If they have Mark Wahlberg show up and somebody beats his ass, I will stay loyal to AEW forever. Just saying Tony. Ball is in your court. But he has to say "I'm a peacock, you gotta let me fly" at some point. Wait, peacock?! "BOYS!" Dalton Castle enters to destroy Marky Mark?

With regards to Okada, SRS said on the Dynamite after show that a couple of weeks ago they had a date in mind for a possible debut when they thought they were signing him but then things got “foggy.” Seemingly implying at the very least he’s still considering WWE.

So, if they follow the Punk format (which they seem to be doing) she opens the show, gives a speech and then they reveal or heavily hint as to her first opponent. Who do they pick? Assuming they keep her away from both titles plus RoH title for a few months I’d think the likely candidates are Brit Baker if recovered from injury, Thunder Rosa, Hikaru Shida or Riho. Everyone else appears to be in a storyline or would be underwhelming. Mercedes and Saraya have history and I believe are friends so would be up for it but the latter would need a bit of building up and her best in ring days are behind her. Serena Deeb would be a great match or Britt Baker turning heel

If they have Okada and Mercedes, I think you bring out Okada first since that will tell fans they're getting both in one night. I’d do the opposite. We know Mercedes is gonna be there, you bring her out first. Okada is a question mark still, so if suddenly he walks out near the end of the show it’ll catch people off guard. With Mercedes being a guarantee, I wouldn’t even hint at the possibility of Okada being there so it can be a total shock

Sidenote, wonder if this is why they seem to have forgotten about Dr Britt. Saving her return for interrupting Mercedes, as apparently Mercedes has been under contract for at least a month.

Rather he be back in WWE, but maybe this is the shot in the arm their women’s division desperately needs.

I just wish Ray Traylor was still alive, so there would be some intrigue about who's debuting here.

This has been my theory as well. Britt and Mercedes are working together on how they want their feud to work. Also, Mercedes will need someone like Britt to help endear herself to the AEW locker room.

Wouldn't shock me if Britt indeed challenges her; Britt's done a few work-shooty style comments over the last x number of months, it's likely an easy road to her popping in to say "Oh, I see how it is; we're rolling the red carpet out for her, but meantime I've been ignored for ages now, guess she's the shiny new toy", etc.

Add me to the list of people who think Britt vs Mercedes is 100% the direction to go if Britt is fit. It's a blockbuster angle without being for the title.

Definitely gonna try to go. Already talked to my dad and he's gonna call my uncle to see if he wants to join us.
Just trying to decide if I take the day of the show and the following day off, or just suck it up and work lol

The show ends with both Mone and Okada in the ring right? AEW’s first wedding! Kip and Penelope say hi...

Of course it'll be big business because I'll be there.

Then for the main event, have an AEW World Title match. Whomever wins says the line "Who is left to challenge me?" Then, coin drop. Then, Okada. That's how the night should go.

I wonder if they make her first opponent/feud obvious before she even debuts like they did with Darby basically calling out Punk without saying his name. Or just wait until the night itself for her to interrupt someone (or someone to interrupt her).
