I’m of the belief that Tony hadn’t planned shit past the first six months other than that page would beat omega. The show was pretty decent at first. Maybe that was just the ganja talking though 😂

@@randyruger9063 it already has. This run made me question everything he's ever done. And when I did go back, I realized he's not as good as he's made out to be.

I strongly believe half of the people watching the AEW highlights on RUclips are Cornette listeners who want to get the context of his rants When I saw that Wardlow had a match vs Pockets, I was exited to click on the video, not because I like the product but because I knew a good old rant was in the making and boy it was good
Honestly Eddie Kingston is starting to become AEW's Bray Wyatt, talks a big game but loses the big matches. People can only believe in someone so much before they question "why am I backing this guy when he can't get the job done"
Is Jericho slowly morphing into Mickey Rourke from the movie the wrestler? That’s all I can imagine when I see him get color or getting thrown into barbed wire tables…
Yes, Lots of fans seem to go for the barbed wire, thumb tacks, explosives, broken glass, can openers, plastic knives, biting, and buckets of blood, but I hate them. Jericho obviously thinks he needs it for his legacy, but it is degrading for everyone, and I don't want torture and blood for my entertainment, thank you.
Jericho always puts over younger talent. And todays wrestling fans are morons they think you need to win every match to be over. Austin lost at 13 got more over. Bret at SS92. And its not.like Eddie is a spring chicken
All I could think of was the Roger Rabbit scene when he was able to get out of the handcuffs at any time..."Not just any time, Only when it was funny!"
There was a Jericho interview years ago where he said that while working with younger guys, he'd try to explain to them how they didn't need to throw everything and the kitchen sink into a match. But they ended up convincing him that yes, in fact, you do need to do that. Jericho could've been valuable in dispensing veteran advice but he was too busy trying to get the cool kids to like him.
Sabu finishing match with an exposed bicep was crazy. Tony probably told Eddie and Chris y'all take it easy out there. We can't afford to lose anyone to injury tonight. I haven't seen so many misses in anything since Nolan Ryan threw his last no-hitter. I was embarrassed as a fan of AEW for AEW. That missed backfist from Kingston looked like a scene from the 3 stooges. Chris breaking his own nose was like instant Karma. I know what's missing in wrestling today. The ability to make shit look real.
@@BB-ed4om When Sabu and Terry Funk did it, it look legitimate, and taking it seriously they were fighting for real and really killing themselves in the barbed wire. This one between Jericho and Kingston along with the one with Omega and Moxley was completely phony and wasn't taking it seriously and continue to make wrestling look stupid and fake.
@@disturbedftw1998 I saw that match live and you’re 100% spot on. You could feel the violence in the air and the legit danger those two were going thru. People don’t realize that the whole crowd stayed for another 45 minutes as the medics cut Funk/Sabu apart. There was a point where Funk almost got his jugular snagged.
Also the end was the funniest part ever: the "FUCK! GODDAMMIT!" when Kingstone whiffed the backhand thanks to Sammy just suckerpunching Jericho out of the blue was so bloody funny it made my stomach hurt, what a way to end such a trainwreck.
Lucky you, all Jim's stuff will be fresh for ya. Go check out his backlog. You'll legit find yourself wanting to go back and watch the crappy matches he's talking about
My thoughts: 1) It's weird that I have never heard Jim Cornette trash Mick Foley, Terry Funk, The Sheik, Dory Funk Sr., Dusty Rhodes, etc. This is not the first barbed wire match and it won't be the last. 2) Do I have a problem with a Barbed Wire Match being done. Absolutely not. Do I think you should give away a Barbed Wire Match on free television? No, I don't think you should. Make people pay to see that. Rule of thumb should be: Texas Deathmatches, Barbed Wire Matches, & Exploding Barbed Wired Deathmatches (Like Onita & Funk), Should strictly be on PPV. You can give away any other gimmick match for national television, Whether it's a ladder match, cage match, first blood match, submission match, etc. But the three above that, Should be PPV specials only. 3) Do I think you should book gimmick matches every week. Absolutely not. Gimmick matches should be used for one of two reasons. It needs to be either the blow off match for the feud, or it needs have some prize stipulations, Where there is something major to be gained by winning it. Example: Money In The Bank Ladder Match, The Royal Rumble, Torneo Cibernetico, etc. By winning the match, You earned a major prize. No different then having a tournament. 4) Was this Barbwire Match overbooked? Yes. Too many moving pieces involved and the Anna Jay turn at the end, I thought was a bad move.I probably would have inserted her into the Jungle Boy & Christian Cage storyline, After Luchasaurus pulls what Mark Henry did to John Cena years ago. Then she tries to stop a beatdown on Jungle Boy and she's is inserted into the program as Jungle Boy's valet and he now has some stakes on the line. This way down the road, You could have did Jungle Boy & Anna Jay vs Sammy Guevara & Tay Conti. Too late now I guess. It made no sense. If they were gonna add anyone new to the JAS, I probably would have went with Griff Garrison. Due to Guevara's friendship with him, His resemblance to a young Jericho and having the tools needed potentially get over down the road, But may need some direction. 5) Tony Khan & The Wrestlers need to start telling the director in the truck, Whenever there is a blade spot, When the spot is happening and where it is happening, So they can avoid the d*mn camera angle. It almost seems like they are trying to do it on purpose. 6) Jim is saying that USA Network & FOX Network wouldn't want anything to do with a product like AEW's, With the blood & cussing, When they are in fact PUSHING WWE to be edgier. There has been a active push for that behind the scenes, At those two networks. 7) Next time you do a Barbwire Match, Leave out the "Barbwire Everywhere". The damn philosophy & psychology of the Barbwire Match, As invented & intended by the old schoolers, Wasn't to have barbwire everywhere, So the wrestlers can do spots & take bumps in. The psychology was meant for building up tension by TRYING TO AVOID THE BARBWIRE. The same thing was applicable for Atsushi Onita's "Exploding Barbwire Deathmatches". The focus is on trying to AVOID IT, Until the right time for the couple of spots, That ENDS THE MATCH. I appreciate the effort though. I would have produced it different but I appreciate the effort.
Past greatness just makes it worse when once great performers have lost their mojo, because it just serves to remind fans of how far the guy has fallen. I mean, I saw once match where an aged, injured Dynamite Kid had a throw back match with Tiger Mask. Its pretty heart breaking.
I'm glad I'm not the only one that's been thinking that, I go back to those to see Le Champion and The Lexicon of Le Champion segments. Adter losing the title to Moxley, is as if he started having a mid life crisis.
Went from one of the best people on AEW to see for the first year to the most irritating part of AEW. Thought the Orange Cassidy push and gimmick was irritating but Jericho has taken this to an entirely new low
Your absolutely right,he used to be so good too,how did he allow himself to become this, it blows i liked jericho, he is awful now from his fake ass entrance his promos his wrestling alll sucks fn blows hes horrible now, he needs to retire
It’s been so bad lately that every consecutive episode is becoming the worst ever till next week. Some good matches within the confines of a programme that is 2000 WCW bad atm
Chris Jericho managed to have a worse barbed wire match than Coke Moxley and Sir Kenneth Olivier. How is that even possible? He's worse than the King of Fake Backyarders who can't throw a punch to save his life and a self-taught Rudolf Nureyev wannabe. Amazing! For decades he whined about bookers holding him back and "shackling his creativity", now he's finally free and can be the wrestling genius he always told us he would be if he just had his way. And THIS is the result... Man, those bookers who kept him on a tight leash were on to something!
Everyone tries to recreate ECW's Born to be Wired match of Sabu vs Terry Funk, but they think that more barbed wire means better... AEW needs to just stop with gimmick matches. Too many and they're all terrible.
Tony is desperately trying to get the ratings up. His only successful trick was big star debuts, now there is no one else left. So now most shows are “Special events”, with big gimmick matches. However the rating just keep dropping.
From what I know, Jim doesn't mind Gresham, in ring wise. Maybe he comes across more like he's performing than fighting, but he's not playing around. Jim doesn't care for him character and mic wise though. Also, since he went up against Claudio, I'd think Corny might be harder on him.
@@savagereaper6291 ya know the excuse long term story telling is such an analogy to every aew match. First they tease how it will end, then they go hard, slow down so it's not all over take 20 Minutes to get going blow their load, still keep going, then when it's been to long term pull an ending out of your ass. It's not a dead ending to a match. It's called long term matchmaking.
Jericho thrown into a box of barb wire, into cardboard boxes off top of cage, into a pool of orange juice. Thrown into so much stuff, yet noone gets over.
No reason why Jericho should’ve won this. Eddie should’ve won this match to end the feud. It was the perfect set up…barbed wire stretch plum to finish the feud…would’ve been perfect Edit : I actually could’ve forgave the run ins and brawl if it meant Eddie winning at the end. The brawl wasn’t too long
Yeah, that's my biggest issue with this. Wasn't a fan of the gimmick match, but I guess I could understand it given how long the feud has been (and that they've already had a standard singles match). But why in the hell did Jericho win?
Eddie has no star power as a wrestler. He is a great talker. It made sense to make Jericho win here because I'm assuming the next feud will be JAS vs BCC.
nah shitstain wouldn't book this. Remember he booked an "Electified cage match" where it was simulated by flickering lights & the wrestlers having to act like they "were getting electricuted"
I am an AEW fan. I like a lot of things they put on TV. But this match was so unbelievably awful, it made me embarrassed to be a fan, and I haven't started listening yet, but whatever Jim says about it, it deserves all of it.
@@Sky_Blaze Then why the fuck do you watch it lol?? Do you value your time so little? Watch something you enjoy. And if you don't watch it, and only go by what Jim and others say, then your opinion is moot.
I'm also an AEW fan, and it's because I'm a fan that I want the promotion to get better and I am critical of it....it's just painful with matches like this.
Chris Jericho is so desperate to be Sabu with these "hardcore" barbed wire matches. Except Sabu, during a barbed wire match nearly had his bicep completely ripped off his arm by a barbed wire rope but he taped it back on and continued wrestling.
Why would you want to be Sabu when you're already more famous and successful than Sabu? That's like Steph Curry saying he wants to be like JaVale McGee. (Just to be clear I'm calling Jericho an idiot, not you OP.)
Didn't watch the entire match, so hearing that Jericho's guys got out from the cage sideways had me dying because the first thing I thought after seeing the cage was "man those bars seems too far apart"
When Jericho was reinventing himself pre AEW, I admired his willingness to freshen up his gimmick and do new things...but AEW has been awful...my Wofe watched this match with me live, and she said it was the shittiest match she ever watched with me...it made me embarrassed to be a fan if Pro Wrestling...it was an aborrion...
@@BlueBoardAnalysis No, it wasn’t. It was a garbage, indie-styled display of sadomasochism. There was nothing “professional” or “entertaining” about it, nor was it wrestling or sports. This was a fat guy and an old man cutting themselves with razor blades and bleeding on each other for 20 minutes. It was embarrassing.
His best match in years was only a few months ago. He can still be good but follows his worst instincts mostly ruclips.net/video/Cfz0xvte-YQ/видео.html
It was a mere atrocity, saturated with botches, interferences, and bland outlaw wrestling! Kingston is palatable on the mic, but his physique is another story! Overall, a really poor main event that hardly anyone can benefit from! Jellycho needs to retire!
I disagree with you that Kingston's palatable on the mic. The only thing he was good at was sounding like a tough, blue collar guy on the mic. Then being the dumbass that he is, Kingston complained about body shamers, which is the equivalent of admitting he's a fake tough guy not to be taken seriously.
@@pleaseshutup7053 Being a hater implies that he's not focusing on the good aspects of something. So then, enlighten us, tell us about all the good aspects of this complete trainwreck of a "main event".
@@themidnightman9798 That's not how it works! He said "hater". That's like saying "snowflake" or asking if you're "triggered". It means the discussion is over and he "pwned u". Them's the sandbox rules. Or something.
@@DrSpoculus it's embarrassing because it was dogshit. Which is the overwhelming consensus towards this rubbish match. There's always going to be a few that defend this crap, that are in the vast minority, that clearly have the lowest of standards.
This is why AEW desperately needs a quality control guy, that isn’t pals with anyone in the roster, but knows wrestling. If I was quality control, I would have said,”why the fuc* is this shark cage? We HAVE to use it because of a shark week promotion? Ok, we’ll wrap barbwire around it so it’s not obvious people can get out.
The minute they slipped through the bars I turned to my other half and said "Cornette will have a stroke". Absolutely amazing that the AEW fans think this shit is good.
Chris Jericho has totally destroyed his legacy in AEW, and it's nobody elses fault either, it's all on him due to egotism, that big head disease, that Chris Jericho has had for 20 plus years now.....
I really can't decide what I like best about this classic for the ages... Jericho blading in full view of the entire planet (again-again), Jericho breaking his own nose like a meth'd-out backyarder in his first match, Jericho blatantly putting his arm through the barbed wire loop so Kingston could "choke" him better? Tay Conti viciously punching her own hand on Ruby Soho's shoulder, Tay viciously punching air molecules away from her opponent, Ruby punching with an "injured" hand, Tay Conti fumbling around with the padlock for a million years, the Jericoque-suckers just casually squeezing themselves through the bars of the cage sideways with zero difficulties? Or Kingston's Backfist of Doom? So many nuggets to pick from in this turd. It was a Bountiful Barbed-Wire Bollocks Botch Buffet. One more thing, the next time Tony's tykes run their mouths about "fat '80s Southern wrestlers that looked like crap", just show them a picture of Eddie Kingston. Bobby Eaton looked like Lex Luger in comparison.
Heck, just show them some Jeribloat pictures. Jeribloat’s pants don’t have a waistline, they have a coast line. Every time Jerikishi blades, bubbly and Ragu pour out. Way2Fat once rented a cruise ship for himself which capsized from over loading.
I got really depressed watching the replay of this. What made it worse was all the comments online about how great this was and how great Chris looked for doing this match and how much he has sacrificed for the business...
@@EliC09 yea kinda crazy you can't really say anything not positive or they jump on you and bring up a wwe segment from years ago comparing it like that justifies it
I want Sabu to fly to Amarillo, sit with Terry funk, and do a reaction video to the match. And compare the end of born to be wired where they had to be separated in the giant ball, to jericho taking minutes to be freed while whimpering from the sparsely covered board. Just to give giddy marks some perspective on what having barbed wire everewhere really looks like.
At one point in the first few months of AEW when Jericho was champion there was legit talk of him being one of if not the best of all time with all the gimmicks he had gotten over and how well he did reinventing himself. Now, he's pretty much washed all that away.
Nah I read a long long thread on reddit the other day. The AEW fans still champion this idea. They were all throwing flowers at him and debating if he was the GOAT. Stunning, really.
He was never considered THE best to my knowledge but was up there for longevity and recreating his character but the last few years have just shit all over his legacy tbh. His personality as well just seems to have an ego in overdrive and thinking he is THE GREATEST EVER 🤣🤣🤣🤣 got a better chance of singing for AC/DC then that to ever been considered
Legend has it that, Tay Conti is still trying to open the padlock. For a second, I thought AEW can't become any worse than it has been for a while now...but this show proved that it can. It got me more excited for Shark Week than to tune in next week for Dynamite or Friday for Rampage.
When I saw Ruby sitting at ringside with the control for the cage, I knew things would go downhill. And man, did they outdo themselves with nonsensical run-ins and chaos in the middle of a gimmick match. Sammy not being out there was a dead give-away, but when Tai came out to jump Ruby, and then Anna Jay came out and did a heel turn, it became even more of a clown car.
At this point I think Jericho egotistically does what he knows Jim will complain about not realizing it’s actually hurting his legacy more than agitating Jim. What else can explain an international high profile star being put in so many amateurish situations???
I can't wait for Corny's review of FTR vs Briscoes 2 out of 3 falls. I bet he might even criticize Moxley because they showed how to do a wild out brawl that was getting out of hand.
This match reminded me so much of the 2004 to 2007 era of me anticipating reading the spoilers for TNA shows. Id click on the spoilers just to see how many random gimmick matches in ONE show they could throw in. You'd get a reverse battle royal, an electrocuted cage match, a no dq casket on a pole match, a burning ladder match and a 16 man X division escape to the moon match.
Idk man the nick cage match was pretty damn close, and I can say that because I watched it live in the coliseum lol. Funny that both times involved Jericho.
I've notice that AEW have been badly booking ever since Cody left, It's like that Cody was the one always tell Tony if his booking was garbage and keep Tony in check. Now that Cody left, there's nobody backstage that tell Tony otherwise about his garbage booking.
I skipped this match but I have to watch it once I hear the whole "Jericho broke his own nose on a Codebreaker". How in the hell they botch this match so much? Not even Robocop saving Sting from the cage look this bad.
I had a dream the other night where Corny kept calling Tay COnti, "Tay CUnti" and Brian would just correct him by saying " Conti". It was hilarious to me in my dream because they were just so non-chalant about it.
My thoughts: 1) It's weird that I have never heard Jim Cornette trash Mick Foley, Terry Funk, The Sheik, Dory Funk Sr., Dusty Rhodes, etc. This is not the first barbed wire match and it won't be the last. 2) Do I have a problem with a Barbed Wire Match being done.

He still be in my top 10 or 15 but not at top 5. I say that because the last few years and especially this year, I am pretty embarrassed with this JAS. This match took the cake!
This was one of the worst matches I have ever seen in my life. My young nephew and I sat there laughing at the damned thing. I never anticipated a match for how bad I knew it would be.
In a sentence, we can say... Jericho has forgotten his steps to success and his becoming Hulk Hogan Lite... I just don't want him to ruin AEW preventing from getting the next TV deal
Tony will probably bring him along for the negotiations, so he can blade right in front of the TV execs and bleed to death on the conference table. With all that botox in his forehead he couldn't feel where he was going and hit an artery. Ooopsie!

Yes, Lots of fans seem to go for the barbed wire, thumb tacks, explosives, broken glass, can openers, plastic knives, biting, and buckets of blood, but I hate them. Jericho obviously thinks he needs it for his legacy, but it is degrading for everyone, and I don't want torture and blood for my entertainment, thank you.

@@BB-ed4om When Sabu and Terry Funk did it, it look legitimate, and taking it seriously they were fighting for real and really killing themselves in the barbed wire. This one between Jericho and Kingston along with the one with Omega and Moxley was completely phony and wasn't taking it seriously and continue to make wrestling look stupid and fake.
@@disturbedftw1998 I saw that match live and you’re 100% spot on. You could feel the violence in the air and the legit danger those two were going thru.
People don’t realize that the whole crowd stayed for another 45 minutes as the medics cut Funk/Sabu apart. There was a point where Funk almost got his jugular snagged.

"I know what's missing in wrestling today. The ability to make shit look real."
*DING DING DING DING DING!!!!*
Tay Conti not being able to open the cage door made me laugh 😂😂😂😂. Nobody thought to check the key and lock before the show?
She should have at least practiced a couple times beforehand
Didn’t she have trouble sliding a bottle into a cage last time too? It’s a rib at this point 😂
People were saying soho had the wrong key on purpose so they couldn’t open the door. I’m like stfu with the damn excuses
@@Haddley333 aew doesn't practice shit. Thy just show up and wing it. None of these people have actual work ethic they're just there for a check.
Love revisiting so many of these Corny AEW reviews for a good laugh
Same 😂😂😂😂
Also the end was the funniest part ever: the "FUCK! GODDAMMIT!" when Kingstone whiffed the backhand thanks to Sammy just suckerpunching Jericho out of the blue was so bloody funny it made my stomach hurt, what a way to end such a trainwreck.
Kingston SERIOUSLY sucks
I never thought listening to someone describe a match would be far, far more entertaining than watching it🤣🤣
Welcome to the cult young man
Is this your first time? Congratulations haha.
Lucky you, all Jim's stuff will be fresh for ya. Go check out his backlog. You'll legit find yourself wanting to go back and watch the crappy matches he's talking about
My thoughts:
1) It's weird that I have never heard Jim Cornette trash Mick Foley, Terry Funk, The Sheik, Dory Funk Sr., Dusty Rhodes, etc. This is not the first barbed wire match and it won't be the last.
2) Do I have a problem with a Barbed Wire Match being done. Absolutely not. Do I think you should give away a Barbed Wire Match on free television? No, I don't think you should. Make people pay to see that. Rule of thumb should be: Texas Deathmatches, Barbed Wire Matches, & Exploding Barbed Wired Deathmatches (Like Onita & Funk), Should strictly be on PPV. You can give away any other gimmick match for national television, Whether it's a ladder match, cage match, first blood match, submission match, etc. But the three above that, Should be PPV specials only.
3) Do I think you should book gimmick matches every week. Absolutely not. Gimmick matches should be used for one of two reasons. It needs to be either the blow off match for the feud, or it needs have some prize stipulations, Where there is something major to be gained by winning it. Example: Money In The Bank Ladder Match, The Royal Rumble, Torneo Cibernetico, etc. By winning the match, You earned a major prize. No different then having a tournament.
4) Was this Barbwire Match overbooked? Yes. Too many moving pieces involved and the Anna Jay turn at the end, I thought was a bad move.I probably would have inserted her into the Jungle Boy & Christian Cage storyline, After Luchasaurus pulls what Mark Henry did to John Cena years ago. Then she tries to stop a beatdown on Jungle Boy and she's is inserted into the program as Jungle Boy's valet and he now has some stakes on the line. This way down the road, You could have did Jungle Boy & Anna Jay vs Sammy Guevara & Tay Conti. Too late now I guess. It made no sense. If they were gonna add anyone new to the JAS, I probably would have went with Griff Garrison. Due to Guevara's friendship with him, His resemblance to a young Jericho and having the tools needed potentially get over down the road, But may need some direction.
5) Tony Khan & The Wrestlers need to start telling the director in the truck, Whenever there is a blade spot, When the spot is happening and where it is happening, So they can avoid the d*mn camera angle. It almost seems like they are trying to do it on purpose.
6) Jim is saying that USA Network & FOX Network wouldn't want anything to do with a product like AEW's, With the blood & cussing, When they are in fact PUSHING WWE to be edgier. There has been a active push for that behind the scenes, At those two networks.
7) Next time you do a Barbwire Match, Leave out the "Barbwire Everywhere". The damn philosophy & psychology of the Barbwire Match, As invented & intended by the old schoolers, Wasn't to have barbwire everywhere, So the wrestlers can do spots & take bumps in. The psychology was meant for building up tension by TRYING TO AVOID THE BARBWIRE. The same thing was applicable for Atsushi Onita's "Exploding Barbwire Deathmatches". The focus is on trying to AVOID IT, Until the right time for the couple of spots, That ENDS THE MATCH. I appreciate the effort though. I would have produced it different but I appreciate the effort.
@@pirateradio6429 what a pile of... words
Jericho has been awful since he lost the AEW title, and that's a shame considering how great he was at one point
Past greatness just makes it worse when once great performers have lost their mojo, because it just serves to remind fans of how far the guy has fallen. I mean, I saw once match where an aged, injured Dynamite Kid had a throw back match with Tiger Mask. Its pretty heart breaking.
Yup, best point made by @owl….indeed Jericho hasn’t been good since he lost the AEW title ! 🙄🤷🏻♂️
I'm glad I'm not the only one that's been thinking that, I go back to those to see Le Champion and The Lexicon of Le Champion segments. Adter losing the title to Moxley, is as if he started having a mid life crisis.
Went from one of the best people on AEW to see for the first year to the most irritating part of AEW. Thought the Orange Cassidy push and gimmick was irritating but Jericho has taken this to an entirely new low
Ehh last time i saw some decent Jericho matches was in NJPW, but thats probably cuz the Japanese talent carried Jericho hard in-ring work wise.
Sammy and Tay Conti being excluded from the shark tank cage was the biggest hole in the match!
Chris Jericho has become everything or anyone he criticized in his books. He’s the Bulldog Bob Brown of the modern era but with a crappy band.
Best comment ever lol
He loves to crap on triple h
Your absolutely right,he used to be so good too,how did he allow himself to become this, it blows i liked jericho, he is awful now from his fake ass entrance his promos his wrestling alll sucks fn blows hes horrible now, he needs to retire
Saw them live, thought they were fine. Had a great time.
Fozzy are really great live. Very fun show
Every aew match feels like it just going to get worse the longer it goes on like you can feel the botches coming.
The matches never get better.
Yep, I constantly feel like someone is gonna get paralyzed. Obviously wrestling is dangerous, but aew is gonna have a lawsuit one day 😖
7 stars
@Ryan21500 Don't even get me started on Darby Allin. He's gonna put himself in a wheelchair before he's 40.
Conti botched the bottle of rubbing alcohol through the cage and now the key to unlock the cage. nice.
One of the worst matches ever to cap off one of the worst Dynamites ever. A massive achievement in it’s own right
Hi Don Stevens
Tony Khan will tell you this was the greatest dynamite ever
It’s been so bad lately that every consecutive episode is becoming the worst ever till next week. Some good matches within the confines of a programme that is 2000 WCW bad atm
Only to go up from here. Lol
Honestly, you’d hope so. The last 7 months have made the era with Omega as champion look like ‘85 JCP or ‘02 SmackDown
When I saw Danny Garcia slide through the bars of the cage I burst out laughing and said out loud this is going to drive Cornette crazy.
Tbh, when I saw that I was like time for me to go to Wendy's. (I REALLY WAS CRAVING A BACONATOR!) Shows how bad this match was.
@@LL-fd7xn the match was incredible, just one screw up after another, i hope jericho continues to act like a moron
Probably one of if not the worst Dynamite main event ever
Chris Jericho managed to have a worse barbed wire match than Coke Moxley and Sir Kenneth Olivier.
How is that even possible? He's worse than the King of Fake Backyarders who can't throw a punch to save his life and a self-taught Rudolf Nureyev wannabe. Amazing!
For decades he whined about bookers holding him back and "shackling his creativity", now he's finally free and can be the wrestling genius he always told us he would be if he just had his way. And THIS is the result...
Man, those bookers who kept him on a tight leash were on to something!
Everyone tries to recreate ECW's Born to be Wired match of Sabu vs Terry Funk, but they think that more barbed wire means better... AEW needs to just stop with gimmick matches. Too many and they're all terrible.
Dixie Khan thinks gimmick matches and signing ex WWE talent will draw more viewers
@@EliC09 Ill be stealing "Dixie Khan" and adding an Abrams, thank you
@@EliC09 How long until Shit Stain shows up in AEW and Corny's head explodes?
Tony is desperately trying to get the ratings up. His only successful trick was big star debuts, now there is no one else left. So now most shows are “Special events”, with big gimmick matches. However the rating just keep dropping.
MJF, Wardlow, Eddie Kingston were so over a year ago. What happened to the booking of all the future stars?
incompetence happened
Booker of the year happened
Everyone is asking that same question.
easy answer TK seem to only wanna hire EX WWE GUYS TO COME OVER AND TAKE OVER
The ex wwe guys came in
Can't wait to hear what Jim has to say about Jonathan Gresham cussing out Tony Khan.
It can't be as bad as the MJF pipe bomb...
@@matthewmagda4971 the "pipe bomb" was a work shoot. Gresham verbally shat on Tony backstage
@@natebaxter9551 Can't say that I blame him, Tony Khan has absolutely zero clue what he's doing.
Over royalties for his next book?
From what I know, Jim doesn't mind Gresham, in ring wise. Maybe he comes across more like he's performing than fighting, but he's not playing around. Jim doesn't care for him character and mic wise though.
Also, since he went up against Claudio, I'd think Corny might be harder on him.
Jericho going over made as much sense as this match
Jericho is one of the best in the world
Yeah especially after being hit with everything through barbed wire.
Come on man, it is long term story telling. Lol
@@savagereaper6291 ya know the excuse long term story telling is such an analogy to every aew match. First they tease how it will end, then they go hard, slow down so it's not all over take 20 Minutes to get going blow their load, still keep going, then when it's been to long term pull an ending out of your ass. It's not a dead ending to a match. It's called long term matchmaking.
This match was like the satanic spawn of WCW 2000 and ECW
Jericho thrown into a box of barb wire, into cardboard boxes off top of cage, into a pool of orange juice. Thrown into so much stuff, yet noone gets over.
No reason why Jericho should’ve won this. Eddie should’ve won this match to end the feud. It was the perfect set up…barbed wire stretch plum to finish the feud…would’ve been perfect
Edit : I actually could’ve forgave the run ins and brawl if it meant Eddie winning at the end. The brawl wasn’t too long
Yeah, that's my biggest issue with this.
Wasn't a fan of the gimmick match, but I guess I could understand it given how long the feud has been (and that they've already had a standard singles match).
But why in the hell did Jericho win?
For me I thought that Eddie MIGHT win until that cage botch and then said hell with it. Jericho will win
Eddie has no star power as a wrestler. He is a great talker. It made sense to make Jericho win here because I'm assuming the next feud will be JAS vs BCC.
This match was the type of thing Russo would have made in the dying days of WCW.
Nah, there wasn’t anything on a pole.
nah shitstain wouldn't book this. Remember he booked an "Electified cage match" where it was simulated by flickering lights & the wrestlers having to act like they "were getting electricuted"
Probably should have put the shark tank on a pole. Missed opportunity there.
Not even Russo would Book this Garbage and I think we owe Vince Russo an apology after watching this episode of Dynamite
@@bradcarver8127Conti shoulda been on a pole.
When I feel sad I love coming back to this video to hear Jim say, “It was cute in Japan… God. almighty!”
I am an AEW fan. I like a lot of things they put on TV. But this match was so unbelievably awful, it made me embarrassed to be a fan, and I haven't started listening yet, but whatever Jim says about it, it deserves all of it.
This is what finally made you feel embarrassed to be a fan of AEW..I was embarrassed half a year into aew
@@Sky_Blaze Then why the fuck do you watch it lol?? Do you value your time so little? Watch something you enjoy. And if you don't watch it, and only go by what Jim and others say, then your opinion is moot.
I think we all want AEW to be good tbh.
I'm also an AEW fan, and it's because I'm a fan that I want the promotion to get better and I am critical of it....it's just painful with matches like this.
Same. I want Jericho gone. He's old, fat, bald and needs to go.
Not only sitting through this, but having to actively seek out the ending….thank you for your service, Jim.

@@pleaseshutup7053 well it's alot simpler than complaining about hearing something that he already said days ago
@@Sky_Blaze stop it
@@Sky_Blaze who is complaining? It’s called excitement.
Chris Jericho is so desperate to be Sabu with these "hardcore" barbed wire matches. Except Sabu, during a barbed wire match nearly had his bicep completely ripped off his arm by a barbed wire rope but he taped it back on and continued wrestling.
Chris Jericho was offered a spot in both Metallica and The Rolling Stones, but he turned them both down.
Why would you want to be Sabu when you're already more famous and successful than Sabu? That's like Steph Curry saying he wants to be like JaVale McGee.
(Just to be clear I'm calling Jericho an idiot, not you OP.)
Didn't watch the entire match, so hearing that Jericho's guys got out from the cage sideways had me dying because the first thing I thought after seeing the cage was "man those bars seems too far apart"
I've been waiting for this for all day....
When Jericho was reinventing himself pre AEW, I admired his willingness to freshen up his gimmick and do new things...but AEW has been awful...my Wofe watched this match with me live, and she said it was the shittiest match she ever watched with me...it made me embarrassed to be a fan if Pro Wrestling...it was an aborrion...
I know how you feel, my wofe had an aborrion when they were noneteen.
It was Sports Entertainment
@@BlueBoardAnalysis it’s all sports entertainment lol
@@BlueBoardAnalysis No, it wasn’t. It was a garbage, indie-styled display of sadomasochism. There was nothing “professional” or “entertaining” about it, nor was it wrestling or sports. This was a fat guy and an old man cutting themselves with razor blades and bleeding on each other for 20 minutes. It was embarrassing.
His best match in years was only a few months ago. He can still be good but follows his worst instincts mostly ruclips.net/video/Cfz0xvte-YQ/видео.html
I'm surprised nobody is noticing that everything Kingston has been involved in (physically) has been equally as terrible as this was.
Most people aren't paying attention to the technical details. Kingston is way too stiff and it shows in a lot of his spots.
His first match with Jericho like a year ago was really good. Even cornette praised it. Just a regular old match.
I dunno man vs Miro, vs Punk, vs Jericho 1, vs Bryan were all very good matches imo.
Agree, Kingston is way overrated. That dude can talk but…that’s about it
It was a mere atrocity, saturated with botches, interferences, and bland outlaw wrestling! Kingston is palatable on the mic, but his physique is another story! Overall, a really poor main event that hardly anyone can benefit from!
Jellycho needs to retire!
I disagree with you that Kingston's palatable on the mic. The only thing he was good at was sounding like a tough, blue collar guy on the mic. Then being the dumbass that he is, Kingston complained about body shamers, which is the equivalent of admitting he's a fake tough guy not to be taken seriously.

@@DrSpoculus be Fr, that was a pretty bad match all around lmao
This is why AEW desperately needs a quality control guy, that isn’t pals with anyone in the roster, but knows wrestling. If I was quality control, I would have said,”why the fuc* is this shark cage? We HAVE to use it because of a shark week promotion? Ok, we’ll wrap barbwire around it so it’s not obvious people can get out.
"They just turned sideways and walked through the bars." 😆🤣😂
I could not believe my eyes when I saw this. 🤦🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️
The minute they slipped through the bars I turned to my other half and said "Cornette will have a stroke". Absolutely amazing that the AEW fans think this shit is good.
Chris Jericho has totally destroyed his legacy in AEW, and it's nobody elses fault either, it's all on him due to egotism, that big head disease, that Chris Jericho has had for 20 plus years now.....
I really can't decide what I like best about this classic for the ages... Jericho blading in full view of the entire planet (again-again), Jericho breaking his own nose like a meth'd-out backyarder in his first match, Jericho blatantly putting his arm through the barbed wire loop so Kingston could "choke" him better? Tay Conti viciously punching her own hand on Ruby Soho's shoulder, Tay viciously punching air molecules away from her opponent, Ruby punching with an "injured" hand, Tay Conti fumbling around with the padlock for a million years, the Jericoque-suckers just casually squeezing themselves through the bars of the cage sideways with zero difficulties? Or Kingston's Backfist of Doom?
So many nuggets to pick from in this turd. It was a Bountiful Barbed-Wire Bollocks Botch Buffet.
One more thing, the next time Tony's tykes run their mouths about "fat '80s Southern wrestlers that looked like crap", just show them a picture of Eddie Kingston. Bobby Eaton looked like Lex Luger in comparison.
Heck, just show them some Jeribloat pictures. Jeribloat’s pants don’t have a waistline, they have a coast line. Every time Jerikishi blades, bubbly and Ragu pour out. Way2Fat once rented a cruise ship for himself which capsized from over loading.
Jim's going to love FTR v The Briscoes. A fantastic match.
I got really depressed watching the replay of this. What made it worse was all the comments online about how great this was and how great Chris looked for doing this match and how much he has sacrificed for the business...
AEW can do no wrong in the eyes of the fans, no matter how shitty the segment/match is
@@EliC09 yea kinda crazy you can't really say anything not positive or they jump on you and bring up a wwe segment from years ago comparing it like that justifies it
Says a lot about AEW that I didn't watch this and had no intention of watching this, but couldn't wait to hear what Jim had to say about it.
Same. I don’t watch this garbage but I love hearing Jim rip it apart.
I want Sabu to fly to Amarillo, sit with Terry funk, and do a reaction video to the match. And compare the end of born to be wired where they had to be separated in the giant ball, to jericho taking minutes to be freed while whimpering from the sparsely covered board. Just to give giddy marks some perspective on what having barbed wire everewhere really looks like.
At one point in the first few months of AEW when Jericho was champion there was legit talk of him being one of if not the best of all time with all the gimmicks he had gotten over and how well he did reinventing himself. Now, he's pretty much washed all that away.
Nah I read a long long thread on reddit the other day. The AEW fans still champion this idea. They were all throwing flowers at him and debating if he was the GOAT. Stunning, really.
He was never considered THE best to my knowledge but was up there for longevity and recreating his character but the last few years have just shit all over his legacy tbh. His personality as well just seems to have an ego in overdrive and thinking he is THE GREATEST EVER 🤣🤣🤣🤣 got a better chance of singing for AC/DC then that to ever been considered
Absolute disgraceful match, just embarrassing.
Legend has it that, Tay Conti is still trying to open the padlock. For a second, I thought AEW can't become any worse than it has been for a while now...but this show proved that it can. It got me more excited for Shark Week than to tune in next week for Dynamite or Friday for Rampage.
Now I'm waiting on Jericho to say if we didn't like this match we don't love wrestling. 😂😂😂😂😂😂
9:52 “The feuds not even done!” 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
When I saw Ruby sitting at ringside with the control for the cage, I knew things would go downhill. And man, did they outdo themselves with nonsensical run-ins and chaos in the middle of a gimmick match. Sammy not being out there was a dead give-away, but when Tai came out to jump Ruby, and then Anna Jay came out and did a heel turn, it became even more of a clown car.
Poor Kingston ...is what I thought when I first saw Jericho latching onto him.
I don't watch AEW , but the same ... he Latched onto Nick Gage. He latched onto Pockets. He latched onto Sammy. He latched ...
Who has benefited from working with Jericho? Any feud with him is a black hole of suck.
That missed spinning fist by Kingston was roughy to watch
At this point I think Jericho egotistically does what he knows Jim will complain about not realizing it’s actually hurting his legacy more than agitating Jim. What else can explain an international high profile star being put in so many amateurish situations???
Joke's on whoever didn't tune out before this "match" started.
I wanted to see the trainwreck. Thats my excuse.
@@paullaing5921 "I wanted to see this trainwreck" should be AEW's official slogan.
I'm sure in Jericho's mind, this was a great match.
Well he thinks he is a Wizard. So clearly he has been hit in the head to many times.
In his mind, shit smells good.
too chubby middle aged men mutilating themselves for no reason, no thanks.
Lmao they turned sideways and walked through the bars
Was the fatter guy out of his jobbers able to get out, too?

Thank you AEW for giving Momma Cornette's baby boy material for all of us to enjoy. I watched this episode just to get ready for this! 🎾🎾🎾🎾
One of the worst episodes of Dynamite I've seen.
This match reminded me so much of the 2004 to 2007 era of me anticipating reading the spoilers for TNA shows.
Id click on the spoilers just to see how many random gimmick matches in ONE show they could throw in.
You'd get a reverse battle royal, an electrocuted cage match, a no dq casket on a pole match, a burning ladder match and a 16 man X division escape to the moon match.
The epitome of AEW being about as outlaw and mudshow as possible with this match right here!! 👏👏
Idk man the nick cage match was pretty damn close, and I can say that because I watched it live in the coliseum lol. Funny that both times involved Jericho.
I've notice that AEW have been badly booking ever since Cody left, It's like that Cody was the one always tell Tony if his booking was garbage and keep Tony in check. Now that Cody left, there's nobody backstage that tell Tony otherwise about his garbage booking.
Interesting point my friend
You give Cody too much credit, The booking has been terrible since day one
I skipped this match but I have to watch it once I hear the whole "Jericho broke his own nose on a Codebreaker". How in the hell they botch this match so much? Not even Robocop saving Sting from the cage look this bad.
🤣
He broke his nose? ... sigh, now I need to rewind the pvr for this shit. Lmao
Yeah, when Jericho hit the Codebreaker on Kingston while he had a chair, Kingston "accidentally" dropped the chair leg- first on Jericho's face.
Say what you will… Robocop showing up made people go nuts…I think I was 9..
You should watch it for the comedy
11:47 Brian's moment of harsh realization is a highlight of this video

8:39 "by the way did you hear that Aubrey Edwards changed her name to Donald Stevens" - Jim Cornette #AEWBotches 👍
I had a dream the other night where Corny kept calling Tay COnti, "Tay CUnti" and Brian would just correct him by saying " Conti". It was hilarious to me in my dream because they were just so non-chalant about it.
She should take on the nickname "The Total Cont"
I always call her Tay Cunti , lol
What an indie outlaw mudshow disaster
The way jim says barbed wire always gets me 😂😂😂
My thoughts:
1) It's weird that I have never heard Jim Cornette trash Mick Foley, Terry Funk, The Sheik, Dory Funk Sr., Dusty Rhodes, etc. This is not the first barbed wire match and it won't be the last.
2) Do I have a problem with a Barbed Wire Match being done. Absolutely not. Do I think you should give away a Barbed Wire Match on free television? No, I don't think you should. Make people pay to see that. Rule of thumb should be: Texas Deathmatches, Barbed Wire Matches, & Exploding Barbed Wired Deathmatches (Like Onita & Funk), Should strictly be on PPV. You can give away any other gimmick match for national television, Whether it's a ladder match, cage match, first blood match, submission match, etc. But the three above that, Should be PPV specials only.
3) Do I think you should book gimmick matches every week. Absolutely not. Gimmick matches should be used for one of two reasons. It needs to be either the blow off match for the feud, or it needs have some prize stipulations, Where there is something major to be gained by winning it. Example: Money In The Bank Ladder Match, The Royal Rumble, Torneo Cibernetico, etc. By winning the match, You earned a major prize. No different then having a tournament.
4) Was this Barbwire Match overbooked? Yes. Too many moving pieces involved and the Anna Jay turn at the end, I thought was a bad move.I probably would have inserted her into the Jungle Boy & Christian Cage storyline, After Luchasaurus pulls what Mark Henry did to John Cena years ago. Then she tries to stop a beatdown on Jungle Boy and she's is inserted into the program as Jungle Boy's valet and he now has some stakes on the line. This way down the road, You could have did Jungle Boy & Anna Jay vs Sammy Guevara & Tay Conti. Too late now I guess. It made no sense. If they were gonna add anyone new to the JAS, I probably would have went with Griff Garrison. Due to Guevara's friendship with him, His resemblance to a young Jericho and having the tools needed potentially get over down the road, But may need some direction.
5) Tony Khan & The Wrestlers need to start telling the director in the truck, Whenever there is a blade spot, When the spot is happening and where it is happening, So they can avoid the d*mn camera angle. It almost seems like they are trying to do it on purpose.

No disqualification. Lazy booking.
No DQ, the ref could do nothing about it according to the rules.
I was there my first ever wrestling show and Holy shit did the fans groan throughout the match
