I assume Shida is going to face Storm next. Whoever it is though should bring friends with them. The Outcasts have cheated in like every match.

How dare anyone boo Dark Order

[-] TellumSiege@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

Great match. I didn't see the low blow coming at all.

[-] Travon333@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah I mean I guess their heel, but Dark Order seems like massive assholes in all of this.

Inserted themselves into the BCC feud even Hangman asked them not too. Got systematically taken out and never helped after that, then proceeds to essentially align themselves with the BCC.

[-] TellumSiege@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

It's hard to tell what they are. You make some good points but for some reason I still saw them as a face in that match. That's why the low blow surprised me. It'll be interesting to see what they do with this win, though. Are they actually going to move up the card? Challenge for the trios belts?

[-] Montagge@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

HoB vs DO? I wouldn't who to cheer for or what to do with my hands!

[-] TellumSiege@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

When it comes to hand placement my rule is simple: In a public space? Keep them above the waist! But when alone let 'em roam

And I'd like Dark Order's chances better if they had their own spooky witch.

If only Yuka had said yes and agreed to join them, we could have had witch vs genie!

Lol yeah, it was kind of a shades of Grey story but they also let their "friend" get stabbed with a screwdriver and did nothing soo firmly assholes in my book.

[-] TellumSiege@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

Shades of grey is a great way of putting it. It really does seem like DO is getting sick of their comedy rep and trying to become more serious. And if they have to low blow someone to start getting people's respect, then so be it (speaking from their pov).

Honestly, the more I think about it the more I like it.

I don't personally keep up with RoH but on RoH I think they lost Stu who got recruited by another stable called The Righteous(also a cult). So it's understandable why they're angry.

I've noticed alot of AEW stories do have nuance and callbacks, but not everyone cares about every wrestler the same which makes it hard to notice some of the smaller things.

The Wednesday commentary team also seem to focus a bit less on some of the emotions of the story. Excalibur is probably the most knowledgeable but I think he already has alot on his plate.

Great match to kick off the show!

[-] TellumSiege@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

I can't tell if Statlander looked like she was from the future or from the 80's.

That meteora on Big Bill was badass

[-] Montagge@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

Big Bill didn't even need to jump to do that lariat

[-] Montagge@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

Statlander looking like the newest member of daft punk

[-] TellumSiege@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

I'm going to be pretty disappointed if Jeff Jarrett and Daniel Garcia don't strut and dance at the same time.

[-] serfraser@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

Crazy cool visor aside, Stat was pushing some pretty weak catchphrases in that promo. When she first returned she shouted "Momma's home!" and everyone loved it. Those t-shirts sell themselves, Kris! Fits with the whole More than a Woman thing too.

[-] TellumSiege@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Completely agree on the catchphrases. That "Stat is where it's at!" line didn't work for me.
