The tag title match was amazing. And even though all four of those guys are top tier wrestlers, Ospreay carried that match to make it twice as good as it would have been with anyone else in that spot. That's not at all a knock on the Jacksons or even Fletcher, but Ospreay is just SO ridiculously good. As great as Danielson is, even he not on his level imo.
@@samuraimonkie5748. I agree on this too. I’m very impressed with Kyle and think he’s going to be a megastar in this industry as long as he stays healthy
I like the Darby and Moxley match; it told a story. The avalanche deathrider was the same finish used in their last match. Once Darby finally kicks out of this move or reverse it; its lights out for Moxley.
I think they're clearly building to Mox winning at WrestleDream and then Darby eventually being the guy to dethrone him at some point in 2025. And I'm here for it.
@moo2k4 I'm definitely here for that, but part of me is still disappointed that Darby lost. Wrestledream is the first PPV event I'll be attending live and Darby is my favorite wrestler. I would've loved to see him in a big match as the hometown hero.
mvp was baiting prance nana. i was expecting lashley to come out but i guess they are saving the hurt business for a later reveal. lio can keep chanting lashley's name, which he is known for.
@@rezsurfer2808 The business card MVP gave Nana had "Hurt Syndicate" printed on it under MVP. MVP also came out of the heel tunnel, this is probably setting up a feud with Swerve.
I disagree with your prediction that Fletcher and Ospreay are leaving Callis. I’m suspecting Fletcher to side with Callis and Ospreay to feud with Fletcher.
Great show as usual Simon however...........PLEASE BRING BACK RETRO UPS AND DOWNS I know you don't actually read the comments but I just like saying it
OUT OF THE WHOLE SHOW, CONGRATS AND HATS OFF TO NIGEL MCGUINNESS!!! AFTER ALL THESE YEARS, STILL HAS IT! GREAT MATCH! Also, amazing piece from HOOK to retire the FTW Championship and giving it back to Taz.
JR is fucking useless, and actually tried to seemingly turn Nigel babyface with what he told us Nigel said to Bryan at the end; Nigel's intention was *LITERALLY* the *opposite*...
I think the FTW Championship was put out to pasture because Roderick Strong was involved. After he lost the NXT Cruiserweight Championship to Carmello Hayes a few years ago, that belt was retired immediately after. The man might just be the death knell for lower mid-card Championships.
@@BryRobinson so what was the point in having darby win the number one contenders match for a shot at the world title then & why don't they just do a 3 way instead? as i actually would like to see bryan vs darby before bryan retires full time
@@imobjectivelybalancedonTHEball What if Moxley ends up "retiring" Bryan and later on Darby is the one to challenge Moxley again and win the belt from him. It's called storytelling. Moxley has always been the Achilles Heel to Darby
@@tomseville2345 for sure. Mariah has had 3 differnt gear sets since she won. I think it's just the dalmatian pattern with the red and that most women wear similar gear sets.
I love how WWE fired Bryan for using a tie to choke someone. So you know he really means business if he's doing that again. The symbolism isn't lost on me. Golden Up!
Mox, Shafir, Claudio, PAC, and even Christian cage are forming an anti AEW super faction that is going to feature ex WWE guys. If mox can’t put an end to what Bryan Danielson has done for AEW then Christian Cage will. It’ll all be revealed at the end of WrestleDream.
unfortunately she had a miscarriage earlier.. the only 'update' i found was from may, that said she was injured, but didn't say what kind of injury or anything, and that she was on a per appearance contract with aew at the time.
2 things, did Nigel McGuiness say thank you or f you to Brian, and did Hook give u pthe FTW championship due to him leaving AEW, it has been rumored for months now?
Stupid question: How would you describe Nigel McGuinness’ Tower Of London finisher? It looks like a cross between a Whipper-Snapper and an Ace Crusher. Further, how is it any different from the Whipper-Snapper variant that D-Von used to do for a while?
After watching TNA, I saw nic nemeth tell the referee about brass knucks and it made me think Why doesn’t everyone do that? At Grand Slam, Ospreay was conscious so he could have said they used the titles and then Christopher Daniels restart it
The AEW Tag Team Championship match has to be one of the best tag team championships matches I’ve seen all year, I would like to see this match again, but like Simon said…..they did everything in this match.
Hotel quiet hours or not, thank you for making it easy for me to take the occasional break from watching weekly shows but still stay clued in. You’ve always been the best Simon ❤
Maybe just wait till the next day and make a video? Or, care less about what the other hotel guests think? Idk, but this was not an enjoyable video, Simon.
I have to disagree with Simon on one match. The women’s world title match was quite sloppy to me and I feel like there was in fact a lack of chemistry between Mariah and Iyuka, some of the pins seemed a little delayed and sometimes it looked like Mariah was almost sandbagging a lot of her selling
Just Like MJF Darbey is yet to beat Jon Moxely. He had okce called him prodigy and now has 3-0 against Darbey and no matter how much Darbey gives he somehow comes up short aginst that death rider. I thibk Mox will have heel run as chamo and the way he put over MJF clean he will do the favours for Darbey probabaly after kickong out of that Death Rider and giving AEW probably their biggest crowining moment!
The spot where Darby went out thru the turnbuckles and bounced off the steps on the way down looked pretty nasty. Im also pretty sure the very first shot opened up Darby's mouth. Commentary didnt mention it for awhile but I noticed it very early. These 2 are insane. It was an ok match and I dont think Darby shouldve lost but we all knew he would and Mox aint gonna get the win over BD. Hopefully Darby gets another shot soon and maybe could be the one to take it from BD? And who cares about MVP? I never thought he was that great? Better manager than wrestler, could be a mouth piece for someone but I really dont want to see Lashley or Shelton. AEW does not need more ex WWE talent. I think they shouldve used Ethan Page more and better but ultimately he left to better things. And congrats to him and I hope he does amazing. Also WHERE THE F IS WARDLOW? Will we see him on NXT? I think AEW needs to get some good story lines going for some of the awesome talent that are being under utilized. Also Where is DMD? She lost her return match and we havent seen her since? Mercedes Where is she at? I like seeing a lot of who they put on but maybe less learning queef and more awesome talent?
Hello Simon. I don't believe the number went up on the crime counter when you were talking about Don Callis and the screwdriver. The crime counter was also at 65 on Monday for Drew McIntyre. Lol, sorry, I am also a massive nerd, and I notice these things.
Ah. Well, be patient. It'll happen, but Toni will need to stay away for another few months to build up anticipation. In the meantime, looks like they have a few stories to run with Mariah.
Like Swerve and Hangman switching roles despite what Swerve had done to him, because they attacked MJF when they formed as an "evil heel" stable, The U.K. will now be 100% babyface for doing that to Max... 🤣🤣
NGL….this was the first ever match that I actually liked involving the Coocamunga Kids. The finish was cool too. AEW when they tell stories is better than when they ignore storylines
Hope this leads to Darby going on a winning streak. Darby lost Sting’s bat to Jay White. And as a Sting fan for decades, this is very disappointing. Get the bat back first, then get the title.
I admit I was disappointed with the Stadium setting; the crowd looked huge from the upper tier tracking camera; but the short aisle (instead of the "NY Road" LED ramp) and no pyro ruined the Grand Slam atmosphere the last few years' Arthur Ashe shows had. The Bucks and Okada didn't even get their entrance lift facility...

If you think about it with McGiness and Bryanson, Danial will most likely lose the title at Wrestle Dream then disappear for surgery and semi-retirement so with Tony being such an ROH fanboy (he bought the company afterall) he had to fast track this ROH dream match before the window was gone. And technically Nigel has kinda been promoting this match on Collision commentary for about a year now. I am shocked Tony paid for Final Countdown on network tv though maybe this was Bryanson's last tv match and this is how he was sent off.
