I also didn't realize until there was no crowd how loudly Jericho yells when he's selling.

Personally I think the start droned for too long.

My wife, who isn't much of a fan, watched this segment with me. When Matt started teleporting, she looked at me and said "This is one of the dumbest things I've ever seen." And she was right on the money. It was complete phoney crap.

And she was right on the money. It was complete phoney crap. This type of comments really bug me. Like it's wrestling. Have you WATCHED wrestling and seen the crap that's been done over the years? Broken Matt is supposed to be an otherworldly being, and they proceeded to use an empty arena to their advantage in making him look otherworldly. It was a ton of fun and very creative and it was honestly something really entertaining at a time the world not only needs something entertaining but needs an escape... so forgive me if I don't share the same sentiment and just wanna enjoy some fun crazy wrestling bullshit. Especially when it's well done and different.

It's just not my taste, I thought it was dumb as hell and didn't think it fit with the type of program that Dynamite has been so far. I'm just one guy giving his opinion, don't get so wound up about it.

I am fine with the goofiness. I grew up with Undertaker having the power to summon lightning. This is nothing compared to that.

I was highly entertained by it. But after the fact it reminds me of something Bruce Villanch once said about Paul Lynde. That he was used best as a seasoning in a larger recipe. Broken Matt is wacky, fun,entertaining & great in an attraction program. In a main event program the broken stuff seems like it could pull the program down instead of lifting it up. As good as it was Jericho trying to get heat by attacking Matt's career in Jeff's shadow & Matt brushing it off doesn't really make me want to see Broken Matt kick Jericho's ass at Blood & Guts.

I DVR’ed the show but tuned in late due to animal crossing.But I tuned in just as this segment started thought it was fantastic.I knew Jericho & Vanguard 1 had legit heat from years back but I didn’t think they’d ever address it on the air.
I appreciated that Jericho played it straight because so often most things are treated like a farce in aew but by being serious Jericho made it even more ridiculous.Tremendous segment.

I'm just one guy giving his opinion, don't get so wound up about it. I used to be in the same boat. When all this Broken-ness started in TNA and people were raving about it, I was like “same lame ass Matt Hardy” and “this is dumb campy shit” but it eventually started winning me over. Probably cause I realized it’s supposed to be f***ing stupid. But I get it if it’s not your taste, I was there too. What I do disagree with, is that it doesn’t fit with Dynamite. I think it fits perfectly. So much of AEW and BTE has an ability to weave between being tongue-in-cheek and grounding the same circumstances in believability. So, I think they’re a perfect pair. To be fair, this shit fit in WWE too, just look at all the Fiend shit, but Vince was never going to get “in” on the joke. Oh man that Jericho/Vanguard promo...where do you even begin with how amazing that was.

Something small that made me mark was Tony ending it by saying "WE'RE OUT OF TIME!" Yes! The show ending with Tony marking out and shouting his classic Nitro sign-off made me laugh in the purest of ways.

If you look at Jericho while Matt is talking, there's a couple parts where you can tell Jericho wants to laugh but manages to keep it together.
I would also like a mod to please replace that "Requested to be ignored" thing under my name with "Hole of Ass".
Edit: Thank you to whichever mod actually did this, lol.

I'm one of the few who never got the appeal of this Matt Hardy character, but he oddly fits in well with AEW. Probably because they do oddball humour pretty well.

How did WWE not give us THIS Matt Hardy?
Honestly. For a company that's supposed to be all about "entertainment", how did they figure nostalgia act Matt Hardy was more entertaining than Broken Matt Hardy?
Give me this wacky shit over worked shoots and boring looking guys any day.
Also Jericho cutting that promo on the drone was one of the best things I seen in years lmao. Is there anything this man can't do?
