And I don’t miss Riho either. Especially as Champ. Way too small.

Outside of WWE, there aren’t many places where Joey Janela gets squashed by Lance Archer. There are guys on Dark for that. They are showing the resiliency of the character. The whole guys dead but he somehow kicked out. Lance still looked impressive (& won) and Janela wasn’t totally buried (& it probably helped his character). Regardless what anyone on the board believes about JJ, he was signed as an initial member of the opening roster because they like him and see something in him. Really? I assumed he was along for the ride because he was friends with someone in the Elite in real life... he's only been on TV like 4 or 5 times... they had him lose a feud to Kip Sabian, then he was one a couple times telling us he needed to refocus. I'd never really seen him before AEW, but what he's shown puts him little above the local jobbers they've been grabbing for squash duty.

He was getting a push in Evolve and some pretty good ovations. He’s most known for being off of a roof tho.

Not sure what they're going to do with Cage now... I guess Taz throwing in the towel for him was to protect him, and I like that Mox has a strategy, but it would have made ALOT more sense to have Darby Allin cost him the match if they were got set that feud up anyway.
Cody was in full heel mode at the start... interesting. The Orange Cassidy thing was great fun. Not sure why they wasted time with 'the Nightmare Sisters'. I can't think of anything I would care less about than a Dustin & Brandi Rhodes Vs. QT Marshall and 'Ally' feud.
Liking FTR and the tag division atm... I think they need to give one of those teams a title shot now though... or maybe have a #1 contender match.

I am looking forward to this match tomorrow night: I remember years ago when Will Hobbs was in the tag team Cold Cold World me and Toasterboy almost released CWFH cards of them.

Nice to see Eddie Kingston have a match here. The thing I didn't like was needing to explain why having Eddie Kingston in this match was such a great thing to the newbies I was watching with tonight.

The roster is pretty huge.... seems like that's not going to work long term... can they really pay guys like, say Shawn Spears to be off TV for months?

Was it Hobbs or the other guy who began flaking out on CWFH and I couldn’t get him to fill out his moves? I forget. But that’s who Ceasar B. Black was supposed to manage. Bummed that never happened.
