In hindsight they're REALLY lucky they had Kenny build the ring in canon because that is a really good out for the f***up. True, but if we are going by kayfabe how f**** is the video game going to be if Kenny is in charge of that too, lol?

They hyped someone up for less than a week, with statements that were true, and some people are disappointed because the possibilities drove people to get ridiculously large expectations. Not sure what AEW did wrong there. That ending? Sucked. Hyping signing Christian? Great move, I don't understand how anyone had a problem with that at all. I hate the Big Show signing and they just released it. If you’ve watched WandaVision...and see a lot of the online discourse after the finale went up on Friday....then you know what happens when people convince themselves that internet THEORIES are, in fact pre-determined reality/inevitable outcomes. Both that and this are reasons 1346 & 1347 why I both love and hate the internet I've never watched any of Marvel's stuff, but I know that people have a tendency to let their mind go way over the top and then be disappointed by a good, not great, outcome. But why not be self-aware enough to react as "I was underwhelmed" and not "They had no business hyping that." I ignored all the noise and I was pretty happy about the reveal. I know buzz is fun to be involved in, but after a certain point people are just setting themselves up for something that has a very tiny chance of making them feel satisfied.

Honestly Khan coming out in good spirits and not even paying attention to the fans who want him to be pissed and act like this is the beginning of the death of AEW is the best result from this They can make a storyline out of it, they can make fun of themselves and they won't be conceded about it. BTE will be a blast this week AEW are always really good at taking the piss out of themselves. It just makes people who hate the company more angry that they can't annoy anyone.😂 Shit happens. On to Dynamite on Wednesday.

I mean, in kayfabe, the game’s being done by developers who can be left to their own devices partially managed by the God of the AKI engine. The match was being built by Kenny and two random goons. Not exactly “pioneers of the industrial Revolution”.

That is a good question...because in canon when Kenny does something it turns out shit like not just the explosion, there's also that beach show that he put together badly...hmmm....is Kenny Omega sucking at everything outside of wrestling a character trait? On Dynamite Schiavone's like "The new AEW game coming out...this one's gonna SUCK because it's in the clumsy, fumbling hands of Kenny Omega..."

Shitty explosion aside, Eddie Kingston was the only person in the back who tried to save Moxley?

I know sometimes you just don't have a choice but to lean into it, but I'm not a big fan of self-referential, self-deprecating humor especially when it's a guy holding your World title. I'd rather they not pivot to "LOL Kenny Omega is a dummy" out of this, they've done a little too much of that already in the past.

Reveal Fred Ottman as lead designer for the match. “Kenny, we’re not using Unreal” “But look at the background shading! We should do a fighting game with this!” “Just...just let him carry on. We’ll show him footage from time to time” And yeah, Ottman would probably be up for that. His saga on the Edge and Christian show was hilarious.

The more I think about it, the more I'm realizing how brilliant booking wise Eddie's arrival wsa. he'd been missing a bit from doing much outside of Dark the last few weeks, Moxley still sayshe was gonna beat sense into him until Eddie realizes they're still friends, then of all the people to rush in to try and save him, it's his former friend like DAAAANG IT'S MMM GOOD

So is this an actual face turn for Eddie Kingston or did he come out to save Mox for old times' sake and go back to being a rat bastard on Wednesday?

I expect him to work a program as a face with Kenny now as a bridge to the next major PPV feud (with Hangman?). Should be some really good matches, hopefully.

On the plus side, it looks like we are finally heading toward Baker vs Shida.

Butcher and Blade have their own fish to fry with Bear Country so it really works out.

We do have some fun things to look forward to:
- Face Eddie feuding with Kenny - Bucks/Pac & Fenix - Darby and Team Taz moving on to other things - Christian and Ethan Page getting involved with feuds - Shida is back and Maki Itoh is here! Plus Swole is on the way back. The whole division feels deeper than ever. - Getting some major angle with the Inner Circle.
Despite the ending, plenty on the horizon to look forward to.
