Boss Rock

Just less than 24 hours until it's time for the Adam Page prayer circle.

Thanks!

Would someone be able to provide a rundown of Muto's best matches?

There's a ton of him I haven't seen, but I like what I've seen circa 2017-2019. 2019 in particular he had a strong argument for BITW.

I think it's very much a case of does the good outweigh the bad and by how much. Cena is an interesting case to me because while I think this current run has been terrible, it's only been a couple months out of a twenty year-plus career. However, during those twenty-plus years, he's had a lot of bad matches surrounding some genuinely excellent performances. So while those excellent performances are enough to warrant a spot on my list (as of now), those bad stretches will keep him from ranking high.

Blake Monroe's first few weeks have been especially puzzling.

I think his AEW and NJPW stuff has been much better than when he was in DDT. I'm not quite sure there's enough for a spot, but time will tell.

https://x.com/AEW_Blog/status/1940479130119856426 FWIW Fightful claiming there's been no word internally that Britt is actively looking to leave. That being said, I don't think there's really much value to keep her around anyway. Division as a whole has passed her by and Toni and Mercedes are the clear top stars for them now.

Punk officially apologized for the blood money tweet at the presser. Good Lord, I know wrestlers are hypocrites but holy crap.

Joe would've likely made my list regardless, but I honestly think his AEW run helps his case quite a bit. No, he's not 2005 Joe but he seems much more energized compared to his largely lackluster WWE run.

A.J. is still in good position to make my top 15, but what are A.J's best 2020's matches? I know the Bryan IC title match during the pandemic is great, but I've been out of the loop on recent great WWE matches for a while.

Reading some of the results from Dominion and yikes, this House of Torture thing just won't stop.

I thought it was a fine enough match but could not believe how much time they got. Multiple times said "This is STILL going on?"

Hell of a show. Not just easily the best show of the year thus far, but also one of the best AEW shows ever.

Agreed that both are at fault. Rock forced the throwing of a curve ball despite having no intention to remain involved or add anything to it when it desperately needed him. But H also just let Cena show up at his leisure, cut the same "You have been awful to me" promo the times he actually bothered to show up, and didn't try to salvage the angle when it clearly wasn't working.

So the options were to either not charge hundreds of dollars for tickets and build a better card, or entirely screw up their plans for Wrestlemania. They chose poorly.

When even the Rock can't be bothered to show up.

An unremarkable main event to close out a largely unremarkable Wrestlemania.

I hated it because instead of trying to get revenge and attack the guy who brutalized him and his brother he just...cut a promo about how he was going to win for his family. And it didn't make sense to me for Gunther to sell it. He's gotten the better of Jey almost every single time.

That Jey-Gunther segment was atrocious.

The stubbornness to try and see this through is really frustrating. Considering AEW has managed to change course when things weren't working in the past, it boggles my mind that they didn't learn their lesson from Revolution.

Thanks!

Are any of these matches online?

So much for Finlay leaving NJPW. Wouldn't be surprised if he wins it at Sakura Genesis.

Apparently Scott was throwing legit punches at Cody.
