Last time Christian was in the main event of an AEW PPV we got the double debut of Cole and Danielson. Not sure they can top that, but I’m interested to see what they have in store tonight.

The unfortunate aspect is that people will lose their minds if Edge DOESN'T show up now with how it's built. It's like 99.9% happening though

It's like 99.9% happening though TK keeps hyping it as a big night as well which drives part of it. I’m an Edge fan so I’ll be happy to see him, but I’ll be honest I’m expecting more than just him showing up. Calling this the start of a “new age” promises something bigger than one guy showing up.

Yeah he definitely is batting around 50/50 when it comes to the reception of his hype over the years. Great thing for AEW is that it's always the unexpected cards that turn out the best.

AEW is getting as bad as TNA was with showcasing the debuting former WWE stars as the biggest deal. CM Punk debuts and gets pushed to the top right away. Saraya debuts and gets pushed to the top right away. Daniel Bryan and Adam Cole debut and get pushed to the top right away. Sure looks like Edge is about to debut, and where do you think he’ll end up on the card?

TNA would take a guy like Val Venis and push them over their own main eventers. They're very different companies.

I honestly couldn't care less if Edge shows up or not. I just feel like there are enough people not getting spotlighted who would just move even further down the card. If the return of CM Punk wasn't enough to get AEW to the next level I don't see why Edge would be.

Unfortunately agree...One thing I do think will be interesting though is that people will finally see just how far ahead of Edge Christian really is when it comes to promos, in ring etc without the machine....Since Christian left for TNA he has grinded his way into a different category than Edge I feel regardless of how "big time" he comes off... I will freely admit that it's a very stupid thing to hold onto all these years considering the people involved don't but I never allowed myself to embrace Edge or Lita because of the public assassination of Matt by them and WWE back in the day. I got using their affair as story and still do somewhat but it was always another thing that irked me in the comparisons of Christian and Edge and their true character...

Not sure we will get the same reception as Edge simply considering this has been alluded to for awhile now and she has seemingly settled in outside of WWE (Injury didn't help this run following either).

Considering his main subject he loves to write about and the reception Steve gets outside of that guys fandom I figured I would screen shot this and share it as I knew it would be deleted quick...and it has... I mean...This can't be serious right? Like I know I am pretty clueless at the stuff I post at times but this is a new level of awareness. He seemingly cannot begin to fathom why he is not endearing to the AEW population

Sure looks like Edge is about to debut, and where do you think he’ll end up on the card? Danielson didn't get 'pushed to the top right away'. They put him and Kenny into a big title dream match to pop a TV rating and since then he's won pretty much nothing of consequence to the point a lot of the fanbase are mad he keeps saying no to titles. That's versus TNA, where the random schlub-ass motherf***ers in the world would show up and automatically push any homegrown stars right down the card. AEW has so, so far to go before they even come close to being TNA levels of burning their own roster up to court ex-WWE guys and it feels like you either didn't watch TNA in those periods or don't remember how bad it was, because that's really not close to happening here. Also I don't think you can say Swerve doesn't count as a 'WWE star' and then follow it up by naming Adam Cole, three-time ROH champion who never even made it to main roster television.

10 match main card though. Which is pretty standard

Nothing against Statlander but I REALLY hope they strap up Julia she can do IMO so much more with the title and she is getting better and better and the way she has stepped into almost being the leader of HOB in Blacks absense is also pretty impressive.
I said it already but this is one Statlander can afford to lose and she should.

That would be best case scenario for me. I've always liked Edge but he's 49 years old and had a perfect sendoff in his hometown. I don't need to see him wrestle again. Mercedes though is still in her prime and a big enough name that it might force Tony to give the women more time.

I'm not sure how I feel about Edge because I really haven't seen him wrestle in Year's because I don't watch WWE the only thing that I really don't like about Edge is that running hug move he calls a spear

14 matches on this card. Hope you guys are packing a lunch. Tony did that thing again where he crammed a bunch of matches on the pre-show. Hopefully the crowd stays with it the whole night because it looks like a great card.

Hopefully the crowd stays with it the whole night because it looks like a great card. I think people still have bad memories from the Double or Nothing show that went over 4 hours but ever since then - all AEW PPVs have been a little under 4 hours with 10-12 matches that are generally paced pretty well. The crowd is also on the west coast so at least it won't be close to their bed time when the main events come on.
