Also, did Frankie sign up for those anger management classes? “MOTHER F***ER, I DON’T NEED ANGER MANAGEMENT CLASSES!” *chases LastCall across the forum*

But honestly the whole ending with the Dark Order is gold Silver and Stu hate each other less. Fives keep trying to rip off Reynolds. 10 is still into hardcore drugs. But he is enough of a teddy bear to hug Alex...and his butt. Plus the part with hangman,hangman going from sad and desperate to being able to yell his own frustation of himself,you can see him going from sad drunk to straight up angry with himself. Evil Uno is the father figure we all need in our lives. He got pith in his eye! Dark Order face turn is going to be huge.

I hope everyone enjoyed Stu’s last BTE appearance.

I actually wouldn't mind Page joining the Dark Order on the main show. Everything just falls into place so well.
Also, Cutler looks good in his steam punk outfit.

Pretty sure thats the plan,I saw an reddit user fantasy booker say he would have Hangman Join the Dark order, be a winner,have Brodie abuse him when he starts outshining him and realise this is just another abusive relation.

I have never wanted to give a pro-wrestler a hug as much as I want to hug Hangman.
And Kingston's promo... He could be (one of) the top babyfaces in the business.

I know Marko Stunt's an Adult, but it's still kinda unsettling seeing him in a little hot tub with 2 other guys who actually LOOK like adults.
The last 10 minutes or so going from Eddie crying, to John Silvers Crying and ending with that bit with Page at the end was an emotional ROLLER COASTER
and to think, Page was pretty reviled when he was making hist first run for the title.

Page's face when he started the chant made me genuinely feel bad for him. Hope they use this on Dynamite.
Also, this is gonna be one hell of a redemption story for him when he eventually wins that World Title.

I say this without Hyperbole, face Eddie Kingston winning the AEW World title as a face would be up there with the likes of Mankind, Eddie Guerrero, and Daniel Bryan winning their world titles. It's one of those moments in wrestling and Eddie will absolutely take you over every jagged rock on the road it takes to get to that promiseland I loved Dark Order's stuff in this too. I really do wonder if Hangman joins Dark Order because he feels like he has nowhere else to go. Omega and The Bucks are together again while he's once again the outlier. The ending definitely hinted that Uno is gonna try and recruit him. They tried before but missed their window... the window has opened again, let's see where it goes Also congrats to Trent even though he didn't want to win I guess we'll see how he defends the BTE Championship, it's a good lookin belt. Unsung moment of this was even Anna Jay seemingly being impressed with Marko Stunt

Man, Adam Page chanting "f*** Hangman" broke me. It's so nuts that at least twice this year a youtube show has had me on the verge of tears

Possible unpopular opinion: Miro was probably the weakest character I've ever seen of any person on BTE, and that includes untrained people like Sue. Maybe it's just due to how long he was with the WWE and how little exposure he got to non-scripted segments, but he came off as extremely wooden and out of his element during that whole thing. Leva, Penelope, and Kip all had the moment down to make it work, but Miro just standing there staring at the ground with his hands in his pockets was just...I dunno how to put it into words really, it was just really really bad.

The segment wasn't even about him... and he was supposed to be acting ashamed that Kip got embarrassed that hard. I was watching the same segment and noted his expression falling, the side eyed amazement, and then the baffling sort of laughter at Kip trying to explain it wasn't his fault before walking away. At this point I think Miro criticism is becoming too hyperbolic. Like any time he shows up it feels like he's being so overanalyzed it's impossible to enjoy him period.

So it seems that the Dark Order is getting along and acting more united in the absence of Mr. Brodie.
Wonder if that will be addressed.

Them saying that their celebration champagne was non alcoholic was a nice touch in excluding Page.

Hangman Page and Eddie Kingston had me all in my feelings. I didn't even laugh a lot, but they made me feel so much this episode.

I have no problem enjoying his work for what it is, it's just this weird issue he has keeping up with unscripted segments that is throwing me off. I hope he finds traction in whatever this gimmick is supposed to be (to echo sentiments from earlier, I was expecting a type of Mr. Perfect persona with the nickname), but aside from his in-ring work, for me he has a lot of catching up to do to live up to the hype he had coming hot out of the WWE.

Side Note: They must have filmed the Dark Order segments one room over from AEW's Post-Full Gear media scrum, because you could vividly hear the "F*** HANGMAN!!" chant during Serena Deeb's interview and she was corpsing throughout and "Apologizing for the noise there's a lot going on"

Them saying that their celebration champagne was non alcoholic was a nice touch in excluding Page. That's part of it, and also probably acknowledging that since Omega and the Bucks do not drink. I don't think Cutler does, either.

I just had a wild booking idea based off of this ending and the crowd reaction during the Silver vs OC match.
Hangman joins the Dark Order but instead of turning heel, because he's so naturally likable and because they've known nothing but abuse until now, he becomes their leader and turns TDO around to save us from the reign of terror of the Elite+Nightmare Family heel supergroup.
