I feel like Grand Slam is gonna set up popular figures as champs (so either of Mox/Danielson, OC, and The Acclaimed) and set them up to have the rest of the fall to have MJF's people be the heel follies for them.

I'm split on the women's match. I don't want to get too bogged down in talking about the broader problems with it, like, that conversation was exhausted in the Dynamite thread, but on one hand I feel like it should be putting a much-needed spotlight on Toni and really cementing her as a champion worth caring about when she's already started off on the backfoot, while on the other I feel like they should use this being a big show to finally get to the f***ing point on Britt / Hayter after dragging this storyline out for like 600 years at this point.
I dunno. It's tricky. It feels like the ideal time to pull the trigger on a firm breakup but it kind of risks saddling Toni with just being an afterthought champion having that happen in her first defense. And I guess you could course-correct whenever Rosa comes back but who knows when that'll be.

Hayter should be in the match. She’s the one people actually want to see.
Athena has done nothing in kayfabe to justify being there.

Hayter targeting the champ to me signifies she is gonna be built up to facing the champ, so her being in this match just to not win wouldn't be wise It still makes no sense for Athena to be here. Also Hayter is the most over one, so why not put her here?

Also Hayter is the most over one, so why not put her here? My thought is Britt will have an opportunity to win and Hayter will screw her, and that's a reason she didn't attack Britt tonight, so Britt wouldn't see it coming.

Feel like you should open with either The Acclaimed or OC winning their first AEW title, then do the other one at the top of the second hour, then close with Danielson/Mox. And I kind of hope those are the only 4 matches for the Dynamite portion of the card. Give each one the proper amount of time needed.

I genuinely feel like this HAS to be OC’s time. I’ve been crushed over and over again though when it comes to him, so I’m trying not get too excited about it, but man. He deserves a title so much and PAC has the trios titles now, he doesn’t need both. I just can’t stand to see OC get another title shot and lose.
I’ll be there and I’m hyped.

Having Chris Jericho challenge for the ROH title seems really weird, but interesting weird. That would be like if Hogan challenged for the NWA title.
