The "let's not take this shyt so seriously" AEW news & fukkery thread

[TheAlbionist]

This randomly popped into my BlueSky feed so I watched the entire thing for the feels with a spliff and a couple of things stood out.

First of all, watching this knowing how the DR angle plays out with Hangman it fukkin' HITS. Hanger still in "there is no such thing as redemption" mode, OC (correctly) saying he's not the guy even if he's the one trying. The way they got from this to All In

But really because it shows Will Ospreay started wearing tape on his upper back when Kyle dropped him with the Storm Driver/Tiger Driver/Whatever. I've got the memory of a goldfish, but I hadn't put it all together.

Will said in his Dynamite promo that he's been "hiding it" for around 8 months, I think. All that shyt happened about 8 months ago.

Ospreay's been telling us Kyle fukked his neck ever since it happened. They coming back for some serious shyt down the line

Is this their way of saying Eddie Kingston is coming back soon?

Gahdamn I forgot he was still out. I hope he comes back as a manager/stable leader

The closest one to me is like 3.5 hours away. Been there a few times and was ok. Long ass line but been a few years so not sure if hype died down but in a major tourist area so likely not. But good for the company to get these type of deals and more marketing out there.

WWE counterprogramming.

Not a big number but still good to see things off to a good start with no matches or anything announced. Not like Toronto that could have Cope and Christian. Should def beat that last Dynasty.

'WrestleDream' is probably their worst PPV by far. It doesn't have any brand recognition or anything that's tied to it. I don't remember St. Louis being a great market for them either.

There's a lot of cities they haven't run PPVs in. They should expand that next year.

I would not mind him spending more time in Japan and only making occasional AEW visits. Treat Take like a special attraction for a while.

Absolutely spiked him... I'm hoping it was somehow intentional and controlled like when PAC takes a DDT otherwise
