I could see him doing it for a short run and being around for the Owen tournaments too if he has patched things up with Martha. It'd be hard for him to be any kind of a heel though with the reaction he'll get.

CM Punk Vs Dax Harwood now added as the opener for tonight's show.

Pentecost

That should be decent, even if they'll probably have shenanigans to finish. Is it starting at midnight our time still?

Yeah midnight start again, back to it's regular 01:00am slot next Thursday morning.

Lord TSC

How many Bret hart references are Punk and Dax going to put into their match, do ya reckon? 😂 Great pairing though, genuinely excited for that match.

Pentecost

Blackpool Combat Club. I love that name very old school.

Lord TSC

Punk vs Dax was awesome. Thought the crowd were great last night overall.

I find it impossible to like Sammy tbh. “We ****” is such an awful gimmick for a baby face couple, and I personally thought the “haha, we cum in that belt, lol” was just stupid.

Pentecost

Yeah that segment was terrible. Neither of them came across as in any way likeable. Tay was doing fine in the role she had, there was no need to bring the relationship onto TV.

ThePott

Opening matches were unreal.

Two poor things though on the show. Tay and Sammy being chief among them, seriously as if Sammy didn't need a repackage to begin with. Their gimmick is that they're having sex and are a couple, how is that in anyway interesting. Absolutely cringey and they sure better hope they are a long-term couple or it'll be even cringier. I'm not really a fan of any couple's wrestling stuff but something about it being such a new relationship and having seen Sammy propose to his ex not long ago makes it especially icky.

Thunder Rosa didn't half look a chump. I really hope this isn't the direction the women's division or her feud is going. Really hoping they aren't just uninterested now that Britt isn't champion.

Davy05

I think pairing up with Sami could end up really setting Tay back. She was a very likeable babyface which is a hard road to walk for someone relatively knew. But like someone already said, there's something fundamentally unlikeable about Sami. And that was before you factor in the whole fiancé-gate.

They got each others name tattooed on each other, to boot.

Two spanners.

Necro

Tay and Sammy are the new Cody and Brandi only with about half the star power of Brandi 😂

Lithium93_

*Temporarily tattooed.

They'll fade eventually.

~Rebel~

I have to assume this is the start of a heel turn after the Paige Vanzant fued concludes?

As said, Tay was doing really well on her own, but this whole thing has killed that instantly. It's also totally diluted her to now just being Sammy's girlfriend instead of her own thing. How can they possibly stay babyface? Like, at best, it's really **** to kinda be rubbing all this in the face of the woman we all saw proposed to live on TV not so long ago, and at worst, many will presume Sammy was cheating on that woman with Tay.

As for this week's episode, Thought Varsity Blondes or Julia Hart would've come into the ring with Regal since could see Julia sitting there.

When is Jade's next match since it wasn't advertised for Rampage or next Wednesday?

J. Marston

I'm being too generous even putting those two in a meme with Edge and Lita. Jesus Christ, they're painful.

Pentecost

Edge and Lita were heels at least. I reckon Jade might lose her next match they're making such a big deal about the celebrations. Someone could come in like Athena/Ember Moon. They could build her back up quickly enough and her main selling point is how she looks anyway.

I thought it was very good show overall but agree that the Tay/Sammy and Rosa bits were awful.

Just have Rosa come out and cut a nice babyface promo about winning the title and leave it that. Start a feud or something next week. She looked like an idiot. And please get Vicki off TV. Nyla isn't actually a bad talker as well.

Can't add anymore to the Tay/Sammy talk. He's such an unlikeable bloke and this won't help him at all unless a heel turn is planned.

Headshot

Dax really is a brilliant worker and holds himself up as a great singles competitor

He has some great single matches and boy did I love the CM Punk V Dax match

Headshot

That Tornado match was f-ing mad stuff

bloody hell, the camera's couldnt keep with the sheer madness lol

On a seperate note the camera's were all over the place and missed out out on along of stuff during the show, pretty poor stuff tbh

Lithium93_

Sting's really having one last hell of a run in AEW, before he rides off into the sunset.

It's great to see, he deserves it so much.

Funny how that part's always left out by the posters so horrified about two people getting tattoos.

Thought that was one of the better Dynamite's of the year, Punk against Dax the Ax was so good. And Sting is a lunatic, really has been great to see him back.

Punk signalling for the title, MJF/Wardlow, additions to the Blackpool Combat Club, the inevitable LAX kickback against Jericho and his crew, the Owen. And maybe Bret too? Lots of good stuff coming up hopefully!

J. Marston

Jericho looks fantastic, arguably better than he has looked in 10-15 years. The ageing boozy rockstar was just sad but the ageing healthy rockstar looks cool. Current gimmick is a rare swing and a miss though.

Pentecost

I hope he refuses to use "Judas" at some stage to punish the fans and deny them their singalong. Which isn't fitting for a heel anyway.

Aubrey Edwards sells better than 99.5% of the AEW roster.
