I'm kind of waiting to see what the card shapes up like after Dynamite, but I went from "Nah" to "maybe" after All In, because even matches that I wasn't really invested in had some fun stuff in them, so it made me more favorable to doing it again next weekend. We'll see.

You'd think there's be a World, Tag, and Women's Title match for these, but I guess Tony's waiting for everyone to get cleared and ok'd after their matches. Let's see.

For some reason the PPV poster aesthetic is like that turd asset flip game Only Up

Other than it's in Chicago, there are probably enough reasons as to Ricky Starks winning this Real World's Championship.
If it's a Strap Match, then quite a few people will be living vicariously through Ricky

If I hadn't bought this when Fite put it on sale I probably wouldn't have bothered now. That being said, AEW PPVs haven't disappointed me yet

Not to risk being accused of hyperbole, but fairly confident Omega/Takeshita is going to melt my viewing device of choice.

Top two matches should be title for title FTR vs MJF/Adam Cole, and strap match for the Real World Championship Punk vs Starks.

I'm thinking we might get Better Than You Bay Bay vs. The Kingdom for the ROH titles on this show. Just because there isn't really a number one contender built up for the World Title, unless you have MJF and Cole run it back, which would be insane. And I don't see them as long term Champions, so you can get the belts off them while having Roddy stir up shit to move the angle forward.

I think maybe they’ll hotshot something this Wednesday. Only other thing I can think of is they have Cole/MJF against FTR in some type of gimmick match.

The only guy I can really think of who could turn up Wednesday, set up a title match with MJF and decently raise interest in this ppv is probably Ospreay

The Kingdom have won one single televised AEW match and it was a Rampage match against two local jobbers. The idea of them getting a PPV tag title match against the current head of the company angle is insane to me.

Haven't watched much ROH, but how's their recent record there, because that might justify things. Also, I'm just spitballing, because I can't see MJF the character, even as a face, agreeing to two World Title defenses back to back, and from a real life standpoint, it seems like a bad choice to do MJF vs. Cole two weeks in a row on PPV. At least with The Kingdom match, it makes sense from a storyline standpoint. And they can heat them up quick enough by having them win on both Rampage and Collision this week. So it's not THAT insane lol

I'm guessing Starks vs Hook for hook's FTW title and MJF/Adam cole defending the tag titles

I'm going to guess MJF is going to have to defend against someone, with the rumor being that Chicago Man Punk is going to suspended for the show. That's a pretty big draw to lose here.

So it's not THAT insane lol Tony didn't even trust The Kingdom enough to get a solo tag title match on an ROH PPV he barely cared about! They were built up for it and he instead threw in Aussie Open/Best Friends because reasons. And they haven't even wrestled on an ROH show in over a month. I get that the story is there in theory, but you cannot use the current AEW champ on a big PPV match against the goddamn Kingdom. You just can't do that.

MJF would probably be defending the tag titles alongside Adam Cole against some other team. I guess with Punk likely out, some people are going to sell their tickets and watch Payback instead

Better than you Bay Bay are goaded into a tag match by let's say Bullet Club Gold where all of BtyBB's titles are on the line. With Strong and the Ass Boys on the outside and possibly White and Juice doing an Outcasts in squabbling over who gets the pin could be a nice bit of drama.
