Had no idea this is free too. Dope. I don’t know if it had been officially announced, but I know it was expected to be the same deal as FyterFest

I’ll share the sentiment in Jake being an amazing interview for the tag team segment. He was clear he hated tag team wrestling because he couldn’t trust anyone but in kayfabe, he’s been in enough tag team matches or seen enough tag teams to know what works, especially in the WWF where it was a mostly stacked tag division. The funny thing is, the last time Jake was in a "regular"/"official" tag team, it was with the Barbarian (Nord, not Sione) in Mid-South 1985...and it ended when Nord turned on Jake to join Humperdink's stable.

Huh, so it must be out of country where you must order it on Fite as it was announced airing on there.

Only tag title Jake's ever held was the World Class 6 man titles with Chris Adams and Gino Hernandez

Holy shit, a team of Havoc, Janela, and Allin? MJF might literally get murdered. Instantly the part of the card I’m most excited for. Hardcore Sadboys are all faces in AEW, it’s so weird, but not in a bad way. It’ll be interesting to see how MJF, Spears, and Guevara all interact when it seems like they should all hate one another.

I will be curious to see what happens between MJF and Shawn Spears. Guess we'll get to see if there is any sincerity between MJF's Cody affection, or if it's all a put on. Guessing it'll be the latter, but then again, who knows.

Yeah, I'm like the dynamic of AEW's three anti-faces against what is essentially AEW's worst people ever.

Get ready for more blood. Because there is enough edge in that team to not even need a bladejob.

Throw on Mox as the fourth, and it makes sense.

They were f***ing awesome as a team. www.youtube.com/watch?v=vczmz-dOYUsThe best part about their run is that Watts wanted to turn the team of DiBiase and Doc face, so he put them in a bunch of heel vs heel matches with Jake and Barbs across the circuit, but the crowds took to Jake and Barbs and turned them face instead.

I meant heel turn wise in kayfabe, nothing to do with quality. But I will take a gander now.

So we'll get the rest of the card then.
I expect two more matches to be announced.

Nice to see them shoot back a bit about the Bucks/Omega being dismissive of Cody and Dustin. Like, obviously, it's kayfabe, but it's touching on a fun dynamic.

For the record, TAKA is a goddamn legend. Absolutely, but kinda got the impression that Cody was saying that if Omega can see that, then his ignorance about Dustin's work was a shock.

This was an effective use of their WWE history too. "You guys keep calling out all the WWE tag teams for claiming they are the best, but you won't respect us when we've beaten a lot of those teams." It's something that actually has me wondering if The Bucks might come up short at Fight for the Fallen simply because they are too dismissive of The Brotherhood.

I think they might be, given how the Bucks have been winning all their matches so far. I mean, so's Cody, but still, they might be due for a bit of humility. Also, wonder any if Shawn's issues with Cody might also go to how he picked Dustin as his partner for the match and not Spears. Obviously, he's had other issues, seemingly, but could see that also fueling the fire and his delusions.
