Brodie makes sense, and I love that he just took the belt with him. I could legit see him winning, which I think makes it a pretty smart title match

I think the ladder match will be cool but we don’t know who’s in the ladder match and no Idea who will win it. I’m looking forward to watching mox vs lee think they will put on a great match

It'd be a great way for someone who hasn't debuted yet to create buzz and immediate credibility as a challenger. |

Brodie makes complete sense to give Moxley a credible win without beating Jericho again, and I had a feeling they would go this route, but from a kayfabe standpoint... AEW is all about wins and losses and being credible wrestling, yet Brodie has won a couple of matches against jobbers and now gets a World Title match at AEW's wrestlemania? I really wish they thought about this a little more so that they gave Brodie some major wins first. From a kayfabe standpoint MJF should have been the next challenger.

They completely dropped the ball on the Dark Order, imo. The match will be great and all, but I can't be convinced that Lee is going to have a chance at winning. It's way too early in Moxley's reign.

I honestly wouldn't be shocked if Lee's lackeys cost Mox his title. With no fans in attendance, Brodie Lee on top makes certain sense. Moxley could get his win and title back in front of a (not sold out, but decent) crowd and get a huge reaction. |

I could totally see Lee winning. Mox doesn't need the title to be a huge draw, and a heel champ like Brodie can open the door for Omega or Page, especially since PAC is stuck overseas, who I would have expected to be the one to dethrone Mox before. (Though Omega could go over Mox too given their history would make sense)

Yeah that's fair, it's just usually if a face champion is going to accept open challenges it's for episodes of television and not booking their own title match at the PPV. But WWE has done worse so.... And honestly MJF is a future World Champion but with how young and over he is, he can absolutely afford a loss to Moxley without hurting his momentum at all, especially because he has the best(?) win/loss record in AEW. It would at least make the PPV seem like a bigger deal since it's supposed to be their big show. |

Not liking the card at all for the show,and on paper looks like the weakest PPV todate.Ambrose/Harper for the title doesn't excite me at all and neither does Cody/Archer,MJF/Jungle Boy or a random Ladder match.AEW has a probably right now with to much talent and also sadly this whole RONA thing screwing everything up.Ideally the AEW Title bout would have been between Ambrose/MJF with MJF taking the title.I am assume that Tony Kahn and company are saving that bout and title change until the fans can comeback to the arenas and maybe for their big show in August.
Again nothing against Ambrose & Harper but neither guy screams main event level talent to me and pairing them up against each other for the world title just feels like a mid card bout and not a main event caliber feud and match to headline one of your only PPV's you have every year.

Darby only being champ for a short time would get MJF mega heat. |

The thing screwed everything up for everyone. The had to improv an entire month of tv, so the ppv is getting a rushed build. I'm looking forward to it, but it is a weak card so far. Fans aren't coming back for a long time, so I think they should just move forward with what they have planned. That said, it's too soon to put the title on MJF. |

I hope Darby is the first of the AEW "Elite Youth" to win it, for sure. Love the idea of MJF taking it off quickly, for mega heat. Jungleboy finally defeats MJF, and Sammy Guevara eventually dethrones him.
Ahh, briiight future for those 4 kids.

I guess that somewhat protects him from a clean loss, and it also opens up the opportunity for another promo presenting him as a ruthless leader. Say it did happen, Brodie could gather the rest of them and annihilate the one who cost him. Rip his mask off, then finish with a line like "There's no place for people like him, this imbecile blew his opportunity at an extraordinary life. Repeat his actions, and you will end up just like him." |

I love the idea of a the match, but being so close to MITB, I can imagine this gets crapall over as not being original
