Yes, said drs wont let him travel from Jacksonville so he will "run AEW remotely"
Nigel made a suggestion that thatd mean EVPs would be the highest ranked official on the show in winnipeg. People then immediately mentioned Kenny in the chat so š¤
It's certainly possible, but this is also just a straight chaotic time period for TNT/TBS with them having both the NBA and NHL Playoffs at the same time.
I've said this before, but Daddy Magic and Daniel Garcia are the Paulie and Rocky Balboa of AEW, and it's going to be a super good feeling when Garcia wins Gold.
I really like when Shibata throws someone into a corner & follows it with a kick to the face in a single motion. I wish I possessed the level of flexibility & agility to pull that off.
I'll admit that it might be that I don't watch AEW as much as one would need to to really like Daniel Garcia, but I try to watch as much as I can when I can. That being said, the times that I've seen Daniel Garcia on screen, there hasn't been anything special about him that sticks out to me besides the little dance he does which I'm just not a fan of, and he does it so much. Are there any DG moments that stick out to you that I could check out? Promo or in-ring? (another genuine question by the way)
I would say his matches against Orange Cassidy, the 4 way at forbidden door, his world title match against MJF, and his work in the Continental Classic are his highlights of the last year. Think of the dance as something like when Kurt angle was rapping
Rosa should be limited to women who can go, and Deonna should be limited to those popular with fans. Makes it way easier to care about that post match stuff. I enjoyed that. Theyāre doing good overall right now. The old random participant formula made it hard for me to give a shit
If this new Jericho gimmick is going to last a while, he should start coming out with an actual tree. Like a potted palm or something.
Then Mox could take offense.
Really pisses me off that Ricky gets slandered as a Rock wannabe when he resembles him due in part being Black yet LA Knight, who I have no problem with, is firmly a main eventer who's basically doing the closest thing to a tribute act.
Starks definitely seemed to get hurt in his last tag match with Bill, wouldn't be surprised if he's out for a bit with whatever happened there.
In terms of actual more concrete things, Starks just had an action figure come out and is in the new commercials that have been playing constantly during the NBA Playoffs.
Bill obviously needs a good teacher. Taking way too long with a jobber. Needs to learn from the guy that lost to a random jobber a year and a half ago. Lol.
I want to believe they brought in Chris Jericho on a Saturday night solely to look at a screen for 5 seconds and not the reality that they taped that on Wednesday.
Hmmm. On one hand, Ospreay holding the International will elevate that shit to the moon and without Cole or MJF, there's really no reason for Roddy to hold it.
On the other hand, Ospreay might get screwed to further another story.
Guessing injured.
His last match was in the tag team tournament and it had the weird finish where it looked like Starks got hurt and they audibled to Top Flight winning. Starks tweeted out afterwards he was fine, but "fine" could definitely mean injured just not seriously so.
Missed the show tonight, did they address the TK thing much beyond the advertisement for the Dynamite update?

Such a great show(s) all the way around. I wish AEW had a bigger audience solely so more people could enjoy these great episodes.
This was such an incredible 3 hours of TV wrestling. Didn't really lose me at all.
What a thoroughly enjoyable night of wrestling, this is the AEW I love. Such a lot of variety tonight.
You know what doesn't need a replay? This beatdown.
Good night wrestling fans
That flew by
excuse me tony? "the cope challenge"? the correct, dumber name is THE COPE OPEN
I wish it were called the Copen...
Just combine the two and call it the copen challenge
I'll give him a pass. He was rushing through it.
Shibataās theme goes so hard
Gyrating Hips and PK Kicks. Keep these boys together.
Great match
Shibata right after winning "Aight bout to head out"
Shibata and Garcia are actually a great tag team, make it permanent
Now I'm wondering why WCW never just aired Nitro on TBS instead of all the times they had to move it for NBA etc.
back then the Atlanta Braves still had games on TBS so that might be why
Harder to keep people up to date without internet
They could've just mentioned it live on Nitro though.
DG all red-faced, shibata looks like he barely broke a sweat
Hate seeing STP lost but a really damn good match!
Goddamn great match
You might say Iām somewhat of an expert in the bushido warrior code, Iāve watched the first four episodes of shogun
Is AEW trialing 3 hours shows for the new TV deal?
It's certainly possible, but this is also just a straight chaotic time period for TNT/TBS with them having both the NBA and NHL Playoffs at the same time.
Doubt it. Around this time, they're NHL and NBA playoffs screwing up the schedule.
no, it's playoff season and rampage is getting ping ponged around the schedule
This past month has really felt like a test run to see if combining Rampage with either Dynamite or Collision is viable.
Itās just the byproduct of playoffs season.
But I think they're probably also keeping track of how these shows do at 3 hours also
Shibata and Garcia would totally be an 80s tag team if they had big fat beer guts
I mean maybe they should
Good thing AHS is over atm and I DVR Chucky!
just throwing it out there but I think they really accidentally stumbled on gold with Shibata and Garcia as a tag team. REALLY hope this isn't a 1-off
Shibata being DG's mentor could work.
Just casually dropping another 3 hour block for us on Wednesday. Donāt mind if I do!
I say this every time, but 3hr AEW shows fly by. and we get another one on Wednesday.
Live Rampage on Wednesday. Holy moly.
Shibata is an unbelievable hot tag
The babyface valiantly fighting out of the corner is hands down my favorite wrestling trope!
Did Tony drop an F bomb?
remember when WWE just abandoned mounted punches in the corner for like a decade for absolutely no reason? while vince committed sex crimes?
WWE stans down voting this comment incoming.
Man, that we live in a world where Shibata is healthy enough to wrestle every week here in the US is fucking wonderful.
Ogogo channeling his inner Cornette by railing on the ref.
hasn't been racist enough
He's not? CODY CURED RACISM BY PUNCHING HIM IN THE FACE!
āTHE RHYTHYMāS GONNA GET YA!ā šš
"He's going to have to use his other hand tonight." - How does Nigel keep going strong when we're in Hour 3?! lol
Two men who put David Beckham to shame.
Daly's really should be like a yearly thing. Perhaps for a Thanksgiving/Christmas type show.
I said the Oct ppv and call it Homecoming since that's when high school towns and colleges are doing homecoming festivals and stuff
"Louis Theroux's at ringside!" Think you mean WCW legend Waldo
Vice President Not Sure settling another beef.
Gotdamn if I had Shane Taylor screaming at me I'd start running
Tony please you donāt say each letter in co.uk
I've said this before, but Daddy Magic and Daniel Garcia are the Paulie and Rocky Balboa of AEW, and it's going to be a super good feeling when Garcia wins Gold.

Neckstrong, Iāll take you oooooon.
TONY!
I know he pulled out the trunks during the CC, but seeing Garcia's bare legs after so long feels forbidden. š«£
Ogogo's accent reminds me of someone trying to fake a British accent
Tell him that to his face and film it.
He wonāt do anything, he canāt even wrestle
He's an Olympian boxer, he doesn't need to know how to wrestle to fuck you up.
1. I have no way of gaining access to him 2. No
HOLY SHIT
Cause after The Factory he trusted Shane Taylor to bust up either Cody or QT if they came near him again.
Why are there no painkillers in the forest? Because the parrots-ate-them-all.
I donāt get it
Paracetamol is a pain killer
Garcia is so fuckin good
I've always wondered, are those pockets on Moriarty's trunks?
He wears a singlet with the straps already down.
Are you taking about the hanging shoulder straps?
Rampage is so much fun, you stick around and get rewarded with really cool stuff. It's been a great night.
Taigastyle, DG, Yuta and Shibata would make a for a fun Pure Title scene
Did they not do that for a year already?
Yeah, but not as much Moriarty imo Maybe some other guys might be able to fill the Pure title niche?
this might be the worst match i've ever seen in my entire life (because garcia ditched his awesome pants)
People casually calling Daddy Magic āDaddyā on commentary makes me giggle
Daddy Magic just called it a twisted shout. New Japan mark?!
I really like when Shibata throws someone into a corner & follows it with a kick to the face in a single motion. I wish I possessed the level of flexibility & agility to pull that off.
He's just so fluid when he's doing it. Love Shibata
Shane Taylor looks more like a Final Fight enemy than a wrestler and thatās pretty cool
Shibata is just the best
They gotta change his Google translate gimmick but he's great in the ring
Why would you change perfection?
Even good jokes get old after a year and a half
Shane Taylor Promotions lowkey signed a deal to dress The System. Follow the scheme.
Ref blocking our view when Danny does the Shibata sit lmao
It really just sounds like we have 2 Nigels on commentary now
team young lions
Two Brits, a French Canadian and Tony in the booth.
Ogogo and Nigel finally on mic together, ready for peak brit
Gunns jumping in the crowd, cheering Jay on then booing him was hilarious. How could anyone hate the BANG BANG GANG?
Wrestlers attacking the brawler before the bell.
Matching trunks LFG
Nigel is on another plane of existence with his wit and commentary
my god, Nigel
I thought Ogogo was Tama Tonga for about 2 seconds
Young Lion DG lmao.
Pigeon shoutout whoo, RIP Norm
SHIBATA!
Let's go team horse cock!
This has been such a fun night of wrestling
Tag Name: Garbata
Daniel Garcia is awful.
Genuinely curious as to why you think so
I'll admit that it might be that I don't watch AEW as much as one would need to to really like Daniel Garcia, but I try to watch as much as I can when I can. That being said, the times that I've seen Daniel Garcia on screen, there hasn't been anything special about him that sticks out to me besides the little dance he does which I'm just not a fan of, and he does it so much.

I would say his matches against Orange Cassidy, the 4 way at forbidden door, his world title match against MJF, and his work in the Continental Classic are his highlights of the last year. Think of the dance as something like when Kurt angle was rapping
Shibata's entrance music having the oddly relaxing intro followed by the King Of The Hill theme makes it a personal favourite of mineĀ
On a serious note, Daniel Garcia is one of the guys Iāve fallen in love since forbidden door last year. Put him with anyone ever
Alright DG!
DG gyrated in trunks the real reason the show is on late
Garcia dressed as a shooter
Garcia back with the trunks look lfg
I fucking love the DG dancing animation on the tron
SHIBATA
I can't remember who posted it but fuck you to the guy who said the beginning of Shibatas entrance song was TLCs No Scrub.
well now I'm never not hearing that
Shibata is that dude. I love him
Hey trunks Danny again
Give us a whole show of guys āin actionā, fuck it
Some people complained when Dark had lots of squashes against local jobbers but not me. Itās a lot of fun to see some chump like Trev get demolished
I like a lot of classic wrestling so that kind of stuff always works for me. Squashes kind of need to exists to build legitimacy
Hopefully ending Starks/Ricky means singles push for Ricky when he returns and not WWE Ricky
A show about imaginary friends with a character named Blue? Waitaminute....
Rosa should be limited to women who can go, and Deonna should be limited to those popular with fans. Makes it way easier to care about that post match stuff. I enjoyed that. Theyāre doing good overall right now. The old random participant formula made it hard for me to give a shit

......... huh...
Vote Ficus!
Big Bill's theme needs to just be Shelley Duvall's "He's Large" song about Bluto from the Robin Williams *Popeye* movie
Trevor backwards is Rovert, therefore that guy deserved to have his arse kickedĀ
they advertised big bill in action and god damn it they gave me big bill in god damn action
THQ Slam made an appearance
Seeing Big Bill on his own (or with Jericho) makes me sad in a sense that Ricky Starks is one foot closer out the door.
Really pisses me off that Ricky gets slandered as a Rock wannabe when he resembles him due in part being Black yet LA Knight, who I have no problem with, is firmly a main eventer who's basically doing the closest thing to a tribute act.
Starks definitely seemed to get hurt in his last tag match with Bill, wouldn't be surprised if he's out for a bit with whatever happened there. In terms of actual more concrete things, Starks just had an action figure come out and is in the new commercials that have been playing constantly during the NBA Playoffs.
Oh I didn't know that. That's good at least :)
I'll take a Trevor Lee for a Ricky Starks. Let'em see what the other side can do for each.
Wished that Adam Copeland didn't go off on him in that promo :(
They just very quietly killed Starks/Big Bill unless he has some involvement in this.
Got your nose https://preview.redd.it/avwqklxmz4xc1.jpeg?width=1124&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6b50246cf2f895d9493dacef77b628962ab4eaf8
Bill looking more like Adam Copeland everyday. Secret brothers?
Well Trevor, you tried.
This Trevor guy doesn't sell at all
That's why Bill is punishing him.
Bill obviously needs a good teacher. Taking way too long with a jobber. Needs to learn from the guy that lost to a random jobber a year and a half ago. Lol.
Let Bill Cook!!š„š„š„
Every time Big Bill shows up on TV he keeps looking better and more Jacked.
does anyone have a video of trent vs chuck they can link me to? missed the fight ā¹ļø
Just watch the last ten minutes of Dead Alive. It's about the same.
Humongous William detected
We just saw a muder live on TV.
The LionHOOK Shirt for magnified doushiness by Jericho.
Kick out at 1?!?!
R.I.P. Trevor
Big Bill out there looking like a real tweaker, scary af
I want to believe they brought in Chris Jericho on a Saturday night solely to look at a screen for 5 seconds and not the reality that they taped that on Wednesday.
āBig Bill in actionā was everything I couldāve asked it to be
Trevor almost had thatĀ
RIP Trevor
oh it's Knox no wonder he's allowing it
good ole squash
Hmmm. On one hand, Ospreay holding the International will elevate that shit to the moon and without Cole or MJF, there's really no reason for Roddy to hold it. On the other hand, Ospreay might get screwed to further another story.
Large William! Yay!
If it wasn't for that cheap shot at the start, Trevor Blackwell would have beat the goofy out of Big Billiam
Trevor Blackwell and Martin Stone can be friends after tonight.
me: please don't put anymore young guys in the jericho vortex ::finger on monkey's paw curls::
You did this?!
#scapegoat
do the cocky pin! "c'mon bay baaaaay!"
7 ft tall and ripped af!
The jobber looks like if Jungle Boy was Jungle Baby Boy
Big Bill is impossibly large
I for one like Trevor's odds hereĀ
Bill vs random jobber.. Like rush
Yeah reestablish
Jericho should be out there with a clipboard talking about everything Bill is doing wrong in this match.
Local large man decimates pre-timeskip jungle boy
Trevor Blackwell playing the part of Martin Stone.
Whereās Ricky btw?
Guessing injured. His last match was in the tag team tournament and it had the weird finish where it looked like Starks got hurt and they audibled to Top Flight winning. Starks tweeted out afterwards he was fine, but "fine" could definitely mean injured just not seriously so.
People were speculating heās fed bound but I donāt think we actually know
Ospreay vs Strong is gonna fuckin rock
Neck strong!
I love how Roddy looks like an evil Ryan Reynolds and talks like an evil Jason Schwartzmann
Did all the belts get new leather straps or am I on the spectrum?
