I really enjoyed that. I wasn't sure if they'd go for it but I'm glad it made sense and it got a ton of heat.

Page now HAS TO take World Title from Kenny at All Out PPV after a Stadium Stampede-esque showdown between Bucks/Anderson/Gallows/Kenny and Page/Uno/Stu/Silver/Reynolds. Think Stadium Stampede II is Dark Order vs HFO All Out will likely just be Hangman vs. Omega with Bullite Club backing up Kenny and the Dark Order backing up Page.

But it wasn’t good for me. So where’s the upside who didn’t like it? I've been seeing people want the Bucks to go heel officially and join Omega for weeks now. So sorry if you didn't like it? It's better than them dragging it out. I hate that mentality. “You didn’t like it? Oh well, you’re in the minority. Sorry.”

I hate that mentality. “You didn’t like it? Oh well, you’re in the minority. Sorry.” I'm not saying you can't like it, I just saw it as the logical conclusion to how The Bucks have been acting for months now. It's ok to hate it, I was just saying there were plenty of people who did want this.

That ending was the dumbest thing I’ve seen from AEW in a hot minute.
You’re telling me that the Bucks can hit More Bang For Your Buck on Kenny and get the near fall, but the BTE Trigger was too much for them. That Kenny slapping Matt around like he was Deebo only to get tackled and punched was fine but “we don’t wanna hurt our friend oh no”. They sided against Kenny only to join back up with him later because...?
There were a hundred other ways they could’ve done this, but telling me that they have no problem fighting their friend but draw the line at winning the match, is dumb.

They have no problem wrestling Omega, they had a problem finishing the job. They had a problem truly puttinn him away which would have meant officially throwing their friendship/bond down the toilet. Which is why when Moxley snapped on them, and was ready to basically kill Omega, they finally let their true colors show. All this talk about wanting to be the good guys, and they're still the same scumbag Bucks theyve always been. That's what Callis wanted. Enough with the mellowdrama bullshit, get with the program, and find what made them the killers they were in Japan. For me it was a long time coming and it finally gets The Bucks heel which frankly they're much better at being, so I really don't mind this at all, it finally gets shit moving.

There must really be something in that hand signal because the Elite were kicked out of Bullet Club.
But it’s not that easy, is it? If AJ Styles and Fergal Devitt couldn’t leave even after going to WWE, what made us think the Bucks and Kenny would?
That should be official pro wrestling canon. Joining Bullet Club is like signing your soul away. Even if you recant, it’s still tied to to them.

Is ONE big at all? The only MMA companies I know are like UFC and Bellator (as I said before I don't know mma much lol) They have a few talented fighters like Eddie Alvarez and Demetrius Johnson (who's probably still the best flyweight in the world). They also have a great base of young talent from Asia. And both of those dudes I mentioned lost. At least Moraes looked great in beating DJ (although he looked a good weight class below the other guy).

Again, they hit More Bang For Your Buck. They had the visual pin. Anderson broke it up, Kenny never kicked out of the move. So they could finish him off, and visually they did, which is why “we can’t hit the trigger” doesn’t work for me. I’ll even go back to last year’s Revolution when they were fine fighting each other for a title. There was every possibility that their friendship would end after that match and they still went all out. Coming out with Mickey last week to confront and possibly fight Bullet Club looked like and should have been the end of their friendship, because they willingly allied with their friend’s enemy. They chose to side with Mox, but instead they stretched it out another week for the “gotcha” moment that everyone knew was coming but still felt cheap. If you’re in a match, your goal is to win. They knew they’d have to fight, just like they wanted a victory. The way they went about all this, even Brandon Cutler calling them out on BTE, just feels like a huge time waster. If other people like it, then that’s them, but this felt so insulting and WCW booking at their lowest to me.

If other people like it, then that’s them, but this felt so insulting and WCW booking at their lowest to me. For me it felt like it was becoming more than winning a match. They were telling themselves they could break this bond and this friendship with Omega, it being an even bigger crossroads than at Revolution, but they just couldn't do it. They were forced to use the BTE Trigger to take Omega out, and they just couldn't deliver the killing blow, and then Moxley, in ready to destroy Omega without a care in front of them, set something off where they just couldn't follow through, and joined Omega after months of being told they were basically living a lie and delaying the inevitable. Predictable? Yes. But the right move? I think so. Heel Bucks are better for this story and AEW as a whole. I don't think it was WCW levels of insulting at all I was invested in the story being told as were the live crowd who bought it hard, so I mean, they did something right with some people. Others will shit on it I'm sure, it's whatever, everyone's going to always have different opinions. But I got what I wanted, heel Young Bucks, and the end to them trying to decide what path they were on. I'm good.

I don't know if anyone mentioned this but Best Friends vs Death Triangle was supposed to be the Parking Lot Brawl last year before Covid changed everything. Chuck confirmed this a few months ago on Twitch. Hopefully they get a chance to do a decent ending to their feud and it's not just a one-off.
