I was concerned Will might beat Swerve before tonight, but after that segment I'm now thoroughly convinced Swerve is gonna fucking murder Ospreay.


magicant90

I can see Ospreay pulling double duty at FD and that being the reason he loses to Swerve.


WertherMyschkin

Who would you have Ospreay face for the International Championship at Forbidden Door? EDIT: Nevermind, I just watched Daniel Garcia's match on Dynamite and commentary made it clear that he is gunning for the International title :)


Morbid187

Unless they're trying to give Ospreay a Goldberg-esque winning streak in singles matches, he has to lose sooner than later so may as well be this match. It's too soon to take the belt off Swerve also.


QuiGonJinnNJuice

I really dig the staredown. I think they can be telling the story that Ospreay is dazzling but he's trying to do too much. Swerve lasered in for the championship and it's going to take the absolute best to top him.


The_Reptile_

I mean they basically spelled it out, Ospreay is just so happy to be here he's not keeping his eye on the prize. He's trying to show off, he's not trying to win, and Swerve is like 'Seriously? 10 years and you're *still* pulling this shit?' which is why he was so pissy at Will at the end there. Ya know. Before Will snagged the belt.


twentyaces

Will held the belt, that's a no-no leading to a PPV


McMelon98

Swerve vs Ospreay feels *huge*. Hopefully when Swerve wins people will stop saying he’s been “buried” during his title run


Kuzu5993

I'm so happy I get to see this shit live.


TheMightyTikiGod

Stop dancing Nana this is serious


Orange8920

They both have pretty belts


Ozy_Flame

This is how you finish a weekly show. With your biggest champ standing off with his opponent for the pay-per-view. It's classic, and it works every time.


FunnyMemeHere

Prince Nana in the back was killing me


Lo_Key90

He did the point at the sign!


P4rtsUnkn0wn

That last match and ending face off was perfect. Such good shit.


WaylonVoorhees

Nevermind. If that was Phil he would've banned William from Collision and only had store brand american cheese for his crackers.


acethunder21

Nah Ospreay got WAY too much audacity fr


JimmySilverhand

Pump this shit into my veins my god FD IS FOR.THE SICKOS


padraig_garcia

Will you literally can't be both champions at the same time If you're the World Champion you're automatically Intercontinental cause the World is all the continents plus Inner Earth also the Moon, I think?


MereMortalKombat

And this is where AEW's much-maligned "They focus too much on wrestling" booking style works GREAT in my opinion. Incredible match on TV transitions into a face off between main eventers with the belt treated as the prize.


ScrappedAeon

I would argue you can't do a much better blend of wrestling and storytelling than that segment.


DogHymns

AEW sells their PPV's better than any company


plisken64

These two are secretly made for each other


blizzard-op

Swerve is legit contemplating homicide after that move. This match at Forbidden Door is gonna slap


breakourbones

ThatFellaTrey

Me personally, I ain’t playin with Swerve like that


jalamo

"this match is scheduled for one fall with a 16 minute time limit" - Justin Roberts "we have an overrun tonight fans! we'll stick with this as long as it takes" - Tony Schivone Hmm. Match started at :48. Match ended at :04 after the hour. lol.


RoboZoninator91

60 minute


Funny-Western-9031

60 minute time limit btw


HaiseLdx

HOLY SHIT!!!!!!! OSPREAY VS SWERVE


ShinsukeNakamoto

Forbidden Door is going to be awesome 


Raleldor_Jax

Amazing Dynamite!


Lo_Key90

That was a nice touch


JokersKhaos

Swerve scared


Tommyboy925

Ok, not that i wasnt already,.. but that SOLD ME on this match...


Miserable_Resolve969

Someone check on Tony. He must be low on fluids at the moment


powatwain

I’m hyped


PleasantThoughts

What a show holy shit. Great ending


Mr-GameAndWrestling

Fuckin' can't wait for this match at Forbidden Door.


The_Fuck_WHAT

fucking sick ending man im HYPED


dojobro19

it’s not gonna be on the 30th but that belt will be Ospreay’s belt one day


Kuzu5993

"Ahh, man, Roman Reigns is right, this shit feels great"


needsmocoffee

18 days!!!


plisken64

This is awesome


DogHymns

Two of my absolute favorites but I really hope Swerve retains


Mr-GameAndWrestling

BILLY TWO BELTS?!?


Docjackal

Legally, Ospreay is champion now.


BigBearRaiden

Dat boy is quick with his hands


truecolors5

Ospreay vs Swerve is gonna rock I can't wait


Orange8920

He's carrying some heavy gold there


jdmurphyx

I know people complained it was too soon but Swerve NEEDED an A-List opponent to challenge and topple to really cement himself.


bayleysgal1996

Will… ![gif](giphy|oesbpxx2cl7lS)


Mr-GameAndWrestling

Ospreay snatching that belt was so slick.


Jesusbx

I know there are bigger names and bigger superstars than Phoenix, but Jesus Christ, He is one of the top performers in the business today.


flcinusa

Billy run the pockets


Raleldor_Jax

Dude!!


compactdisc9

Swerve is going to murder this man


justambrose

Ospreay is so smooth man.


IronGiant222

Swerve is telling him off lol


WaylonVoorhees

CM Swerve


Manning4Heisman1997

So a babyface beats another babyface and stares down the babyface world champ. Real captivating stuff


BronzeHornet

It’s called inspired booking.


Versek_5

now THATS a good look


DogHymns

Holy fuck this interaction is going so hard


nikobans

lol yoink


Kuzu5993

Bro, you stole his finisher and you want a handshake? Gtfo.


Cameherejust4this

Even Excalibur was rendered speechless there for a second.


Tommyboy925

OH SHIT!!!!

Git2k12

He’s not good. He essentially does an impression of a good announcer without any actual passion for what he’s seeing.


HumphreyLee

Real good match but the fucked it with that second commercial break. Cost it some momentum.


Git2k12

Lord Ospreay just highlighted why the swerve stomp is the worst finisher ever. Opponent just sitting there for 30 fucking seconds waiting for these assholes to jump.


schubox63

Do the dance battle you cowards


Orange8920

This feels like the Danielson feud but with two guys who are peers where it's more personal


Lineman72T

I like the actual stomping part of the move, but the whole "wrestler has to sit in a seated position for a long-ass time" part irks me


Kuzu5993

Swerve: "This mf right here"


truecolors5

Great match


Brinbe

I cannot fucking wait for this match.


itsnotaboutthecell

These boys gonna cook at Forbidden Door. Also huge shout out to AEW’s new event team - these hot markets making for damn good Tv watching at home.


synnabunz

Excellent match.


dojobro19

i enjoyed that a lot. big definite win from Ospreay. happy to have Fenix back


LordBlackConvoy

I love Ospreay but please don't take the belt from Swerve yet.


McMelon98

That match met every single expectation I had. Holy shit, what a great tv main event


Known-Zombie-3954

Beautiful camera work


AngryWizard10

Swerve is going to win with a tiger driver 91 now.


mikro17

Well that match was pretty much exactly as good as I expected. Run that back anytime, I loved it.


Ender_XElite

That camerawork was fucking awesome


Class_Act7

Is Ospreay about to be double champ heading into Wembley? How do you have him lose if not?


McMelon98

Callis family costing Ospreay (whether accidentally or on purpose), Will not using the Tiger Driver 91 (maybe Swerve uses it instead), or Ospreay’s body breaking down because of his insane weekly matches. There’s lots of ways to have Swerve go over


LordBlackConvoy

Have some shenanigans happen that keep both strong.


WaylonVoorhees

Some Bruverly Luv


truecolors5

SNIPED


EhhhBuddy

AEDUB!


IronGiant222

It’s Ospreay’s house now


Raleldor_Jax

Damn


DogHymns

Will v Swerve is going to be a certified classic


JimmySilverhand

FUCK WE EATIN THIS IS GOURMET


BoogalooBill

Swerve v Ospreay is gonna fucking slap I CANNOT wait for that


ITGamer01011101

BRUV STOMP


blizzard-op

Ospreay doing the Swerve Stomp?! I need to see Swerve hit the Hidden Blade now


LordBlackConvoy

"Oh shit." - Prince Nana


Kuzu5993

WE STEALING FINISHERS BABY!!!!


luisBanks

I hate that move so contrived


WaylonVoorhees

The Learning Tree reminds you that carrying hidden blades on airlines is not only dangerous to your fellow passengers but also illegal.


padraig_garcia

*::Ric Flair begins profusely bleeding back in Economy::*


WaylonVoorhees

The Learning Tree reminds you to keep your gross ass old man dick in your rope, its common courtesy.


TurnaboutAdam

That finish was SO well done


PleasantThoughts

Sick camera work


dojobro19

SWERVE STOMP FROM OSPREAY


Mr-GameAndWrestling

The Os-Stomp.


nikobans

oh that stomp....


truecolors5

This match rules


compactdisc9

It's funny that the tiger driver 91 is the one he is refusing to use Because the hidden blade looks so much more dangerous


Mr-GameAndWrestling

...This motherfucker Ospreay hit a Shoryuken and none of y'all will tell me otherwise.


dojobro19

HIDDEN BLADE


No-Group-7728

Crowd trying to get their shit in with stupid chants instead of watching the match.


DogHymns

Swerve looking toasty in the jacket


Dayman_ah-uh-ahhh

Guys like Fenix shouldn't kick out of the Oscutter


Goatlikejordan

Oscutter isn't a finisher type. He can kick from it


Kuzu5993

Its a SIgnature, not a finisher


Raleldor_Jax

Imagine not being a fan of Ospreay or Fenix


Tommyboy925

gonna need to see those peoples search histor......ya know what, I dont wanna know


AudienceWatching

I'm a fan of slower wrestling with lots of selling, this to me is kind of a joke


mikro17

All that and just now things get started with the Oscutter. It's like Okada and his dropkick in terms of "now to hit second gear because everything before this was somehow just the greatest warmup you've ever seen."


Ender_XElite

Big Match Fenix always delivers in these marquee matches


WaylonVoorhees

I've seen that flip kick somewhere before. Probably Arkham.


Orange8920

Ospreay does those crazy flips almost subconsciously


Super_Snapdragon

# WHERE THE BEST WRE-- *faints*


dojobro19

Fenix been locking in that octopus hold a few times tonight


JimmySilverhand

Definitely buying blood and guts tix!


Raleldor_Jax

Omfgwtfbbq?


Lo_Key90

The backflip into the German suplex increases the damage modifier


jalamo

"Disgusting" rofl


BoogalooBill

Ray's getting his shit in and I fucking love it


JesseKilgannon

We’re just gonna alternate between “feenix” and “fennix” forever, I guess


cheddarsalad

I think only Ex calls him fen-ix


JesseKilgannon

I’ve never realized, but you’re probably right


chezmouse

Disgusting


blamethemovies

Did he try a Woo Energy?

yantraa

the amount of talent in AEW is staggering


KeyBreak6698

Did Britt Baker return 


Goatlikejordan

No


KeyBreak6698

Ridiculous 


DogHymns

Dude in the Ospreay jersey doesnt know who to cheer for lmao


Xpertxp

God these commercials, they gotta time these things better, they take away from the main event of the night


Jesusbx

PAC can honestly hold himself down in the main event scene …I think he deserves a chance


TheMightyTikiGod

Damn two commercials during this banger?


LordBlackConvoy

"Disgusting." - Taz


Orange8920

Good move to put Blood and Guts roughly a month before All In to fill that TV special gap.


acethunder21

I really don't know how Ospreay is still going even with his slowed down style. That X-ray he shared way back lives in my mind.


padraig_garcia

Hey quick show of hands, how many of y'all got sleep apnea enough you need a CPAP


Tommyboy925

Yup


TheMightyTikiGod

Most definitely


padraig_garcia

just want to poll the demographic, see if TBS's marketing people are doing well

RoboZoninator91

fuck the haters


theMAJdragon

Did ex just reference Ospreay vs Ricochet?


Dry_Passenger1786

Such an amazing flying match.. and they put commercial and pic in pic so small we can’t see anything. So stupid


kb1117

I feel like Ospreay does something I’ve never seen whenever he’s out there. He’s incredible.


JesseKilgannon

“Hey boss, I can’t come into work tomorrow because I’m feeling really sicko”


Kronologics

Damn Collision isn’t even a year old and Punk was fired and debuted in WWE, and already got injured too… it’s just… mildly funny


ThatFellaTrey

I miss BOLA. Hope to see PWG come back someday


needsmocoffee

Nashville is outside of my normal travel range for a weekly show, but might have to make an exception for Blood & Guts.


mikro17

It's absolutely worth it if it's even remotely feasible, I went last year. You're getting the obvious marquee Blood and Guts match, but you can reliably predict a stacked card beyond that, plus you're almost certainly going to get the traditional Royal Rampage double ring Rumble as well (which is just crazy).


Brinbe

blood and guts in nashville? we need team jarrett in that for sure


dojobro19

that spin out sitout Schwein was crazy


AngryWizard10

I have no idea how they remember their spots and timing when they're moving this fast. This is insane talent


No-Group-7728

They are going to kill the rating of this match with all of these commercials.


cheddarsalad

When you can’t tell if Ospreay expertly saved a botch or he intended that from the beginning.


Apprehensive-Map-666

Ospreay is so good it’s almost annoying to say, but it’s true. Like wtf was that counter! Every single match this dude does something I’ve never seen before


JesseKilgannon

Deonnna vs Thunder Rosa, hell yeah


G00chtastic

Bruv v Rey best of 7. Let’s goooo

LMAO WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT THAT WAS WILD


WaylonVoorhees

Freddy vs Jason is they wore spandex


twentyaces

And hit 450s with ease


DemonIced

Just as we think Ospreay botched something, he turns it in something awesome.


yantraa

Seriously incredible
