AEW Dynamite |OT2| #JoinDarkOrder UP: Blood and Guts postponed/Dynamite continues live shows with no audience
- Thread starter Bronx-Man
- Start date
Yes.
He is permanently Shorty G, they don't even call him Chad Cable anymore as far as I know.
I almost wonder if Dark Order's big turnaround coincided with them starting talks with Matt (if he's on board). There was a very sudden change which resulted in DO being not shit, I just can't remember when or what that was.
They even did a whole tag team interview/segment with him talking about how he's not gonna let his height be a negative aspect of his life and he won't let it hold him back.
And he cut this promo while standing next to his tag partner, Mustafa Ali.
Who is the same. Fucking. Height.

It was so fucking smooth too.
It's insane that she's only been reffing for a couple of years
I need a GIF of it now lol, yes.....she's moved up the status ladder fast. In fact she's probably one of the best refs I've seen.
Watched Matt Hardy's video and reading between the lines he has to be The Exalted One. I think the twist here is that he won't ever be referred to as Matt Hardy and if he wants to use Broken Matt Hardy he'll do so with another promotion. I get the sense he's going to be working with at least two promotions, and that'll allow him to stretch his creativity and not have his last few years just be defined by one character.
My dream for The Dark Order is for them to structure it like a fucking Power Rangers/Super Sentai faction and embrace the camp. There's The Exalted One as the leader, hamming it up, scheming, and rarely fighting. Then you have the commanders, currently Evil Uno and Stu Grayson, being the real muscle and overseeing the lesser ranked members. Finally you have the creepers and Beaver Boys being completely useless jobbers. Also there are the monsters/one-off foes that are more powerful jobbers. I want The Dark Order being a persistent threat that mostly stays within the carny sphere of AEW and crossing over into the serious wrasslin' sphere when appropriate. Though I don't think that idea can work if there isn't a proper face faction. The Elite are currently falling apart in the serious wrasslin' sphere, but there is Jungle Express in the carny sphere.

lol the knock off the apron reaction was so priceless. Looked liked she knocked them all away
Yeah this is my realistic hope for a Hardy led Dark Order as well
Lmao that sell by Ortiz was incredible. Made me bust out laughing.
When Jericho told Vince about the AEW offer he said that he should take it, he didn't take it seriously.wwe must be like
He turned Jon Moxley into a slapstick clown with Dean Ambrose and made him hate wrestling
Vince McMahon is a fucking dumb ape
crazy to think she went from a local ref and wwe fan to the most know Ref id say in AEW.
Her favorite wrestler is Daniel bryan too, she was there for his first retirement.
Hah yeah it's pretty wild.crazy to think she went from a local ref and wwe fan to the most know Ref id say in AEW.

He's my favorite wrestler too. It breaks my heart that he's still in WWE. Just being fucking wasted.
wow lol, what a mark.crazy to think she went from a local ref and wwe fan to the most know Ref id say in AEW.

Aubrey's just the best
I mean, the crowd pops when she's announced as the referee. I really can't think many refs that get over because they're awesome on their own.
Shawn Spears, Mox and the founders the Rhodes Brothers and Jericho.
Thats basically as many as Dark Order has members.
The feed I used for Revolution fucked up during Dustin vs Hager, so I just finally watched the whole bit involving Hager's wife. Gods that was awful, sexual assault is not funny. Certainly helps explains why Dustin is okay working with Jake and feeding him his first win, despite having a transgender son. 🙃 I know that everyone working in wrestling, particularly veterans, are largely conservative. *shakes head*
Between various intervew segments involving "light" sexually harrasment of women interviewers, there's a problem within AEW.

Cody turns out to be the biggest bestest bro imaginable by taking all the heat Dustin was about to get and decided to get THAT FUCKING TATTOO and for everyone to talk about that instead.
Yes I'm still thinking about it.
At this point my jaw will drop if the exalted one isn't Matt Hardy.
Seeing as how the first part of Free the Delete's finale is called "The Preparation", they may wait until next week to fully unveil The Exalted One with just a more confirmative tease or promo at the end on Wednesday. I would like to see The Dark Order get an aesthetic overhaul including new outfits, and I don't know how long it takes to get costumes and gear made. Evil Uno and Stu Grayson could certainly use an overhaul, along with the creepers.
Between the tattoo, Cody's flop of a match, and the tag match being hot fire no one is going to be talking about a tasteless bit in an altogether bad match.

Man this one night was just an absolute torpedo stock drop for Cody in my personal perspective.
It's just baffling how bad it was with Jericho's entrance being phenomenal. I just don't know where Cody's head is at. Though being an EVP he has a lot more stress and responsibility on his plate than Jericho. I think Cody needs a nice break from performing after Revolution.
Cody's best is highly booked old school wrasslin matches, while Revolution was an overly booked old school mess
so, i was so moved by everyone singing along to @IAmJericho's theme that i decided to join in.

TK was talking about how there'll be opportunities for different types of games on different platforms/systems. So I'm guessing that while we're going to almost certainly get an AKI-produced title, we're almost certainly going to get a card (or card collecting or whatever) based game. Probably first, and that will probably have to last us a while.
Basically, something like this, but replace Sega characters with anyone in the AEW roster.
When cody was asked on the panel the other day he said they always give the fans what they want and that they want a specific game engine and that takes time so it seems guaranteed it will be the AKI engine at least.
You forgot Haggar
Right and that's why they don't need more
And Shawn Spears and Haggar aren't good signings
Someone's gotta take the pins. And we're gonna get at least the Revival.
Revolution was kinda disappointing, considering how they hyped it up and the heat going into it.
Outside of expectations though it was a good PPV.
Tag match was absolutely amazing, it had everything, it was so good I think it even affected the crowd as the only thing else they were as hot for was OC.
Banger of a match and the storytelling in the match was brilliant.
PAC vs OC was near perfect.
Cody vs MJF, I thought the match was pretty good actually, in a vacuum.
The problem was it needed to start off hot straight away and it didn't, it needed a heated crowd and there wasn't.
Ultimately it fell flat for such a heated feud.
Also Cody bb pls. Why didn't you wait to get it on your back instead of your neck.
Main event had a big fight feel, enjoyed it other than the eye reveal which just confused me, how does that benefit MOX?

lol, she was asked about her reaction and it's actually a legit one. She said herself she's an ugly crier so of course the cameras targeted her.
He could still see out of the eyepatched eye. The patch didn't cover his whole eye. Jericho attacked Moxley's "good" eye, and, thinking Mox was totally blind, overtly set up for the Judas Effect. Moxley, still being able to see out of the patched eye, was able to duck it and hit the Paradigm Shift and win.
That shot of the blood coming out was so perfect and gross lol
that gash actually looked pretty good too
That makes him look retroactively worse, he was doing rough because he only had the one eye but if he could actually see the whole time... he was just sucking.
Yup! Definitely at least that. But Tony definitely made it sound like there'll be more than one style of game based on AEW. My first thought was some other kind of fighting game but I could more easily see a F2P deck building game as a money spinner for them too. Cheaper to make as well.
I took it to be, the eye was originally injured and his vision was impaired, but at some point before Revolution, that recovered. However, he continued to wear a gimmicked eye patch that gave Jericho the illusion that he still couldn't see.
The "sitting in a dead tree" hidden message is nice touch. At this point if its not Matt I'm gonna get pissed.
The quickest solution to cover Cody's tattoo lies in his own past. ;)
This is the first time I'm seeing Cody in WWE and... there's a lot to unpack.
I should be interesting in continuing this discussion, but yes, noone on this forum likes Hager
