AEW doesn’t get enough credit for their structure of payperviews and storylines. Their much more than the high spots that certain fans love spewing out of their mouth that they are. The story of Darby and Cody gets past around as if it’s the burial of Darby. But it’s not. The story is playing out that Darby can’t beat Cody, then Full Gear 2020 comes and then Darby will defeat Cody. That’s going to be a big upset.
I can tell you first hand that full gear 2019 felt like a breath of fresh air. For the first time in a while I was at a non wwe show and it felt special like I was a part of the Revolution of AEW for the fans. Thank you tony
I don't comment on RUclips stuff normally, and I don't watch anything but highlights and dark wrestling wise, other than your channel man. I really enjoy your work I'm with you on the crowds, I stopped watching wrestling from a little after the WCW/wwf merger, but a friend of mine had an extra ticket to the Atlanta show (Cody cage match) and he had me watch Jericho vs omega in Japan (always been a Jericho fan) and then the bucks vs lucha bros, the ladder match, and I've been in deep into AEW since. I come to your channel for refreshers on the history I have or haven't seen, and I just appreciate how you explain everything so well. Keep it up dude!
You said *Full Gear* is the underrated PPV in AEW, just like the MCU's *Avengers: Age of Ultron* is the underrated film between the 4 big movies of the Infinity Saga. Both set the characters for the long run until reaching full circle and see their change in the end. The turning point will happen right there.
For most of my childhood, I mostly watched WWE and didn't really get to appreciate most of its storylines. Only when AEW was introduced did I not only learn about brands other than the WWE and TNA but also become truly attached to the storytelling done in wrestling. Tranquilo Club, thanks for building my hype for Full Gear this Saturday.
@@tomjohnson8410 wwe has forgotten what long-term booking is. As for the other promotions, they really are not accessible to most countries since they don’t have TV deals. Hell, I only found out about NJPW because of Jericho’s feud with Kenny Omega.
@@tomjohnson8410 yeah, because everyone is a hardcore wrestling fan like you so everyone has to watch every wrestling show available. Oh, and impact is accessible sure, but they also don’t do long term booking. Take your chill pill dude.
@@tomjohnson8410 yeah, clearly talking about WWE because where I live, WWE is the only accessible wrestling show and it is the only major wrestling promotion for us casual fans for the longest time. So sorry if I’m not a hardcore fan like yourself.
I love you man, you make the best wrestling essays on RUclips, and since you are covering AEW the topic of each and every video is interesting. The progress you've made is unbelievable, keep it up
This was a solid concise well edited video, TC. I would have loved a longer in depth video about more storylines that happened on the PPV but I think you nailed almost all of them that mattered. Full Gear 2020 Title Changes Predictions: Darby for new TNT champion, Young Bucks Win the Tag Team Championships and Nyla Wins the Womens Title. Imho that title has had quicksand effect on Shida and I'd say that there needs to be a change in that title. -Moxley Retains
I love the pacing and the business backgrounds you give in your videos. These are tremendously well done and put together, so thank you for your hard work and passion.
Another wonderful wonderful video. A lot of details that wasn't in my mind just now rised thank you to this video. It's clear now how the arcs are working. In some years this video we'll be timeless because will help to explain how we got to the Future aew.
Add one more parallel: I believe this year the Young Bucks added a stipulation to their title match that if they loose they will never again challenge for the AEW Tag Titles. Just like Cody. Though I imagine this time they will win...
It may not be the greatest AEW show but definitely it was most anticipated at that time due to that Awesome build. This was the best Build AEW has done in their short history that go home brawl which connected every story and match happening on PPV was one of the best in the history. Specially that Omega and Moxely teasing teaming up for a minutes but only to take out everyone and go against each other at full throttle i loved that but so much.
Long term storytelling done masterfully. And once more I am a wrestling fan. Love AEW and NJPW because of this. My love for WWE is now merely nostalgia; looking back at memeories.
I was at this show live this was the first Ppv I’ve ever been to and omg this show was amazing from top to bottom. That Hangman page vs PAC match and Moxley vs Omega was AWESOME
Honestly I feel like Revolution and Full Gear should switch names because the shockwaves from Full Gear 2019 are still felt one year later but Revolution is where arguably almost all the wrestlers went and kicked it up to another level in ring
First Double or Nothing 2019 Full gear 2019 And Revolution 2020 Are 3 true great PPVs of AEW Rest are good but these 3 stand apart and I think Full gear 2020 could potentially top that.
Good video...and look at the crew now in 2021...bulletclub across 3 brands...HANGMAN with the DARK ORDER, and MJF in the INNERCIRCLE...🤯. And there is gonna be OMEGA vs MOX 3...
We all know kenny omega will win against adam page,so here is how i would want the ending of mox vs kingston to be,i want both kingston and mox battle each other and kingston becomes aggressive and starts to beat the hell outta mox and then pac will return and attack kingston(cuz the lucha bros used to be on pacs side)and then he tells the referee that kingston said i quit (i am not sure if that is allowed to happen but oh well)and after moxley's win kenny will attack mox from behind similarly to how he got attacked in the 1st aew weekly show.
Pac will not come back because of the travel ban and kingston needs to really say that he quits to make space for Omega. I'd love to see pac back tho' and would not like Kingston to leave.
Man,I cannot wait for the blockbuster that will be the reformation of the elite. I wonder to what extremes they I'll need to be pushed to for that to happen. Perhaps a certain club coming to AEW in the future? O.o
MJF also coming full circle, going from thinking he could do it on his own without Cody and the Nightmare Family to trying to get into the Inner Circle after his loss to Moxley.
AEW builds towards their PPVs with minor plot points happening along the way. It's a different story for the women's division, which really needs some love and attention. What AEW does right is they do make a lot of their roster feel like stars. This can be attributed to using jobbers aka enhancement talent to give them wins and this gets around one of the biggest problems WWE has, the 50/50 booking and not having any of their wrestlers feel big, important or special. Sure it's very obvious who is going to win each match, but its great to see the people they bring in to do the job. In fact there are jobbers they are using I kind of want to see win because they impress me. Another thing that has been noticed is that there is a noticeable passion in the talent at AEW for what they are doing compared to WWE. AEW really deserves credit for their booking and storylines. Though I do agree with Tony Schiavone from one of the after dynamite shows that they should have pulled the trigger on Silver and Reynolds winning the tag match to go face FTR since those two are extremely over. To me AEWs biggest hiccup is not being able to react fast enough to that. Imagine those two with the Tag Belts and the fun stuff we would get from the Dark Order segments. But now we are facing another cant complete for the Title stipulation, that we saw around a year ago with Cody. That should be a fued blow off stipulation. I could go on about a lot of the things AEW does that makes sense, like people have friends to help them if they get jumped, etc. But that is a long discussion that you could easily make into a nice video some day in the future.
Honestly I think the a good long term storyline path for AEW barring injury or certain major signings is Kenny omega holds the belt for a long reign and then Drops it to a redemption fueled Hangman Page. Then hangman only holds for a few months drops it to MJF in shady fashion. Then in 2022 after a lengthy reign a cocky MJF challenges and drops title to Cody, after forcing him to accept and drop his no world title stipulation through shady tactics and the fans pushing him to accept. This will make two storylines come full circle in two years.
It should have been the more impactful, if MJF had a more spicy student - guide relationship with Cody(where promos Cody ignoring elite and focusing more on building his own faction after becoming executive president should have been aired). During the 5 month build from Fyter Fest to Full Gear, instead of just sarcastically/half heartedly gloryfing everything Cody did MJF should have started questioning Cody's baby face ways during promos and quarreled with him during matches where Cody (should be in ringside for MJF) picks on MJF's heelish in ring strategy. This build up would have been better than the original one from Full Gear 2019 as it would still have that surprise factor(early turn than speculated) while having more depth to it(as Cody and Fam have invested more into MJF on air).
Full gear 2019: kenny and hangman begin their tag team Full gear 2020: kenny beats hangman for the #1 contender spot Full gear 2021: hangman beats kenny for the title
Man hangman was the only member of the elite to win last year, and if you think about it hes probably the only one who will lose this year (cody probably beats darby, YB beat FTR cause of that copy stipulation, and kenny beats hangman as the cleaner)
AEW doesn’t get enough credit for their structure of payperviews and storylines. Their much more than the high spots that certain fans love spewing out of their mouth that they are. The story of Darby and Cody gets past around as if it’s the burial of Darby. But it’s not. The story is playing out that Darby can’t beat Cody, then Full Gear 2020 comes and then Darby will defeat Cody. That’s going to be a big upset.
I never realized it until how last year's event storylines plays into this year's event storylines
I can tell you first hand that full gear 2019 felt like a breath of fresh air. For the first time in a while I was at a non wwe show and it felt special like I was a part of the Revolution of AEW for the fans. Thank you tony
This really might be the best AEW content-related channel on RUclips...
This is the day I decided I was permanently invested in AEW.
I don't comment on RUclips stuff normally, and I don't watch anything but highlights and dark wrestling wise, other than your channel man. I really enjoy your work
I'm with you on the crowds, I stopped watching wrestling from a little after the WCW/wwf merger, but a friend of mine had an extra ticket to the Atlanta show (Cody cage match) and he had me watch Jericho vs omega in Japan (always been a Jericho fan) and then the bucks vs lucha bros, the ladder match, and I've been in deep into AEW since.

Bro I was at this live, it was an amazing show! Best show I ever attended live!
Same bro that place went nuts when MJF turned
Me too! I was right next to the ring... it was an incredible night. AEW shut Baltimore down!
In my opinion Revolution was the best ppv of aew❤️
All out is so boring compared to other 3 ppv
Agreed the build up to and payoff at revolution was hype!
Same. I literally just started the video though. Perhaps I will be swayed.
I could agree with that
Yes!! The First double or nothing was
Awesome too!
This is slowly becoming one of my top 3 or top 5 favorite wrestling RUclips channels
@Ragendlove Channel lmao so?
For most of my childhood, I mostly watched WWE and didn't really get to appreciate most of its storylines. Only when AEW was introduced did I not only learn about brands other than the WWE and TNA but also become truly attached to the storytelling done in wrestling.
Tranquilo Club, thanks for building my hype for Full Gear this Saturday.
Long term story telling
Something we barely see before AEW.
That’s ALL us fans wanted all along. That’s why I support this company.

Another epic breakdown analysis of AEW
Congrats on your series of AEW videos, they’ve been next level viewing this year, thanks
I love the pacing and the business backgrounds you give in your videos. These are tremendously well done and put together, so thank you for your hard work and passion.
Another wonderful wonderful video. A lot of details that wasn't in my mind just now rised thank you to this video. It's clear now how the arcs are working. In some years this video we'll be timeless because will help to explain how we got to the Future aew.
Your content is awesome keep it up man!
Full gear 2019, specifically Moxley vs Omega is the reason I started watching wrestling again
I was at this show live. It was an incredible experience.
Man luv these retrospective yo tranquilo keep the vids coming And is u still working on the Cody video??😁
@Fayaz Hossain The fall and rise of Cody 🤧😁
This just has me pumped even more for full gear. Your videos are great!
Perfect video before the show tomorrow The Best channel about AEW stories!!!
Best wrestling channel on RUclips with WhatCulture in close 2nd!
Can't wait for this years full gear
man ppl might call u an aew fanboy but to me i cannot get enough aew content i love it
Excellent video.
Keep producing content!
Hey tranquillo,, i was here when you were at 500 subs
Best RUclips channel .....
Add one more parallel: I believe this year the Young Bucks added a stipulation to their title match that if they loose they will never again challenge for the AEW Tag Titles. Just like Cody. Though I imagine this time they will win...
There isn't any alternative. Of tag team championship like tnt championship, so whatever happens they will not lose.
Man I feel like FTR was just gaining steam...
GodDAMN, Tranquilo, how is every video you make so solid?
These videos are so great bro!
It may not be the greatest AEW show but definitely it was most anticipated at that time due to that Awesome build.
This was the best Build AEW has done in their short history that go home brawl which connected every story and match happening on PPV was one of the best in the history.
Specially that Omega and Moxely teasing teaming up for a minutes but only to take out everyone and go against each other at full throttle i loved that but so much.
Really enjoying these videos keep up the good work dude very entertaining 👍
Please make a hangman vs omega video before full gear
Long term storytelling done masterfully. And once more I am a wrestling fan. Love AEW and NJPW because of this. My love for WWE is now merely nostalgia; looking back at memeories.
Okay you've become my favorite on RUclips
Amazing job as always
I was at this show live this was the first Ppv I’ve ever been to and omg this show was amazing from top to bottom. That Hangman page vs PAC match and Moxley vs Omega was AWESOME
Make a video on AEW REVOLUTION 🙏🙏
I was there and I’ve seen every one it was so good especially being there live and then rewatching it later still holds up
how do you feel about 2020 full gear? The card is super stack and cant wait to watch it.
Has potential to be on the list for PPV of the year along with Revolution and Wrestle Kingdom!
i love your vids man. keep it up.
dude after watching this, I totally fell like on Full Gear 2021 it will be Hang man's coronation as champ
0:58 I live for that yuka sakazaki picture
that is why I dedicated my channel to AEW
underrated channel
This is what I really like about AEW-there's no story that would overshadow all the others. They all feel equally important.
Honestly I feel like Revolution and Full Gear should switch names because the shockwaves from Full Gear 2019 are still felt one year later but Revolution is where arguably almost all the wrestlers went and kicked it up to another level in ring
First Double or Nothing 2019
Full gear 2019
And Revolution 2020
Are 3 true great PPVs of AEW
Rest are good but these 3 stand apart and I think Full gear 2020 could potentially top that.
Good video...and look at the crew now in 2021...bulletclub across 3 brands...HANGMAN with the DARK ORDER, and MJF in the INNERCIRCLE...🤯. And there is gonna be OMEGA vs MOX 3...

MJF also coming full circle, going from thinking he could do it on his own without Cody and the Nightmare Family to trying to get into the Inner Circle after his loss to Moxley.
nice
I was there at the event. Best time of my life
Like wrestlemania, is it a reset?
Goddamn do you make good videos!!
I wonder if Tony Khan has an 18 month plan like Gedo
Last year looks like a different century
I saw that show live
I loved this ppv not just because I was there

Bro u make some good videos

This will make two storylines come full circle in two years.
who came back here after the Mox vs Omega rematch?
Cody was great elevating tnt champion
I dont think MJF turning on Cody during Full Gear 2019, was the optimal turn MJF deserved.
It should have been the more impactful, if MJF had a more spicy student - guide relationship with Cody(where promos Cody ignoring elite and focusing more on building his own faction after becoming executive president should have been aired).
During the 5 month build from Fyter Fest to Full Gear, instead of just sarcastically/half heartedly gloryfing everything Cody did MJF should have started questioning Cody's baby face ways during promos and quarreled with him during matches where Cody (should be in ringside for MJF) picks on MJF's heelish in ring strategy.

Full gear 2019: kenny and hangman begin their tag team
Full gear 2020: kenny beats hangman for the #1 contender spot
Full gear 2021: hangman beats kenny for the title
Man hangman was the only member of the elite to win last year, and if you think about it hes probably the only one who will lose this year (cody probably beats darby, YB beat FTR cause of that copy stipulation, and kenny beats hangman as the cleaner)
I feel like these are love letters to the wrestlers.
early gang
1st
Wait till Nick Gage shows up
