Making Nattie take the loss after Piper mocks her dead dad. Cold game.

That match was painful to watch...

Kofimania walked so Tozawamania could gloriously soar through the air in a pink Alpha Academy shirt.

Somewhere deep in the locked dungeon where he's been sealed away from society, Vince McMahon just got the sudden urge to put the Heavyweight belt on the guy from Forgetting Sarah Marshall

absolutely no one wants this.

MJF would have nuclear heat for the rest of his career if he was "the man that killed Ric Flair in ring".

But I guess he's supposed to be a good guy now?

I do not want this

Took my first suplex tonight!

Just remember, you're starting older than Michael Hayes was when he retired in-ring. Protect ya neck!

Age hasn’t stopped Ric Flair and it won’t stop the SLABster!

it physically pains me that Logan Paul is actually good at wrestling.

if Meiko Satomura somehow ends up on the main roster, then we’ll officially knows Trips and HBK are fully in charge.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

How big would the bag have to be to get Satomura to move to the US full time?

I don't know if it's a money thing as much as it is a "time off to run her own promo/wrestling school in Japan" thing. I doubt she'd actually move to the states so it'd probably never happen but at the same time, it's clear how much respect Triple H and Shawn Michaels have for her so maybe something could be worked out. So I guess the answer is... huge.

Man, I don’t get Solo. Dudes a way worse in every way third wheel Uso.

Off that charts instincts / reaction time. You know that won over every single one of the boys in the back.

Absolute monster signing for WWE if true. Also says a lot about Tony Khan’s complete inability to foster a strong female division at AEW. She was pretty much there for the picking during her feud with Willow Nightinhale and he either decided not to make an offer or forgot to or something.

Plot Twist, he uses that money to make his own upstart.

I don't know much about Giulia but I assume there is no way she can work that style in WWE while AEW probably says "great, knock yourself out!" which makes it even more confounding.

yeah, I don’t think WWE would appreciate the power bomb heavy style that pretty much rules Stardom but it hasn’t really stopped Kairi from being 75% of Japan Kairi in America and I feel like Giulia is talented enough to make the adjustment to more of a Rhea Ripley-style wrestler.

I do agree that she was tailor-made to rule AEW though. Not that TK has shown himself capable of running an interesting women’s division.

Bayley dropping Dakota on her bad leg because she noticed Kairi being nice to a fan is peak heel behavior tbh. Really don’t think she needs the reported face turn that’s coming. Trips just needs to let her win a match.

 

[pdxKingsFan]

They are going to turn on Bayley so hard.

They seriously need to bring back THIS version of heel Dakota if they intend on keeping her as a heel:

Hunter trying to poach pretty much every single perfect AEW-style Japanese wrestler from under TK’s nose after losing out on Ibushi. I’m guessing Ospreay is next at this rate.

Spoiler: AEW Full Gear

So, basically, if Julia Hart hadn't taken time off for her honeymoon, she'd have been TBS Champion already?

I mean, what in the hell are we even trying to accomplish here?

I’ll at least give Ric credit for selling that low blow better than his daughter has sold anything since she came back last year but still… Why did anyone associated with AEW sign off on this?
