Until either the Bucks and Omega or Cole & co lose a match, this tournament is pointless. Well, Cole & Co aren't going to lose because they're not even in the tournament nor cleared to compete. Thank Zod that I had no idea, I needed some good news today (injuries aside).

If Dark Order or Best Friends win it, fine. If Omega and The Bucks win, then like The Owen it's nothing more than an Ego Trip Wouldn't go that far given like everyone loves Omega and The Bucks, and there's probably plenty of people who are pulling for them to win. Not to say they are but like putting your belts on three of the best guys you have isn't an "ego trip". /raises hand/ I'd love to see the Elite win the tournament. I don't think the trios belts need to be held for long by any team though, so I'd hope to see the Best Friends, DO, and House of Black all as champs before the end of the year.

I'm fine with the Elite winning it but I do think if you're talking most deserving gotta throw the Best Friends a bone

My favorites to win are House of Black. I think they have been very solid and I'm hoping they get as much airtime as some other not as worthy stables get.

I think HOB has too many other things going on right now between the Miro stuff and their ongoing feud with Darby and Sting. I see someone getting involved and costing them their match either with DO or Best Friends. Of course I say this as someone who desperately wants Best Friends to win this whole thing.

If Best Friends win the whole thing I may have to just stop watching AEW. 😂 (Just kidding) I like Orange but he has lost a lot of steam ever since that Jericho feud.

I mean, he had a match for the world title against Kenny and PAC last year that was incredible. He had a bunch of momentum coming back from injury this year. He and Best Friends have been workhorses for this company, especially through the pandemic. They just can’t ever seem to win “the big one” and what better way to get their momentum back than to win this tournament. They’re my guys and the reason I watch AEW so I definitely have a bias, but I truly believe they deserve it the most out of any other team.

Think the final will be Omega/Bucks v Best Friends
I want Omega/Bucks v House of Black but I see Miro costing them and we get Miro/Sting/Darby v HOB at All Out.

I’m thinking the finals will be Elite vs Dark Order with hangman as one of the participants.

Just getting caught up on Rampage from Friday, and I officially want House of Black to win the Trios belts and then drop them to Miro.
Not Miro and two partners.
Just to Miro.

They’re definitely going to replace 10 with Hangman in the next match. Which means DO is going to make it to the finals.
Being a Best Friends fan is the worst. It’s just watching OC get big opportunities and losing every time.

It’s just watching OC get big opportunities and losing every time. At the same time, you could say the same about being a Dark Order fan... it's a match between two teams starving for that big break At least Best Friends have had some really epic matches and definitive feud enders, Parking Lot Brawl, Arcade Anarchy, Beating Jericho I think Dark Order need it more

Best Friends have been a trio since the start, consistently over, all of them have had title opportunities and never won. They were workhorses for this company during pandemic. They deserve this so much. Watching them lose next week is going to suck. They should at least make it to the finals and be on the ppv.

Best Friends or Dark Order, either way, I'm okay with the result. Feel like whoever makes it to the finals is going over Young Bucks/Omega, just since at this point, the Young Bucks owe it to either team for being good soldiers and putting them over constantly in feuds.

And the people who never win the big one didn't win the big one! ... Seems to be a common trend around here.

AEW has become extremely blatant about who they care about and who they just see as innate losers, and it's getting extremely depressing to watch. I predict Page will be on the next trios champion team, but it'll be with other Elite-adjacent people, y'know, people who actually matter.

Page, Silver, and Reynolds were literally all presented as even with The Elite. Silver almost beat Omega twice. He only lost because Hangman buckshotted him by accident Like I know the trend tonight in how things have gone, but this was one of the best matches of the entire year, Silver and Reynolds looked legitimized more than they ever have been in their tenure, the talking point shouldn't be "They're losers and they'll be replaced on the team" like... this match ruled, Silver and Reynolds ruled in it, we should be talking about that, of all things.

But we're not, because they're obviously going back to being jobbers. This never had anything to do with the Dark Order, it was about the Elite and Page. Unless you seriously think they'd get pushed to the finals with 10 as their partner? It's not good that they killed it; it's depressing. Because their reward for it will be occasionally appearing on Elevation and that's it. AEW has lost my trust about stuff like this, and I am definitely not alone.

Just "Well they're losers, shut the door! Open and shut case!". Like the storyline beat is that Page cost THEM the match, not the other way around. Why is the logical booking step "Well f*** Silver and Reynoilds, it's OBVIOUS what's going to happen"? Like no it isn't, some people thought Dark Order would get knocked out round one. They just beat HOB and Best Friends, Silver and Reynolds got the pins in those matches, not Hangman If they've lost your trust fine? But like don't you see the issue of seeing an amazing match where two dudes looked f***ing amazing and the followup in the Trios thread is "RIP to those jobber losers because they lost" after what was a damn near 5 star match? Despite how they lost? And Hangman's just going to immediately abandon them when the only reason they lost is BECAUSE of Hangman? I'm sorry I'm just tired of this being how it is lately, and I am definitely not alone in that sentiment either.
