    Riho/Deeb for one of next week's shows? Riho must be one of the most returning wrestlers in AEW. Seems Visa issues kept her away this time.

    Hangman return soon?

    I'd say Jack Perry is winning.

    Swerve and Osprey both at the top of their game. That was something special. Takeshita is so good and that's one of the best table spots I've seen in years. He deserves better overall, proper main event potential there.

    I guess they have to turn Sasha heel now with the reaction she was getting and the return of Britt.

    So how does the feud between Britt and Sasha work now? Does Britt do the job after just making her big return, or does Sasha do the job and lose her championship? Would they be willing to let Sasha take the loss to give Britt some needed momentum, or would they be afraid of making her look too weak in defeat. Will be interesting to see how this plays out.

    Tony is obsessed with Mone, no way is Britt getting a win IMO, mone probably has it in her contract to hold all the women's titles at once

    Mone is the "highest paid women's wrestler ever", has her own personal writer and she said over the weekend that she has creative control.

    So, good luck Britt.

    SRS on Twitter…


    Fightful Select has learned that the AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door main event came about because Will Ospreay wanted to eliminate the talking point of Swerve being a placeholder for him until All In. 

    He wanted to lead by example that anyone should be good losing to the world champion, as well.

    My God that was some main event. It just blew me away. These 2 guys are the best in the world at what they do.

    Awesome Dynamite.

    Hangman back as a murderous heel with eyes only for Swerve is interesting especially not him aligning with the Elite. MJF turning heel is for the best too, I don't really get the hype for Garcia but that was a brutal beatdown and the crowd did turn on MJF at the end. He plays best as a heel so why not. Speaking of playing better as heel, Mercedes is finally heel. Enjoyed the segment between her and Britt and them against each other in Wembley is totally the match.

    I think in general, the womens division is much better than it was a few months back. Willow still makes for a great face. Having Mariah win could be a great story for Wembley too.

    Dynamite is on an upswing for me so hope that they can keep the momentum going.

    Yea agree a really solid dynamite (minus Jericho's crap).

    I'm guessing with mjf back heel which I agree is best, there is no finish to him and Cole (obviously Cole isn't cleared yet anyways) but that beat down was great and the crowd were loud. Kinda knew something was happening when they advertised mjf to open Collison but him vs Osprey will be unreal at all in.

    New version of hangman is great and I hope they keep him as a lone wolf type where he doesn't have allegiance to anyone and they really got the crowd cheering for Jarret in 2024 but great match.

    Britt vs Mercedes will be decent and glad Mercedes is heel, i wonder will they have Hayter return after the match at all in as it would be some pop. As mentioned womens division is definitely improving and getting some good storylines.

    Ricochet as the final elite team member?

    Lads seem to turn so often in AEW, MJF could have turned and be working as a face before Cole returns.

    Mariah May really has been an MVP since she signed and will be well deserving of her moment at All In.

    Has there been any update on Adam Cole? He must have really done some damage to his ankle. Considering they were saying MJF was expected to be absent for a long time to get surgery and rehab and then he gets back before Cole.

    that heel turn was incredible, and the final shots of a bloody Toni were chilling. Made May look like an absolute monster.


    card for All In looks insane.

    I can see the bucks getting hangman into the world title match after blood and guts to make it a triple threat.

    Danielson getting the title in Wembley (hopefully) would be a great moment.

    Mariah looked a beast with that turn, excellently executed. This is what was needed for the title at All In.

    Triple Threat matches don't exist in AEW. That's WWE terminology

    Was so pissed off with the dead crowd that I went online to see what others were saying about the atmosphere and walked into the Mariah spoiler…more fool me.

    A poor crowd just sucks the life out of a show and once Ospreay was met with crickets in the opening segment I knew we were in big trouble.

    Hangman v Danielson was a banger and deserved better than that poor crowd.

    I jumped for joy to see Danielson headline All In. What a way to end a full-time active pro wrestler career. My only disappointment I wont be there to see it but I'm content.

    I went to the first All In and boy that was some experience but I wouldn't do it again.
