Great show WB should make more shows with AEW

[@chaoticoldbore]

The look on Eddies face when they put the bib on him is GOLD.

[@thereelpineapple]

I love the fact this was a concept that RJ City and Renee workshopped on a Hey EW episode, this was such a fun premiere episode.

[@ImakittyLAWL]

Renee is honestly one of the most valuable signings that AEW has had. This show was fun to watch. I kind of wish they'd show a little more of the matches because I think this is the great kind of product to get people who might not watch or haven't watched in a long time into wrestling and at least curious to check more out.

[@ricbulow]

Love how Eddie is all like "I just came here to f***ing eat"...

[@wtfuchattin]

It's Friday. You know what that means - Eddie Kingston cooks for his enemies.

[@DJxSpeedy]

you mean "Eddie Kingston cooks his enemies" ???? 😂

[@jayczzzya]

And his enemies are served cold

[@BrittishAnger]

And his Frenemies

[@ravenradios]

Love it hell yeah

[@chrisdaddy4637]

Gets served to his enemies you mean!!

[@RJCity1]

Let's fucking eat.

[@chanakyaks3936]

Can't wait

[@Shulanstarchild]

Hey RJ Feed Eddie while singing Judas lol

[@japarker006]

once this show finds it rhythm, its gonna cook. Great concept, with the perfect hosts. Congrats RJ, you are doing BIG things.

[@kuhpunkt]

The video has just been posted and yet you commented on it 2 days ago. Wizard!

[@olesideburns]

Wow just out of the gate with the potty mouth. You need a visit from Danhausen.

[@PG-tas]

You can tell how much love Eddie has for Renee. She gets away with things no one else could 😂

[@CC927]

She’s probably the only female that he has a soft spot for because of the bromance with his bestie Mox.

[@snowmizer8011]

I am happy AEW finally created a venue to leverage Rene's interview skillset. This should be a great weekly experience.

[@edbain6495]

Lol, good one

When Eddie Kingston was asked when the last time he cried, of course your gut instinct is that he would say I don't cry I'm a man. I love Eddie Kingston. Kudos to Eddie for being a real man. Love ya bro.

[@johndoe9458]

We've all seen him cry on TV though lol

[@adammakey3047]

I think he was pretty clear about his feelings in the video he did about mental health. Even my non-wrestling mutuals were sharing it.

[@TheStephanieikay]

Can Eddie be a permanent third host? I love the three of them together.

[@porkchopexpress6890]

Seriously. These 3 together permanently for this show would be tv gold. And whoever the guest will be can be the 4th and 5th person lol 😂 cuz these 3 are awesome. Eddie going at RJ is just to funny.

[@mfm4205]

with the news coming out that's he gonna be on the shelf for 8-12 months, this would be great way to keep him around aew.

[@SIXTHREEONEFOURTHREENIONEOOSEV]

BEAUTIFULLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL EYES FACE SMILEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

[@debbiedukes4933]

I'm all over this. Already imagining all the potential guests. When I think food I think JR BBQ

If they don’t do Osprey in a Nando’s what are we even doing here? 😅

Dinner and a Movie for wrestling is sick genius

[@_Pauper_]

Dinner & a Movie is how I saw The Blues Brothers for the first time when I was 16 and blues changed my life

To experience it yes but to watch someone else do it? Naw lol

Wrestle Aunties gonna COOK!

[@FFA441]

“We need to watch wrestling as intellectuals” our first guest is the most normal dude that ever watched wrestling

[@mrdavis8814]

RJ/Renee have that Excalibur/Taz AEW Dark chemistry that I've been missing.

[@MadPanda13]

This episode gets 5 eyebrows! That was fun as hell, cant wait to see more. To the haters... this is not a ripoff of anything. TBS used to have a show called "Dinner and a Movie" it came on right after WCW. This is TBS and AEW riffing off of that. Find something else to hate on and be fake outraged about, this ain't it. Eddie, your fans love you, thanks for everything you do. Lets go Renee and R.J.!! Cant wait for the next one ❤

[@katyisaproudhayter]

2 seconds in and my chaotic aunt and uncle are already fighting this is gonna be good :)

[@hironsgaming]

There are no words to describe how excited I am for this, wanted a Renee and RJ show for too damn long

[@aliciadekle2318]

Anything that gets more RJ into my life is all I want.

[@guyvizard549]

Right? I don't even care about wrestling, but I could watch RJ read a phone book. I love HEY! Ew.

[@DarrenKWilliams]

Eddie really earned and worked his ass off. Grateful to see the rise of this man

[@AquaPTMurray]

I love everything about this! Also shout out to Eddie to get well and his fitness/diet coach Cezar Bononi. Eddie is putting in the work. Get well soon brother

[@blackjelly27]

I don't know if I should wrestle him or date him 🤣🤣🤣 Kingston is hilarious

[@citizenbrain8065]

This is such a great format, and Eddie was such a wonderful first guest. The live chat with you guys was hilarious. Definitely keep doing that 😂

[@jivesauce7540]

RJ and Renee are just treasures. They have such fun interview skills. Eddie was a great guest.

[@28AlexAnn]

There's nobody out there like Eddie Kingston. Love that he doesn't give a shit and he's so unapologetically himself. Would love at some point to get Hangman, Darby and Toni Storm on this. Really can't wait for more.

[@ryanmccann2539]

Fantastic stuff. I dig how relaxed Eddie is about everything. RJ and Renee are great interviewers and hosts.

[@MrBRS559]

Not the dude going for a hug & Eddie totally ignoring him 😂🤣💀

[@JCJHn]

And later he kept saying he has a punchable face 😂😂

[@WT1wL]

What part. I don't wanna wq ch the whole thing

[@Casey420]

Lol he went straight for Renee to hug her and didn't even notice RJ extending his arms for a hug as well😂 or maybe he just ignored him like u said

[@Loungelizardatwar]

I couldn’t help but fall in love with Eddie Kingston during this

[@CC927]

Me too. When him & Mox were feuding last summer,I started getting curious about Eddie. I spent a mini fortune on indie dvds just to see Eddie’s promos & matches. Him & Mox are truly soulmates (in a non sexual way).

[@destructo2300]

I freakin love Eddie Kingston. I'm over here with tears in my eyes😂😂😂😂😂 I love the bit between him and RJ City.

[@MakBot]

Eddie doesn't do bits brotha

[@marieplank6547]

Very great show! I love watching Eddie interact with Renee, very fun together. Can’t wait to watch more!

[@eburb8147]

We need an angle where Eddie's opponent just keeps complimenting him until he passes out.

[@adrianjporter5295]

Yeah like mox lmao 😂😂😢😅

[@willyousay]

This is a really good concept. I hope TBS puts in on Fridays after Rampage.

[@erinhaley2202]

Eddie winning at Grand Slam was literally the best part of my birthday!!!!

[@TheReverendBenjaminPowers]

"Eddie, I heard that you're from New York." The delivery and response sent me Great first outing!

[@DarthKotEI]

💀

[@WhyIsGhostInTheArena]

I wheezed tbh

[@xenogrug]

Thankyou! The beautiful Renee is soo good in this setting. And Eddie was fantastic. he is so real compared to many other wrestlers in AEW and even other companies. RJ for comic relief as always made for some funny lighthearted moments. Will totally be watching this whenever its on from over here in Australia! Please sir, can i have some more?!

[@willisouthside]

This is probably going to be my new favorite show. Puts together my love of cooking shows and wrestling. I hope this show does really well. Love AEW.

[@mcbuchhokw]

I need to rewatch that whole Penta and Fenix match! Great job on the episode 👏

[@juliebeeson8134]

dude i love this show, the subtle dig RJ gives is hilarious. What a good paring with Renee and Rj

[@LKW_Sports]

Very excited to see this become a show 😊 & it's awesome that you got Eddie as the first guest 🤩

[@suplexorcist316]

Great concept! Fun show! Huge fan of RJ, Renee and of course Eddie. I thought he was the perfect first guest. Looking forward to more!!

[@rozodru4790]

so happy RJ and Renee finally have a show together.

[@Casey420]

I wish Eddie would join the Death Riders. I loved him and Mox cutting promos together when they had that short lived tag run. Him and Mox together is gold.

[@AEWBlog]

Love it! LFG Wrestle Aunts! And the first guest Eddie Kingston! 🔥

[@DeadWirePromotions]

I think this is a great concept. The Wrestle Aunts both have their own unique interview styles, & mix it w/ food & wrestling like this makes for a fun show.

[@francisco_m7849]

😂 if you gotta do it go big. Go Eddie. 😊 this was a great episode. I did not know what to expect but this actually turned out to be an awesome show.

[@albert_ponce]

Eddie going at it like he just got out lol

[@Elkott]

Free food, I'd be the same

[@RBlair69]

This was his cheat day, he said "Fuckin' send it!"

[@frederickpolk]

I really enjoyed this show! Eddie Kingston is fun to watch and the banter between Renee & R.J. is classic comedy. Will definitely watch more episodes!

[@randallfinney5541]

Show was great. Loved having Eddie as the first guest and look forward to the next episode.

[@TotallyRadicalShow]

Fun first episode. RJ and Eddie are always fun to watch and especially together. Renee brings the show together with her constant professionalism and friendly vibe. My suggestion for future episodes is to maybe have matches that are more specifically relevant to the guest so that they have more to say about them. Doesn't have to be ones they are in just ones that maybe stand out to them or they are close friends with one of the wrestlers involved.

[@CC927]

Eddie just being himself is something truly special & takes a lot of balls,especially when you’re struggling both physically & mentally in a very judgmental world.

[@billbobdagr8]

I love Eddie, he's such a genuine dude..

[@Ravnz51]

Kingston is just a real one.

9:11 “eddie, i heard you’re from new york…” lolol i died

[@Dreamdidit]

eddie is a gem man. such a relatable guy.

[@jasonjako5329]

I absolutely LOVE this!! Renee & RJ were brilliant like always and are the perfect personalities to host.. Definitely tapped into the nostalgia of Dinner & A Movie, lol, I'm all for this show EVERY week, now bring on episode 2!

[@conorhogan7575]

Eddie is such chaotic first guest lol. RJ and Renee are always great and the production value on this is top notch. Props to everyone involved.

[@KillerFknWolf]

worth the watch just for EK's face when he' getting the bib put on 🤣😂

[@Yadiloveswrasslin]

Eddie is definitely uncle vibes. When I met him, I was so fucking nervous but he was so sweet!!!!

[@Magic-Lyyy22]

Please get Jon Moxley on next 😂 I giggled at Eddie I love his personality so much, and I know Jon will make me giggle too!!

[@soccerojdoj]

Perhaps we should wait til the Mox Hey AEW airs before scheduling any other Mox/RJ City events. Although, a special edition Food Fight might be interesting...

[@adammakey3047]

After listening to Mox's biography I need him to talk about sandwiches more.

[@thunder2708]

Danielson is shaking his head at this menu

[@AEWBlog]

Haha loved every second! Wrestle Aunts and Eddie are the best!

[@connieseville6637]

We need more episodes PLEASE!! Thank you🙏🙏🙏

[@MrTeamGuy]

I've seen some Eddie Kingston work before his AEW debut. But, AEW Eddie Kingston run made him one of the top favorite wrestlers in this past decade.

[@DaAustinz]

This was really damn good. I am so excited for the next episode! Ya'll should def go through the entire roster but would love to see Ricky Starks very soon! 20+ mins is perfect amount of time and 3 matches/3ratings is perfection. Love this already so much

[@dannyvalentin1585]

RJ is such an amazing talent, pair him up with Renee and you got yourselves a modern day dynamic duo

[@ryanvazquez2301]

Caught Eddie’s shirt at Worlds End in NYC he’s definitely the man.

[@bl00sub]

RJ and Renee's chemistry is *chef's kiss*. They're always going to be able to get the best out of their guest. Gonna be looking forward to new eps every week.

[@CC927]

I was there at Grand Slam,the crowd was so loud & happy for Eddie🐺

[@brandong2972]

Just saw the ad during Collision, can’t wait to watch this every week!!

[@holdencaulfield4808]

This is great! Hope there is more of these. Takes me back to Dinner and a Movie on TBS.

[@kevinmccaighy8380]

This is such a brilliant idea for a series and i really love this first episode!!

Thank you y Muchisimas Gracias so much for this AEW & TBS! This is Gold! Lucha Bros as the very first match for this premiere show is very special to me as an eternal Lucha fan!❤

Can’t believe I hve to search for this once a week. No way in hell I’m subbing to tbs 😂

[@PeaceOutBee]

I'm only 6 minutes in and I immediately want so much more of this. Keep it coming, please!

[@Robology13]

RJ & Eddie had great chemistry. They couldn't be more opposite, and it worked. I watched the whole video, really enjoyed it.

[@nelly.mariee]

“Yeah so I’m here. So where’s the food” meeee asf 🤣

[@ArcaneAzmadi]

I love Eddie Kingston. He's my favourite guy in the business today. And he does indeed deserve it, or to be precise, he has indeed earned it. I hope his leg gets better soon.

[@coolioso808]

Yeah, maybe the crowd chant should also be updated. Instead of "You deserve it!" it could be "You have earned it!" Same syllables. Could catch on!

[@CC927]

Him being injured hopefully means that he can return to the indies until he’s better again.

[@stevenh8386]

This was much more entertaining than I thought it would be. Eddie was pretty funny actually. Also, it was cool to see some old matches that I either missed or forgot about.

[@ApolloTheLeader]

How can anyone hate Eddie Kingston?

[@UnexpectedDanger]

Jealousy

[@elmoustachiosavard4969]

Finally put some AEW history in there for everyone, show some love for Eddie and his incredible journey. Great job Renee and RJ, I agree with Eddie on RJ having a punchable face 😂😂😂

[@tedgray6266]

Is this the start of bringing back dinner and a movie?!?! That was epic stuff

[@amossparks4542]

Just as many fans in the building for this as there is on TV 😂

[@user-sv3xl3fe7e]

Wow… I really enjoyed this show. Great idea. Also seeing some of those clips from early AEW matches was really cool. Private Party vs Young Bucks was so good. Hopefully Private Party gets a push. They are so talented.

Eddie Kingston dying inside in three acts 1:25 Oh , RJ, yay T.T 2:32 Do it for the Food do it for the Food 7:50 For just a second Eddie Kingston receives a hug to the heart 12:30 - 13:58

[@cesarcanete3402]

Eddie Kingston is the very first AEW Continental Champion, first ever AEW American Triple Crown Champion, Very first guest on this show & the very first one on here to immediately ask where the food is lol.

[@mztik]

Eddie Kingston is just awesome

[@norinradd8969]

This show is a fantastic idea. I really enjoy seeing tge AEW talent hang and be more chill and relaxed

[@romanbanias2218]

Next time y'all are in Winnipeg, I've got a few ideas for restaurants to check out. First up, The Brazen Hall, a great Norse-themed place with incredible food. Rae's Bistro has never, ever disappointed me. And finally, Little Bones Wings is the best place for chicken wings in the whole city. A crazy number of sauce and rub choices, some great side pairings... you can't go wrong!

[@UnicornCharmer]

This was so great! Timeless Toni Storm needs to be a guest at some point

[@The_Farwall]

I adore all three of these people, this is a treat.

How can you not like Eddie, he's just himself.

[@WhyIsGhostInTheArena]

I'm absolutely in love with this concept and cannot wait to see more!

[@ramonaludwig6390]

I love the concept for this show. Eddie’s eyebrows deserve their own show. Come to St.Louis for some fried ravioli and IMO’s pizza.

[@wstine79]

This is what I've been waiting for. A show that embraces RJ City and Renee Paquette's chemistry, cooking, and wrestling knowledge.

[@marmz69]

Great start to the show.That was a lot of fun.Renee is just made for this.Cant wait for the next one.I give it 5 Eddie Kingston eye brows!
