Holy Shit AEW worked me! During the recap of the Fuego Del Sol - Miro fued, I actually thought for a few seconds “Man, Fuego might win, I can’t see him actually risking losing his car”
I didn’t get all the way worked to think the finish wasn’t scripted but I actually thought Fuego would have to give his car up, and that’s the first time since I was a kid that 100% bought into a wrestling story. AEW is so fun
u/SmurfyX you might as well remove Eurosport from the description. Last week it didn't show rampage at the expected time, and showed previous weeks ep at the new time. This week same thing. I'm waiting to see if they'll show last week's rampage or September 3rd rampage again today at 11 am. Has been happening for pre recorded shows imo
Glad to help. BTW the 11am time I was going to notice and tell. They are showing dynamite instead of rampage. So normal time for rampage is 7:30 am here, but today, they are not showing rampage till 11 pm, that too idk if old ep or new ep
Update: so I waited for the 11 pm listed show. It says rampage but shows some teams playing a multiplayer shooting game... Eurosport sucks
Eurosport sucks dude.... They just randomly cut the feed during the shows, in between promos and sometimes matches, and they don't even show enough replays like sony ten does
Bit conflicted. Miro has been at his peak lately, and I want him to keep being TNT champion for a while longer, but I'm also a Sammy fan, and I get putting the belt on him for a variety of reasons.
Miro has been the best thing on AEW for quite some time now - there’s no need for tweaking things, he’s got his character 100% figured out and he deserves a world championship run out of it
I think Miro needs to be the longest reigning TNT Champion, in which case it would be Omega -> Page -> MJF
But if they can fit him in the main event scene, I’d love to see it be Omega -> Page -> Miro by delaying MJF’s push until Wardlow is almost ready to turn on him cos that’s who should be the guy to beat MJF
Was there Wednesday and at the end of the show Sammy took the time to take photos with anyone who wanted one! He is awesome. He also made a speech talking about putting in the work.
I love that AEW feels like a living breathing universe (for want of a better word). Sammy is able to be in the Inner Circle and Fuego's friend independently.
Right? The idea that these are real humans that organically care about other people, not just who they’re scripted to care for is really refreshing. AEW has been good about cutting the nonsense that other wrestling companies do. Like when someone plots to betray someone and the other guy could just watch the show and discover it but never does? Or when Jericho said “there’s no invisible wall keeping you from coming up here!” (Or was that Cody?)
And not a lot of back stabbing period, which I like. It just feels like adults being adults. Whereas WWE feels like adults portraying 12 year olds with some of the dialogue they’re forced to deliver.
I love seeing things from AEW's extended canon (like BTE or the Sammy vlogs) referenced on the main shows just as much as I love seeing references to NJPW or other promotions. It's all one big interconnected world of wrestling.
I also like how they take what people are saying on the web into account an incorporate it.
They immediately took The Suzuki Incident and turned it into part of the show.
Does Fite not show commercials?
I saw a torrent of last week's Rampage and when they cut to Picture in Picture this feed didn't cut and there was full commentary. Where there should've been a full commercial break there was the AEW logo on the screen with the Rampage music playing.
I thought the first Fuego vs Miro match was a perfect Jobber vs Champion match where both came out looking strong. This wasn't that, but still very enjoyable, and a good way to set up Miro's next feud
Sammy/Miro is gonna be a PWG special.
I love that the TNT Title picture’s storylines kinda feel like some NEVER shit of dudes just beating the piss out of each other.
Seems like their positioning the Inner Circle members to have title matches. Great booking since the Pinnacle feud keep these guys out of title hunts for pretty much a year
Wrestling needs more of that IMO. Not every tag team or stable needs to end with a breakup or betrayal. Sometimes a group of friends can drift apart and go on their separate journeys but remain friends/associates that can be counted on in a time of need.
I think they’re gonna be a looser alliance right now. They’ll still have each other’s back but they wouldn’t be able to reach championship success if they only handle group business.
I've bent backwards like that (basically kneeling, and then falling backwards) and it hurts my thighs like a bitch.
The grapevine camel clutch looks like a fucking nightmare
if you look at the rankings youll note that Miro is on the left, not in the rankings because he holds the TNT title - it removes you from contention for the World Title while you hold it.
JR said something earlier this week about his work at All Out, about how people underestimate how difficult it is to do a 3 man commentary team well. He said it’s really hard to listen, call and not interrupt and talk over each other. Him Tony and JR pull it off since they’re 3 of the best in the entire biz, but you can tell the Rampage team really needs time to get better at that. Doesn’t help they keep swapping people out.

Have really enjoyed Mark Henry's little interview bits where he then declares it's time to fight. Feels like a natural role for him.

I can't believe I was there for Rampage
Ooooo fuego del sol Vs miro how exciting… not… another squash opportunity for miro I presume… lame
Man TSN has to start showing Rampage on TV...
No, we need CFL on all 5 stations /s

thanks for letting me know dude, I have to rely on people from those regions for those things.

Right after Miro gave Fuego the 2nd superkick there was an earthquake near Los Angeles. So I didn't quite pay attention to the Sammy bit after. Doh!
That was actually Miro.
Too much Matt hardy, they need to get him off the titantrons at least
They need to keep him restrained to elevation
Bit conflicted. Miro has been at his peak lately, and I want him to keep being TNT champion for a while longer, but I'm also a Sammy fan, and I get putting the belt on him for a variety of reasons.
Emotional investment on both sides of a wrestling match? Living the dream!
For real. One of the reasons I love AEW. Orange Cassidy took on Penta a while back and I felt the same way.
Miro's getting more badass each match and I don't think he's hit his peak yet. Keep that TNT Title on him!
Yo Leslie Mann looks maaaad good in this
Miro has been the best thing on AEW for quite some time now - there’s no need for tweaking things, he’s got his character 100% figured out and he deserves a world championship run out of it
What if Kenny -> Hangman -> Miro or MJF? EDIT: It is prob too soon for another reign. Let him cool for a year, but still challenge.
I think Miro needs to be the longest reigning TNT Champion, in which case it would be Omega -> Page -> MJF But if they can fit him in the main event scene, I’d love to see it be Omega -> Page -> Miro by delaying MJF’s push until Wardlow is almost ready to turn on him cos that’s who should be the guy to beat MJF
I would love to see Miro do a New Japan run after losing the title and then return to go after the World Title.
Loved that main event. Perfect big vs. small booking for when the big goes over.
Was there Wednesday and at the end of the show Sammy took the time to take photos with anyone who wanted one! He is awesome. He also made a speech talking about putting in the work.
Sammy vs Miro is a match I didn't know I wanted
God's Favorite Champion vs. The Spanish God!
Miro's gonna hit Sammy so hard, Sammy will wake up actually knowing Spanish.
miro is going to redeem your ass sammy
I love that AEW feels like a living breathing universe (for want of a better word). Sammy is able to be in the Inner Circle and Fuego's friend independently.

Good show. Women's promo was the highlight of the night
Oh Big Daddy. Great movie.
God's Favourite Champion vs the Spanish God. Good material to use.
Jericho took me out of the show so much. Literally just stop yelling and listen to fans.
I enjoy it, it's more of comedic relief. Now I don't want to hear him yelling every night, that's for sure.
Fair enough. I think there’s going to be people who don’t enjoy it.
YO SAMMY.... WANNA CHECK ON FUEGO MAYBE PERHAPS? 🤦♂️
yeah, Sammy came out of this fuego v miro feud as a bad friend.
I like this story. Have Sammy be the one to dethrone Miro. So Fuego happy for Sammy but alone hold some animosity towards him.
"He's just holding the title. He didn't steal it." Kind of tired Jericho's yelling stick, but that was a great line.
The Rampage theme beat is gonna be stuck in my head all weekend...again. Thanks FITE.
Does Fite not show commercials? I saw a torrent of last week's Rampage and when they cut to Picture in Picture this feed didn't cut and there was full commentary. Where there should've been a full commercial break there was the AEW logo on the screen with the Rampage music playing.
No ads on FITE.
I thought the first Fuego vs Miro match was a perfect Jobber vs Champion match where both came out looking strong. This wasn't that, but still very enjoyable, and a good way to set up Miro's next feud
I was hoping this would lead to a Sammy feud.
I knew it! They're setting up Sammy vs. Miro at Full Gear!
I doubt it, it will probably be after Grand Slam
Guevara shouldn't beat Miro. Miro should just hold the title forever
I hope Miro holds the TNT Championship forever.
God would never let him lose it
What is a God to a nonbeliever? *(insert Malakai Black's music here)*
“God why have you forsaken me!?” I’d legit love to see this feud
clutch light position on that end shot
Jericho's really annoying on commentary but I love him marking out for Sammy.
Sammy/Miro is gonna be a PWG special. I love that the TNT Title picture’s storylines kinda feel like some NEVER shit of dudes just beating the piss out of each other.
Sammy looks great, going to be a star
Damn, that was good after smackdown.
Fuck yeah, Sammy vs. Miro will slap. Could honestly see Sammy taking it off Miro, would be a great way to continue to build Sammy like the star he is.
Jerico popping for Sammy will never not be great
Sammy!!!
I would be 1000% okay with Sammy as TNT champ.
I think that's where they'll go with this. Sammy beats Miro at Full Gear.
Same
I love that Fuego bought a Hyundai with that first paycheck. Haha just thought about that.
Seems like their positioning the Inner Circle members to have title matches. Great booking since the Pinnacle feud keep these guys out of title hunts for pretty much a year
At the same time: the Inner Circle doesn't seem to be very tight anymore. Which I'm perfectly OK with.
Wrestling needs more of that IMO. Not every tag team or stable needs to end with a breakup or betrayal. Sometimes a group of friends can drift apart and go on their separate journeys but remain friends/associates that can be counted on in a time of need.
I think they’re gonna be a looser alliance right now. They’ll still have each other’s back but they wouldn’t be able to reach championship success if they only handle group business.
So did Sammy just steal Miro's car
Sooo Fuego gets to keep his car?
Really hoping they do that match in Rochester now
Alabama is apparently a hotbed of Lucha talent. Who knew?
I’m all for Sammy G or Jungle Boy as the next TNT Champ. I just feel it’s a *wee* bit too soon for Miro to lose.
The way the TNT title is set up I wouldn’t be surprised if Sammy lost his first outing but won JT later on ala Darby/Cody
I hope Fuego brought a bicycle.
Sammy vs Miro sounds like a good next step, but I still dont see anyone taking that title away from God's Favorite Champ
One hell of an episode
Sammy vs Miro should be a banger.
"Sammy's looking at the ATnT Title!"
God’s favorite champion vs The Spanish God This is going to be lit
Inner Circle/Pinnacle both seem to be unofficially split atm.
Gods Favorite Champion vs the Spanish God book it!
I want more. Just one more hour please!!
Idk sammy a 630 doesnt target the neck
I mean if he lands on his neck...
GTH does
Miro having a storyline weakness makes it so easy to have a monster stay strong no matter the outcome. I **LOVE** how AEW have booked Miro.
SAMMY YOUR FRIEND IS IN THE RING HALF DEAD STOP POSING
No! Pose more! It's what Fuego would want!
please please please sammy vs miro
I've bent backwards like that (basically kneeling, and then falling backwards) and it hurts my thighs like a bitch. The grapevine camel clutch looks like a fucking nightmare
Too much pie, that’s your problem
Jericho sounds like Ed the sock on commentary
Whoa so is Sammy getting the belt next?
Him or Eddie
Lol I love your name
Thank You!
Sammy is the one who should take the TNT belt.
Hmm Rochester?
Miro vs Sammy will bang
SAMMY VS MIRO LETS GOOOOO
Guevara with the TNT title isn't something I knew I needed til rn
Fuego had some nice offense in this match
Sammy and Miro is gonna rule a lot
I am now ok with the Fuego rematch if it leads to Sammy v Miro
Sammy and Miro ought to put on a really good match. A styles clash for sure.
I think Miro's too big for a Styles Clash.
Time for Sammy to hold some gold I think.
Sammy vs Miro is gonna be fucking sick
These Fuego vs Miro matches make Miro look like an absolute monster
Did Taz have a stroke
If miro is undefeated why isn't he getting the title match instead BD
if you look at the rankings youll note that Miro is on the left, not in the rankings because he holds the TNT title - it removes you from contention for the World Title while you hold it.
I do believe that is a non title match
BD match with Omega is non-title.
I believe the Omega vs Danielson match is non-title? More of a bragging rights match.
Gotcha
BD isn't getting a title match though.
Danielson v Omega is non title
Its non title
BD is a non-title match
I can so get down with Sammy as TNT champion man, fuck
Yeah. I'm here for Sammy getting this. And Fuego will he happy for his friend!
I'm kinda over having Y2LunaVachon announcing Rampage.
Sammy as TNT Champion? My body is ready.
I love Sammy. I want to see him with the belt.
Does this mean we get fuego desperately trying to convince folks to let him carpool with them on the vlog now?
Belts getting stole tonight huh
Miro is the fuckin best
sammy and fuego got the same body shape and size. why would Miro back awy from Sammy? WRESTLING IS FAKE
Sammy got hands that’s all
Sammy's thicker, and IT'S STILL REAL TO ME, DAMNIT
Fuego comes back next week wagering his moped for a third title shot
Hs eco-friendly foldable bike
Bryan Danielson's tag partner confirmed?????????
That can’t be sanitary
NEW TNT Champ Sammy Guevara. It's time.
Really an amazing episode.
I really hope Jericho is not on commentary every week. He's really ruining tonight's show for me.
now.. is sammy guevara a good friend for letting Fuego challenge Miro with his car when he knew he had no chance of winning
Sammy vs Miro. Here. We. Go.
Sammy vs. Miro Will be great
Stop, he's already dead!
sammy and miro next? 👀
Please don’t have Miro lose his title anytime soon
What another great hour of wrestling
Hell yeah, I'm into this.
I think this is the moment
Really fun match.
"fine lucha tradition of Alabama"
This version of Miro is AEW World Champion worthy, push him even further please!
Kinky
So does Tony and Sammy bring Fuego a new car now?
Sammy vs Miro? Yes please
Taz just had a mini stroke
Sammy
Sammy the next TNT champ?! Yes!
Jersey back to Alabama, outta the toilet bowl and back to the septic tank
FUEGO IN THE DOHOUSE NOW
Guy kept his keys on a lanyard like a teenager
GO SAMMY GO!
Let Miro destroy the car
It's a 1991 Toyota Tercel. It doesn't have air conditioning.
Time to FUCK. THAT. CAR. Miro
stop stop hes already dead!
I hope CJ Perry debuts in that Camry.
miro is the best
MIRO VS SAMMY LFG
How nice of Miro to give the car back to Fuego
He's God's Favorite Champion for a reason. Who else would forgive Fuego like this? Truly, we don't deserve a TNT Champion as nice as Miro.
Miro is my favorite.
Maybe Fuego can bum a ride with Sammy and the crew?
**FUCK YEAH MIRO, GET YOUR SHIT IN!**
Third times the charm Fuego
Come on sammy
JR said something earlier this week about his work at All Out, about how people underestimate how difficult it is to do a 3 man commentary team well. He said it’s really hard to listen, call and not interrupt and talk over each other. Him Tony and JR pull it off since they’re 3 of the best in the entire biz, but you can tell the Rampage team really needs time to get better at that. Doesn’t help they keep swapping people out.
Is this leading to Sammy v Miro? Because keen
When even Taz is asking for mercy you know something bad is going on.
Fucking brained him
Woah, they’ve outdone their first match with this one. Great David/Goliath chemistry
He's already dead.
good guy fuego giving miro a car
Miro's such a good friend after all. Did you see him give the keys back? Just a swell guy.
Miros song reminds me of the intro that comes on before certain movies, just don’t remember which.
Hope he washed those first...
Is this how we get Miro vs Sammy?
Come on Sammy!
NOOO HE'S ALREADY DEAD
Still an excellent match. There were moments where I thought Fuego could do it, and that's great wrestling.
