I feel like his run has been hampered by trying to not make him the main character and giving others the spotlight. The long injury times haven't helped either. His feud with Don/Will/Takeshita made him feel like a main character, but oh boy do I not care about him feuding with the Bucks or teaming with them either. The Golden Jets Vs. Young Bucks feud at the end of 2023 was like actually pissing me off lmao

Shelton Benjamin hasn’t lost a step. It’s a shame WWE wasted so much of his time doing nothing with him. I’m not super interested in a rehashed hurt business stable but I thought Shelton looked great in his debut match. M
Don’t care for the bucks or Jericho still. Both are beyond stale so I skipped their stuff on the show. Everything else was fine. Mox is doing so solid character work but I’m still struggling to get into this new group

It feels like, to me, most Kenny’s AEW run has been hampered by being connected to the Bucks. Being connected to the bucks in 2024 doesn’t help anyone, it’s the Jericho effect. Okada is essentially a comedy midcarder now and I don’t like it at all. Kenny probably doesn’t have a lot of time left wrestling and I’d rather him not waste it when he comes back by being involved with these goobers

.2 is still not great, there's basically always competition lol.
BUT, the fact that a big part of the competition that drew viewers away being the WNBA makes me really happy for female sports. I've been coaching almost entirely female youth for like fifteen years, it's nice to see them drawing real viewership, even if it's in a different sport 🙂. Sorry for the sidebar, just looked at what was crushing them besides MLB playoffs and it made me happy.

I'm 20 minutes late starting this. That intro video with Mox and Co. was fantastic. Maybe the best AEW has ever done.

I really like this "crazy" version of Adam Page. (?) Gunn diving into the timekeeper's booth looked hilarious. They didn't time it well and it looked like Gunn just kind of dove at nothing. Really good promo from Switchblade.

"Merchant's of Misery." Good stuff from MVP. Another good video package laying out the match. Benjamin and Sammy. This should be a good match but I'd like it to be less than 10 minutes and for Shelton to control most of it.

Was that a commercial promoting live events? It only took them five years!

My favorite part of this episode has been getting evidence chucky T is still working there behind the scenes 🥰.
Shelton is friggin dope.

I know a lot of people are sour on Sammy now but I still like him. I really enjoyed the spot where they were on the floor and Shelton was slamming Sammy into the ring and guard rail and then ring, guard rail etc. Looked like pure vicious offense. Superkick on Sammy when he came off the top looked NASTY. That was a really good match. The EXACT way you need to book Shelton Benjamin and this gimmick.

CRAZY THINGS go on weekly on this show and Christopher Daniels is often nowhere to be seen. A catfight between Mariah May and Anna Jay breaks and Daniels is RIGHT THERE to get in between and break it up.

Good promo from Kyle Fletcher. Very unhinged. I kind of wish he would keep his hair half shaved and maniacal looking like that. Good heat from the crowd here. I liked this.

Sammy sold his ass off and made Shelton look exactly like he should. A+ to both of them.

I didn't really like the Ricochet interview until MVP showed up. Ricochet did a good job of looking "interested" after MVP gave him the business card. I'd like to see Ricochet in the Hurt Syndicate as their "cruiserweight."

So f’n lame. Jericho has nothing left in the tank and now we gotta watch him drag down Briscoe for several more months.

Brian Cage and Lance Archer squashed 2 jobbers. Good to see. I always liked BIG MAN bad guy tag teams going back to Powers of Pain.
