That match had the biggest sin of all about it... it was boring, and it was I believe solo JR commentary when he was at his lowest too I fell asleep during that match, not even ashamed to say that I did just like, pure Nyquil lmfao it’s over a half hour of Hagar, I’m not sure how any of us stayed awake Hager CAN work, the Wardlow Cage Fight shows that That match however, peak COVID era, JR solo commentary, completely empty arena so no energy at all for it... it was a perfect storm of "Oh my god NO" lol

If Daddy Ass quickly turns heel and joins Jay, Juice and his sons I can see why this match went down the way it did because the turn would be a complete shocker.

That Mel mention reminded me of how I saw her in AAW after that atrocious match and I had to get up and go to the bathroom because I refused to see her. She didn't even wrestle, I just couldn't do it. She had one kinda-sorta okay match in AEW, but it was on a Dark or Elevation versus KiLynn King, and it was basically solely due to King being someone of comparable size who could work and at least get a sort of novel dynamic out of it of somebody Mel didn't tower over. It still wasn't very good, but KiLynn's just fun enough to manage it. Hope she's back from injury soon in Impact, she is a lot of fun.

this may be a cursed week because i actually thought the uso/uso match was worse than this considering the build, it being on ppv, how cool it could've been a year ago, etc.
i did not see that coming

Now I'm imagining Jay vs Billy at Wembley and crying... House of Torture at WrestleKingdom is still the worst match of the whole year for me though... like easy.

House of Torture at WrestleKingdom is still the worst match of the whole year for me though... like easy. that wrestlekingdom one comes close but yeah, i hated both of these matches. the jay/billy one is weirder because of the age difference and match structure while the uso one was just the absolute dirt worst. i like jey a lot, jimmy can be really funny but it was the rare wrestlemania match where i felt embarrassed. the idea of having a match between real brothers who probably thought about having this match for decades, shooting the shit about it and hoping it would one day happen and it is... that. i think people will be harsher on it in the future, it made matt vs jeff at mania look like ZSJ/Danielson. least favorite wwe match in forever and least favorite aew match ever in a matters of days. what a bummer.

Got caught up on this yesterday, and uh...yeah, no clue what the thinking was on this.
Like, ok, it wasn't a complete bomb with the guys like tripping all over themselves or something, but why were this match and this segment so long? Could've easily booked Gunn attacking White from behind, them brawling around ringside/the crowd for a few minutes, then just have White grab and chuck a chair at Billy once they got to the ring or something and get to the group brawl right after.
If it was that Billy wanted to show he could still go in a singles match, then, uh...no. Dude's in absurd shape especially for his age, but gotta know your limits and there's no reason White should've been wrapped up in that.

Ibushi vs Marafuji has to be the worst so far this year. Can't imagine anything topping it. Especially as it went over 30 mins without anyone stopping it.

I agree that the Usos match was worse. At least we're able to laugh at this match now.

At least we're able to laugh at this match now. the healing process begins until jason jordan decides to write the wrestling equivalent of a death note again This post from earlier in the thread put the match in a whole different light for me: Gunn literally didn't take any kind of bump in this match. The only "moves" he did were terrible. He could barely get White up for that slam before the double-dpwn, and the two rocker droppers looked awkward as f***. I was actually quite entertained by White's HBK circa Summerslam 05 overselling as the match went on (and on, and on...). It looked like an indie match where the star is pissed at the promoter for something and only does the bare minimum, but the local guy still wants to at least get himself over.

Fair, though that had injuries involved, so it was very unfortunate, and downright depressing... it should have absolutely never happened

The match was bad.

I was there for it; it wasn't god awful or anything, but a bare bones basic "lol tana wins" match layout, because God knows Billy wasn't going to be pulling off much else in a singles bout.

Finally got around to seeing this.
This was like one of those old Impacts where people wouldn’t finish brawling until they hit basically every square inch of the building.
The only thing I could think was “Did Jay shit in an agent’s bag or something?”

The only thing I could think was “Did Jay shit in an agent’s bag or something?” it is certainly the biggest match i've seen in AEW that made me wonder if a talent had failed a test or something lmao
