MJF with the surprise... interesting. Imagine they wouldn't end it between Keith/Bill and the Hurt Syndicate here and would do something like the Syndicate with MJF against The whole Learning Tree


I mean... Jericho and MJF have history after all...

to not book the way you want?

It's the fact that Mox seemingly always comes on in the main event, puts on a three-star match that was preceded by at least a 4.5 star one, takes entirely too long, then some sort of overbooking happens because This Reign Must Continue. It's like Roman near the end when we just wanted to get to WM40 already. The reaction at this point is becoming less "you're the heel, boo" and more "ugh, this again?".

Add to that it was the Bucks that made the difference in Mox's favour. Wasn't the point of Mox and the Death Riders that he saw the Bucks bullshit early last year and decided "enough is enough, Make AEW Edgy Again"? I'm aware we'll get some sort of explanation on Dynamite but I fear they'll do the worst thing they could do, which is to make a super-faction. Makes no sense for either party

That idea of a Death Riders/Bucks alliance feels like it's just straying into that "battle for the soul of AEW" territory again that sucked with the Elite takeover thing last year. Hopefully it doesn't happen

I personally think it's much too early to make those assumptions. I also think the reign is what 6 months? It's really not that long or in immediate need to be killed. I also think this result is fresh with how they did it and opens a lot of questions. If the bucks shit the bed story wide I'll certainly also be bummed out though. But I feel this is also a way to pull Kenny and Okada back into the story which is also a good thing.

I know it feels like a cop out but ppl are supposed to want mox to lose.

I also think it's inacurate to call it a 3 star match. Only the the mox cope 1st match stood out in a negative way. This match was great imo

 

[Comrade Khan]

Like Roman stuff was 3 years, while there's some similarities in the heel going over with new and silly interference, I'm not really seeing the same finish for 3 years with 5 will they won't they uso betrayals.

That being saing not gonna bregudge anyone for disliking it lol

 

[Comrade Khan]

I wanted swerve to win too fwiw. I just always see this shit like an episode of tv and idk that finish made a lot of sense to me as this wasn't a season finale

 

[Comrade Khan]

Not to mention they have been telling us for a while it's gonna be Willy

 

[Comrade Khan]

Quite strongly too

 

[Comrade Khan]

Ok a positive note I'm putting hangman Kenny and swerve vs Okada and the bucks into the universe.

 

[Comrade Khan]

I also think it's very funny I've been talking shit about the bucks all week and even tn calling them lazy and not bought in and these fuck heads show up n ruin Swerves day. God dammit lol

 

[Comrade Khan]

I think the main issue with mox is ain't nobody wanna see this at midnight on a school night so it feels u stay up just to get kicked in the dick lmao

 

[Comrade Khan]

LMFAO

 

[Comrade Khan]

Also swerve said fuck Booker T LMFAO

Maaaan... what a grade A garbage finish for Jericho/Bandido. You have to be smarter about this... because now you have, at the end of the storyline, a dastardly, villainous heel with a substantiated claim on the Title because of the officiating. I wouldn't be as critical about it, if it were *just* about the mask or if it were a Match about a #1 Contender spot... or if it weren't any kind of Match that isn't the end point of a storyline with a fuckin' World Title on the line.

Why not have Jericho taunt Bandido's family with the bat in hand and when he's about to turn around to go back into the ring, have Bandido's Sis grab the bat... or have the Sis jump the barricade and get the bat from Jericho in some way... or just have Bandido dodge the bat attack... anything would've been better than this Dusty finish stuff in a World Title match in 2025, especially since it looks dodgy overall (because it's not like they, for example, showed a replay on the screens for Bryce to watch or anything like that). It's not a good look for the officials and it's not a good look for the guy who starts his second World Title run with it.

 

[Samoa Looch]

Speaking of the Jericho Match though...

*Jericho sitting on Bandido's shoulder and waves*
Jericho: "HI GUYS!"
Schiavone: "Ugh... a high spot."
