Who is All Elite Wrestling's Iron Man? - AEW Revolution 2023 Review

[@Kingofb0ngstyle]

MJF vs Bryan had no downtime. It was the most entertaining ironman, really well done, perfect ending, with the sudden death, and how the falls worked.

[@charlesbaker7505]

Brock v Angle is still the best in my opinion, then Rock v HHH and this is probz third

[@runrafarunthebestintheworld]

@@nyghtmareinmi what? Pfft

[@BadAxeEntertainment]

No downtime? Did we watch the same match?

[@kanemichaeldodd]

When MJF almost "accidently" dropped the title during the introductions I knew this would be a classic match.

[@nd8471]

​@@CB-ci5ys you do realise WWE have been in the industry for more then 60 plus year so yeah they have obviously done it all. And WWE too copied their most famous finish from other wrestling feuds. It's just if you can make the finish make sense and have the crowd/viewers entertained and that match certainly did and was one of the best matches of wrestling not just AEW.

[@claymathewselevator8121]

MJF drinking 3 or 4 waters during that match and not having to pee is most impressive to me

[@GLJosh]

MJF Iron Bladder Champion?

[@disfiguringthegoddess1102]

Sweating that much helps

[@Matthew-LAMF]

​@@CB-ci5ys truth. My job is manual labor and I drink a ton of water and never have to pee.

[@ArcaneAzmadi]

Honestly, I thought (thanks to Taz's commentary about why drinking water is a bad idea) that they were setting up a fall for Brian where he'd hit MJF in the stomach and make him throw up, leaving him vulnerable to a roll-up. But on reflection that would have just been too messy and gross, even if it would also have been a nicely ironic payoff to MJF thinking he's so clever with the hidden water bottles.

[@NateDawg920]

He's sweating them out..true iron man

[@Alex_Fyrehart]

The funny thing I realised with this PPV is that Chris Jericho has NEVER won on a Revolution PPV. Curious if next year they'll actually have a story leading into it where Jericho is trying to "break the curse" of the PPV or something.

[@JBPlaysGames1]

I kid you not, when Justin Roberts started to say that the match would go "for one more fall" I for a split second thought he was gonna say "one more hour" just because TK would be the only person crazy enough to do that.

Same. I thought it was a perfectly good match in an unfortunate position. Plus it's fashionable right now to shit on Wardlow's booking.

It turned out the water in the kids face was apparently tequila which is pretty bad, but TK apparently also gave MJF a talking to and they did a lot for the kid and his mom during and after the show to make up for it. So all is good, but I'll be damned if that wasn't some peek heel carny shit right there. Loved the pay per view, loved the review, and I agree with all the ranks you gave!

I gotta be honest, it was so refreshing seeing a casket/buried alive match. One of the few matches they “invented”. Calgary did the ladder, the Hell In A Cell was inspired by Memphis Cage, TLC was just a hardcore match. Royal Rumble was just a battle Royal. Also I wish the hell they would put the rules for a Texas Deathmatch and use a real Texas Deathmatch, multiple falls and all. Would change a lot of the dynamic too I feel. Also I LOATHE the Wardlow haircut, I mean if he lost it an in hair vs hair then maybe you have some heat, but he’s just a dude. He’s much better when he had the Batista look going. Put him in a suit, give him a manager or someone similar to Ric Flair (or Main Event Mafia Sting).

[@mylesphobia7552]

I guess you could say that you Wardloathe his hair cut?

[@Mxyz]

They didn't invent it. It's how the buried alive match was set up in the one WWE game. You had to put your opponent in the casket in the grave spot.

[@BBoy4040]

I do miss the original rules of Texas Deathmatches, AEW just uses it as a Last Man Standing Match. Except when you tap out I guess????

[@theomega311]

@@BBoy4040 yeah it’s kind of fuzzy how their rules stack up, I guess it could be a last man standing match technically as the rules are the same. But there brutal brutal brutal Texas Deathmatches way back when (I know people get tired of hearing that). But essentially the way I remember it that was the only match on the card, that was it. If they had time they would use undercard guys and throw something together. But one of my fondest memories of those Texas Deathmatches was being able to do anything and multiple falls it made for great great build up. Not sure if fans would go for 90+ minutes matches anymore

[@fattiger6957]

Wardlow has lost all his cool factor when they started trying to humanize him. No one wants to see a giant muscleman giving emotional interviews. People want to see guys like him be badasses.

[@kahlerwhale9839]

It actually annoys me how much they killed Wardlows momentum over the last year. He was on fire this time last year, getting some of the biggest reactions every week. Then they gave him the TNT championship and had no idea what to do with him. AEW is/was really good at building up younger talent like Page, MJF, Wardlow, etc. and getting them to feel like big deals and then when it's time to capitalize on the momentum they always blow it. Whether they wait too long to pull the trigger or they completely blank once they do pull the trigger, it's very frustrating.

[@fattiger6957]

Yep. After Wardlow got the belt, they gave him no worthwhile storyline. Then they tried to humanize him by have him give emotional promos. Then they made him look like a chump when Joe took the belt off him and sent him off TV for weeks. And instead of Wardlow coming back and being a wrecking ball, they give him more sappy interviews. I think Tony Khan forgot why people cared about Wardlow in the first place.

[@jimbobjones9330]

I was at the show, and honestly, that was the match with the least interest from the crowd -- I'm pretty sure it was a 60/40 split for Joe. And it sucks, because Wardlow was a _god_ at some point, but they killed his momentum.

If both participants are outside the ring and the ref starts counting, if one person enters the ring while the other is on the outside, the one who got in the ring gets a win by count out which is good for one point.

Zero Hour/Buy In was a good "appetizer", especially If you love Lucha Bros. & Mark Briscoe kicking ass! Lots of interviews, many of them done by RJ City & they where funny. 0:00 It was a really good starter, wouldn't have mind if it had been a little longer, but it still told the story pretty well. 3.5/5. 01:55 I really liked it, especially the drama near the end & when the casket went down & poof, that was indeed awesome! 4/5. 04:27 A really great Trios match, The Elite always shine but here it was The House of Black who shined & them winning the title makes sense. 4/5. 06:10 You could clearly see that it was mostly Jamie Hayter & Ruby Soho who carried most of the match, I felt like Saraya was taking it easy because of her neck injury, but she was still great when she did wrestle. The twist felt very obvious, at first I thought Ruby was gonna be like the "ultimate tweener" which would definitely have been something different. 3.5/5. 08:28 This one was definitely a favorite, I freaking LOVE hardcore wrestling! 🤘 4.5/5. 10:59 It wasn't bad, but it wasn't great either & it was sadly the weakest match. But I still liked it. At first I thought Samoa Joe was gonna win & on Dynamite he would lose it to Powerhouse Hobbs. Now I'm not sure, we'll see... 3/5. 12:35 I was pretty sure that The Acclaimed would win the Tag Team belts back, but it seems that The Ass Boys will hold on to it for awhile. I really, REALLY hope that FTR wins those Tag Team belts making them 2nd time AEW Tag Team Champions! 3.5/5 15:23 Not my kind of match, but they really did make it work & I was genuin excited near the end! 😃 4.5/5. My rate: A. Last year really wasn't AEW's year, especially after the CM Punk Media Scrum thingy, it really wasn't fair to put that much heat on the company because of one guy's ego outburst! It's really sad that Punk became like that, I really dig his work in the ring! But this was a GREAT START for AEW this year & this is definitely one of their best pay per views! I really hope AEW has a great year, they deserve it!

I was pulling for House of Black to win , but I didnt think it would happen even through most of the match I thought Elite would pull through . Nice surprise . I was stoked ! Two major spots took me out of the main event though . I mean one nutshot got TWO pins consecutively ? Them ball racks happen in every match and usually dont score one pin . My second gripe is the diving headbutt that grazed MJFs shoulder but yet he arose bloodier than both guys combined from the Texas deathmatch !!! I still liked it alright though . I thought it still had an odd flow to it . Maybe Ill watch it again and see how I feel .

Wardlow is just a man kicking ass

Wrestlers watching their own PPV match backstage will always get a pop outta me

[@TheGreatLKHS]

Don't feel bad, Brian. I have been watching AEW since its launch and subscribed to the Being The Elite since the pandemic shutdown, but I still struggle to tell the Buck brothers from each other. 🤦😂

The MJF/BD match is the best match I’ve seen in 15 years

The Fork spot in Mox vs Hangman was hard to watch

[@couchpotatoluchalibre]

My only real qualm with this show is the amount of blood. Like, at some point, there's a line where it goes from "adding to the story" to "tasteless violence."

[@Lostmymind1]

Wrestling is supposed to be a simulation of what would happen if two people had a fight. Now you add in things like barbed wire, and casket matches, and fighting for 60 minutes, and yeah, I can believe those situations would lead to a lot of blood. The one I don't understand, is how/why Dax Hardwood got busted open so fast, and so hard. That one I don't get. The rest of the bleeding on the show made sense.

hangman and moxly was as real as it gets. match of the year for me so far.
