Really good show. Like most everyone else I have a bit of Britt PTSD, but I’m willing to wait and see where she goes from here before being annoyed that an arrogant heel cut an arrogant promo.
The main event was really fun but had some glaring timing issues (you could even hear the ref scream “90 seconds” right before the obviously rushed ending), but other than that I enjoyed all the in ring stuff thoroughly. Was shockingly impressed got Kamela, even.
9.

An 8/10. My two negatives were: 1. That Britt promo was BAD. It’s like she’s incapable of not crapping on everyone constantly. And when TK refuses to book the women better, it makes things even worse. Also she got more TV time in one night than Rosa has gotten since becoming champ. And for some reason, TK feels she needs another interview segment on Friday as well. One night back and I’m already sick of Britt. 2. While I feel like heel Sammy has new life, I have not been fond of how they’ve used Tay so far. She should be doing more than just being Sammy’s arm candy (speaking of Britt, AEW acknowledges her and Cole being a thing and interacting, but they still do their own stuff as well). Give her more to than just hang around Sammy. I agree with this.

Give her more to than just hang around Sammy. Same score and I fully agree with the reasoning. Britt especially, I get that it was her hometown and they had football players with her for the added celeb factor, but it's just retreading the stuff that made people sick of her in the first place.

A takeaway I had is that even as a heel Sammy cannot cut a promo. Dude sounded incredibly wooden.

Went with an 8/10. Loved the opener with Punk/Rhodes and the main event was fun. Britt, Sammy, ATT kind of dragged down the second half.

I loved the punk/dustin match. Great old school match. Seems like every week punk and ftr are competing for bret hart's attention with these classic style matches.
BCC match was good, even though you knew the outcome, it was entertaining and I didn't feel like the losers looked like bitches in defeat.
Love Regal on commentary, it's nice to have him there with no need for a manager to interfere in any of their matches.
Hook and Danhausen are gonna be fun.
Didn't like Sammy's spot.
Brit seemed winded after that match and struggled with the promo.
Wardlow story is a simple one, they've done a good job bringing him along. Butcher had a good showing.
Sting... I'll always pop for the sting mask spot. Pretty good dive too.
Darby vs Andrade was great, though has Andrade won any feuds in AEW?
Overall, I gave it an 8.
