AEW Dark Side of the Ring is gonna be EPIC

[@quentil]

I'm a fan of Cornette, and also a fan of AEW. I'm also an Upstate NYker. So I was at the Albany show a week ago. Couple general thoughts: By the end of the night, nobody really cared about the Rampage main event. The crowd (myself included) was pretty spent, and while I love Samoa Joe, I don't really care about the RoH TV Title. I left immediately after the match ended, and honestly, would have probably left a little earlier if I wasn't with some others. Random thoughts: Britt got about the 3rd or 4th biggest woman's pop of the night, after Hayter, Storm, and (maybe) Penelope. Moxley, Danielson, and Danhausen were the biggest male pops. Show itself was good, crowd was hot, tickets were cheap, beer was cold and only slightly overpriced. I'd certainly see AEW live again. That said, I'm very tired of seeing RoH stuff in AEW and will be happy to see it gone. And I don't mean that as a slam toward RoH. It's just, I don't watch AEW to watch RoH, ya know?

Since Jim started calling marvez officer barbrady I can't stop seeing it lol. He looks exactly like him 🤣

[@Grixxx]

Disingenuous about Ethan Page, the crowd cheered for him louder than the rest.

[@jdog2525]

That's true they really did

[@KyleS3m3noff]

Yeah, I just posted using the exact same word (disingenuous), then scrolled down and saw this. When he does that blatantly biased shit, it just gives his naysayers examples to point at.

[@dennishenderson4113]

Love listening to you guys, I've been under the weather I am a 2 time champion of cancer

Get well soon mate

Thanks

You're a hero!!

[@shanebagin]

Congrats keep up the fight. I am 7 years in remission myself. 😊🍻💨

[@johnnygrind77]

For years now, I never understood how Danielson is vegetarian/vegan, but loves having his chest turned into ground beef...

[@kristenjones4306]

Hathaway talked all that time and still didn’t explain why Morrissey’s first name is W

[@KyleS3m3noff]

The annoying thing about that is how awkwardly the name doesn't so much roll off the tongue as just collapse out of the mouth. 3 syllables alone for a single letter when something like Billy Morrissey might not be much more exciting but at least it's easier to say.

[@Ted_Bell]

Title tournaments are so frequent now. I wonder what else they could do in situations like these.

[@AnthonyAnalog]

Start professionally wrestling (ie little to no actual contact so ppl can remain relatively healthy) instead of this half shoot stronk style bullshit but what do I know 🤣🤣🤣

[@youtubebannedme4207]

get a better booker

[@malikevans2615]

Battle royals?

[@SportPhilosophies]

Their ranking system is designed for situations like this to prevent the need for a tournament. Yet they treat their rankings like they are meaningless and indie smarks love tournaments.

[@patrickboian8545]

@@SportPhilosophies Especially with dudes like Sami in them you know the finals can only be 1 of maybe 2 options. Everyone knew as soon as we daw the brackets it would be Bryan and Moxley.

[@prince.fatalis]

5:20 "They're doing indie show spots with green girls." Been somewhat like that since day one, lol.

[@DarkBlueBaker]

Okay I am sorry, no disrespect to real Luigis or fans of our beloved green overall'ed hero. Whenever I hear about this guy I can't help but think of the Golden Girls. Sophia had a cousin who was mentally ill and his imaginary friend was named "Little Luigi", they played bocce ball together.

[@thegale8377]

picture it sicily

[@LMLR187]

I think Corny was onto something with Jericho who is now the ROH World Champion.

[@LMLR187]

@@MrManfly he neither won the impact title, the nwa title and he'll never win the ecw title. Unless he drops it quickly to Danielson as part of their feud, I really can't see a long-term plan with him as champ.

[@DolFunDolhpinVtuber]

Dynamite 1.2 million. Luigi's Pizza = Needle Mover.

[@QAZ-OMEN]

What a shocker , diva punk and the clowns are not on the show and it was good . OMG

[@MrManfly]

Ya this past Wednesday’s show at Arther Ashe stadium was pretty good too and again no Bucks, Omega or Punk !! 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@Zantar45]

36:30 Matt Hardy mentioned that Jeff is coming back new and improved, thats probably why Darby Allin was challenged, to set up the return of Jeff.

[@DonDiesel85]

Aaahaaha yooo between 24:12 & 26:18 Ol’ Jimmy had me straight up cheesin’❗️

[@Cruising_On_Lake_Havasoma]

Nobody told Corny that you can only bring a sign to AEW shows if they say something about a video game? You're not allowed to bring signs that mention wrestling.

[@gustifikrifauzi3735]

[@fuk1267]

“Me like video too”

[@dennishenderson4113]

Jungle boy is the stupidest name ever in wrestling

[@jonspreadthedread]

I liked it but with Luchasaurus getting out of the pic, he should go with Jungle Jack or just Jack Perry. Make it a coming of age angle and put the All Atlantic on him.

[@doogienights2507]

Have to switch his entrance off when the wife comes in so she doesn't think I'm watching gay porn when he's in those tiny pants in the jungle...

[@sammmm87]

Swayback Moxley is funny as hell lol

[@Mr.Hopper1]

So has anyone found the video of harlem heat and the big sign?

[@billwebber400]

My only appreciation of Moxley was when he was a member of The Shield. anything else he's just horrible. A lot of people say you've seen one Ric Flair match you've seen them all Rick's been around for 50 plus years Moxley will not be. And how did he score Renee she's gorgeous!!!

[@insupportofjunhado]

Well, if Darby Allin decides he does want to get paid to do life risking stunts he's going to have one hell of a resume.

[@iceberg2013]

Officer Barbrady😂😂😂

[@sonicplys64]

In WWE, Daniel Bryan and Jericho would be a PPV main event big fight feel. In AEW, they look bush league and low rent. That's why they are getting barely one million viewers as apposed to getting 3 million plus in WWE.

[@stanistevens]

Evel Corn-evel!

[@__RYN__]

11:50 Right Tony Khan isn't angling MJF vs Garbage Moxley burying the main event for Grand Slam here. Where Bryan Danielson feeds for 15 minutes for a cold flat submission finish to get Garbage Moxley over because he needs it

[@__RYN__]

52:15 Jamie Hayter the only one that looks real besides Kris Statlander. Sides with the heels where they teased a turn on Britt Baker. Gee I wonder why? another top face Paige from WWE from 5 years ago

[@danniles3315]

"Looked like a 40 year old pot pie" 🤣🤣🤣

[@insupportofjunhado]

Jim Cornette: "Another chance to kill Matt Hardy!" Brian Last: "I can't let this happen lying down! I'm supposed to be the one who kills Matt Hardy!" Jim: "Settle down Brian."

[@lastar106]

You guys missed. When both guys was on the mat. Aubrey is just looking at them and you can see a fan counting.

[@benespinosa6725]

All Tournament wrestling does that make sense whatsoever if not someone come up with a better name since AEW does a ton of Tournaments Jon Moxley vs Sammy Guevara was a great Match and it's Because Jon Moxley didn't bleed.

[@davidratty2242]

Brian: "AEW is not good right now." When was it ever?

[@Popsicle17-gtag]

I agree Brian.. who wouldn’t go after Anna Jay Lol

and austin

[@foxmcloud9901]

I think the acclaimed will win aew wttc tonight

[@Sky_Blaze]

They did in a very weird way the match went down hill after caster just randomly jumped off the top rope selling his knee and everyone looked lost going half speed.

[@hughmorris2078]

Mjf will be champ by the end of tonight

[@kylecollopy9262]

It'll be the firm vs the j.a.s. at Stadium stampede, Gunn club aew tag champs, and mjf as the aew world champion, my prediction lmfao

[@KyleS3m3noff]

I know Jim has a black belt in grudge-holding and that's, whatever - it's how he rolls and that's his thing. But it gets kinda frustrating when it gets in the way of being fair in his reviews of what he actually watched. I don't really carry water for Ethan Page either way, but for him to completely disregard the entire point of his Luigi/Danhausen interaction was - as he clearly stated - that he's sick of seeing these jokes that don't take it seriously, and instead just say that now he's a joke wrestler interacting with the other joke wrestlers? Come on, man. I love ya, but shit like that is just giving your naysayers examples to point at and use to call you disingenuous.

[@ssss8740]

FIRST lets go Russo

[@arcacanin4586]

Jay Lethal puts over a younger talent but he is the one that is buried? No wonder John Cena went over every young talent he faced. He would have been the one buried according to Jim.

[@thirdrateduelistwithafourt3783]

What an incredible Dynamite. It's no surprise Tony Khan is back to back booker and promoter of the year :)

[@guybroyles48]

It's so funny when he talks about certain moves looking like they're working together. Even when wrestling is at its best it's obvious they're working together. For example, when it's done to perfection, the way they throw each other into the ropes tells anyone with a brain that they're working together. I don't think it's supposed to look like a real fight. People are totally aware that's not what an actual fight looks like. There may have been a time when audiences bought it as real fights. Even then, any man who had been in an actual fight or two would've known that wasn't what that was.

I like how on Hannibal TV they were talking to Patera about how Omega and the Young Bucks would rather play video games back at the hotel room than heading to bar and banging hot chicks. 🙃

[@AnthonyAnalog]

Even tho the elite and useless fuckboys, Bucks are married (maybe to each other idk idc) and Kenny loves Kota. So yeah it would make sense they'd go game and make extra revenue doing that instead. Toxic heternomativity is toxic, and needing literal poison to convince other to copulate with you isn't a sign of natural masculinity, it's a sign of absolute weakness.

[@natebaxter9551]

The Bucks are weirdo pseudo Christian and Kenny prefers the company of men, so it makes sense.

[@thedoctor3528]

So they're not degenerates is what you are telling me
