Can’t say I dig Hardy winning. Dude has probably got about 3 or 4 matches left in him (if he’s lucky) so they are getting these matches done quick (it’s going to lead to Hardyz vs Bucks)

Decent match, but I don't agree with Jeff winning. No way Jeff Hardy's winning the tournament.

They sold it for being the first meeting between these two. There’s also rematch possibilities now. I’ll be honest, I REALLY don’t want to see another match between these two. I mean they did all their spots great... but I get that it'd be even crazier lol

This match is weird. The build was weird. The scale of what's going on is weird. I usually love AEW going balls out just because but this feels like the most "this match is things happening because they decided they should have things happen" match I've seen on actual television. I get the vibe that they're assuming this will be the only Darby Allin vs. Jeff Hardy match ever, they have no intent on running it back ever, and they're putting everything into this match that one could possibly want or expect out of a Darby Allin vs. Jeff Hardy match. Which doesn't necessarily add up to a good match or the right match for the evening. This does kind of make the most sense in terms of Jeff being Jeff and who knows how long he'll be able to still be active, and Darby being Darby and who knows how long he'll be able to still be active. It definitely seemed like it was structured more in an "okay you two, get it out of your systems" sort of way than trying to built anything past that.

Also, let me just say that I for one am SHOCKED that Jeff Hardy vs. Darby Allin was a self-indulgent, career-shortening spot-fest. SHOCKED, I tell ya!!

I didn't think the winner of this match was going to win the whole thing one way or the other, so I'm cool with Jeff winning.

Decent match, but I don't agree with Jeff winning. No way Jeff Hardy's winning the tournament. No, but someone pointed out he did actually have a match with Owen once.

I won't complain if they do another one, but I'd be good with that being the only Darby vs. Jeff match. They delivered.

It’s interesting that Jeff Hardy has had more “career shortening” matches than literally anyone else in wrestling, but he’s out here, 45 years old, and still doing it. Was he the next “Action” Mike Jackson, absent all the insane matches?

For all the career shortening spots etc, Jeff's been around a long time. All his spots were actually well done tonight imo, the chair spot looked iffy but just about everything for how nuts it was, was relatively safe. Darby did what he needed to do, they both did what they needed to do, and Jeff sold his ass off Him working a match with Cole will be fantastic imo

Unless Martha Hart expresses that she took issue with this match, how about we don't put words in her mouth?
