I mean for the most part I had a great time but then I was spending the show memeing about Drew McIntyre being a goober and contemplating what to do with my $50.

I'd give it an 8
Sort of reverse Castle where All Out was weird as hell but they stuck the landing

9. Certainly not the best BUT the main event was outstanding and MJF means things are ramping up. AEW feels back to full strength with Kenny and MJF being back.

8 or 9, going to roll a dice.
9 wins, I guess. The ending was what I wanted it to be, there was a some serious gold in there, even if there was also some really dubious calls for parts of it, too.

8.
Was a 7 for a while because of booking decisions but the main event was great.

8, because unlike Castle, they stuck the ending.
All of the tag matches and Punk/Mox more or less carried the whole show but god damned were those really fun matches.

A 6/10:
This was an, odd show:
A lot of great matches.
Some potentially interesting storylines.
But more than any other PPV to date, this felt like TK begging fans to “please trust me.” Because he made some bizarre booking choices here.
Also the show was way too heel dominated imo.
But it did end on a high note.
So yeah I am conflicted on this one.
Definitely the weakest show of the weekend.

I think it had 4 great matches (Eddie/Ishii, trios tag titles, tag titles, Punk/Mox), some pretty good stuff (Christian/Jungle Boy, the women's title matches) but Jericho/Danielson was such a letdown and they repeatedly missed striking while the iron was hot so I'd probably give it a 6. Also they didn't end nearly enough angles tonight.

I gave it an 8.
Good pre-show, two five-star matches, an excellent main event, Toni Storm as interim women's champ, problems in the Baker/Hayter camp, Sting being Sting, and a mask reveal/return that was expertly done.
I could have done without Jungle Boy vs. Christian being on the card if that was the plan and Jade vs. Athena was disappointing, but overall I enjoyed it.

Honestly, i'm not sure what to rate it.
It had some of the greatest AEW stuff i've ever seen and by far some of the worst. The booking all around save a couple matches went beyond bad, it seemed spiteful just to get extra heat on top of well established mega heat.
I will say this, its the only AEW PPV where I may have regretted paying $50 for.

The Jericho/Danielson match was great. But two of the matches I was looking forward to the most went under 5 minutes/barely started, the tag title match stretched out for what seemed like forever and just killed the Discord call I was in as everyone slowly lost any enthusiasm, and the main event was just... There.

Poor Ruby and Athena. TK did NOT “reset” the women’s division here tonight.

Even the lower points of this show weren't even that bad. Forgivable, even. I still give it a 9. Nowhere near as shitty as the booking decision that we saw yesterday.

I went 6. Ending rocked. Trios title, Tag Titles and Punk/Mox rocked. Everything else was just there. It would have been a 7 or 8 but I think they still have work to do with pacing. I might be grading it slightly harsh but there’s just too much going on still. I’m tired of 4-5 hour shows.

Poor Ruby and Athena. TK did BOT “reset” the women’s division here tonight. Not with Jade, but Toni and the Britt/Jamie feud do help. He said it'd also reset more post All-Out. I am curious what he means there. Toni's first challenger maybe?

A+ content mixed with D+ content so a weird mix. But I think overall the highs outweighed the lows. It sadly wasn't as much of a "this is f***ing awesome top to bottom save for a big show breather" as All Out last year but it's tough to top one of the best PPVs. I don't feel crappy like I did after Clash so that's something.
