Yeah, i agree, the energy on the announce team is a nice positive. Feels like a good vibe. I’ll be much happier a few shows in when the nerves settle and everyone hits their groove!
I’m flipping back and forth too… it’s tough … i feel bad for anyone trying to go against Io Shirai
8:15
So far… this is a bit confusing in terms of tone. I hope they take a lot of notes, and figure out what works and what doesn’t. My feeling so far is that I’ll be watching NXT first, AEW second. But I’m looking forward to when there’s some story lines set up.
The ending just changed everything lol, I’m loving what they did there. Overall it was a solid night.
Page and Pac had a real feud going and they blew this match off on TV which makes me thing they have different plans now for each. The match lacks all the heat I’d have expected after their DoN feud
well, that ended extremely well I thought. The We the people ending was everything I wanted, I think there was some slow moments but man… that ending, the last 30 min, made me lose my marbles. Dang.
Good show, but the crowd going nuts for the return of Jack Swagger shows the AEW fans will get behind anything put in front of them… except the librarians haha
And unfortunately that’s something Hager has yet to achieve. I hope AEW books him well, b/c he’s still got plenty to offer a company. Good first night for him & JR built him up strong. Maybe he’ll finally get to give him the Dr. Death push. As long as AEW doesn’t do a Brawl 4 All, he should be alright!
We haven’t seen Hager in two years
and he’s a guy that most people feel could have been bigger if booked better. He’s perfect for an AEW crowd.
It’s so weird to hate on a fan base that “pops for anything”. You could hear crickets when Rusev returned a couple weeks ago. I’ll take the crowd having fun over the crowd bored to tears every day.
