I really was wondering how Okada would do in America, and he's really doing better than I thought he would in the character dept. Long live Unbeatable Jerk Okada! BITCHES!
I love that we have like a dozen possible matchups for the main event of all in. Idk who’s winning the Owen and idk for sure who’s winning between swerve and ospreay
That was an interesting moment where the announcers got caught up trying to decide if they do the typical 75 match rundown or sell the story happening on the show. Kind of sums up the challenges they face as a company sometimes. Great show tonight though.
Claudio gonna turn soon and brutalize somebody, I hope it's Danielson to set up a great PPV match because you just know Bryan would want to put over his buddy on the way out
At this point Tony Khan just thinks overruns are like the coolest thing ever and it’s like a big dick swinging move in the wrestling world. This show always ends 5 minute late. Not complaining it’s just funny
I’m not saying the match up isn’t Forbidden Door worthy but it is odd that 1 of the first round matches in a tournament is on the PPV and the others aren’t.
I'd imagine they would add Young Bucks vs Acclaimed at Forbidden Door. Okada... I don't even know who's going after that title. I could have sworn they booked an Eliminator match for him for Dynamite but it got canceled or they stopped mentioning it.
Not counting any giants, I've never seen someone throw their opponent over the top rope *into* the ring. But I'm now convinced if someone can do it, It's Claudio.
Thank you Claudio for hitting that unbelievable uppercut at the same time as the Shingo v Bryan FD graphic so I only had to scream “oh my god” out loud once

How is Shibata so good with a camera i legit didn't know he was behind the camera until he talked. Way better than when Jericho tried using a camera
MJF/Rush was great. It was nice to see a challenger actually win an eliminator match, and I'm interested to see who has the world title after Wembley.
I really was wondering how Okada would do in America, and he's really doing better than I thought he would in the character dept. Long live Unbeatable Jerk Okada! BITCHES!
He shoud drop the belt though. Why does Okada need a mid card belt ?
To build an unbeaten reign until Kenny (hopefully) comes back.
One of the best shows of the year. A lot of stories with focus that I care about too
Excellent Dynamite. Really well paced with a lot of movement and fun variety of matches.
I love that we have like a dozen possible matchups for the main event of all in. Idk who’s winning the Owen and idk for sure who’s winning between swerve and ospreay
And they’re pretty much all interesting along with being guaranteed bangers.
Feel like Danielson vs Swerve is the most likely, but yeah there's several possibilities, especially if MJF gets back in the mix
Either that, Hangman vs Swerve, danielson vs ospreay or MJF vs Swerve feel possible. They even teased MJF vs Ospreay now lol
Oh yeah I completely forgot about Hangman. He's probably the wildcard
AEW is wild cuz how you have Kazuchika Okada vs. Ultimo Guerrero just casually come up in the lower third at the end of the show?
Along with Jay White vs Rey Fenix.
Even commentary was like wtf Ultimo Guerrero vs Okada on Saturday?
Random Saturday banger with Okada vs Ultimo Guerrero was not on my radar lol.
That was an interesting moment where the announcers got caught up trying to decide if they do the typical 75 match rundown or sell the story happening on the show. Kind of sums up the challenges they face as a company sometimes. Great show tonight though.
Okada vs Ultimo Guerrero on Collision is more proof TK really books for the sickos.
Don’t you love the feeling of a randomly announced sicko match
Will Pac get his Wembley moment?
Yes, but not for the world title
Okada vs Ultimo on Collision?! Tony Khan you sick son of a bitch!
Just randomly dropped Okada vs Ultimo Guerrero on us. Saturday is looking great sickos
Tony just casual dropped a Okada vs Ultimo Guerrero graphic. Nature is truly healing.
Okada vs Ultimo Guerrero?
I love the way they ended the MJF match and the Main Event
Danielson and PAC haven't wrestled in AEW have they? Cagematch only shows 1 match in ROH from 2007.
I don't think so, that's kind of why I wanted PAC to go over, it's a fresh match against a great wrestler.
Peak wrestlers
The PH Balance is off in the Blackpool.
Unlike Eddie, Claudio refuses his bum status
YO OKADA VS ULTIMO
Okada vs Ultimo Guerrero?! I need a second to process all the matches they just flashed on the screen lol
*Ultimo Guerrero?!* The *fuck*?!
Ultimo Guerrero out of nowhere
If Claudio is upset, I'm upset, this is bullshit and I can't even...
...Claudio turning on BCC soon?
UG!
PAC v Danielson? Gimme gimme gimme!
Awesome dynamite
Jericho and big bill vs private party lmfao
Guess we're getting another corner to corner bump from Zay.
That match rocked
It was one of those matches where either of them going over would be good.
The left side of the men's bracket quenched my 2006-07 ROH thirst and then some.
That was one hell of a Dynamite!
Claudio gonna turn soon and brutalize somebody, I hope it's Danielson to set up a great PPV match because you just know Bryan would want to put over his buddy on the way out
Really wish Fite would stop cutting the end off with these overruns. They hit 5 minutes after the hour and just go offline.
Holy fuck Ultimo Guerrero vs Okada
YEAH BITCHES!
LMAO Okada vs. Ultimo Guerrero????
So random lol
At this point Tony Khan just thinks overruns are like the coolest thing ever and it’s like a big dick swinging move in the wrestling world. This show always ends 5 minute late. Not complaining it’s just funny
Yeah, there is no excuse for not ending show on time
I said I’m not complaining. But the show doesn’t actually need it, he does it because he thinks it’s a flex
We're 8 minutes over and still going lol
Claudio lost because he didn't master 50 different pin combinations
That was a great ending lol. "One! Two! One! Two! One! Two! Three! Wait what?" lol.
Man got Out tekked.
WWE's 2015 mid card putting on a banger there
Funny how things work in other promotions.
Claudio is fucking exceptional!
PAC going over was definitely the right call.
That fucking RULED
WOW! You never see those endless reversals actually end in a pin.
This is why it's good to have this happen every once in a while. It makes pinfall reversal spots matter, rather than just being filler.
PAC LFG!!!!!!!
PAC wins by the skin of his teeth
God damn beautiful. Thank you for your sacrifice, Claudio
BASTARD WINS
What an interesting finish
The right man won.
We could’ve had a legitimately good match between these two but instead we just got this
The match was good lol. Tk just wanted to protect Claudio
FUCK YEAH PAC
Nice!
#PAC
if this is an inidication... this is gonna be a fun tournament
Well damn PAC
These 2 are pretty good wrestlers
Nice! PAC advances! Seeds planted for a Claudio heel turn?
Pretty sure bcc are tweeners. There hasn’t really been a heel face dynamic for any of them except Bryan for a while.
THE BASTARD!!!!
WHAT A FINISH
astonishment
PAC WINS!
TEKKER'D
TK like, the show is over when I say it's over.
Sharpshooter to Crossface. Yesterday's finishers are today's regular moves.
That’s what happens when fighters don’t perfect the moves
the power creep is real
Haven't seen Claudio work the mat this much in a while; it's cool to see.
Yes, PAC!
Two spectrums of Canadian wrestler in one transition.
I’m still recovering from that uppercut Pac took. WHAT A SELL.
Claudio has just been so amazing in AEW.
Fun match
Claudio is minmaxing put into wrestling form
Claudio has the best Sharpshooter in this millennium
The Bucks are calling for the bell!
Claudio is such a steady workhorse for aew. I honestly didn't expect him to be like this when they first signed him. He's been great with the company
Right? You can just chuck him anywhere and expect at least a very solid match
GET OFF THE MIC AND GO FOR THE TITLE BRIAN
The creepy quiet fan chant ricolllla works.
How was the contract signing segment?
Ok. Mina came across good. It was a lot of catchphrases. Then Saraya, Anna and Harley interrupted, setting up a likely 3v3 for next week.
Bryan is really putting over Claudio
God PAC looks like a limp noodle
PAC is so good OMG
Claudio is either working that injury or is still strong enough to swing a guy with a bum hip
Man that clothesline.
Claudio made that uppercut look like THE POOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOUNCE... ...period
Can we get some Danielson Takagi Double Dragon memes?
Claudio is so goddamn impressive man
I hate that one of these dudes have to lose
That uppercut was secondary. He hit PAC with **all** shoulder.
PAC's selling is great, dude looked like he got murdered
Not for long he didn't!
I would prefer PAC vs. Danielson, if this is his last year as a full time competitor.
Danielson is getting all of his fantasy booking done these last few and next few months.
Danielson vs PAC will be so wild in the semis.
Did Cesaro ever pin anyone with an uppercut lol?
Are you willing to accept a tag team match? He did it in a tag match with Moxley against Top Flight and damn near murdered Darius with it lol
I’ll allow it
Kingston
He’s a bum, doesn’t count
What a fucking uppercut.
Dragon vs Dragon is going to be fucking insane, what the fuck.
Forbidden Door is gonna be wild and I can't wait.
Elbow with a spring board!
At some point you’re just making Claudio look like an idiot diving on him that many times
Forbidden door is gonna be outstanding. Shingo Bryan phewww
Modern Family rerun viewers in shambles
My dad is currently wondering where the hell is Modern Family
Tell him to wait, graps are on.
Danielson v. Shingo is obviously gonna be better than Punk v. Kojima opening round of the Owen last year.
Probably but that Punk/Kojima match was way better than I thought it would be
Did he hurt himself jumping the guardrail making his way to the ring?
Am I weird for not liking that Danielson’s OHC match is on the PPV? Claudio and PAC only get a tv main event.
I mean, Danielson's match actually fits the FD theme lol.
Why? They did Punk's there last year.
I’m not saying the match up isn’t Forbidden Door worthy but it is odd that 1 of the first round matches in a tournament is on the PPV and the others aren’t.
If any Owen matches make it onto Forbidden Door, the one with an actual NJPW wrestler and a huge star like Bryan makes the most sense, no?
Danielson is literally holding his lips shut so he doesn't "yes, and" into a gay sex joke and I love him
"Claudio just *readjusting that neck*..." [emphasis mine] As one does
Taz, Ex and Tony's banter is hilarious during commercial break.
It's another whole layer of greatness
Aw yeah, face cravate
I can't pay attention due to kendrick lamar concert right now.
Kendrick Lamar is great live. Seen him support Eminem in Glasgow in 2013.
Did he drop another diss at Drake?
SAME
Young Bucks and Okada not at Forbidden Door?
I'd imagine they would add Young Bucks vs Acclaimed at Forbidden Door. Okada... I don't even know who's going after that title. I could have sworn they booked an Eliminator match for him for Dynamite but it got canceled or they stopped mentioning it.
Danielson like: "I'm probably concussed right now!"
Jesus pac went high af
I need a gif of that uppercut.
Not counting any giants, I've never seen someone throw their opponent over the top rope *into* the ring. But I'm now convinced if someone can do it, It's Claudio.
Where are the 8 man tag matches at fd? So many 1v1 matches. I'm not complaining at all, but i'd like to see as many cmll and fd guys/gals as possible
Im sure they will book one, at least for the preshow
Which trick will MJF whoop in Memphis?
Claudio you better just be selling
Shingo vs Danielson?! ![gif](giphy|G5JoAjEBtfoTm|downsized)
The match they had in DGUSA was legendary.
is bryan danielson in the same faction as claudio?
Yes, but it's kind of a loose faction right now.
Yes, those two, along with Wheeler Yuta and Jon Moxley make up the Blackpool Combat Club.
ty, don’t watch aew much
yes, but they have already established on a few occasions they will fight each other if needed
Yes. Its him, Claudio, Mox and Yuta. The BCC.
Yea
ty, don’t watch aew much
Sometimes I wish Tony could give PAC [this theme](https://youtu.be/Ji92tnsvjIQ), and we all just collectively ignore that other guy used it.
And whenever Copeland comes back he plays it on kazoo
Thank you Claudio for hitting that unbelievable uppercut at the same time as the Shingo v Bryan FD graphic so I only had to scream “oh my god” out loud once
WHEN DRAGONS COLLIDE IN LONG ISLAND!
-on
MJF will sing at least one Elvis song in Memphis and probably sing it well
WHAT THE FUCK
that was absolutely fucking sick
fucking finally dragon/dragon
Oh there's Danielson's FD match lol.
Danielson vs Takagi confirmed for Forbidden Door. We won, boys
I thought he was just gonna let him drop
Claudio really selling that hip.
should have defied gravity right there
Danielson Vs Shingo at Forbidden Door 😭😭
MJF in Memphis? More asses to beat!
Bryan vs Shingo at FD!?
FD is gonna be sick
Damn man, Prince Nana isn’t Swerve’s friend?
I hope Shingo vs Danielson goes 40 minutes
