The best story of the year just got better. Oh and the Gunn Club are with Stokely now. *cough*

This got one of the pops of the night
It's crazy how over Billy Gunn can be in 2022, but Daddy Ass has reinvigorated his career
Looking forward to these three being a Trio

This angle makes NO sense, but damn if I'm not highly entertained Billy said on Rampage "This is why I liked The Acclaimed better", they did plant a seed

Meanwhile, Griff Garrison is having AEW Dark flashbacks so hard that he's hearing the echoing laughs of Taz calling out his "Ivy League MVP" nickname.

His slides into the ring during run-ins will always be over for me. Dude is just a freak, with a great backside.

It's true, but now he's one of the more over acts in a white hot company It's just impressive longevity tbh

"Scissor Me Daddy Ass" is one of the ultimate found family stories in wrestling

I’m not complaining about the end result because this was the payoff I was hoping for, but how quickly it got to this point was wonky because I assumed after the Dumpster Match with the Acclaimed the Ass Boys would go on an extended losing streak before turning on their father.
However, they’d actually went the other direction, and Billy would berate them and continue to imply they still needed to prove themselves to him after each win.
It was just a little odd, and another instance where Tony either runs a story too short or too long, and this obviously fell in the former.

No, it was just Tony changing his mind, Jack Evans said TK tends to do a lot of last min changes, and this one was clearly no exception.

Well, they did go to the trouble of filming Stokely giving the Ass Boys his card, so it's not quite last minute. Maybe a little rushed, but we already knew this was going to eventually come to pass. The thing that didn't really make sense was The Acclaimed saving Daddy Ass so soon after he just betrayed them, but when you know it's something people want to see, why not?

There's just something wholesome about Bowens telling Gunn "SCISSOR ME, DADDY ASS!!!"

My mother walked in during this segment just in time for the Acclaimed to yell "SCISSOR ME DADDY ASS"
I'm thankful she either didn't hear it well enough to understand or doesn't know what that means...

Anthony Bowens looking at Billy Gunn all heartbroken like he was his own dad is one of those weird wrestling things that you can't even really explain to someone, but if you stick with wrestling for a little while it all makes sense and is beautiful.
