I guess they didn’t want Copeland’s first Dynamite to end with a heel heat beatdown segment since last night we had BC Gold beating up MJF and the Callis Family beating up Kenny and Jericho. Also, honestly? It’s way more effective doing it this way. Like, beatdowns can come from a place of anger and lashing out and even with Christian’s character, it could be interpreted as him thinking “How dare you ask me that after all this time?” or “You think you’re so high and mighty using our history for your own means?”, stuff like that. I don’t think you can misinterpret anything from the words “Go F*** Yourself”. Yeah, it was Norm Macdonald-esqe for how minimalist, impactful and perfect it was.

My work colleague just watched it and told me the same thing. It honestly is super weird especially since people either pay for it individually or pay for a subscription. I watched it live on Fite and it was all there. I just checked the recorded version and it cuts just as Christian takes the mic. Presumably, the archiving of the shows is an automated process and maybe it just isn't set up for/expecting such a long overrun? The show went for an extra 8 to 10 minutes so I can see why that might cause problems on an automated system that's used to the show only lasting two hours (give or take a couple of minutes) it's weird because there have been overruns before and it hadn't cut off, it's literally only this show I missed the end of.

This was an extra long overrun though. They're usually only a couple of minutes but this one was nearer 10. My recording cut out at two hours and five minutes so it had part of the overrun but not the whole thing. I think the automated archiving system was just caught out by the length of the overrun.

When Tony Khan built up Christian as one of the best of all time prior to his debut, people said it was overhyped.
Christian has delivered on that description.

I don’t think you can misinterpret anything from the words “Go F*** Yourself”. I have a feeling this storyline is going to go in a direction of Christian being irritated that, after years of being second fiddle (or, in wrestling terms "the Jannetty") in WWE he found his footing outside of WWE and became a bona fide star. And now, past his prime and nearing the end of his career, Edge is encroaching on "his" territory and trying to steal "his" spotlight. It's almost justified for Christian to tell him to go f*** himself, since he essentially asked him to stop everything he's been doing for nearly 3 years on a dime and go back to being the "lesser" part of a tag team, but Christian was a complete sociopath dick about it. I think that's part of what's made him such a great heel in this run. This storyline is going to be really good. It should be that because it feels true

I genuinely think they should long the Edge vs Christian singles match off for quite a long time (touch wood no serious injuries). I'd personally aim for it at All In Wembley. I really don't think it should be the first proper program Copeland has. Not like there isn't plenty of other guys he could work with in short term
You could tell a great Vader/Luke type story where Edge is disappointed in his best friend but refuses to fight him and goes his own path. Christian continues his descent into madness and eventually his power and stable disintegrates. The 2 eventually cross paths again, Edge tries to help and support him as his last true friend but it doesn't quite work. Leads to a match eventually and then just run back the Cody/Dustin match and finish. Then do the tag run. Easy

AEW's uploaded the uncensored version on Youtube and holy heck it's so much more effective without the censorship.
