Three Things We Hate and Three Things We Loved

Hate: There certainly was something more interesting Will Ospreay and Adam Page

Look, I know I’m basically complaining about all Will Ospreay matches, but at least I’m complaining about this for fresh and original reasons!

I don’t think there was a version where the “dynamite” opener version would have worked for me. It’s difficult to find this kind of thing interesting unless the characters are very persuasive or have a particularly strong relationship with each other. Want to play “Co-Exist” tag team with Hangman Page and Swerve Strickland? I’m everyone (so to speak). I’m rooted in the screen. But without these deep connections, there is no emotional anchor in the match. As mutual babyfaces that have never wrestled before, Page and Ospreay don’t even resemble such history. For me, this idea was destined from the beginning.

But with that in mind, I thought this was a particularly lazy version of the trope. They had a minor argument or two, and they almost bumped into each other a few times, but not, they got on the same page and won. It’s just… incredibly boring. Yes, Page and ospreay were unable to resolve their differences, their rivalry cost them and the match was decided as hell, but at least no matter what happened, they doubled or increased the tension in their match. This booking actively reduces that tension and makes their matches less interesting. This is a choice I cannot guess.

When WWE programming is actively destroying my sanity, it’s really great if another promotion is good. They are both babyfaces, respect each other and now they’re winning tag team matches together. Yawn. The appeal of the match is merely the fact that they have never wrestled before, and it must be assumed that it is a promise of quality in-ring performance, but it feels sadly ambitious in the present moment. I think AEW now has a real chance to pull off the mass of WWE’s fanbase, but those without inspiration like “Can they coexist? Yes, pretty easy” won’t get the job done.

Love: Zach Gowen and Ricochet bring fun

While some fans tend to try and get away from the facts, wrestling has been a truly, really strange entertainment medium. Legal fighters pursue legitimate competition, legal actors pursue jobs that are not physically involved, and the great sports of wrestling continue to move further away from unwritten alternatives.

Pro Wrestling itself was rooted in carnivals and circus. This is an embellished athletic display with a pre-set finish, one of the lighter scams that last longer, although fans have chosen to play together for some reason. As sports were modernised and elements of combat sports and entertainment media were absorbed, it may be difficult to remember, at its roots, wrestling was an outlet for those who were not permitted to succeed anywhere else. different In a world built for usually.

The idea is encapsulated in Zach Gowen’s career, when he lost his leg in a battle with cancer at the age of eight and he played a match against Ricochet this week’s “Dynamite.” Rather than being treated as a sideshow act, anyone who gets laughed at or gets lighter was emphasized for his tenacity and ingenuity. He legitimately surprised the ricochet with his unorthodox yet seemingly agile movements, addressing the fact that he could not actually ignore him, but he meshed well with the psychology of the match. When Ricochet gathers the bearings, he is shown to be far more clinical when pushing his advantage, but is rog-arrogant enough to underestimate his opponent. He was not presented with a suicide mission that could absorb victory as someone without a chance in the world.

But that doesn’t mean he had to win, and in the end it was the right decision for Ricochet to pay the fine to Gerwen’s achievements. It was a hateful villain and furthered Ricochet’s arc as a catalyst for Mark Briscoe to enter the fight in place of Gowen.

Hate: Hurt Syndicate Business with MJF continues for another week

Bobby Lashley joined the Heart Syndicate to Maxwell Jacob Friedman tonight, “Thumb Up” but it’s not official yet. I don’t know why me, me and I think other fans are tired of this angle after the past few weeks, and I thought we would wrap things up and move on either side. Hurt Syndicate and MJF are moving forward to signing contracts next week. Of course, as a wrestling fan, I know how contract signing usually goes.

If that fact isn’t bothering enough, AEW will show you the trick and basically let you know that something will fall next week. It happened when MJF and MVP happened behind the scenes, and MJF mentioned his lawyer to “Smart” Mark Sterling to look out over the contract. The MVP was obviously very rocky about it, but tried to play coolly. It’s very clear that there’s something he doesn’t want to see in MJF in that deal, and if I were the woman I bet, it must have something to do with double or nothing, so after this story feels like it’s already broken down, we’re going to continue doing things more.

If this is double or nothing, then at least it can be a fantasy book that goes on with what a fantasy book will look like. Hopefully somewhere on that contract there is a clause that says MJF must win the match in PPV. When MJF is in the ring, it’s Cedric Alexander who comes out to face him. As Alexander is defeating MJF, his contract to enter the wounded syndicate is null and invalid, and it is Alexander who will join, and WWE’s previous wounded business is now reunited under the new faction name of AEW. If so, it would have been hell on a long route to get Alexander into the stable, but at least after this MJF-related nonsense, it would have meant something positive.

Love: Mina Shirakawa means business in her first match officially all elite

I had feelings last week when comments began discussing the massive winning streak of “timeless” Toni Storm’s title eliminator. That was when Storm ended the hot streak of her career 12-0 when Mina Shirakawa, who debuted as an official member of the AEW roster, rolled up to one of her own for a victory in the championship. I was a bit surprised that Storm is the pin-taker. AZM also participated in the match. He pinned Shirakawa in the NJPW revival over the weekend and won the NJPW Strong Women’s Championship. However, I don’t care about it at all, as Shirakawa and Storm history is already in AEW. They had a cute little showdown with them.

He also doesn’t care if Storm gets a pin. Because it’s easy to set up a match with double or nuts for her and waste no time announce it. Before Storm and Shirakawa were announced, the only women’s match on double or notecards was the Owen Hart Tournament Final with Maine against Jamie Hater. This is a good match, but the outcome is pretty clear. The winner of Storm vs. Shirakawa is also pretty obvious, but at least they’ve got more women’s representatives on pay-per-view.

I love Shirakawa’s charisma and everything about her. This makes her look like a very reliable opponent as she shot the title from her first victory as an official member of AEW. And, perhaps, but not Mariah is a factor. If May re-signs AEW (but I doubt it, but just to think about all the options here), it would be a good place to return her to double or comforting to comfort Shirakawa after losing to the storm. Even if that doesn’t happen, I’m sure there will be a storm and a storm stare to end the female part of the event. I’m sure we’re all screaming “I want Mina!” I’m excited about her from the rooftop following her first run at work, double or nothing has been put into shape, and it’s not a great time.

Love: Daniel Garcia is ready to try again

Daniel Garcia spent his entire AEW tenure, essentially linked to a wrestler who is supposed to take him to his “next level.” Like Sisyphus, he never gets there, and is given the opportunity to go back down the hill and another wrestling legend to climb him up the hill.

Like Charlie Brown, I’m ready to take his pace and try out football again, so I’m ready to get hurt again with Daniel Garcia’s Sisyphean booking for Aew.

In this week’s “AEW Dynamite,” Nigel McGuinness has revealed that he will be the next wrestler to take on Daniel Garcia as the young ward, following in the footsteps of Chris Jericho and Brian Danielson. A fresh Garcia, who lost the title of AEW TNT, desperately needs a new coat of paint, and may have been ordered by McGuinness and one day doctors. Nothing, but McGuinness could be Garcia’s next feud. The two may be short on FTR in next week’s “AEW Dynamite.” It’s kind of feud that can fit on stage like everyone or one of the next shows on AEW.

But I’m ahead of myself…

McGuinness is very suitable for Garcia. Because the two have a very similar style. Garcia has learned everything she can from sports entertainers around the world. The boring stint with McGuinness can help the young star with a little more Polish language, but I’m beginning to wonder how long it will take him.

Dislike: Too many people in the ring

We will not dispute that Arena’s Anarchy has become one of AEW’s marquee matches in the past few years. And it has become a tradition of double or nothing. So it makes perfect sense that AEW wants to get back the match on May 25th for this year’s double or nothing.

Given that John Moxley is supposed to defend his AEW World Championship in a steel cage match, which is to keep a party of potential interfering people outside, there were certainly many people at ringside, like Marina Shafir, Claudio Castagnoli, Wheeler Utah, Willow Night Ingale and Powerhouse Hobbs. Yes, deathliders are known to interfere with each other’s business. When Gabe Kidd, Young Bucks, Kazuchika okada, Kenny Omega, “Speedball” Mike Bailey, Swell Bright Trickland and others were thrown into the mix at the moment the show closed, it became almost impossible to follow anyone who was in the ring or who saw someone who saw someone who saw someone who had seen someone who had come out of the ring. To easily track everything, there was a lot going on at once, especially when certain competitors like Okada and Bailey didn’t have to be involved because they were eliminated from the disorder from the arena match. What was a cool moment to set up the match turned into an absolute disaster, making it impossible as an audience and viewer, and we were able to watch the show.
