I know I’m alone on this, but when The Bucks did the package piledriver/double stomp and Excalibur said it was a callback to the past. I legit forgot about the Lucha Bros and my mind went to Kevin Steen for the piledriver.

Shoutout Big Kev! Matt Rushmore 4-Life. #AEWWrestleDream 🤼‍♂️

But seriously, what’s the end game for this Ultimone storyline? How many titles is enough before she starts dropping them?

I assume the Full Gear match is only for Stat’s title, so, similar to the Toni match, Mone could lose and still have her gazillion titles. While Stat finally defeats her. #AEW

Can we just for a second give some major props to the Swiss horse known as Claudio Castagnoli?

The accuracy in which it took for him to launch poor Darby and not cripple him with that gorilla press throw was insane. #AEW 🤼‍♂️

Tony Khan is a lunatic in forcing me to boo Shibata. But if I have to, I have to. I didn’t see The Opps turn coming at all and love when wrestling still surprises me after all these years. #AEWWrestleDream 🤼‍♂️

Any match on this card just might steal the show tonight. #AEWWrestleDream has the potential to be one of the top shows of the year.

He’d be a great choice. Part of me hopes it’s Jay White. I think the Bang Bang Gang (as snake bitten as they’ve been with injuries) has a ceiling and Jay is a much better heel.

Ryan Howard @theryanhoward.bsky.social · 3d

Definitely. I’m curious who takes the reins for the group if they continue. Any of the current members, a new member, Gabe Kidd maybe?

Ryan Howard @theryanhoward.bsky.social · 3d

I honestly think #AEWWrestleDream needs to end with the I Quit match.

Especially if Moxley loses and the rest of the Death Riders have to make an awfully difficult decision regarding their leader. 1 year ago from when they all put Danielson out to pasture.

I’m genuinely amped to see what happens 🤼‍♂️

I would’ve had Joe choke out Hangman during #AEWDynamite, then have Page return on Collision and order Joe back out, telling him he never tapped out and he’ll never tap come Saturday.

Just felt the World Title program was an afterthought for a 3 hour show. Following that great face off last week. 🤼‍♂️

I like Bill, a solid heater, he’s just always felt like someone they don’t know what to do with, regardless of the promotion.

Having him & Keith take L after L while Jericho is gone and perhaps never coming back benefits both of them zero. Zero idea what the end game is for them.

Ryan Howard @theryanhoward.bsky.social · 5d

If Jericho is indeed gone from #AEW, I get it. But, he should put over or finish up the Big Bill/Bad Apple story before leaving for good. I don’t know if that falls on Tony, Jericho (or both), but having him just walk out on them leaves Bill & Keith gaining absolutely nothing from this #wrestlesky 🤼‍♂️

Agreed. If you take away the HOT stuff, EVIL is a very solid worker and I enjoy his matches until the shenanigans. Which, there’s just too many for me.

Ryan Howard @theryanhoward.bsky.social · 6d

I questioned Aaron Wolf being saddled with EVIL for his first pro match at WK, but if Wolf completely steamrolls House of Torture and stands tall (and let’s face it, Gedo will never do that, as he can’t quit EVIL), he’d be a massive babyface right out the gate. #NJPW 🤼‍♂️

Takeshita’s first order of business as IWGP Champion should be to bring back the old title.

I’ve tried, really I have, but it’s still insanely ugly to me, regardless of how fantastic the actual holder of the title is. 🤼‍♂️
