When does AEW actually start? Is it also going to be a weekly thing?
They've announced Double or Nothing which is a second All In show later this year but apart from that I don't think they've said what the normal schedule will be.
They said their second show would be in Jacksonville and raise money for gun crime charities, but there was no dates mentioned. The two venues though are basketball/ice hockey size arenas, so they're aiming pretty big already and would double TNA's attendance record in one go if they come close to a sellout.
AEW needs to come to the UK.
Although it mightn't be as enjoyable as ICW in the grotty Academy in Liverpool. I mean, who cares if the oily muscle men can wrestle, when you can drink beer out of two-pinters and heckle Drew McIntyre about Taryn Terrell?

What sort of standard are the old episodes in? HD quality?Originally Posted by phonics
I tried doing the same Boom. I forgot that I used to watch the 1 hour version back in the day, there's so much dross.
I used their 'Best of' function after that which is quite good.
That app is a work of art though. I've used it on everything from phone, appletv, monster desktop to crappy laptop that can't even run pornhub and it works perfectly on them all. Every Sports Broadcaster should be hiring that developer.
During said binge I got to see quite a bit of Sunny. Jesus she was attractive. The peak moment might have been the midget tag team match where as you can see in the below gif, she wears a tiny pair of hot pants which clearly wasn't revealing enough as they have zips up the side so you can get a bit of extra thigh.
I believe they're upscaled to HD.
I've had no issues with quality.
Keith Lee's voice is fucking superb.
I would pay to have some audiobooks he's recorded.
He's the best.

WWE today officially announced the WWE Worlds Collide Tournament during Royal Rumble weekend as part of Axxess. The tournament will feature talent from the NXT, NXT UK and 205 Live brands. The tournament will start as a 15 man battle royal on Saturday, which will determine the first round matches for the tournament beginning later that day. The winner of the battle royal will receive a bye in the first round.
The tournament will conclude on Sunday at the final Axxess session. The winner of the tournament will be awarded a future title shot.
Here are the wrestlers chosen:
From NXT
Adam Cole
Velveteen Dream
Dominik Dijakovic
Keith Lee
Otis Dozovic
From NXT UK
Mark Andrews
Tyler Bate
Travis Banks
Jordan Devlin
Zack Gibson
From 205 Live
Cedric Alexander
Humberto Carrillo
Tony Nese
Drew Gulak
TJP
The winner will be able to challenge for any title across those 3 brands too. Interesting idea and there should be some cracking matches there. Adam Cole/Velveteen Dream against Tyler Bate would be amazing.
My money is on Shane O Mac.
Kushida's last match is against Tanahashi.
"The problem was the success of All In changed the value structure. Paul Levesque worked hard at getting all four into WWE. Page was offered main roster money to work NXT, where he’d have been pushed as one of its top stars. The Bucks & Cody were offered strong deals. The Bucks deal was for money roughly the same as WWE champion A.J. Styles, which would have also included BTE being made a regular weekly show on the WWE Network, as well as something I’ve never heard WWE concede on, which was a six-month window where they could have left their three-year contract if they wanted and weren’t happy with their push."
Haitch went hard for the four it seems.
Also if this is true, lol:
Sullivan was supposed to debut in some manner on Monday’s Raw (speculated as in a dark match) but he either failed to show up at the arena or arrived and left before the show, having apparently suffered an anxiety attack
Meltzer notes that the WWE office is very understanding of mental health issues following their experiences with Mauro Ranallo, who has been very public about his long battle with bipolar disorder, and they took the time to speak with Sullivan and help him through his issues.
Believing the matter was resolved, WWE scheduled Sullivan for a dark match at the following night’s SmackDown tapings. This time Sullivan did not even show up at the building – instead he flew home to Colorado.
A nervous monster freak.
NXT UK Takeover tonight at 7pm.
I kinda drifted away from the TV show so there are some of the matches I'm not sure if I should be looking forward to or not. Eddie Dennis looks a bit odd and gangly, is he actually any good?
And I really can't be doing with Jordan Devlin.
Mustafa Ali on Jericho's podcast is a good yarn.
Hangman Page is going to be bigger than Omega in the States. He has so much upside and doesnt look a little bit you know...
One of my wifes mates husbands is called Adam Page.
I'm a twit
Big hog?
I presume not.
I'm a twit
I also drifted, they were pumping out episodes so quickly.
I really don't like Dennis, his attire looks like he dipped into the lost and found and his scowl is so crap.
Really liked that show, the Takeovers are so compact it works well. I had Devlin as a pound shop Balor at first but he's grown on me, I'd echo the same about Eddie Dennis though, he seems to be presented as a big man wrestler solely because everyone else is a bit short.
Walter v Pete Dunn is going to be great.
holy shit becky is cringe
UK Takeover was fine but I reckon give it a fortnight and there's very little I'll remember about it beyond Balor being there, Moustache Mountain's hideous ring attire and Dunne vs. Coffey being approximately 20 minutes too long.
Are you referring to The Man?
Every time I see or remember Sunny I'm taken back to 4th grade where I, at some point, drew a sun with a big cartoon smile in the corner of like a 3x5 and wrote something to the effect of "Sunny makes my day Sunny" in big 4th grade bubble letters.During said binge I got to see quite a bit of Sunny. Jesus she was attractive. The peak moment might have been the midget tag team match where as you can see in the below gif, she wears a tiny pair of hot pants which clearly wasn't revealing enough as they have zips up the side so you can get a bit of extra thigh.
I only remember this because my mom subsequently found it in my bookbag and asked me who Sunny was and then when she realized it was one of them WRASSLIN' GALS gave me one of these:
...leaving me in a tatters of embarrassment and shame lmao.
Also, idk if anyone keeps up with NXT but I went to a house show last Friday and apparently "EC3" and "Heavy Machinery" are getting called up to the main roster, as per their goodbye message to the crowd after the main event.
I don't know if anyone knows or cares about this but anyways thought I'd share.
As are Lacey Evans and Nikki Cross.
And Lars if he bothers to turn up.
Read a story today that said Balor was always going to be the opponent and they wanted this match last year at the Rumble.
Brock apparently wanted to fight Finn as he likes fighting the smaller more agile guys.
I.e. guys who make him look good at minimum effort.
A load.of suplexes, couple of hope spots, another identikit win, yawn.
Indeed.
Then we got Rollins against Lesnar at WM.
Where exactly the same thing happens but for 20 minutes and either:
1) ends with some sort of shenanigans and, if Rollins is winning, his umpteenth Curb Stomp to make sure Brock has ruined the move before he loses to it.
Or 2) lol Brock wins and takes the belt to a WWE Network special in Putin's back garden and beats Rollins again.
20 minutes including some KNEE PROBLEMS for Rollins ofc.
Followed by a load of moves he 100% could not perform with a gammy knee.
Supposedly they built it as Lesnar vs Strowman to sell more tickets which is just ridiculous.
If that's true and they've intentionally pulled a bait-and-switch on people who've bought tickets then that's beyond lunatic booking and into actual shady bullshit territory.
We're the Authority now though so it's fine.
Gimme the keys for a week and I'll have him fighting Nia Jax.
It's also a bit lol when you look at that fatal four-way for the #1 contendership. A guy who was red-hot until they had him subjected to the usual 50/50 stuff, a guy who they've barely allowed to look like more than a midcarder until about a fortnight ago, an absentee bald-spot and poor old fucking Jezza.
Also loved the quality protection for recently returned and recently turned Dean Ambrose in losing the belt.
Apart from Nikki Cross, it looks like Lars had the right idea to shit it based on all the debuts last night.
Dozovic's was quality, so close to a bit of good ol' sexual harassment too had it not been for 'Tucky'.
What have they done to my beautiful lumpy boy?
Otis
He was blending up an egg and steak smoothie on Smackdown, so it may not all be lost yet.
One wonders if, somewhere in the three hour wrestling show, they couldn't find a few minutes to maybe put them in a wrestling match? Could that work?
What? You've lost the fucking plot.
The best way to debut people is have them in the background as an established character walks down a corridor, maybe stopping to have a look for a second. Basically printing money
Watched a bit of SD before bed and the Almas/Rey match was great, they have such great chemistry.
Took them so long to actually utilise Andrade but they're nailing it now.
That was a great match. What is their fucking problem with surnames though? Ugh.
Also, Canadian Destroyer again. I don't get how that doesn't breach their piledriver rule. Have Rey and Almas convinced somebody it's more of a reverse frankensteiner delivered via sunset flip?
"I don't see piledriver in the name. Do you?"
