The ending of that match (Deonna vs. Madison) was rough. I was thinking Madison was either gassed or concussed 😬

[–] Montagge@kbin.earth 4 points 7 months ago (6 children)

Probably shouldn't have made that the move of the night

[–] ItsWizardTime@lemmy.world 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

They're beating Botchamania to the punch!

It's amazing how fast the MJF killer Wardlow became this Wardblow character...

[–] Montagge@kbin.earth 4 points 7 months ago (2 children)

In his defense he was banged up.

Not in his defense he needs to quit being the unstoppable monster because that's what he's always been.

[–] JelloBrains@kbin.social 4 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I'd agree to all that and add that MJF screwed him by disappearing, then showing up to lose, and then leaving so he couldn't continue the story.

[–] Montagge@kbin.earth 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I still wonder how much of that was real and how much of that was a story that didn't pan out

[–] JelloBrains@kbin.social 4 points 7 months ago

I wouldn't be shocked if it was an elaborate thing that went wrong, or maybe an injury situation, but it was just really odd, although that happens to sometimes.

[–] GeekFTW@kbin.social 3 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (3 children)

I'm still chuffed over that 1v20 or whatever match where Wardlow was pinning 4-5 security guards at a time regardless of their physical orientation in the ring. Nothing that has come since then has made me give a monkeys nut about him and like you said, him being the unstoppable monster isn't helping.

Edit: 'meat madness' jfc they're gonna 1v20 it again aren't they rofl

So... did Mox learn from Brock about going on early so you can go home early? I don't watch every Dynamite, but I swear it seems like he's on first every time I do.

[–] apj2k36@lemmy.ml 4 points 7 months ago

Gives him time to watch the kid while Renee does the interviews

[–] TellumSiege@kbin.social 4 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I figured they were going early because Cash had to make an early court appearance.

I'm guessing FTR takes this? Unless there's some HoB involvement...

Taz just made a UWF reference... and all I can think of is Herb Abrams the original wrestling Snowman... and now TK the new Snowman.

I think a draw was the right decision, that was deserving of a rematch and I don't even really like tag team wrestling.

[–] csm10495@sh.itjust.works 4 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I feel like after the MJF turn, the undisputed has basically floundered.

[–] Montagge@kbin.earth 3 points 7 months ago

I've enjoyed them beefing with the Best Friends, but it sucks that people are banged up

[–] Montagge@kbin.earth 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Claudio coming into frame like Mongo in Blazing Saddles

[–] TellumSiege@kbin.social 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Such a good movie

Remember: Dax is bald.

[–] TellumSiege@kbin.social 3 points 7 months ago

The way I remember is that Cash has an H in it. H for hair.

[–] Montagge@kbin.earth 3 points 7 months ago

But is he strapped?

[–] Travon333@kbin.social 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

We should've known they would need more than 20 minutes to fight

[–] Montagge@kbin.earth 3 points 7 months ago

Gonna need a full 60

[–] TellumSiege@kbin.social 3 points 7 months ago

Renee doing her best impression of Excalibur there.

[–] Travon333@kbin.social 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Where were these guys when Christian handled Copeland last week

[–] Montagge@kbin.earth 3 points 7 months ago

The children aren't going to object the father of the year

[–] TellumSiege@kbin.social 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

The next Fight Forever DLC better have dick punches in it. So many low blows lately lol

[–] Montagge@kbin.earth 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Probably cost $3.99

Is there anything more beautiful than Matt Tavern getting laid out?

[–] TellumSiege@kbin.social 3 points 7 months ago

Loved the way Bennett sold that Orange Punch.

[–] Travon333@kbin.social 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Just saying Mathew and Nicholas have been described as modern day Flairs and the corporate synergy with Woo would be top notch

[–] TellumSiege@kbin.social 3 points 7 months ago

Nailed it lol.

[–] Montagge@kbin.earth 3 points 7 months ago (4 children)

Jake Hager?

I'd be surprised if Garcia beats Christian but either way that's a big spot for him.

[–] Montagge@kbin.earth 3 points 7 months ago (2 children)

Christian has to drop the belt eventually and DG is red hot right now so I wouldn't be mad if he got the title

[–] TellumSiege@kbin.social 3 points 7 months ago

Oh I'd love it if he won. I just figured they're waiting to get the belt back on Copeland.

Oklahoma has parent issues. Booing a mother and disrespecting a father

[–] Montagge@kbin.earth 3 points 7 months ago

What else can you expect from Texas' hat

[–] csm10495@sh.itjust.works 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Every time Samoa Joe comes out, I say to my wife: "They should change his name to 'Joe the Samoan'"

I guess that could be his one man show comedian name.

My sense of humor is so bad.

They dispatched of the goon and the child while the vet watches on

Will Flair swerve us by finally not turning on Sting?

I'm starting to get Wardlow

[–] TellumSiege@kbin.social 3 points 7 months ago (2 children)

I thought that was his best promo in AEW.

[–] Montagge@kbin.earth 3 points 7 months ago

Easily, that was a huge jump in promo quality
