10/10, largely because I saw it all live.

I feel like Omega/Ospreay 10's it alone for me.

I went 8.5 but I’ll bump it up to a 9. Very good show. Honestly, it kind of suffered the AEW problem of having too much on one show. If Cole/Lawlor got on here it would have been a mess.
Takeaways: Danielson/Okada underwhelmed big time, Omega/Ospreay exceeded my high expectations. The four way for the international title was fun. Punk/Kojima rocked.
Sting needs to retire. He’s done. One more tag at All In and call it a day.

I'll go 9.
Honestly, Forbidden Door continues to be a great love letter to wrestling and a lot of fun. If Ospreay/Omega main evented? Easy 10. Why did I bring it down to a 9? The 2 matches afterwards while fine, were just that fine. They just couldn't follow the US title match.

9.5
Really thought it was going to be a 10 but end kind of squandered that for me, personally.
The 4-way, five on five, and Kenny/Ospreay II were all incredible.

9. Would've been the easiest 10 ever if not for the main event

I gave it a 7. Some stuff I liked. Some stuff I didn’t.
It was a wrestling show for sure and a good one. I just don’t think it was a great one.

Omega/Ospreay was absolutely awesome. All the LIJ boys (except Titan) were here this year. The 10-man tag was insane. The 4-way was great. Punk got booed out of the building. BRYAN DANIELSON HAS THE FINAL COUNTDOWN AGAIN!
10/10, best show of the year.

9.5, rounded to a 10 for purposes of rating. About as great a night of pro wrestling as you can ask for. Ospreay/Omega was incredible. Punk/Cozy exceeded my expectations. BCC/Eddielite was amazingly fun. Absolutely loved the International title match. Sting and freaking Minoru Suzuki in a ring together?!
The main event was maybe a little underwhelming as compared to the hype, but still an incredible match. And seeing Bryan enter to the Final Countdown to face Kazuchika Okada in 2023? Come on. I think sometimes I take for granted how insane it is that AEW even exists and puts on the kinds of shows that it does.

And on an additional note, I really really liked KK & Ex together. Both with Taz and Shiavone. Dunno if ima be ordering more AEW PPV’s but those two need to be a team on future PPV’s 👍🏻

One more tag at All In and call it a day. Sting had genuinely never had a bad match in AEW before today and was going great in this match specifically until Sammy slapped him in the head on his stupid spot. How anyone can blame what went wrong in that match on Sting and not Sammy is beyond me. Anyways probably an 8. The Punk/Kojima, four way, ten man tag matches all absolutely killed it. Willow looked like a star again, Ospreay/Omega had a great closing stretch at least, and Danielson/Okada was an interesting exercise even if it wasn't as good as it could have been if the crowd weren't dead.

10 - probably the best wrestling event I've ever been to.
