This OTS review delivered. While I am glad Powerhouse Hobbs is 100% healthy, his surprise return was thrown out the window with no plans in sight, except this "angle" against the DCF. 🤦🏻♂️
I’m not gonna lie… I enjoy these shows in a vacuum and having my expectations so low to the ground that I am not disappointed with them… But deep down, this shit is not great… All Elite Wrestling has lost its way… and I refuse to ever be fully invested in whatever they do business wise. It’s a good thing I’m a great actor when it comes to when I do Watch Along Coverage commentary style… But everything JD says needs to be digested and not completely thrown away, and that goes double for Tony Khan…
Who else in the IWC is doing these shows, with the passion and emotion that JD is? Nobody, that's who! In all seriousness brother, while I disagree with you on NXT, I am always entertained by the shows, and you are spot on with everything you're saying about AEW as well. Even if the sickos don't like to hear it.
Aew did 520,000 in the ratings. And NXT did 612-613,000. Aew has beyond officially lost their viewership. It's as Bischoff said, when you lose your viewership, it's hard to get it back. And the way tony is booking doesn't seem like he wants to get it back. What a shame man. Now we have Matt Hardy saying TNA is looking to go to go to a bigger network to get more viewership. But hey, this is Tony khan's doing. He wants to book for the sickos..well how's that working now? Smh
Thing is you can get it back as long as you put on compelling television. Look at WWF back in 1996. They were reaching record low viewership and struggling with attendance similar to AEW now because of cartoonish television. In 1997, they bounced back well because Vince finally started to care about compelling TV and also started catering to the adult audience and the ratings finally went up and they started selling out.
A couple things. • I might be in the minority when I say this but I was more entertained with the ECW Nostalgia than this week's Dynamite • The House of Black in my eyes are close to being in the Pinnacle territory. The BIG Group with potential only to be a disappointment. Let's be honest here. The only one that is a success in the House of Black is Julia Hart before she got injured. Malakai Black hasn't done shit since Cody Rhodes. Brody King I don't give a fuck. Buddy Matthews.....WHO? exactly. • let's be honest here This Death Riders vs AEW thing is gonna end with The Death Riders vs The Golden Elite in Kenny Omega, The Bucks, and Kota Ibushi. • The Don Callis Family gets a different group each week. First with Ospreay, and Sammy Guevera, then with Kyle Fletcher, and Will Ospreay and Rush, then with Kyle Fletcher, Will Ospreay and Trent Beretta. And now with Brian Cage and Lance Archer and Kyle Fletcher and Kenosuke Takeshita and supposedly still Trent Beretta. • Christian Cage is the only WWE guy that is actually taking advantage of his opportunity and actually doing some of the best work of his career with this "I'm your new Daddy" • Sasha Banks in AEW isnt a draw. FIGHT ME • Tell me why I should care for a 50 year old Hurt Business group? Yes Bobby Lashley still looks good. Yes Shelton Benjamin can still wrestle, yes MVP is a better manager than he was a wrestler. But why should I care for a Hurt Business Reboot? Why should I care for an already established group and them taking a spot from a younger tag team. • also and I say this with respect JD. Can we stop with this WWE ID "They signed WHO?" shit. Cause if they get someone from HOG Wrestling alot of people also are gonna be saying WHO? cause not everyone watches HOG Wrestling owned by Master P. I personally don't know Jack shit who is in HOG Wrestling other than Santana and Amazing Red.
The smooth ass aura that the Syndicate has is insane. It looked like NFL pros visiting a high school on career day. If Tony screws this up ain’t no hope for him. The focus should be on them and not Mox’s forced group. Moxely should be a babyface against, too many heels
I also truly truly feel aew, and it's fandom, died when CM punk left. Especially knowing what the Bucks were doing behind the scenes. Aew was supposed to be the alternative to give us the wrestling and stories that WWE wasn't doing under Vince the last few years. And Punk was suppose to be the face of this aew alternative revolution. Once he left and then seeing what WWE is doing now under HHH..they checked out. They're like aew ain't trying to be serious man.
Deathriders need to be in everyone's shit if they want people to believe they are taking over. Tag team match, shows up and ruins the match, women's match, they there too. Then it means something when someone like orange does rep the brand vs moxley even though you know he isn't going to win.
JD really making Tony fear for is life with each review 😂

You're not the only one, I enjoyed NXT too, nothing wrong with enjoying what they did.
The smooth ass aura that the Syndicate has is insane.

AEW will be dead if they keep making these mistakes.
Well they won't be at least for the next 3 years.
Dead? No. Irrelevant? Definitely.
Lol imagine if Tony D'Angelo vs Nunzio took place on AEW. TK would literally have Tony sell so much for Nunzio and make it a 10-15 min match.
I can’t lie. I love NXT. The feel of it is awesome.
I also truly truly feel aew, and it's fandom, died when CM punk left. Especially knowing what the Bucks were doing behind the scenes.

I’m going to Survivor Series! Hoping to watch OTC and IYO
Who cooks better HHH or JD? I mean, Jd cooks greatly, but HHH cooks greater. But if JD cooks the cookiest, then how can HHH cookier even more?
