Now I want more videos of Cody bringing up random shit to piss Dustin off.
Cody: You know I heard Matt and Nick at Cracker Barrell saying the most they remember you from was your Black Reign days... Dustin: I am literally going to kill their entire family.

The Cody & Dustin stuff continues to be tremendous.In one brief video a friendly matchup is now personal and it was 100% believable.

I thought that was a good interview from Spears.
I liked Hangman's promo but boy should they have built him up more

Tony Schiavone needs to replace Alex Marvez immediately.

Tony Schiavone need to replace Alex Marvez immediately. Texted my friend exactly that as soon as I saw him doing the control center. If I’m being real I’d actually take him over current JR but I’d defintiely be content with the trio of Excalibur, Ross, and Schiavone.

I'm sure they will do it within a few weeks but they really should have went into who Tully Blanchard is. If you're a newer fan you're not going to get the significance of that

The Page promo is too shouty for my tastes, but I like the basic concept behind it. Shawn Spears' promo is way more to my taste. That choice of manager, is in a word, Shaaaaameful. (Kudos to anyone who understand that reference )

(Kudos to anyone who understand that reference ) Spears needs to harness that easy going, yet dangerous vibe he showed here. Really great promo and hopefully these kinds of interviews will be on the TV show in October because they do so much to make you believe the person is legit. Honestly, Page should get one as well in the lead up, probably get people a bit more on his side.

I feel like there is a better person than 2019 Jim Ross, who looked pretty rough after all of the miles life has put him through, but I love the sit-down format and I hope the response to Shawn Spears' gives Cody and Tony confidence to keep it up (and maybe move Alex Marvez, sports writer, to that post rather than behind the comms table) for future stars and storylines.
But man have there been just so many different ways to tell a wrestling story that AEW has tried in the lead up to TV and most of them have worked pretty well.

I say just bite the bullet with this Page deal,have him.win the title but turn heel ,going crazy on jis friends as they try to congralate him,letting his psyco self get crazy with power.

Tony Schiavone is amazing. The more they use him, the happier I'll be. I've said it before but the 'big time' feel that they put across makes such a big difference. Just adds legitimacy to feuds and storylines. Little things make a massive difference.

Just adds legitimacy to feuds and storylines. Little things make a massive difference. I don't know if Tony wants to do wrestling again in a full time context, but if you have JR running talent relations and doing the sit-downs, with Schiavone, JR, and Excalibur calling the action... man, that's magic. Nobody can be perfect, and AEW has certainly made some mistakes (that weird battle royal is a great example), but they're doing 3 things that I have sorely missed in American wrestling for years. 1. Just because we all know it's a work doesn't mean you have to treat it like one. 2. It's a cliche, but the "Big fight feel" is finally back. That comes from treating it like a sport. 3. They embrace the past without relying on it. Tully as a manager? Excellent call. Having Jake, who is probably the greatest in-ring psychologist ever lay out your story? A master stroke. I'd love to see more of the legends used this way. Blassie, Heenan, Albano... they all started out as wrestlers that used their skills later in life to be great managers. One of my wrestling wish-lists is seeing Moxley go even deeper in his new-found persona and have Jake Roberts be the one that gives us an absolute ruthless killer of a heel. Seriously, I haven't been this excited for American wrestling in over a decade.

Marvez is fine, but he really shines when he is doing taped segments like the spot where he went through the numbers for Bucks/Brotherhood. Schiavone's voice is like the epitome of the big time feel you're talking about.

Just throwing this out there... ...everything comes full circle eventually. And this is 3rd time that Dusty's past has caught up to his sons. "Tully Blanchard...Tully Blanchard is nothing more than a watermelon thief, egg sucking dog!! Shawn Spears, Cody offered up his innocence and you paid him back with scorn! To hell with you, Shawn Spears!!"

It would probably take a lot of money to get Schiavone to be FT to wrestling. He has a pretty good gig with the University of Georgia doing production on their football and basketball radio broadcasts and then does PBP for the Triple A (I think) Gwinnett Braves in the summer. He's also going to be doing some work with MLW this fall I think. However, I think he would be a guy that would be worth using whenever he is available. He's been so much fun since he's returned to wrestling with the podcast.
