Jericho Vs Omega II

[Fade]

In the spirit of spreading the love..

Looks like the rematch is set.

Hate it? Love it?

I think it’s probably the biggest singles match they could make straight off the bat, but yeah, what say y’all.

I'm ok with it, they had a great first match, if it's anything like that it'll be a great type of hardcore brawl to show wrestling fans it's a true alternative.

[Chiral]

Probably the two biggest names they have so smart to do this at their first big PPV even if it is a rematch.

Pac is occupied, the Lucha Bros. are going against The Bucks, there's not really another big name for him to face right now. It'll probably be a banger, and because they only faced each other in Japan, the prospect of seeing it live will definitely draw people in.

I'm fine with it. Not dying for it but they're two of the three biggest names AEW has at the moment (and Cody's injured anyway) so it's logical to use to draw attention to start off with while building buzz for the rest of the card, plus the last match was great, so no complaints.

[Yamashita Enforcement Division]

I would have prefered Golden Lovers vs. Best Friends or Bucks (with the Lucha Bros facing the best friends in that case), but given the way talent is shaking out in terms of the rest of the card, Jericho/Omega II is kind of the natural main event.

[Error]

Given at All In they brawled, getting a match on what will probably end up AEW's second show makes sense.

[Captain Stud Muffin (BLM)]

Might as well

Makes sense to do so and they have unfinished business

I was kinda hoping it was going to be Cody Vs Jericho, as we haven't seen that in a while (they had to have wrestled each other in WWE), but I've got no problem with Omega/Jericho II, especially if they play off of Jericho being an ass and thinking he was going to be the big fish in the company, only to have Omega come in and steal his spotlight. It'll be interesting to see who goes over, if Jericho wins, it's almost certain that we'll get Omega/Jericho III as a blowoff, possibly in a steel cage.

Looking it up they seem to have only had two singles matches, both in 2013 - one on SmackDown and one on Main Event, both won by Jericho.

I think part of what helps sell this rematch is that it is going to be Jericho's first match in North America that is not for WWE in almost 20 years.

They do have 3 months to build it. So I'll let it play out.

Omega and Jericho are two very creative people. I'm sure I will care more as time goes on.

[Zone Was Wrong]

I'm cool with it. They had a killer match before and I have faith they'll come up with something new for this match.

Wonder how soon Cody rushes himself back after surgery because he's no doubt one of the draws of the promotion and he has matchups out there that people will be intrigued in

I'm more intrigued in what angles Cody can provide but the matches I couldn't really care about

[Mozenrath]

I'm cool with it. Jericho's been raising eyebrows, not always for the right reasons, but he's continually brought it in the ring.

The feud makes sense. Plays off of their All In encounter, they have some NJPW history plus that cruise, and Jericho's character would of course be furious to be upstaged. He was the big name for the first press conference, and Kenny goes and steals his thunder for the second one. It's only natural he'd want to try to establish supremacy.
