I feel quite confident there is no consequential amount of viewers watching Dynamite because Jim Ross is on commentary.

Merry Christmas Xrodmuc and Noid. This is WCW 2000/TNA level bush league shit.

Will you stop trying to antagonize those two since all its done is make the wrestling forum more miserable to hang around these days.
That trolling shtick of yours got old and very annoying even quicker than with the owenbrown stuff. |

It will probably really annoy me whenever AEW launches their second show on TNT.
It annoyed me years ago when WWE launched Smackdown b/c I had to watch another show to know what's going on. |

Today marks the one year anniversary of pandemic-era AEW. That episode is so jarring to watch back because of the complete silence of it all, which is understandable of course because it was such a strange and uncertain time for all and there wasn't much time to do anything but just run the already written Dynamite in an empty arena. They course corrected the next week by adding wrestlers as a crowd as they realized how unsettling it was without any ambiance. Assuming there's not a massive setback with the vaccine rollout I think by All Out they might be running full crowds at Daily's Place, and as of now September 8th in Boston is supposed to be the first Dynamite back on the road. Can't wait, miss full crowds so much. |

Maki Itoh has deleted her twitter due to intense cyber bullying from wrestling fans
|
Good to see the wrestling community learned from Hana Kimura. The Cult of Cornette are joyless fucking scumbags.
|
The self-proclaimed God of Piss and Shit probably got a lot of grief from all sides. It likely escalated after she was comically bad at hitting someone with a microphone.
But besides all that, did she actually delete her Twitter due to cyber bullying or is this classic Slikbate? |
I mean wrestling Twitter is dreadful so it would not be surprising.
|
You could take the word “wrestling” out of there and still be accurate.
The comment section of any tweet from any celebrity you enjoy following is or will become a negative mess. |
You guys do realize it was AEW fans upset she didn't sign with AEW, right?
|
Can YOU confirm this?

Yeah, I can’t even listen to Jim Cornette talk about anything current anymore. A full Fucking hour on Miro and company? And for someone who trashes Trump and his supporters for being “sexist pieces of shit” or whatever he calls the, turned around and doubles down on slut shaming because people said bad things about him. Also fuck Brain last, I’m tired of schtick as well.
|
Corny is right about a lot of things no doubt. It's shocking to me that he has such a large following. You'd think he would have some initiative to produce his vision of wrestling at some point. But in reality that vision won't sell tickets in a lucrative way. He's best making his money the way he is now. Still it's shocking the affect he has on things. I haven't listened to his podcast in a long time now. He has nothing of interest to say anymore. He's just negative, what's the point of it all?
|
I know he likes to say that he’s doing it for all the old school wrestling fans who hate this modern day hokie bullshit, but in actuality most of his listeners are WWE fan boys who hate watch AEW. Old school fans who hate this hokie bullshit just don’t Fucking watch it. And would prefer he told stories about mid south or Florida or even shit stain. Anything else.
|
Also he’s so full of shit when he craps on guys like Moxly for looking like a plumber when he managed god damn Dennis Coundry and Bobby Eaton.
|
Listen to the questions he gets. 95% of them are fans sucking up to him. "Modern wrestling sucks, right Jim...…"
|
And then proceed to ask him a question about an AEW show they just watched. So fucking r word.
|
I’m just really upset because it used to be so much more enjoyable and little by little, week by week, it’s just become a 2-3 show trolling wrestlers he doesn’t like, or pretends not to.
|
I listen to both of Cornette’s podcasts weekly. It’s very relaxing to listen to someone speak who understands why wrestling is shit and will likely need so much fixing before it becomes relevant again that none of us will be alive to see it. I get it. AEW hyping themselves as the “back to basics” alternative and then just doing a lot of old WWE shit as if the “basics” is late 90s WWE was kinda gross to me.
And this is coming from xrod and noid’s biggest detractor. But Goddammit, Cornette speaks the truth and I love it. |
Thanks for your take.
|
I also listen to Bruce Prichard’s podcast pretty much every week and he’s about as full of shit as they come. So entertainment value trumps everything for me even if Cornette wasn’t always right.
|
Kevin Nash is my favourite shoot interview and I know he's completely full of crap lol
|
Btw, this guy has been uploading a bunch of Timelines
|
I never thought of Nash that way.
Doesn’t give a fuck about the “integrity” of the business but I never thought of him as dishonest. |
Quote:
Nash when later shown this and he basically laughed and said why let the truth get in the way of a good story. Nash is a giant bullshitter and you can poke holes in a lot of his stories. |
Bob Holly is the only honest one left

And Ole Anderson

Billy Jack Haynes also a v honest injun

I love both Cornette and Brian Last. Need to listen to more 6:05. Brian actually knows when to shut up and defer to his guest. Love him talking Japanese wrestling history with Fumi Saito.

Yeah, Cutler's inclusion makes it fairly obvious he's there to take the fall.
As I've said, a problem with AEW is the jobbers seem to work Dynamite more than a lot of the midcard/lower midcard because they are afraid to have anyone on the main roster lose except for the Cutlers, Avalons, Lee Johnson etc. A non-contracted team like the Varsity Blondes that they don't care about their record will be on Dynamite way more than Evil Uno and Stu Grayson, etc. Rankings were a cool idea to start with but it's hamstrung their booking. Like Ethan Page? Bet he'll be working Dark for a while padding his stats until they have a proper angle for him. |
Having said that the trios match will probably slap. Looking forward to it.
|
Yeah that trios match should be super fun
|
Quote:

According to the Wrestling Observer Radio, AEW holding a house show during Mania week is both for financial reasons and to give some of their talent who work mostly on Dark shows some added experience working in front of a large live crowd.
Since they've been stuck in the same general area as WWE these past months, they decided they might as well try to capitalize on the influx of fans traveling to Florida for Mania week. Quote:

I read it a 3 hour drive from Tampa to Jacksonville. That card is pretty whack tbh. I think it would be fine if there was a proper draw on top though. MJF vs Jericho or idk ... Something worth driving 3 hours for.

Most Mania weekend shows are within 30 minutes of the host city. Regardless of what the card looked like I don't think a show 3+ hours away is attempting to compete.
Most of the Mania weekend shows have attendance caps (smaller attendance than usual, obviously) so this is giving people on the other side of the state a show to go to if they can't get to any of the other Mania weekend shows. More broadly, I said something in the WWE thread about whether or not they'll get back to house shows but I think there is value for AEW or anybody else to run some house shows once the world opens. House show touring doesn't have to be a permanent thing but I think this fall the demand to go to events will be at an all-time high it makes sense to just ride the wave for a bit. |
I think AEW is really doing this for live crowd experience for all the young blood they have on the roster.

For a house show tier event, that card feels about right for it.
Doesn't look that appealing compared to some of the big indie events going on that weekend nor WWE's TakeOver and Mania events but that's not really the purpose of a house show. |
It's a solid House Show card. This was the last WWE House Show I attended. London Ontario at the John Labatt Centre in 2016.
WWE Tag Team Titles Match The New Day (Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods) (c) defeated The Wyatt Family (Erick Rowan and Braun Strowman) Sheamus defeated Sin Cara Open Challenge Apollo Crews defeated Sheamus Cesaro and Titus O'Neil defeated Social Outcasts (Curtis Axel and Bo Dallas) WWE Intercontinental Title Match Darren Young defeated The Miz (c) by disqualification Sami Zayn defeated Kevin Owens WWE Women’s Title Match Charlotte (c) defeated Natalya The Usos (Jimmy Uso and Jey Uso) defeated The Club (Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows) 3-Way Match - WWE Title Match Dean Ambrose (c) defeated AJ Styles and Seth Rollins |
That's a great house show card Gert. I don't think it's comparable to the AEW card.

You're getting your top stars in AEW, they are just in terrible match ups
Lol all I remember form that show was the main event was great and I was mad that Heath Slater wasn't on the card |
Lmfao Cesaro and Titus is such a weird fucking team that I’m into it
|
The biggest name missing from AEW’s show is Mox, he’s working Bloodsport on Thursday but they understandably don’t want to risk bringing anyone who was at the Collective to the AEW show in case there’s any sort of outbreak.

I'm watching Elevation for the first time. I'm liking Paul on commentary.

TNT is going to test airing some MMA (One Fighting Championship) post Dynamite soon to see if Dyna-fans will stick around to watch MMA.
