I didn’t love the idea of these personalized TNT titles at first, and it always changing, but now that I’ve seen it in action with Miro, I love it. His belt is awesome.

Fun fact:
Next Sunday, Eddie Kingston will become the first guy to have challenged for all three men’s titles on PPV.
In fact, he is only one of three guys to have challenged for all three men’s titles overall. Eddie Kingston, Jungle Boy and Scorpio Skye.

Considering he got his job not even a year ago and AEW holds four PPVs a year? Says a lot about how much they like him. Deservedly so.

Mark Henry isn’t good as an on screen announcer. I know it’s only been a few weeks, but he’s very awkward. The thing is, he’s tremendous in the pre-main event dueling backstage promos as the “moderator” of sorts. Mark just has nowhere to step in and provide analysis between the excellent chemistry of Excalibur/Taz's Abbott and Costello act and also the brashness of Chris "LOOK AT THAT!" Jericho. Henry's deep voice booms but somehow doesn't carry with the subtly he speaks in next to cohorts.

Uh Nyla is defending Nia..... "Admit ya'll hate thicc girls" Nyla... I like ya... but this really ain't it. Nia has had dozens of reckless bumps and moves under her belt. It's really hard to ignore. I get tired of legitimate criticism and concern being used by some wrestlers to say these dumbass takes. How about stop acting like it's f***ing grade school? Nia basically ended someone's career because she f***ed her up on THREE SEPERATE OCCASSIONS. It's not a joke at this point.

Just saw it confirmed that all talent and workers on the Jericho Cruise will be vaccinated. Makes me feel a lot better about it.

I'd love a skit where Britt introduces her in-canon mentor: Glenn Jacobs, DDS

I feel like it's been forever since I noticed a major production snafu on AEW. It feels like they've tightened things up.

I've been watching videos of Tony Khan's pre-show and post-show speeches, and I notice he does the "stomp his feet as he says someone's name excitedly" thing a lot. It's kinda endearing.

I'm pretty positive that Lucha Bros are beating the Bucks on Sunday. Over the summer AEW ran a bunch of different combinations of Death Triangle and Eddie Kingston vs the Bucks (Pac/Fenix, Eddie/Penta, Pac/Penta) but specifically DIDN'T have Lucha Bros face them. Combine that with the cage gimmick and I'm expecting Lucha Bros to win, even if it's just a short reign to transition the belts to Proud and Powerful.

What if R-Truth joined AEW as Britt Baker's assistant, Ron Fillings?

So my friend that I got into wrestling went on a bit of a rant that she does not find Paul Wight believable at all going into his match with QT. For all his size, she sees an old guy with clear mobility issues and just can't suspend disbelief.
Meanwhile, she thinks Eddie Kingston is one of the most handsome guys on the roster.
I look at these two sentiments, and have to wonder how much the concept of big = believable and the general idea of a "good look" in wrestling (that is most obvious in the WWE hiring guidelines, but also parroted by many fans and talking heads) are products of an insular culture.

Jade Cargill is hotter than the hottest of all summer days. So. FKN. HOT.

Penta's long overdue for an AEW title reign.
