    Match will be awesome. But they really need to do a better job of building some of these main roster drop downs. New Day should've been down in NXT a couple weeks ago to actually build this match. Could've had them show up the week after losing to the Uso's when they lost the longest tag title run.

    props to TK for learning from his mistakes. Only wasted 4 months featuring non AEW talent before he figured out its killing his main brand.

    Feel like they blew their wad on this Ricky MJF feud. Everybody knows MJF is going to win so why make it MJFs first feud. 6 months from now after a buildup would have been money. But hey, winter is coming.

    don't like the "You're a lesser version of (actual star)" in the promos but that showed just how head and shoulders Ricky is above Moxley, Hangman, and the rest of the babyface roster on the mic

    think you can also look at this as being a low stakes dipping of the toes in the pool before circling back down the road once they've both done their things

    Other than Hangman nothin in AEW booking gives me any faith in that outcome. People appear and then they disappear. Miro has been filming one episode of bootleg Law and Order for 6
    Months.

    fair to be skeptical of a good long term plan, but that'd be the case whether they did this quick hitter or not, might as well get a taste

    I expect Starks to lose the title match next week, win the ring match sometime after that, and then we get the rubber match at Revolution.
