Announced that Jericho will be having a live mic this Saturday I assume some kind of confrontation with Hangman to further the All Out build.

Really hoping this show does something to sell me on Jericho / Page. As it stands it just feels like it's destined to be an underwhelming followup to Kenny / Mox that's basically just setting up which of them loses the belt to one of those two.

I wonder what cornball Dark Order segment we’ll get I'm surprised they aren't wrestling a match for the other slot against Best Friends at All Out for the tournament bye.

Looked Shoko up and she's tiny, only 4'10. It’s part of her character, “big kaiju”. She’s short but jacked. Maybe the crispest wrestler in TJPW.

Man, it bums me out to see so many people down on the Dark Order, because I know these guys are good wrestlers. I know they can be more entertaining than they've had the opportunity to be so far. These two have spent over a decade making their names across Canada and the US, and AEW should be their big chance to showcase their abilities on a bigger stage. It sucks that that hasn't been the case so far.
I know that AEW is a bit lacking in heels at the moment. I know that Uno has been doing the "Evil Uno" gimmick for a while now. And I know that they can't use the name due to risk of copyright infringement. But if there was ever a time to decide to just hit the reset button and go back to being the Super Smash Bros., now would have been it. And I know there's always time to do that down the road, but I feel like at this stage in the promotion's short history, it would just be better to do what got you noticed in the first place, and have fun with it.

Yeah. I'm fairly confident that the Dark Order are going to be big once TV rolls around and they are able to showcase their skills, since right now they've hit all of one move in a wrestling ring, but man have they gotten the short end of the stick in presentation up until now.

They and Leva both have suffered on presentation in AEW for the same reason (having to avoid copyright infringement with their more beloved characters).

Im starting to dislike the Leva hiring because she isnt a good wrestler, her spot couldve been given to someone like Shotzi(seems to want the NXT contract because she will appear on the WWE network this weekend), Priscilla, Shazza, Diamante, Scarlett.

That screams dark match.
Couldn't they get an 8 man tag or something instead.

AEW really needs to stop piling the preshow with comedy. I feel like their offerings on that front are very poorly conveying what to expect out of the company compared to what the main shows have actually been like.

Surprised they haven't announced the second women's match yet. Bea Priestly, Britt Baker and Shoko Nakajima are all unaccounted for.

Being blunt, there's not a whole lot on this card that is appealing to me.
I get its a charity show but their leaving out guys like Private Party, Best Friends, Jungle Boy, The Joshi and others.

AEW is probably the only company I know of where people get this worked up about preshows. Hopefully it dies down once their weekly TV show starts up because that's a ridiculous standard to hold them to versus every other promotion.
