The Asuka vs Natalya match was one of the better RAW matches in a while. Fucking brutal and great match! And crowd was into it

Just an angle to get him out while he serves a wellness violation suspension. Fuck. Wonder what it was for?

Berz out.

WWE hasn't announced anything have they?

This speculation comes up every time they do an injury angle. People are saying Rey was popped too lol.

I guess it's fresh in peoples minds after Andrade

everything Velveteen Dream has done so far since reinventing himself from Patrick Clark has been wonderful

rumour mill says WWE planning to sell PPV rights ahhha.

Dream is so great but honestly I really hate his offense. His brawling looked SO BAD last night.

And yeah Vince is talking about changes to the Network. I think a likely plan is to keep it the same, but have the 4 big shows on some form of PPV similar to what UFC did. I think they still want to do a free tier with ads.

The fact that the barely have over 1 million subs after all this time is a major failure. And they don't forecast ANY growth over the next quarter, which is the Wrestlemania quarter.

They make all their money on TV, so it makes most sense to go back to that with everything including special live events. Wrestlemania on free network TV like FOX or NBC could be second to only Superbowl in terms of ad rates and viewership.

Njpw Osaka the new beginning.

Another fantastic show top to bottom.

Really setup some matches moving forward.
I can't get Suzuki's laugh out of my head. It's so sadistic and hilarious to see at the same time.

Osprey anr Okada make a fantastic tag team

Hiromu vs Ryu Lee stole the show tho.

NJPW returns to MSG on Aug.22 for what they are now calling wrestle dynasty

At times this was one of my favourite matches ever! I was smiling the whole time, laughing and screaming at all the NASTY sick shots.

Suzuki 100% needs to hold that title for a while. He manages to stand out on the NJPW roster which is saying something

How about Naito's blade job? Wow! He was covered quick! Crowd went crazy when they saw it too. Was it even blood though? lol

I've seen the crowd's reaction to Naito live, they fucking LOVE this guy, more than just a performer it seems.

ive read that it was a blood packet and not a blade job.. i have to watch that bit back .

Naito is totally fucking over. He got the LOUDEST pop at wk14.

Yeah when I first saw it I was like holy shit that was a perfect crimson mask! Then he's cutting a promo after the match and it looks exactly the same LUL

It worked in the moment though

Someone on reddit posted this spot of Kenny kicking out of the Rainmaker... It gave me legit goosebumps all over, so I'll have to post it here


Damn I think I want to spend a day and just watch their matches all over again. That crowd!

Kenny vs Omega 1 is the modern day best match ever.
I however, enjoyed their dominion match a bit better. Something about can Okada kick out of the One Winged Angel and all the lore with the build up made it that much better.

Fuck man

If you aren't into the "wrestling" shows like NJPW and NXT but are more into "sports entertainment"

Nobody is doing it better than AEW. I think in a few years, we'll be saying nobody has EVER done it better than AEW.

They do everything right, with the angles, promos, characters, and of course the in ring is top quality. Everyone is perceived as a star, so crowds actually CARE about matches and are into them.

It reminds me of early Nitros, where the weekly shows built to PPVs, but the shows themselves were can't-miss because something important happened every week.

I love how in AEW, if you have a match advertised for the following week, you are put into the spotlight to sell next week.

had the nucks game and dynamite on side by side..
errrrr.. NJPW talent Jeff Cobb is wrestling Moxley next week...

scrolled through twitter... sounds like NXT put on a hell of a show again.

Takeover was possibly the best ppv in WWE history. Not even joking.

Matt Riddle is the next Kurt Angle. Vince might have to retire first though

Main event Cody Rhodes

Jesus

The whole show was fucking great.

End of the Battle Royale

Mox vs Cobb with the angle at the end

Page & Omega vs Lucha Bros was 4.5 stars min. And remember this is Kenny going at like 70%. When it's his turn to be the top star of the company, you guys are going to be blown away. If you weren't into NJPW during his run, you won't even believe how good a wrestler can be.

Then this...

Oh and AFTER the show, he goes and cuts a potential promo of the year


Wrestling has never been better. I am blown away

Holy shit. That was some emotional stuff! Wow. I don't even know what to say.

Berz out.

Are you watching AEW with your kid?

Smackdown was a great experience thoroughly enjoyed by the whole family. Lots of down time which wasn’t great for the kids but once the wrestling was happening it was really entertaining.

I could see us going again one day for sure.

Cody has come a long long way.
What a speech.

When I remember. Not much TV time at home

Berz out.

LOL first he gets a concussion, then people speculate wellness violation, then he recovers and actually ends up getting a violation LUL
