I’m not going to say it was the worst dynamite match because I can remember at least 5 others that I disliked more but… what was that?
you got the 10/10 start with gunn getting behind white during white’s entrance pulling an obi-wan “hello there” and then shit completely went off the rails. it was not a no dq match but I think the bell rang and they were still out in the crowd for what felt like 5 minutes? maybe 10 minutes?
jay gets his ass kicked the entire time and then you see the acclaimed laid out but acclaimed run down a second later to save ass who got hit in the balls. jay tries to hit ass with a chair but the chair goes flying up the ramp like it was titus o’neil, he shotput that shit and just what the hell was all of this
the amount of anti chemistry between these two was genuinely astounding

Genuinely they need to end this feud at Dynasty and put Billy out to pasture. This needs to be his last hurrah as a wrestler.

They put 60 year old Billy Gunn and Jay White out there for over 10 minutes just to go to a DQ finish...
You gotta suspend the producer and Booker for that. Just dumb all around.

It was what it was, but it didn't need the DQ finish, Billy Gunn can f***ing lose to Jay White, he can lose to everyone, he doesn't need to be protected
I get he's a champion so protect the guy with the belt and then also protect Jay because he also has a belt but I feel like if this was Caster or Bowens White just woulda won.

It was 10 years ago that they had The Shield squash Kane and The New Age Outlaws on WM30 in one of the most blatant statements of intent there could be. What was the line on commentary? “There goes the Attitude Era”?
So as it reads to me, it seems very weird that Billy Gunn is in matches getting most of the offense and getting a protected DQ win against someone like Jay White, who has legitimate main eventer cred from New Japan. And it’s even weirder that it’s AEW doing this, not WWE.

That's my issue with the whole thing out the Acclaiked trio Billy can eat the fall and not lose any heat. Why did we do this DQ finish.

Make the BCG look like shithead cowards, which I understand, since Billy is the Hoss Powerhouse even at his age, but yeah, Jay coulda just also won if they had to cheat

He's getting up there in age and there's only so much he can do. Shouldve done this with Bowens or Caster instead. It felt the segment could've trimmed off five minutes too and would've been fine.

I know we're putting the blame on Gunn and rightly so, but honestly White just doesn't do it for me as a singles guy. Just one of the those guys I don't *get*.

I would like a "I survived a Billy Gunn vs Jay White match." Make it happen TK.

Billy Gunn was bad but WTF was with Jay there? He seemed really off tonight and it wasn't just because Billy Gunn probably shouldn't be doing singles matches in 2024.

I thought he was great around 2020/2021 but ever since losing the title to Ibushi, something has been off. He's capable of great stuff from time to time, he just hasn't had that consistency in a really long time.

But it's about to be a year since he's officially been part of the roster and yeahhhhhh...his first year's been underwhelming to me.
