Pro Wrestling and rigging pyro It always finds a way to go wrong, that's basically the jist of it Something definitely went wrong here and I'm sure we'll find out more about it as the week goes on Just have Khan explain that he had the pyro cut deliberately to protect both guys. See my post. Kenny built this thing and it's his failure that left Moxley standing

It's hard to spin it that way though because Eddie still sold it like he died after it happened.

It’s genuinely one of the worst finishes in recent memory. I think people - myself included - will talk about it tonight/this week and move on, but it was bad. I give them all the credit in the world when things go right but that was genuinely shit and should be recognized as such.

As I said AEW would be smart to laugh at themselves, take the jokes on the chin and keep it moving
That shit was hilarious and will be remembered for that craziness but that's fine

This would be an easy save, but for Eddie selling the whole thing like death. That was really bad, there's no way around it. It'll be interesting to see how they bounce back from this.

AEW already has an out. It's not their fault Kenny built it and hyped it. I buy that Kenny and Callis had the ring built up to not go nuclear in the event that Kenny lost and was left vulnerable for the mass explosion.

At least AEW finally earned their first Gooker nomination. That’s worth something.

Sometimes you're the hammer. Sometimes you're the nail. Sometimes you're the wood. And sometimes you're the busted thumb.
It's a busted thumb night for AEW, but I got a laugh out of it. It'll be unique to see how they spin it (seems set to dunk on Omega's "engineering" and I'm sure JR will "admit" he shut his eyes because he didn't want to see it happen)

I mean they were talking about the heat from the explosion so they could possibly sell it as like a mild heat stroke or something, but even that would be a bit of a stretch given that Moxley suffered no ill effects from the explosion.

If they work this into Omega deliberately making the match not as explodey as promised because he’s actually a giant wuss, then I could dig that.

If I'm being honest? I expected the "explosion" aspect to be antiquated and cheesy, especially compared to the stuff GCW and the like are doing. I wanted tension. I wanted good storytelling. I wanted god-tier psychology. And you know what? I got that in spades. I'm a happy, happy woman tonight.
