My gawd that opening segment

If I were a smoker, I'd probably need a cigarette now. Easily one of the best talking segments... heck, one of the best segments I've seen on AEW TV.

 

[Samoa Looch]

It's really hard to pin down what they gonna do, in my eyes. I'm still thinking it's obvious Will gonna win (since I'm still seeing that Hanger/Swerve v Young Bucks match happening at All In), buuuut... what if they'd give it to Hangman, he's winning the Title at All In just to lose it 6 weeks later in London to Ospreay, making their record a 1-1?

Because for Hangman, it's more about winning the Title than holding it, so him losing it relatively soon again wouldn't hurt imo. ...and overall it wouldn't hurt if you have shorter reigns from time to time. One of the few gripes I have with their booking.

He's losing. TK has positioned Will just in time for Forbidden Door and when he beats hanger at DoN . I'll get to see him win at Forbidden Door live against Moxley

The winners of the Owen Hart Cups are facing the respective champions at All In, not Forbidden Door.

 

[Comrade Khan]

correct. Will could defend at FD and likely will if he wins the Owen and at All In - but gonna have to keep watching to see what happens!
