We have made minor adjustments to how the search bar works on ResetEra. You can read about the changes here.
Reminded me of the time Ziggler dropped the bleach and wrestled Sydal.
I actually thought all of the IC was ace in the segment.
Hardy was flubbing lines left right and center. They dropped the central point of the fight which is someone crowbarred Hardy backstage and we don't know who it is.
I actually thought Kassidy was actually pretty good on the mic and was pretty hyped. Quen was... not good. And his shit talk was limited to "I almost pinned you!" and adding Bitch to the end of a Jericho nickname. It was just flat mic work. He should have gone for a little brother stepping out of the shadows angle. Which is what they wanted, but they should have leaned in on how he didn't get a TNT title shot, and everyone backstage thinks Kassidy is the future star, but he's got news for them.
But even then, the delivery was just awkward. PP has fantastic in-ring work and in-ring storytelling and I'm super high on them, but they need to get better on the mic, and I'm sure that will happen given everyone they are around. I think it's Jungle Boys biggest shortcoming ATM too.
I know, that would be some serious hang time shit right there.
Lance Archer
Stu Grayson
Reynolds
Nick Jackson
Brian Cage
Blade
Butcher
Wardlow
Those 8 were noticeably absent yesterday.

Lance Archer, Nick Jackson, Cage, Butcher and Blade, and Grayson were the ones I noticed were obviously missing, but yeah Wardlow wasn't there either which was weird. We don't know what was taped for Dark, but if Jurrasic Express isn't there that's another noted ommission
I think they need to stop using non-contract talent that is traveling and doing Indies for a while. The less people you are mixing in the locker room, the better

Those are some pretty serious names, they're involved in a lot. Sheeit.
At this point, it's probably presumptuous to think they all have COVID because they don't always have everyone on every show. Of those, we obviously know about Archer. Grayson, Reynolds, and Nick Jackson seemingly would have shown up so they definitely stand out. But that group is definitely possible and shows how potentially widespread this was.
Another one is Christopher Daniels. That could explain why it's Scorpio and Kazarian tagging next week instead of Kazarian and Daniels.
I thought about that. I believe they already did FTR vs the Kazarian/Daniels version of SCU though, so it may be purposeful that it's Kaz/Scorpio instead since they also were the duo that were champions before.
Archer caught it at his home in Texas from a family member this past week while they were off. Jake lives in Georgia I think. There was no way Jake was in contact with Archer at that time. At least we hope so.
LOL oh man this dude is great lol, he's fast become a favorite of mine in and out of the ring.I'd encourage people to watch his match w Naito last night, was fantastic.
God no. Fuck that band! I can still remember how people wouldn't shut up about them in high school because they were from 2 towns over from me and everyone had to be "friends with Gerard".
Vince McMahon's immediate request to Luke Harper when he was called up from NXT/FCW was to ask him to talk in a southern accent.
That sounds like a special kind of hell. I was going to say "Hey, they're actually a great band!" But that's a different thing entirely and yeah I can dig being upset about that. Like me w/ REM and never wanting to hear their music again cuz everyone in GA seems to love them so I couldn't escape that shit in HS.
I laughed extremely hard and it was worth it for that. Give me that stupid shit.
Looks like AEW changed their testing procedures in response to this outbreak, wrestlers will be tested at home before they travel to Jacksonville, them again on site. Definitely taking it seriously, that's good
That's smart though not enough IMO. In theory, you could test negative at home but then pick it up in the process of traveling to Florida. Still, it does add another extra layer.
IMO the biggest difference they can make is reducing the amount of people they're bringing in for the tapings. With indies running more now, they should really cut down on the Dark matches. Maybe just keep it to a small number of indy guys/gals that they like the most.
yar i read that they actually started this a little while back. khan did it after seeing how the NFL was doing its testing and decided to ramp up its procedures as a result.
oh hah, I had read it was in response to what happened recently. Well, hopefully it helps keep everyone safe.
I hope they're going to still test day of. When you first catch it you aren't infectious. You don't test positive for the first few days. Once you test positive you're infectious, as I understand it.
So Ben could have been infected during the Dynamite taping, just not shedding virus yet.
But you could test negative day before, travel, and then be infectious and shedding day of the show. So yeah, hopefully they continue testing before people perform.

As much testing AEW does, with the way the country is handling things it's understandable that people would get it sooner or later.
All this speculation on who is missing and how they got it isn't helpful though. Everyone just needs to continue to be careful and practice mask wearing, social distancing etc...
Kaz/Daniels did wrestle FTR already, and that was a good match too. At least this time FTR can say they beat the first tag champs too.

Miro legitimately tweaked his ankle but was fine after the match, shouldn't miss any ring time.
That's good to hear he's fine. Ankles can be so hit and miss when you roll it.
they are. still doing the same testing they were doing before in addition to the home testing.
