Also, I love that guys like Ishii and Suzuki will just randomly show up in AEW whenever they're free. Keep the likes of Okada and Tanahashi for big shows, but let Ishii and Suzuki just smack people around whenever they want to. To be fair, who's gonna tell them no?

Just for fun predictions:
INTERIM AEW WOMEN'S CHAMPIONSHIP Toni Storm vs. Dr. Britt Baker DMD vs. Jamie Hayter vs. Hikaru Shida
There’s a part of me that thinks Hayter has a shot so we don’t go from one face to another but ima go with Toni. God be with Tony if he puts the belt back on Britt.
AEW TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP Swerve In Our Glory vs. The Acclaimed
Swerve in our Glory. Absolutely love the acclaimed but doesn’t feel right, timing wise.
AEW TBS CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH Jade Cargill vs. Athena
Jade. Should be Athena but..the momentum isn’t there.
AEW TRIOS CHAMPIONSHIP TOURNAMENT FINAL The Elite/United Empire vs. Best Friends/Dark Order
Dark Order. Would kind of make up for them being Ass the last few months.
CASINO LADDER MATCH PARTICIPANTS TO BE ANNOUNCED Brian Cage lets go baybee.
Chris Jericho vs. Bryan Danielson
This is actually tough. But I feel there’s more of a path to go if Bryan Danielson takes it.
Christian Cage vs. Jungle Boy
Jungle Boy. I kind of want CC to win though. This rivalry feels like it’s lost steam.
Jay Lethal and The Motor City Machine Guns vs. Warlow and FTR
Wardlow & FTR.
Ricky Starks vs. Powerhouse Hobbs
Starks is going to steal it. But they’ve gotta do something to keep Hobbs from losing ground.
Main Event Punk retains his title. Somehow.

I love that Suzuki just travels the world fighting wherever and whoever he wants. Aew, Gcw, ddt, chocopro and anything in-between, it's all the same to him. Hope more wrestlers do the same in their later years.

4 days to go to All Out No main-event announced I don't know if it is the injury bug scaring TK or what, but I miss the long ME builds towards a PPV.

4 days to go to All Out No main-event announced Not ideal, but most people purchase PPVs day of or the days leading up to the PPV so it’s not a big deal. And if it’s Punk-Moxley, it’s already been built up the last few weeks. If it’s someone other than Punk, then that would be an issue.

Tony Khan said this today: "By Sunday at All Out and in general, it's going to be strongest and best the roster has ever been. People will have to watch All Out to see what I mean by that."

And if it’s Punk-Moxley, it’s already been built up the last few weeks. If it’s someone other than Punk, then that would be an issue. It probably won't affect the buyrate but I think not having a big main event announced has hurt ticket sales. Even after converting the Dynamite/Rampage combo packages into singles for All Out they're still at less than 8,500 sold with days to go when All Out 2019 and 2021 had sold over 10,000 and practically sold out weeks ahead of time. There may be Punk fans not quite sure if this injury thing is legit and questioning whether he's even going to be on the card. Tony Khan said this today: "By Sunday at All Out and in general, it's going to be strongest and best the roster has ever been. People will have to watch All Out to see what I mean by that." Tell us MJF is returning without telling us MJF is returning. Makes sense because it's been months. Logically his return would either be tonight if he's Moxley's PPV opponent (unlikely), at All Out or the post-All Out Dynamite.

I presume the casino ladder match will have a joker?
That'd be a fun way for MJF to come back and immediately jump back to the top of the card.

4 days to go to All Out No main-event announced I don't know if it is the injury bug scaring TK or what, but I miss the long ME builds towards a PPV. That was one of my problems with the booking of Double or Nothing. I noticed that there was a fair, if good amount of matches announced, but then on the go-home episode of Rampage, a couple of matches just had to be added. Some of the could have easily been on the Buy-in, or not on the show at all. It was too long of a card. I'm likely going to skip this show. It might still be good, but with the way the booking for the show has been, I'm not in the least bit enthusiastic. I was even considering buying tickets to watch it in theaters, but I don't think I am doing that this time.

Sasha would be an insane surprise given how WWE's turned it around in terms of talent relations, mainly Vince and Johnny leaving, but she has technically not re-signed or re-debuted so... it's always possible A return like MJF could matter, like others have said we have a Casino Ladder Match which will have a Joker, who could be a return or a big debut And always worth noting... Windham is still out there.

This'll be good, and you got some easy storylines built in so the match isn't just a total spotfest. Feels like it's setting up for the Joker to win, whoever it is.
