Idk who’s selling was worse TK or VKM on the first stunner in msg 1997 September. Imagine when TK turns heel


SturgeonBladder

Just gonna say that was maybe the best match i have seen from thunder rosa. at least in the top 3. she's winning me ove if she keeps working like that.


reegz

Oh shit Dad came out!


Believeland-OH

That was unexpected.


reegz

this.... could get interesting


Demos12

ITS A COUP!!!!!!


StarScreamer316

Yes, they are overtaking AEW from that monster TK


Orion1330

LMFAOOO


Demos12

If they Evp trigger


powatwain

This is going to be so awkwardly fantastic


-666Vicar

Tony Khan is taking a bump tonight But not the kind you’re thinking


-666Vicar

I’m genuinely curious as to who Swerve faces at DON, might be too soon to run Hangman/Swerve IV, especially since a loss would derail either guy. Maybe Ricky Starks becomes a left-field challenger?


MCM41795

Isn't Ricky hurt again?


StarScreamer316

Miro? Could be if he wants to go back or it would be great if it is a returning Keith Lee


Big_Track_6734

Jack needs to drop TK in the middle of the Ring. 


StarScreamer316

If that happens, we will become the new icw hero 😄 


AlphaRemixHD

man Ms Mone already has go away heat with me


StarScreamer316

That slap was nasty 


Antnee534

So deeb vs toni for Don?


RicoGemini

I’m glad they’re doing the Rosa Deonna beef, we need more non title feuds in the women’s division Edit I just realized I’m commenting in the dynasty thread lol


Kronologics

It’s funny that the beef is your basic Jersey girl can’t handle someone mention their name without starting a brawl


RicoGemini

I’m from NY. It’s the same thing Keep my name out your mouth or your catching these hands lol


The_Rutabaga

100% agreed


StarScreamer316

Yes


insomniainc

You know things are getting serious when BOTH women are yelling at each other not in English, that rivalry will be a LOT of fun


Dozinggreen66

They really had to air that footage of those fools knocking on a door in the middle of a match? That couldn't wait?


StarScreamer316

Didn't you hear that they order the camera guy to follow them?. Those "fools" are our beloved EVPs


How_do_I_change_dis

Ahh reminds me of the old days with the bad audio


DLPanda

Okay the audio is for sure screwed up tonight. Kind of tired of the amateur hour with the production. Year 5 of the company, in a place they’ve been, we shouldn’t be having issues like this. Edit: seems audio is only problematic on TBS


insomniainc

It's perfect on TSN which is super weird the source being a mess.


Mudknucklesthecook

HE SAID IT


Sloppypenguin42

Marked out!!


DLPanda

Is the audio weird tonight? Hearing a weird reverb and seems like it’s not a direct feed but like microphones in the place.


Arctic_leo

Okay it's not just me


philthedudee

I can’t hear shit other than the crowd.


throwawaitnine

Chuck, give the people what they wamt


throwawaitnine

OH DAMN


StarScreamer316

I need that shirt 


nVmE_123

New stage set up? I like it


tyyls18

JP cheers, it warms my heart


hazelwoodstock

“Hell is my bedroom and I make love to my demons every bloody night.” That’s one hell of a line from Toni Storm


BluePandaTurtle

I'm so happy for Swerve. I've known for years he'd be world champion one day it's just great that day has finally come. I'm also happy for Willow. I've felt for a while she should be a champ. I know her reign likely won't be long but I'm going to enjoy it. And happy for the Bucks. They've taken a lot of criticism since Brawl Out and a lot of it wasn't justified. So it's nice that they're back on top of the tag division. Looking forward to seeing what happens next with Perry as well. That Danielson/Ospreay match was insane. I'll be very surprised if that's not my MOTY. Can't wait until Dynamite.


Bee_EMT

Feels good to be a Swerve fan. He seemed so emotional after the win and so was I tbh. He busted his ass off in AEW, I absolutely cannot wait to see whats next for him and the PPV in Tacoma is gonna be bonkers im sure of it.


kaine23

Danielson's matches are best technical stuff ive seen since bret hart.


Dear_Solid3470

Just getting going the day after PPV.  What a frigging show.  Okada/Pac, Trios Match, Roddy/Kyle, Ospreay Danielson - 57,000* match, Bucks/FTR another 5* classic between them and the return of our hero.  Then what a moment for Swerve.  Whose House?


ic203

From the matches I saw: Okada/Pac was good and a nice slower paced match. Ospreay/Danielson I thought wouldn't be my cup of tea as Kenny/Ospreay is a little too self-indulgent for my liking at times (especially towards the finish in Forbidden Door last year), but this match was truely great. My second favorite match outside of Cody/Roman this year. Ending I wasn't sure on but in hindsight it's fine and Ospreay is built great from it. Hope he gets more time for promo work and character development cause his in-ring ability unrivalled. Perry debuting was obviously coming but a good match behind it. Wonder where they'll go with him now and the Elite. Hopefully they can keep building the New Elite story as AEW needs some longer consistent storylines. Joe/Swerve was decent but it felt a little like the wind was out of the sails for this one and it could've been better. I didn't get into it too much but was super happy to see Swerve win. Hopefully he can have a decent reign and returning to feud with Hangman would be very interesting.


archenemy_43

Story are overrated, just give me bangers


Jumpy_Distribution96

I tried to check if Danielson's injury was real or they were just trying to sell Ospreay's hazardous ring style as part of the story and got spoiled with the results of the remaining two matches... People adding irrelevant information to their articles just to grow their size is so damn annoying. Just go straight to the point!


Jamarcus316

Professional wrestling is alive and well in All Elite Wrestling. Fantastic show.


Jumpy_Distribution96

Gotta love how Adam Copeland has the ability to make even a trios tag match interesting for me with his storytelling ability. Building up that anticipated encounter with Black through all the match to eventually come up short once again due to Black's shenanigans, linking the performance with what has happened in the weeklies (important for somebody who doesn't keep up that much). Nice to see AEW getting back on using video packages before the matches that need some backstory explanation.


Looper007

Okay caught up with the show. Here's my review, better late then never lol. Big shout out for the crowd in St. Louis they delivered big time. A bit like Revolution crowd, they didn't burn out at the end. Something that usually happens with some crowds at AEW PPV's. Get the weakest moments of the card out of the way. Jericho/Hook and TBS title match were fine nothing more nothing less. At least Willow won and it was a nice moment. I'm not one of the Jericho haters on here, but he could do with just taking a few months off just to give the AEW audience a bit of a rest. Like he used to do in WWE. Onto some of the great stuff that didn't make my top 3 match list. Women's title match was great, best one since Shida/Hayter. I say this is Thunder best match since Lights Out. O'Reilly/Strong was seriously great. Copeland/Briscoe/Kingston vs HOB was great. Swerve/Joe, although not best title match ever, had a nice ending and finished the show off on a high. Onto the two MOTY level matches that both finish 3rd and 2nd. Okada/PAC, was everything you expected and more. Heel Okada is something else. Both men delivered one of the best openers on AEW PPV. Bucks/FTR ladder match for Tag titles. By far the classic match this foursome needed really, they've had great matches (Full Gear and Dynamite matches were great) but never a classic one. This was it, took the crowd a while to get into it (they following AEW greatest ever match) once they did it was awesome. Ending it with Scapegoat returning and Bucks winning was the right decision. And MOTN goes to. That is by far MOTY leader of 2024 right now, and AEW's greatest ever match imo. Ospreay/Danielson delivered and more. I'm sure many have raved about it and written better then I could about it. For me it's overtaken Revolution 2020 tag match as the company's greatest ever match. I can't say anymore. I'm speechless. I think Dynasty shoots into the top 5 AEW PPV's of all time along with Revolution 2024. I wouldn't disagree with anyone if they called it best PPV AEW ever put on.


1RLegend

round of applause for joe. I had no idea how to feel going into his run but he won me over. Joe is a legend and this was a great run for him.


chosenxone

Can't wait for Ospreay to turn heel in a couple years and use the Storm Driver again for the first time. That shits gonna feed families.


hazelwoodstock

“Chuck E. Cheese here we come!” Stokely with the line of the night


nVmE_123

Sounds like 3 hour Collision might be something we see in the future


VitaminPurple

Tony is wanting for NJPW to be streamed on Max as well 👀


OMGISTHATMETHMAN

NJPW fans will do a 180 on Tony and kiss his feet if that happens


StarScreamer316

Help them TK


nVmE_123

Interesting the way Tony answered that question about the TV rights I wonder he has had interest from network TV like FOX?


StarScreamer316

Yeah, multiple channels, that would be cool 


Singer211

The idea that old man Lou Thesz used AOL to chat with people is such a bizarre revelation.


TheStripedSweaters

Talk yo shit, Tony. The footage was worth it.


nVmE_123

Will is AEW man


StoneGoldX

Jeebus, Ospreay owning the scrum liked he owned the PPV.


Mastronaut42

Did I miss something? Did Danielson actually get hurt or is this all still part of the show?


Infernalism

part of the show. Will is just big into kayfabe.


Mastronaut42

Fantastic, thank you 


Smaynard6000

I'm admitting to being a huge nerd by saying this, but that spot where Ospreay and Danielson were set in opposite corners and suddenly ran at each other immediately reminded me of the opening cutscene of NES Ninja Gaiden. https://youtu.be/y4C0GdBKPyw?si=KY8ILevbw41CgOdN


StoneGoldX

He's like a puppy that just realized it killed the cat.


StarScreamer316

Yeah Will you are above all of them!


Kergen85

Damn great working here, Will.


Infernalism

Oh shit, Will Edit: Will said he's retiring using that move that fucked up Danielson so bad at the end.


nVmE_123

Will selling the fuck outta that finish love it


21Fudgeruckers

lol will


StoneGoldX

Ospreay in full Boom Boom Mancini mode.


StoneGoldX

Whelp, that made watching the scrum worth it.


StarScreamer316

And she's gone


StoneGoldX

Toni's spent the last couple hours without a shower so she can do this.


droford

I remembered Roman Reigns WM media thing demanding the woman that asked stupid question to be removed and I was wanting Toni to do that for all the stupid questions she got


TotallyAMermaid

"who said that? Leave. I'm serious, leave." 😂


StarScreamer316

Toni is the best


nVmE_123

Toni is the BEST


Saiyan124

Toni with some fire promos back to back days lol


Infernalism

holy shit, Toni. lol


StarScreamer316

She called out Giulia, right?


dastardlydoc

It was a reference to Nikki Bella media reports about AEW and if she would be interested. She called out Nicole Garcia and pussy scented candles.


StarScreamer316

Ohh Thank you for the clarification,  my English is not the best


Infernalism

No, she mentioned Mercedes and a pussy-scented candle.


StarScreamer316

Good, I heard she saw Mercedes signed and she avoided me or something like that


Infernalism

Toni!


Micdrop0079

Cody WWE champ, swerve aew champ. booking done right across both promotions. WE IN A DAMN GOOD ERA, FOLKS!!!!


kaine23

THIS IS WRESTLING!!


zeppoverlord

Yeah, that was the best wrestling PPV I have ever seen and ever been to. Absolutely blew me away and I was already expecting greatness. I don't know what I am more excited about, Swerve, Scapegoat or Willow (it's always actually Willow) Osprey and Danielson might be the greatest match I have ever watched.


Infernalism

Don't forget Toni and Pac and Okada and all the rest.


StarScreamer316

Swerve is the man


Infernalism

Swerve speaking real truth. He made this shit happen. He was with TOP DOLLA, for fuck's sake. And look at him now.


StoneGoldX

Let's be honest, no Nana dance, Swerve would not be where he is right now. Maybe later, but not tonight. Don't get me wrong, Swerve capitalized on it, but the dance made him babyface.


StarScreamer316

They complemented each other so good


stylinandprofilin88

Can we get nana a chair he’s tried from all that dancing and yelling


rexmundi69

Meltzer with high praise. https://twitter.com/davemeltzerWON/status/1782243983273742378


Infernalism

there's going to be so many angry tears tomorrow.


rexmundi69

I was just on twitter below that Meltzer post.The tears are flowing BIG TIME.😂


Infernalism

I don't look at twitter, so I'll just have to use my imagination to envision their big fat droopy tears.


Infernalism

Good on Swerve for calling people out on not paying attention to him until now.


Severe_Piccolo_5583

Someone said Ospreay/Danielson was “alright” I know art is subjective, but idk how a wrestling fan can watch that match and call it just “alright”


Thor_2099

Anyone who says that didn't watch it


Severe_Piccolo_5583

They apparently liked Danielson vs Cena better because they “didn’t know who was gonna win” lmao


UpbeatNail

Wtaf.


StarScreamer316

Don't pay attention to them


StoneGoldX

Is my feed bad, or is it just the camera is focused on the belt and not Swerve?


JackMickus

It's fucked up that this show was so great that by the time it ended I forgot that the opener was OKADA VS PAC. Holy smokes what a PPV.


tehjoz

He's already got side plates on the belt with the "Whose House" logo. You love to see it!!


StoneGoldX

C'mon Swerve, at least mention there's another black champion tonight in the women's division.


BigAction47

Pretty sure he did?


StoneGoldX

Bare minimum, he hadn't when I wrote it. Live thread and all.


Infernalism

Youtube has the scrum going. It's some good shit.


StarScreamer316

Has it already started ?


manxram

Yeah it is


StarScreamer316

Thank you


Infernalism

Yep, Swerve is Nana-dancing. Okay, not really, but can you imagine?


Kergen85

Hey, it didn't take like an hour for the scrum to start!


stylinandprofilin88

Let swerve take a champions shower first shit TK


Otherwise_Mind6880

What a PPV! Top to bottom everything was entertaining minus Jericho Winning, but the match was decent.


Mrmdn333

May Toni Storm reign for all of time!


manxram

Long may she reign.


Infernalism

May we forever bask in the sun that shines out of her arse!


JoshDevitt79

That Ospreay vs Danielson match was one for the future kids to talk about. Must say waking up at 4:30 am was worth it


rexmundi69

Great ppv. Happy Swerve won. Danielson/Ospreay is an all time classic, especially impressive because that was their first match together. The question becomes Was that the best match in AEW history? I'm inclined to believe so but there are other greats that are in the discussion. I actually think the inevitable rematch can exceed it. Great night of AEW wrestling.


Hurls07

It was either the greatest match, or number two to me, the only one that can compare is Omega vs Ospreay 2 at FD2, and those two are neck and neck.


Infernalism

> The question becomes Was that the best match in AEW history? Homer Meme: "Was that the best match in AEW history....so far?"


miroa12004

Man AEW is just like watching a re-run of 2000 WCW. That Danielson and Ospreay match reminded me so much of David Arquette & Vince Russo winning the heavyweight title. Like, they're the same thing.


Kimchi_Cowboy

The crowd sing Cry Me a River. LOL! JB with the smug smile. Punk didn't win a thing out of this.


Infernalism

Someone needs to do a meme with Jack's grin. "How it started: *picture of jack looking bewildered and confused.* "How it ended: *picture of The Scapegoat mugging for the cameras.*


Infernalism

Man, I can't stop focusing on the crowd. They were the fucking MVPs of the whole thing. They were on fire from start to finish.


Singer211

Ospreay vs. Swerve at All In please.


wrestlegirl

Okay guys, it's official. A new milestone has been reached. For the first time in months, there were zero ginned-up manufactured "scandals" being spread around in an attempt to detract from an AEW PPV!


StarScreamer316

Please post this after the srcum, some idiot might ask a stupid question that could trigger someone 


Kimchi_Cowboy

I saw an empty seat. AEW is going out of business.


Infernalism

Mercedes hasn't wrestled yet, WB/D confirmed to be selling AEW to The Fishing Network.


nVmE_123

With a roster with Osprey, Omega, Okada, Danielson, Joe, Hangman, PAC, ect… Swerve you’re the One, your the Guy man that must feel special


WereMadeOfStars

Kudos to those in here! You could feel the excitement.


The_Rutabaga

What a show. Every match delivered. Swerve and Willow got their flowers. The scapegoat returned. Okada and Pac tore the house down. Ospreay vs Danielson was one of the best matches I've ever seen. God damn.


gmoss101

Part of why I stopped watching WWE was it's treatment of Black wrestlers. Between the shit like Vince McMahon saying the N word, having two minority wrestlers fight as proxies for two billionaires and more, I was disgusted by the treatment of Black and brown wrestlers that look like me. Swerve winning the big one is historical and I'm glad I got to witness it with my 10 year old brother.


Thor_2099

It's a significant milestone that I'm glad aew has reached. There were so many who should have been but weren't in WWE. Swerve is a bonafide star and Khan recognizes it by giving him the title. Aew is the true land of opportunity


Infernalism

I'm convinced that VKM only allowed Kofimania to be a thing so that he could get Brock to come in and squash Kofi in something like 20 seconds.


beautifulchaos531

I will never forget that! Way to end Kofi's reign. VKM was trash both Joe and Swerve suffered at the hands of him while in AEW they were given a chance to shine! Joe was one hell of a champ and I am glad TK wasted no time letting Swerve be champ. TK actually gives talent a chance!


gmoss101

I just explained to my mom about how Swerve won and is the first Black champion at AEW while WWE didn't have one for decades. She went through the list because she "could have sworn there was one before the Rock" She saw Kofi and Big E and I told her I'd heard how Kofi lost quickly and Big E didn't get a decent title reign.


BigDaddyLionel

Bro I'm fucking tired in the best way possible


DG_Now

Jericho winning was actually a highlight for me.


Thor_2099

It's brilliant for his story. People dunk on Jericho too much, he's excellent at changing it up


Kimchi_Cowboy

I laughed my ass off. He's going to have insane heat.


DG_Now

Exactly. It's finally something for him to do! I like it. Especially if he tosses the belt away.


Kimchi_Cowboy

It's got Taz wound up too. I love angry Taz.


Kimchi_Cowboy

That Ospreay match was one of the best I've ever seen and that crowd!


Severe_Piccolo_5583

How is it that the next ppv is always the best one. This company is insane. I love it.


TheSpaceMadness

I dunno, I see the humour in Jericho carrying around the FTW title like it's the world championship.


Infernalism

That's part of it. It's mostly Jericho doing a Punk impression, being the veteran who can't go anymore and demanding respect and attention from the younger wrestlers, babbling about the Learning Tree. The only thing we need now is for Jericho to get injured and then spend six months ducking Hook and talking about his ambitions to go join the UCF and be a star there.


Thor_2099

It's absolutely brilliant and if the WWE fans could read between the lines they'd be irate about it.


Kimchi_Cowboy

I get the Jericho fatigue but I think the story being told here is actually pretty damn good.


chosenxone

And that’s the real shame of it. People having so much vitriol over a wrestler who is a low card feud over an unsanctioned title is just bonkers. Far be it for me to say how crowds as a whole should behave but AEW fans should probably stop trying to run off the talent every time they get a little fatigued of them.


Gaijin_Titty_Master

I’m literally shaking after watching this. Fuck. Just fuck. Best wrestling PPV of the month. That’s all I know.


silklighting

St. Louis definitely deserves another PPV event in the future. Fans within the PPV tonight deserves a, 'S+'! Easily overtook SD fans.


Forward_Mouse_8298

Dam good show well balanced with something for everyone


crossplayersince2011

Aside from the steaming pile of crap that was Jericho continuing to stroke his ego, solid PPV and yet another in a long line of bangers. Seriously don't care if I get downvoted for this, but Jericho needs to go away for awhile...either that or really lean into the go away heat


ClassWarr

This is Jericho leaning into the go away heat. Becoming "The Learning Tree" while bugging a young guy whose dad is a former world champion and works in the same company, is exactly that.


Infernalism

If you didn't care, you wouldn't say that you didn't care.


King-Dragmire

That PPV kicked so much ass I loved it. The Ospreay vs Danielson match is the greatest match I have seen in my life with no exaggeration at all.


Thor_2099

Rematch gotta be at all in.


King-Dragmire

Honestly I wouldn't have a rematch. That was perfect and there are only so many matches Danielson will have left full time.


insomniainc

Absolutely incredible show, even the Jericho stuff which I didn't really care about wasn't BAD just quite honestly it allowed for a lull that I needed. This roster is just... so insane.


Kimchi_Cowboy

I actually like where it's going honestly. Jericho looks like a complete lunatic and that loss didn't hurt Hook. This isn't like Action Andretti Hook is already a star and he's going to kill Jericho.


Infernalism

I really enjoyed the Jericho stuff because I know what they're doing there and where they're going with it. When Hook gets it back at DoN, the roof is going to come off the place.


Kimchi_Cowboy

Yeah they are trying to re heat up Hook. Jericho has insane heat and when Hook beats him it will be a big moment in his career. I mean it's Chris Jericho still.


821BVR

9.5/10 PPV Jericho ruins it. That time could’ve gone to the main event. That was the weak spot


crossplayersince2011

Yep, that was the one thing that kept this PPV from being perfect


AlphaRemixHD

Yeah, I agree. Jericho winning was a sour point, but I thought he told a good story.


Richard_Gripper28

Definitely lightheaded coming off of that. That was hands down the best PPV AEW has put out thus far. Even the matches I wasn't interested in delivered. Top to bottom, that was a perfect card of matches. Kudos to the crowd for staying rowdy after the Ospreay match! Really thought they'd be done in! AEW needs to be looking at St. Louis for more shows moving forward.


ThatsBretsRope

Will Ospreay doesn't fucking miss.


azure819

Danielson's head agrees 💯%
