A match set up during the show and a count out win on the same show. What got into Tony tonight? AND a "one guy comes out interrupting the one before" promo!!

Will they? MJF being super racist towards Takeshita just resulted in him being Takeshita and Takeshita is far more over than Jungle Boy is at the moment. They just had a reference pay off to QT punching Arn Anderson two years ago Not everything happens immediately here. But the problem is this build is entirely unnecessary. We know the end result is a fatal fourway, as it has been built. We don't need these hoops or these droning promos every week. It feels like that godawful Cena/Roman build a couple years ago where we knew the match but they had to throw in completely pointless obstacles that make the build drag ass.

I feel like there needs to be a way to set up why it's a four way since the angle before this is ONLY ONE COULD HAVE THE MATCH This gives legitimately grievance and way that all four get it They have over a month till the PPV, just deciding on the four way to me would have made it drag worse. We likely get the four way confirmation next week, I dont see the issue I guess.

Yeah like why are the promos still "THOSE PEOPLE IN THE BACK HELD ME DOWN BUT THEY DIDN'T HOLD YOU DOWN" like it's the four pillars who all have pretty defined characters(well maybe not JB but he has the pure babyface archetype down), just announce the match and give them all stuff playing off of that not just like "YOU DID A THING THAT THE SCRIPT LET YOU BECAUSE THEY LET YOU BUT THEY DON'T LET ME AND ALSO YOU HAVE TO WIN A TRIPLE DELUXE GAUNTLET MATCH" I wonder if MJF maybe needed a mini feud before this one started cuz we still have a lot of time before DoN and it feels like we're reaching the padding stage already.

I think if this wasn't the main event? May have worked a bit better, but came off clunky They had so much babyface triumph on the show it didn't bother me, like it's to continue the angle, continue the story, it made total sense for something like it to happen with what was set up Crowd will likely get good Rampage stuff so it won't be the end of their night at least Do they do the post show “send em home happy” stuff after all tapings are done?

That it doesnt matter because the ratings will be bad due to the playoffs and Live Coast to Coast, even you had 5 Kenny vs Okada matches, it just doesnt matter.

Yes usually with wrestlers or Tony Khan thanking them and such

I had one show end on a big heel moment and afterwards TK came out and was like "WELL THAT SUCKED DON'T CONDONE WHAT THE BAD GUYS DID THERE BUT HEYYYY THANK YOU FOR COMING GREAT SHOW YAYYYY!!!!!!" and the best friends posed and that made the crowd happy hahahha

Often, yeah. Rampage usually ends on an uncomplicated banger for that reason.

Having it be like this is awful because none of these guys have the mic skills or character to make this seem as important as they want it to be. MJF could have easily replicated that Ricky feud and had it with somebody like Fenix or Keith Lee or hell give him an underdog like Darius Martin to have a fight with. As is he is going to again probably not wrestle on TV and instead we get this. It's a REALLY bad build.

I think what happens is we get the four way next week, and then we get a tag match between MJF/Guevara and Jungle Boy/Darby, among some other stuff I think the builds gonna be ok because they have so many people to work with, though this is also why sometimes Tony might wait till right before the PPV to start some builds lol

Britt (getting beaten with the kendo stick): "AHH!!!!"

That Cole/Britt/JAS/Outcasts angle was so odd in tone. They went all melodramatic with the junior high level acting but Britt’s a wrestler we’ve seen her covered in blood in hyper violent matches with barbed wire,thumbtacks,chairs,tables and kendo sticks but here a simple 3 on 1 beatdown with a couple cane shots has Cole virtually in tears. That only works if Britt wasn’t a wrestler and was just Cole’s cute girlfriend that’s never taken a bump. This felt so forced for something on their AEW Total Divas shows. AUSTIN!!!
This might have been effective if AEW didn’t do anything hyper violent with the women ever but they’ve done women’s bloodbath’s with barbed wire on Rampage that were treated as afterthoughts after the fact. That’s the problem with the russo attitude era style excess AEW loves cause when you need it for an angle like this it’s not as effective as it could be. I think Jericho should have been the one to cane Britt cause what they did made Cole look kinda stupid freaking out when his girlfriend is a pro wrestler.

I think Jericho should have been the one to cane Britt cause what they did made Cole look kinda stupid freaking out when his girlfriend is a pro wrestler. Agreed. Like one of Britt’s thing is her ability to take punishment. One of th first things that got her over was her first match with Shida where she wrestled with a broken nose and was smiling during it. Then we’ve seen her smashed onto thumbtacks, chair piles, bleeding, etc. So her being SO overdramatic about a few frankly kind of weak looking kendo stick shots, was out of place. Also it feels like AEW wanted it both ways. You cannot have her essentially be super-Cena in the tag match earlier, then try and do this on the same show.
