on tv or not. People don't really buy ppv these days and you're trying to get ratings. That's how we wound up with jobbers being non-existent for the most part. Now it's every week a big match that you'd expect to be a ppv match. Plus AEW only does 4 ppvs a year-which shows they don't give a shit about that model. No different than WWE-do you think if they cared about "ppv" they'd give it away for free?

He is right from that sense but from a business point of view, more could have paid for that instead of making it so easily accessible.

Tbf I think there are flaws on both ends of their models here. WWE I think do too many PPV shows on top of their normal TV shows (eg Raw being three hours every week!). I think AEW recognise that “less is more” a bit but when it does come to their PPVs, though only 4 a year they are so long at 4 hours a pop that when they do come around plus the big matches they could’ve saved for PPV are given away a bit. WWE are guilty of that same thing as well.

I honestly think the old WWE/F model was simple and straightforward. Once a month as long as they kept the storylines straightforward. Though saying that, the network/TV pressure to put on weekly shows is vastly different now to back in the day.

[Defrost]

That rating is rough. Think it's time to get that belt off Hangman and probably on Punk. Kenny looking better in hindsight.

[Tainted Eclipse]

They certainly haven’t done a good job making page feel like a star on the tv since he won the belt

[VHS]

I'm happy Page is champion because it means Omega isn't anymore. But yeah... put it on Punk or Bryan plez.

[Sasori]

That match was too good for TV, but I'm still glad they did it. Winter is coming is one of their contracted specials, so they needed a big match. Danielson continues to over deliver and Hangman had no problem keeping up.

[Badger]

Page beating Omega to put a book-end to that crescendo from a storyline perspective made a lot of sense, but while that was a great feel-good moment and can see what they’ve been trying to do, his gap while Danielson has been destroying the Dark Order has hurt them. He should be trying to fuck Danielson up the minute that first match happened…hell even during his promo.

He should have been Stone Colding Bryan’s arse right after that promo and after every match Bryan went too far but no just let him sit back and have Bryan destroy his buddies. It’s not compelling TV really just having him sit on his arse.

[Badger]

While Page more than delivered on that match, the build-up with him was pish. If they did that better then maybe just maybe ratings/interest might have improved.

[Vandal]

Tbh going a lot on what Defrost said about the rating (haven’t looked up the actual number tbf) but guessing the TV and what this number turned out to be could have maybe been improved if they built the storyline better than what they did in the build up.

[Nash Diesel]

It seems that no matter how good or bad a storyline is it doesn't really move the needle that much. They're hovering around 900,000-1 million viewers consistently on TV. I don't know how you got all that from Mr New Japan wishing Kenny Omega hadn't lost the title to Page and CM Punk should get it now.

[Nash Diesel]

I'll be honest I thought Defrost was just being a smart ass. You know like how everyone is about Hook.

[Badger]

Besides all that, why you so hardass about people having a laugh about Hook? If Tazz was Dr Honeydew, it’s like an athletic Muppet Beaker breaking out of his shell kicking arse! I thought Sheamus pulled off the Beaker look but Hook does it good!

Btw still helluva not forgotten what you said though mellowed out!

[Murphy]

That match was awesome and so glad I watched it on FITE. Adverts would have really taken away from it.

[Nash Diesel]

We know. I could question further why you still post when you’re more than aware that it ingratiates people but not the right thread for this so you continue to do what you do and we end this.

PS Hook over Sammy!

You need to stop speaking for people. This whole "we" thing. If you only post here as some lame attempt at being popular, you need to unplug and look into finding a new vice. Maybe get a job, a girl/boy, a life, I'm pretty sure your profession isn't message board friend maker.

PS-Who cares.

I'll be here all night and don't forget to tip your bartender. And pick up a free copy of my new cd-Soy Boys: The Cancer of AEW.

Speaking of the club, instead of Roderick Strong Jr's mom dropping him off in the van she should've dropped him off at the club so he could get that hair back.

:spit:

So there's an 8 man tag tonight on Rampage and a 10 man tag. Wild.

[BGMaverick]

So there's an 8 man tag tonight on Rampage and a 10 man tag. Wild.

They were wild in very different ways. I'm curious how the finish for the 10-man comes across because it seemed wonky in the moment. The submission match seemed pretty good too.

Danielson was such a great heel during the match. There was definitely a stretch where the crowd just stood up for a good chunk of the match and it wasn't near the finish. Definitely a fun ride.

[Bert]

https://i.imgur.com/E8GsAzS.jpeg

So I guess that's the announcement they ran out of time for on Dynamite.

[VHS]

hell yeah :yes:

[Nash Diesel]

That's perfect. Homage to the King of Harts by having two KOTR tournaments. Extremely excited to see who will be part of it. One of the best parts of AEW is the amount of tournaments we get a year. I wish more companies would follow suit.

Shout out to Tony Khan because this should make people want to check out "Tony Time" more often. A huge announcement like this honoring Owen Hart and his family and they just had too much going on that was stellar on Dynamite--they transition it to Tony Time to get us to check that out. I'm not really sure what Tony Time is in AEW, I know what it is in WWE and I like it.

[Bert]

Well there will be more info on Rampage. I wouldn't be surprised if we get a few debuts of men and women during this tournament. I'd be surprised if they overlooked Ember Moon/Athena as long as she's healthy. Keith Lee would be the other one I'd expect. Their non-competes were up like 1st week of February though so I guess it all depends on when the tournament is.

[Nash Diesel]

This would be a great time to debut David Benoit. Keep it Canadian heavy. Do any of the Harts have kids/grandkids trying to break in?

I wonder when Killer Kross' non-compete will be up. Keith Lee, future AEW World champion. If he came in through that tournament he should win it.

[Matthew]

i hope it's a one night tournament

[VHS]

Yeah, one night bada bing bada boom. Less risk of the thrill being gone over time.

[JuveLeo]

I'm excited to see it. Also intrigued to see who participates. We might see a few surprises

[Tyson]

Are the winners going to be guaranteed title shots? AEW’s version of the MITB briefcase?

[Bert]

i hope it's a one night tournament

Maybe if it's like 8 people each they could have a men's week of Dynamite and a women's week where they have the semi finals on Rampage?

It's not til May so who knows what the roster looks like then with a lot of guys and girls non-competes up in February and some peoples contracts undoubtedly not getting renewed.

Part of me hopes they have main stars in it more but I'll understand if they don't.

[Mazer]

When the bucks and Cole deliver the 3 way super kick, it just looks awkward for Bobby Fish.

At least let him do a countdown or something. Poor guy looks like he's not been invited to the super kick party

[Bert]

It's his super kick party and he'll cry if he wants to.

[Bert]

I already know what The Bucks will say to Adam Cole when he betrays them:

Et Tu, Baybay?

[Sasori]

Yeah, one night bada bing bada boom. Less risk of the thrill being gone over time.

Feels like the tournament to crown the first TBS champion has been going on forever. My interest has been steadily declining every week.

Does Cornette really like Hook or is he just trying to up his credibility with the AEW fanbase?

If I'm understanding the Hook reaction it's that people are purposely being tongue in cheek that he's incredible but in reality he's just pretty good for where he's at in experience.

Yes..... you know. But does Cornette know?

The break up of Cole and the Young Bucks is accelerating faster than I thought. I know they like to book things long term, but I give it a couple months tops before someone turns.

So really fucking exciting is what you're saying.

[Donald]

Yes.

[Nash Diesel]

https://i.imgur.com/oKM6z41.jpeg

We just left the theater and my son said "didn't OG Spiderman look like CM Punk 2021?"

[Ringo]

I kind of go back and forth on KOR. There are times where I really like him and think he's by far the best and most interesting of the Undisputed Era guys. But then there's also times that he bores the shit out of me. Fish & O'Reilly work well together anyway. They'll be good to have around, I just don't particularly want to see them featured as one of the top acts.

I feel like there have been a few times where there's a kid dressed as Orange Cassidy in the front row and he's either not seen them or just ignored them. He got a reaction for giving the kid a fist bump this week. He should definitely go over to them before the match a la Bret or Rey Mysterio.

Danielson continues to knock absolutely everything he does out of the park. Page as champion isn't quite working for me yet but they're trying and he could still grow into the role. We'll see.

Looking forward to these Owen Hart tournaments. Neat video with all the different wrestlers talking about him.

Main event was a lot of fun. Loved the special face paint and how star studded it all felt. A proper TV main event and appropriate for the arena and city they were in. I'd like to see more multi-person tag matches on TV featuring alliances between AEW's bigger stars.

[Badger]

Matching Pinnacle trunks were neat as well.

Also like the slow burn they’re continuing to do with Wardlow.

[BGMaverick]

Since AEW does accept the past from other places as cannon, I'm curious to see how they navigate the fact the last time we saw Cole and KOR together, they were trying to kill each other.

[Nash Diesel]

They'll just say that it was a script and in AEW they don't have to follow a script.

[Bert]

Broke a million.

.37 demo

[Nash Diesel]

Oh they're about to break a million tonight buddy.

Man remember when companies could barely get a million views. Sting and CM Punk are proof they're the biggest draws in wrestling. When are we getting painted up CM Punk on Ringside????

Now's the perfect time to have Syxx and The Outsiders show up for a 6-man and we finally get a match involving the GOATs of the last 30 years Nash and Punk.

[mth]

I bet mth is HOOKED now!

I did watch HOOK's debut. It was pretty good. Seems like he's got potential. Can he talk?

As for KOR being in AEW. Enjoy, AEW fans. Wish the UE gang had all gone there a couple years sooner so they weren't clogging up the NXT spotlight for so long. Certainly not going to help get my eyes on their product. Will be curious, like BG said, to see if they acknowledge the Cole/KOR feud from WWE. if I had to guess, I'd say they'll say they "worked things out in the ring" and that the feud/matches were how they worked through and resolved their issues.

[Bert]

I don't understand why mth hates good wrestlers.

[Nash Diesel]

mth I'm with you dude and you know this....maaaaaaaaaaaaaan

As a wrestling fan with no blind brand loyalty, I felt UE made NXT weak and look at Fish and Cole in AEW. Cole went from main eventing to getting kissed by Trumpers. Bobby Fish...well...he's always been pretty brittle so good luck on him lasting another week. Shocked he's made it 5 matches without blowing his ACL and collecting a check for another 12 months.

[mth]

I don't understand why mth hates good wrestlers.
Doesn't matter if you can kill it between the bells if you're the most bland-ass generic gang of internet darlings in the biz (and no, KOR becoming a cringe-fest hipster dweeb didn't help his case). Hopefully Roddy follows his boys over soon.

[Bert]

I dig Creed Bros.'s style and I like seeing what new fresh folks have to offer. As far as UE clinics go, I refer back to my previous post. Clinics are boring if I don't give a damn about those putting them on and UE never did anything to make me invested in them as characters and then they went on to overstay their welcome.

Hook still looked nice in his second match. The no-sell of the spiked driver was less than ideal but the crowd was all about it. I do think the embracing of Tommy Conlon from Warrior fits his aesthetic. If you haven’t seen that movie, you should. It’s quite good. Anyway, like Conlon, Hook just gets his business done and then walks right to the back. I dig it.

Cody just spammed the hell out of Guevara there at the end lol.

Why would that be necessary? Punk and Darby did the whole 123 kid/Bret sequence for their match and neither are related.

[chatty]

Hook reminds me of a poor Pete Dunne tbh.

[Nash Diesel]

One of the best parts about AEW is that they are heavy with the nostalgia. Like Bert mentioned, the Punk/Darby match using the Bret/123 Kid sequence or this more recent attempt at a callback to 20 years ago with the Taz-JR-Lawler angle. Every week I get reminded me of something from my late teens/early 20's.

Hook should get chokeslammed by Luchasaurus next week and just pop right up. I'd say Big Show but it's bad enough we had to believe John Silver could be competitive against Danielson.

What's wrong with looking competitive though? Silver got in some moves, but never did it seem like he stood a chance against Danielson. Bryan beat the crap out of him mostly through a commercial break and didn't even lose his man bun once the match was over.

As for Hook, I really really hope he's not booked like Goldberg or something. I like the dude, but if no selling becomes his thing then eh... I'm going to walk the plank with the guy real quick.

Phenomenal. Just like his dad.

What I want to know is, can he fight or is he bitch made like his pops? Everyone in the business knows Taz was a fake tough guy that's why he was careless in the ring because he had to make up for it being 5'3" and only tough in judo in the 80's.

Or showing his dick at the tanning salon to teens.

[Donald]

Nash I know is being sarcastic about his AEW praise. I think Bert too. No way anyone really enjoys this. Only thing that is interesting in AEW is that Abadon. But I think she only wrestles on YouTube.

[Tyrone]

Hook is like watching NXT 2.0 to me. I'm really not sold on the kid, but he's new'ish so I'll give it time. I may regret it, but at least I'll wait patiently and hope he develops.

[BGMaverick]

He's possibly (probably) underqualified to be on Rampage but he's clearly got a following, so he could potentially be "overqualified" to be on Dark. He serves a better purpose to be on Rampage.

[VHS]

Hook is still one of the guys to watch for me. Definitely out of the bunch of fodder they have, he's towering over the rest.

[Donald]

He'd be more impressive if he didn't look like he'd blow away on a windy day.

[Mazer]

I accept Bert's statement that he will always love HoOk. And more power to him for enjoying what he wants to.


For the rest of the IWC, it will follow a pattern we've all seen before.

1.Tongue in cheek statements.

2k The person shows competence, people enjoy it and get excited.

3. The excitement gets beyond what is earned.
-Here's where I'm sure some will disagree with me. hoOK has some entertaining points to his matches. Definitely good for a beginner. And he has a character. All positives. He's still not produced any match beyond what I can see on any given episode of 205 live. His build is not great. He has had no real feuds, and no memorable mic work. His level of contribution does not merit being a top pop or merchandise mover.

4. The counter movement starts in opposition to the popular sentiment.

5. The counter opinion becomes the dominant opinion (not universal, but dominant).



We've all seen this before, and know how the movie goes.

[Nash Diesel]

The one thing about some of the AEW hardcores is that they will try to prove all of that wrong. They'll try to go against the norm and be accepting of things that usually wouldn't be for an extended period of time.

[Mazer]

They've just had now had the tenure to start forming their own counter-culture vs. their existence being the counter-culture.


If I'm wrong....well, honestly I probably won't care that much....but I will be moderately surprised. And you can bring it up at random times.




Like I bring up your Peyton Royce predictions.

Not a biggy, but I wish Moriarty went over Spears on Dark. Lee is super bankable as an up and comer.

Peyton Royce-first ever WWE and Impact Women's tag-team champion.

In regards to the first part of your post I agree and we're already seeing it. Some fans are coming to AEW shows acting like there's a substitute lol. Think about...Fuck the Jim Cornette inspired signs that we're seeing more and more of, how about signs like "I Love Twinks" or "Nyla Rose Is That Guy's Dad" ?

I love watching AEW but I have no real desire to be part of that fanbase. The nice thing is more and more fans are becoming more subjective with what they're going out of their way to praise. The same people who go and shit on a WWE fans for their blind allegiance will excuse every negative from Jacksonville Dixie and his band of live action Jakks figures.
