AEW / WWE thread - Real Fighting about Fake Fighting

RAW was really good tonight.

No clue if this is Heyman or not but I didn’t fast word past any segments.

Street Profits were fantastic.

AJ turning heel to close the night.

 

This AJ/Ricochet is exactly how the Cena feud started, is it not? That was peak AJ tho, so I ain't mad.

 

Top rope styles clash.

 

Was there no mention or teasing of Bray tonight?

 

Yeah the buzzard showed up behind Miz

Probably others came out but the buzzard was the only one I actually caught

 

big ball swingin heel AJ is back

congrats nerds, I'll stay watching until Paul inevitably burns out

 

Think that’s 2 weeks in a row Miz been in the shot for the buzzard

 

Yep and on screen he’s kinda in a holding pattern. Maybe we see Bray after Extreme Rules.

 

Think its next RAW july 8th is the anniversary of debuting the wyatt character on RAW

 

I really hope they don’t hot shot a one week angle for Extreme Rules. That’s such a Vince thing

 

Miz has done such a good job being a baby face opposite Shane. I’m curious if he can pull off the creeped out, scared baby for this angle

 

I totally missed the first hour, so I missed that they dropped a holy shit on air.

Roman was on some podcast and gave advice to other wrestlers unhappy with how WWE is using them

Spoiler

 

She’s a mix of princess and angel

 

I'm just happy my boys are getting some screen time and with heel AJ to boot.

 

I like that WWE is definitely watching AEW while wanting everyone to believe they don't care. You can't tell me the Street Profits call up isn't related to Private Party getting signed this weekend. They essentially both have the same gimmick/act, WWE beats them to get it on TV before October rolls around. Private Party looks like a knock off.

 

Talk about lack of self awareness

 

Can’t wait for the inevitable R-truth turning up in the honeymoon suite closet or something

 

Good Luchasaurus interview for those wanting more on him, dude is great. Hope he has a lot of success.

 

I think its pretty cool he and Jungle Boy are actually old friends and that isn't just a gimmick. they were at the same wrestling school when Jungle Boy was like 13.

 

Montez Ford is a star. Angelo Dawkins tries ways too hard. There's a reason he had like 10 gimmicks in NXT before latching on to Ford. It won't be long until Ford is a singles star and Dawkins is eventually future endeavored. Bel Air and Ford together will be fun to watch.

 

Commentary (Cory and Renee) felt much better. That line stood out but they also hinted at his relationship with Mella and Renee hoping Cory would get fined for just moving on after something sinister happened

Cole still sucks

 

His wife is a star. And she’s nice to look at.

 

Private party is the knock off

 

Dawkins plays a wrestler. Ford is natural. They still can have a nice run. But when they split it’s clear who the star is.

 

Ehhh. Not sure about that timeline. Truth be told neither is a knock off, they're just young black guys with bravado so everyone wants to compare.

 

Come on man, I know you love the E but you don't have to be bias in all your posts. Private Party formed as a group 2 years before them and held indy tag titles for 250+ days wrestling against the likes of The Hardys, The Dudleys, LAX, Psicosis & Super Crazy.

Street Profits didnt pop up as a thing until late 2017. Who's the knock off?

 

lol as if I’m watching any Indy garbage.

Sorry you have all the info on acts that wrestle at county park. Profits seem to be the knock off. You’re correct

 

/shrug I don't watch indy stuff either, but I try to research the guys I'm interested in to see more of what they've done.

There's a world outside of WWE, and it's not all trash wrestling.

 

Interesting card for AAA Triplemania. Looks like Lucha bros & Laredo Kid getting their win back. I'm also really curious about that Cody match, what a weird pairing with Psycho Clown and Cain Velasquez lol, didn't even know he was wrestling. Might have to tune in, but damn their shows are bad. I watched that last event and the production and sloppiness was crazy.

 

Looks like the Young Bucks vs Private Party in their potentially last indy match at House of Glory Aug. 9th.

 

Indys are all trash. Also all of my favorite wrestlers were indy stars

 

Blue Demon Jr vs Dr Wagner Jr is some legend shit, so I imagine it'll be the Mexican version of Taker/Goldberg.

 

If I made it up that point I'd probably turn it off after the Lucha/Elite match ha

 

Psycho Clown's theme is such an earworm. I watched his legendary mask vs mask match vs Wagner Jr and couldn't get that theme out of my head for days.

 

Is Psycho Clown their "ace"? think I read that. So weird. Haven't seen much of him.

 

Drake Maverick, R-Truth and Renee Michelle just putting the entirety of the WWE on their backs the last month

 

AJ gone heel? That might actually get my eyeballs on RAW now when paired with Heyman running the show.

 

Mods please ban this guy. This post is a sacrilegious hate crime.

 

Yeah, seems like they're trying to get Gallows and Anderson involved so they don't bail in a few months. I hope they don't get fucked over and buried again once they sign. They should really build up the Club. Why are they so anti faction? factions are fucking awesome. I want cross brand Club faction with heel Finn and heel AJ.

 

Going to the Dallas G1 show

It’s gonna rule

 

Sucks Mox won't be there but the card sounds awesome.

 

Time for the Bish to savior Smackdown like Herman did RAW

 

Wonder if they'll eventually get back to the brand split as Heyman/Bischoff take over and they move to Fox.

 

Have to think, Fox seems to want more than USA.

 

is this actually supposed to be a Bischoff show or are we just assuming with Paul going last night?

 

Think it was reported he was supposed to join the crew tonight.

But we shouldn't expect much until after extreme rules I think.
