i would almost rather watch a Dana brooke match than an Ishii match I can't get into these old Japanese guys who Tony is obsessed with booking either. Slow plodding I hit you and you hit me back borefests. The ones with Eddie Kingston are the worst, at least tonight had some blood to make it slightly different.

Really dug the House of Black appearance.
Did not dig putting JJ/Lethal into the tag title scene with the Acclaimed.
Really dug dropping the stupid interim tag from Hayter and retroactively awarding it to Toni as well. I think Thunder is gone for good and I could care less about her at this point.
Did not dig the follow up to Swerve/Lee
Really dug the Elite/Death Triangle. I'm really excited to see how this best of 7 plays out.

So happy we got The Elite back,at least one good thing came from this Punk/Bucks stuff. Kenny got more time to rest. Glad they using the entrance full time.
Great decision getting rid of the interim bs,now give Jamie the TBS title too
Happy for Starks but I wish they went with Ego,the Firm/MJF story was already there
HoB are back!!!! Black needs some gold,AA,trios or TNT will work. Julia is doing a great job at her role.

Remember when AEW used to start with wrestling? Yeah, I believe it did last week.

I don’t think I posted it but I bet DT go up 3-0 and Kenny and the kids come back and win 4 straight I agree. And given the Michael Jordan influence I bet we will get a "Kenny Omega in Match 6" type performance.

Loved the opening! Moxley sold the hell out of the angle and really made it feel like losing the world title meant something. Got over the angle and the importance of the world title.
I'm not a big Keith or Swerve fan so I didn't mind their small appearance but I can understand people who like them not enjoying the little follow-up.
Orange/Hager was okay. The hat gimmick was kinda funny. I'm not a big House of Black fan but their return was cool. Made them look like a threat again which they desperately needed!
Starks/Ethan was good! Really enjoy both of their work and I thought they delivered a fun match! Definitely two guys who I think will be big for the company in the future.
Enjoyed Elite/Triangle! I thought the CM Punk stuff was funny, but I can understand how people who already don't like the Elite would hate them even more. I mean if it's all anyone can talk about and you are in Chicago might as well use it for heat! I feel like the Bucks will enjoy having Chicago be their version of HBK in Canada. I definitely see Punk/FTR vs. Elite sometime next year though.
I'm glad they dropped the interim thing. I wonder what Thunder has against Toni? Put up a stink about not wanting to drop the title to her, then finally agrees to vacate it after Toni lost her's.
I like they are already setting up Britt trying to take Hayter's spotlight. It's a good reason to break them up that fits both of their characters.
Jericho/Ishii was okay! I can't believe how much Jericho was bleeding from the chops! Kinda disappointed that it's gonna be Jericho/Claudio again, I'm assuming, at Final Battle. Was really hoping for a new challenger. Feels like he has fought Claudio a lot already.

I just get the feeling they’re going for that point where every match the elite have is their last chance at the gold they had to give up

So Meltzer is saying that according to basically all the info that AEW was given there is no reason Thunder Rosa shouldn’t be back by now. Which is why they stripped her of the belt. The plan was to have Toni vs Thunder at Full Gear but once that became apparent that Thunder wasn’t gonna be back they changed course.

I don't think it had anything to do with Toni. My honest guess is Thunder never returns to AEW and heads straight to WWE when her contract expires. My hunch, is that TK just gave her an ultimatum and a chance to save face by 'mutually' agreeing to vacate the title, and that he was basically firing her. That's 2 for 2 for Ivelisse now, and both times it's cost her a job.

Thanks to whoever merged my thread into this one!
Minor spoiler for Rampage, but Dante seemed to be hurt after the Top Flight/FTR match. He finished the match, but needed to be helped to the back. Rampage was decent btw.
Anyways, that Elite/Death Triangle 2 was great. All the CM Punk spots were great, crowd was insane with dueling Punk chants. They're leaning so hard into the CM Punk thing now that it makes me think we'll see him back and they'll end up working into a storyline. Or maybe he won't be back and all these spots are just a huge FU to Punk. Guess we'll see. Ishii Vs. Jericho was great as well. I could see it coming across boring on TV, but in person it was cool. They had to thrown at least 60 chops between both guys. Also, I wanna say Jericho cut his own chest open. I saw him slip his hand under the ring apron and I think he threw the blade under there. Great show, I'm gonna go to next week's show too, since it's even closer than Chicago.
Edit: I JUST FOUND I MISSED MAKI ITOH AND KONOSUKE ON THE DARK ELEVATION TAPINGS DAMMIT MAN

After Dynamite I’m fearing more than ever that BM Phil will be back. Whether intended or not I feel like after the injury is healed they’re going to go back to the table and decide whether or not to to business. They’re still selling his merch at full price instead of on clearance for a reason, and I suspect that reason is that TK hopes cooler heads prevail.

I feel like he doesn't have any actual sources when he reports stuff. It could be true! Could not be! I doubt we will know, at least, for a long while.

Alvarez is a doofus. I’d believe every word Dave says before I’d listen to him.
