I honestly didn’t expect we’d ever see that match but I’m glad for it.

[Dub H]

Heard great things about it,can't wait.

[Oh Cry Me a Screwball]

So, they did indeed tape the match. I’m glad, because I can attest that this match was really good. Best match from the Cruise.

Was it mixed tag or intergender?

Pretty sure they mixed it up with each other, too, which would be intergender, I think? I always confuse the two.

Mixed tag is guys VS guys and girls VS girls. Intergender is guys and girls can fight one another.

Intergender. Everybody wrestled everybody. Easily the best Kip match I've ever seen

This is gonna be huge for AEW. I hope the reception is good for it as well. This is an important match for all of wrestling as a whole to experience and I hope it begins to open more doors.

From what I heard, Omega starts the match with Ford, so they go IG right out of the gate here.

[Mozenrath]

I know that TK, TNT, or both weren't keen on intergender matches at all, so that they did the match, and are going to be showing it, is a good sign. I imagine it is going to be a bit of a test, and I hope it goes over nicely with fans for that reason.

I figure this is also a pretty good way of getting fans more into Riho. She's already well-liked, but it's not like it hurts to give us a bit more of an opportunity to latch onto what makes her as a character tick.

Kenny Omega involved in a match that's really really good and could go down as mega important and even a landmark match?


...seriously though (not that I'm not serious in my initial statement. Kenny Omega is a goddamn amazing work of art and we are lucky to be alive at the same time he's an active worker and in his prime) I think it's awesome that Tony K gave this the OK and that they seemingly had the right people all around involved.

I *think* if they do this right...and this goes over well...you'll see more of it long term and, as long as they don't get farcical with it to something like attitude era levels of overkill, and you'll see a sort of trickle down effect on the other parts of roster in terms of people getting over, etc.

I'm here for this. 100%

Same reaction here.

Hoping this leads to Penelope wrestling more often in AEW, in the event that Baker doesn't improve much in the ring as a heel, even with her character's progress lately.

I don't see Dark up yet. Hmm.

That was a fun match

[Mandarin Dessert Version 0]

While it was a fun match, what took me out of it was the one-camera shot set-up that annoyed me. Was there any reason why it was not shot like normal Dark/Dynamite matches?
