Idk how solid of a relationship NWA has with the Door right now. It sounded like Khan and Corgan were a bit at odds after that all woman show. But who knows. That and apparently they "big leagued" Leyla when she challenged Camille I didn’t hear about that, what exactly happened?

I liked FTR as heels, but they've really found their groove as faces. They're just so damn likeable.

I didn't expect to enjoy them as faces as much as I do.

I am really happy for them, even if part of me wouldn't have minded Cobb and O-Khan coming out on top. I knew they wouldn't, of course, but still.

I've always had a soft spot for the guy as far back as when he was randomly teaming with Miro in NXT. Dude's just so genuine, he praises a lot of stuff Tony's done for him but is also stressing that "I don't want this to come off like I'm a schill", and even Tony said "These are the most compliments you've ever given me I promise" I know people have their qualms about Tony, but man the way these guys talk to each other, I know the warning to the in general world is "Don't be friends with your boss"... but man Tony makes it seem really easy when you see how he talks to people. You can fake a lot of shit, but so many of his interactions with wrestlers feel so genuine, and the way Dax talked about having every job and boss in the world, Septic work, Taco Bell, not even in just wrestling, and Khan was the one who treated him and Cash the most like "Actual human beings", that's the shit I really listen to, and take to heart.

Loving babyface FTR
Their run over last few months has made me really go back to why I thought they were big time in the first place as I thought they were in the overrated camp of name being bigger than their actual delivery

They gotta do Bucks/FTR again at All Out. They’re the top team in the company and maybe the world. Please no. Aew has better teams on their roster than the bucks that could give ftr a great match.

I mean, the Bucks have the tag titles and it only makes sense to have FTR go for those belts when they have three other sets of them and recently beat the Bucks. It'd be weird to just randomly put them against Team Taz or something.

I keep reading this as Anthony Starr for FTR. I think Homelander would be more of a Bucks guy.

So “major” titles left for them to win
NWA tag titles Impact tag titles Doesn’t really count but if they merge the SD and Raw tag titles and just call it WWE tag titles and get a new set of tag titles and just call them the WWE tag titles
Am I missing any?

FTR as faces shouldn't work as well as it does but also it makes only sense to me that they can kill it as faces, because these dudes know their stuff way too well. Study tape of people heeling on the Rock & Roll Express, and you're studying tape on a Rock & Roll Express match, y'know? I hope they take the titles off the bucks now so the can hold all that gold because they deserve that photo shoot decked out with everything.

I’m not 100 percent behind the injury angle of the match. I think you could have worked a better sprint with all three teams but, it worked in getting FTR over.

It helps that they got some direct knowledge from Tully Blanchard, half of one the best teams of the 80s.

It'd be weird to just randomly put them against Team Taz or something. Right, they're not going to transition the belts to another team just for FTR to beat that team. In kayfabe, it seems like the Bucks are the gold standard for AEW, so it only makes sense that in a rubber match for the tag belts that FTR beats the Bucks.

This is probably the best run they’ve ever been on. Didn’t expect them to work out as good guys as well as they’ve done so.

ROH announced Death Before Dishonor for July.
No way Cobb and O-Khan were winning the ROH Belts with them in The G1

I'm not convinced that Dax didn't legit do something to himself. Media Scrum the dude had a giant ice pack taped to his shoulder even It worked regardless though yes
