Posted August 27, 20205 yr comment_5926929 To the undying sorrow of some terrible wrestling fans, Dynamite did not go back to its original timeslot cuz of the NBA strike
August 28, 20205 yr Author comment_5926957 Live audience being back might be highly irresponsible, but it does enhance the show
August 28, 20205 yr Author comment_5926958 Did Jericho just reference Bill Watts's pencil on commentary
August 28, 20205 yr Author comment_5926959 It would be absolutely disastrous to turn Page heel right now
August 28, 20205 yr Author comment_5926960 The 2nd match dragged long and I don't know about its finish, but the ultimate finish with Chuck's knee forcing him to tap unexpectedly was brilliant imo.

August 28, 20205 yr comment_5926963 You can tell these guys clearly missed having a live crowd again and it's noticeably improving the show.
August 28, 20205 yr Author comment_5926965 I think this stipulation is dumb and Mox still looks like a dumbass for signing it. Sure he gets to beat up a lawyer and as a lawyer I know that is a fulfilling end in itself but he still goes into his title defence with a handicap he didn't need to have.
August 28, 20205 yr comment_5926966 Ryan "thinks he still works for WWE even though his show was canceled" Satin trying to start drama on Twitter comparing video of Tony Khan asking the live crowd to not do vulgar chants on TV and asking why it doesn't get held to the same standards as WWE attempting to fully produce the fans in the Thunderdome.
August 28, 20205 yr Author comment_5926967 Tony dignifying him with a response was so unnecessary. Haha Kingston took 5 secs to get bleeped
August 28, 20205 yr Author comment_5926968 JR just called Brodie Lee world champ and messed up Evil Unos name in 10 secs
August 28, 20205 yr Author comment_5926970 Brodie v. Sky is an intriguing match. Dark Order are still dorks though. Silver is entertaining ss fuck, but the group as a whole is still a clown-group

Satin just comes across as so sad and desperate. Even though I'm not a fan, I legitimately feel sorry for the guy. It sucks losing your dream job.
August 28, 20205 yr Author comment_5926972 Wait, that is the culmination of the Elite angle? That's stupid as fuck. Everyone looks like a douche here.

August 28, 20205 yr Author comment_5926976 That was a sick match. I dunno about some of the booking directions of this episode though

Sure he gets to beat up a lawyer and as a lawyer I know that is a fulfilling end in itself but he still goes into his title defence with a handicap he didn't need to have. Um...If I remember correctly, Mox actually won his two last title defenses WITHOUT using the Paradigm Shift/Death Rider (vs Hager & vs Brodie Lee) so I don't see what the big deal is out of this. Mox clearly was more bothered by MJF bringing up Renee during the promo than actually not having to use his finisher in the match at All Out.
August 28, 20205 yr comment_5926982 Yeah I liked his line about while he *wants* to drop MJF on his head multiple times with it he doesn't *need* it to beat him. The whole story was MJF overreacting to getting punked out during his promo and thinking all he needs to do to win is take Mox's finisher away. I did like MJF mentioning he is not going to fall in the same trap others have and keep the match in the ring. Everyone's expecting this to be another crazy Mox brawl, so it would be great for MJF to pull an ECW Cactus Jack and slap on a headlock when people are expecting violence.
August 28, 20205 yr Author comment_5926988 I agree he doesn't need that move to beat MJF, but is still a needless constraint a face imposes on themselves for no good reason.
August 28, 20205 yr comment_5926992 It could be that Moxley has a submission finisher he wants to get over. Like when John Cena got booked in a submission match on Raw and debuted the STFU.
August 29, 20205 yr comment_5927036 I may have an unpopular opinion but MJF in the ring and duelling with Moxley made him look a lot worse than you’d expect. Mox still came off as the undisputed ace of the promotion while MJF still felt a couple of steps behind, even with his good, rehearsed promo. I have a feeling they’re going with Moxley retaining and then running Moxley/Archer for the title until someone comes along who feels as transcendent as Moxley. Agree that the Page stuff felt needlessly convoluted and it felt like a cheap way to protect the Bucks who have pretty much proven to be bulletproof. I know FTR are winning the belts and they’re going to the Bucks feud but still, the Bucks have enough cache where they can get their momentum back instantly. Thank god we now have Thunder Rosa, Diamanté and Ivelisse because that women’s match was something straight out of 2003 Smackdown. Sabian as Ford’s Marc Mero is perfect booking though. Britt, Nyla and the three previously mentioned feels like a division you can do something interesting with post All Out. Not to be ultra critical, I dug the 8–man and the gauntlet (Page finish aside) and liked Cardona and Sky coming to the valiant rescue a week after they should have. Cassidy just fucking sprinting at Jericho was fantastic but Sammy/Matt was AWESOME. No messing around with a slow start, just straight into violence and in that sense, maybe a TV main event was a better choice than a PPV match, just to keep it tight. Between Matt/Sammy and Best Friends/Santana and Ortiz being on TV, I have a feeling that a lot of All Out matches are going long.
