If it's happening,the mess could be indicative of a one foot out the door approach by either side mixed with a very short, contractual window as to when they can announce the swap over of services.

I don't think it's due yet...but I wouldn't be shocked if a Wednesday,a Prime announcement got made

Wouldn't be surprised in the slightest if the push for Amazon PPVs is leading to a Prime Video push for AEW (or a move to MAX)

Regardless,I think it's only a matter of time before they move in with another streamer for big money over the subscription method.

Feel AEW is likely to end up moving from Triller soon.

Triller got in on the ground floor and got a VERY good deal for themselves that's only gotten better as more content has been made and landed there

I think the streaming rights for Europe are likely too lucrative for AEW to use the sub route.

It sounds like it lives once again

Wrestling and Anime too.

Dear lord we've never been more back.

Dan and Jeff bullshiting about fast food is exactly the kind of content that a new era of Giant Bomb should be founded upon.

I know you've had your controversies over game reviews that have gone over poorly with publishers...

....but be careful with this one, journalistic criticism of Saudi Prince backed endeavors rarely goes well.

It's not for fans of its now 30 year old namesake.

It's not for Bungie fans who want them to do legally distinct Halo.

It's not for Destiny fans who,well, god knows what they actually want.

It's not for extraction shooter fans because they're playing one already.

It's for the ghost of Jim Ryan

This thing will not exist in this form for very long.

It's either gonna be Conord'ed or heavily retooled.

The initial model reveal didn't exactly do the design itself justice.

Very love it or hate it.

But, it has absolutely grown on me the more I've seen

I wish they'd give it to the women instead.

Toni, Stat, Willow and Rosa
Bayne, Penelope,Skye and Julia

Have the most unspeakable levels of violence happening while Willow's theme plays throughout

I say no....but only because I think it's time the women get the Anarchy in the Arena match and the Bucks/BCC/Death Riders have done them to death

Toni,Stat,Willow,Rosa
Bayne,Ford,Julia,Skye

(Though Either that or yours needs Willow's theme playing while violent hell breaks loose)

I remember everyone at the time cracking up when this was first announced as the Poster/promo material for Hell In A Cell that year because R Truth was barely getting a sniff of a 3 hour early 2010s RAW, let alone a PPV appearance in the Cell.

Oh no, I get that, I'm more just making a joke at how notoriously unreliable it is for anyone to use the PPV advertisement as anything but marketing for the "feel" rather than the specifics.

That's the job of promo packages and hype videos.

The cynic in me does think there may have been some pivoting from existing plans(I think Swerves specific direction has changed due to Hurt Syndicate getting over as a face team rather than a heel Bobby singles vehicle)

But no, there's been seeds here for a while, with Perry at bare minimum
April 7, 2025 at 12:49 PM
The stare down and back away from them.

The "you're a good kid" with Perry

Zero interaction or push back against Okada while he was flying solo.

Oh there was definitely a connection here the whole time.
