No, I don't understand these weird scripted reality shows, it's like watching the Office but with no jokes and nobody can act.

Some of the stuff that was genuinely interesting to watch outside of a group setting to poke fun at it:
- Adam Cole's journey to coming back to the ring.
- Sammy Guevara reconciling with Eddie Kingston after their backstage fight.
- Tay being a sweetheart.
- Thunder Rosa giving her side of things and looking like the much bigger person than Britt "RARGH THUNDER ROSA" Baker. Though it really does seem like the entire frustration with Rosa was less about her personally and more about the status of the Women's Interim Championship. And Britt was far from alone there. Just seems like the frustration should've been more with AEW/Tony Khan instead of Rosa.
And then there's all the other stuff that wasn't exactly good, but was fun to goof on in a group setting. The Bucks stuff was probably the least interesting segments of the show because anything they shot for it was made completely redundant by BTE.

I enjoyed bits and pieces of it. The Cole stuff was genuinely heart warming, the Britt stuff was usually unbearable, Sammy makes you go back and forth on if he's likeable or not, and the Bucks stuff was just not interesting because they tell you they were miserable being off the show, but don't tell you why (yes, WE know). Despite all my complaints, I'm cool with it continuing. I enjoy backstage stuff and the live thread made it fun sometimes Oh I think my favorite was written TK was shown watching a women's match he looked like he was watching paint dry then later in the episode the way they edited the clip, if looked like he saw a basic wrestling move from Jericho and lost his shit "OH WOW THAT'S AWESOME" I mean if the basic wrestling move was an armbar it makes sense... since Jericho mastered it.

I DVR it…I’ve watched an episode or two while I’m falling asleep. I don’t love the weird pseudo-kayfabe they do, but it’s a reasonably entertaining show.

I'd genuinely forgotten it existed until this thread. Same. Tbh it doesn’t sound like anything I’d be interested in anyways.

I love watching it with people here after Dynamite. For as much as I've dunked on Sammy he comes off very likable on it, and Britt and Cole's relationship is very sweet, too, even though I like to joke about how she acts like his mom sometimes.

I've just never been a fan of "behind wrestlers real lives" shows.

Plus plenty of Sammy "Dennis Stamp" Guevara jokes whenever he said something similar to "I'm not booked."
But yeah, Sammy came off pretty well in the show and it goes a long way to making him more likable. Until he acts like a dumbass on Twitter again.

I watched two or three episodes and gave up on it. "Reality" tv isn't really my thing, some of those storylines were laughable (the Bucks), and aside from Tay deserving better, I can't say the Britts and the Coles and the Sammys are talent I'm particularly interested in, whether it's on Dynamite or here.

Not really, but from what I've seen really the only thing that's been interesting is Adam Cole trying to get cleared. Everything else seems super fabricated

It’s weird I saw a commercial last week on TBS/TNT hockey coverage that claimed All Access shows you what’s really going on behind the scenes in aew so its odd they have so many obviously fake stories. The Ruby thing was humorous because I’ve seen interviews with Bayley & Tegan claiming Ruby is a sweetheart who checks in on all the girls when injured and brings them stuff while in wwe. I guess being in aew really changed her.I expect them to reveal Willow beats up the elderly for sport.
This definitely is the kind of show that my few wrestling fan friends hate but non fans love.
