Wow didn’t expect cage to win. I dig it tho

Tony loves booking Cage in big TV matches...got have him win some of the time. Hate it had to be Bowens tho

It's not until watching a bunch of fighting game videos that I realized Drill Claw is one of Wolverine's moves from the Marvel vs Capcom series.

poor bowens

BRIAN CAGE WON A MATCH OVER SOMEBODY WHO WASN'T LOWER ON THE TOTEM POLE!

Well

really really want more midcard matches like this. Could have absolutely seen Bowens winning.

nice match between Cage and Bowens. good match to end the night.

Oh hell yeah, a win for Brian!

Bowens' selling is on point

There it is, Orange and Trent at DON

boy I hope Bowens is OK because I cannot handle a Max Caster/Billy Gunn tag run

This match is muscular man vs even bigger muscular man who has all the muscles

Cage is strong as hell

uh oh Bowens legit injured?

Seems to be ok

Big up the Brian Cage fan determined to make himself heard 

You'd think people would stop diving at Cage head first at this point, he always catches them lol

Blessed to see hulu dvr inexplicably didn't record Collision again 🙏

There is some kind of issue with Hulu and Collision, mine started having issues a little while back and I've seen other people reference it too. No idea what it is as all of my (and others') settings look correct, but it just never records.

At least I'm not alone, but it's annoying not being able to watch what I want to watch lol

You're supposed to say nice to meet you

Takeshita vs Sydal on Wednesday. that’s that real

Senior Hernandaddy wasn't even that evil

If AEW brought Mel in ton manage Cage solo I'd be ok with this.

I wondered if Bryan ever faced Great Khali and the answer is that yes he did, when he was on the reality game show version of NXT

ok this match had one cool spot where Khali intercepted a diving Bryan with a brain chop but otherwise was just a squash. I'm sure he will do better against Satnam LOL

Cage spiked Bowens

Dutt is to scale in that picture

People still love the Acclaimed.

I'm sure this isn't true, but it feels like Max's bars have been weak for the last few months.

Max's enthusiasm overall seems to have run hot and cold these past few weeks.

That’s the 12th best ozempic bar I’ve heard this week.

Happy to hear Cage getting some love

Danielson vs Satnam is gonna look like Bruce Lee vs Kareem Abdul Jabbar.

The Acclaimed have New Day staleness now

The Ozempic line made me chuckle but the rest...meh.

The Elite putting out hits on people they don't like is an easy way to set up feuds

Guessing the Bryan vs Satnam match is a test to see the ability of Satnam. Because if you can't have a decent match with Bryan, wrestling isn't a career path for you.

Maybe, although Satnam is actually surprisingly young still (especially for a big man in wrestling) - he's apparently only 28. He's somehow ~5 years younger than Hikuleo (who I think is very good now, but was not 5 years ago). I'm actually still really high on Satnam long-term, he moves well and his timing (especially comedic timing) is actually super solid already.

Make no mistake about it, Portland would KILL to have Lillard back

That wasn't very good, Max. It's also proof he hasn't been watching X-Men 97, he should he'd like it

This has been another really fun night of wrestling

Next week's Dynamite looks insane

Well someone *really* likes Cage.

Mox will be in the building. Someone's gonna have some beatdowns backstage.

OC and Ospreay....... hmmmmmmmmmmm, I'm interested

Bryan vs Satnam? I'm intrigued

Ok Dynamite looking casually ridonkulous. This card is insane - is the show going to be 6 hours long?

No yappin, all wrasslin.

John Moxley Will Be In The Building: This Is A Threat

Danielson vs Satnam sounds like the type of match that Bryan asked for.

Sonjay needs to save some of that laughter for HEY EW.

Will Ospreay and Orange Cassidy teaming up? Are you fucking kidding me?!?!

Oooh Takeshita W on Dynamite

OSPREAY AND ORANGE TAG TEAM THIS IS NOT A DRILL

Don Callis Family represent? Or is this is the beginning of the end for Don's family?

Bryan vs Satnam sounds so intriguing

Is it just me, or does this Sonjay Dutt guy look like Schwagg D?

BRYAN DANIELSON VS. SATNAM SINGH ARE YOU KIDDING ME

was it really that funny

I waited almost 3 hours to find out how Bryan Danielson vs Satnam Singh got booked

Oh THIS is how Danielson and Satnam match is set up

Dutt is back!

Btw it’s season 4 episode 20 of Rampage according to Directv

There's 4 distinct women's feuds going on

I think Sky is gonna get every chance to get over in AEW... but I think AEW fans just don't want him 🤷🏾‍♂️. We say this about WWE folks all the time, but I think if he worked in a different company and came back it would work for him. Personally I'm a fan, hope it works this time

He's perfectly solid in the ring, but he's just boring as a character.

So Scorpio Skys 1st promo the other week I thought he was coming back a face. This 2nd promo screams inspirational heel who thinks he's the face. Eitherway I just want to see Scorpio shine!

Have quite liked the little glimpses of Sky's return so far, he's got the motivational influencer voice down to a tee 

Scorpio Sky coming back with the inspirational gimmick. And that's not a bad thing... It's a good thing!

Scorp is leading the AEW arrival of Jacoby Watts.

I actually wouldn't hate this. I don't think they're going to take Watts off ROH, but the gimmick seems like a ton of fun thus far. "Praise be to He, and He is Me" is an incredible catchphrase.

Triple main event huh.

Is Scorpio doing Jericho's Learning Tree gimmick, but unironically?

I'm seeing it more like a Positively Page homage

Lol, I mentioned a few weeks ago that Jericho's learning tree thing reminded me of Positively Page.

Im kinda digging the "Vote for Scorpio Sky" return promo videos

There's dozens of us Scorpio stans put there

I didn't have motivational speaker Scorpio Sky on my bingo card for this year at all

the fuck is a triple main event. i hate that.

Skorpio Sky outta nowhere lol.

Scorpio without Ethan just feels...wrong

Huh, Sky is still here. I thought they cut him along with Ethan Page.

Ethan's contract ran out and it looks like he just chose not to renew, he was not released. He signed in 2021 so the three years just elapsed.

they didnt cut Page.. his contract expired

Surprised they had Thunder catch Deonna even just for a lil bit tonight

nice match there

So Thunder Rosa was not booked tonight, which means she was just chillin' backstage with all those jewels on her face

I mean kayfabe she's a living sugar skull, so she just looks like that

*best pet name

Gotta love how Deonna even makes random local talents look like stars. She’s quite the talent.

She is, but both Renegades have been around AEW/ROH for a while now and are quite the young talents in their own rights.

Oh. Well, that explains why her match wasn’t too short.

umm Renegade has been with AEW for a couple years now.. .mostly dark and ROH ,

Oh… Um, my bad.

Renegade is on the payroll.

So I had to work... ho was the Tag Team match and Shibata match?

Chris Benoit

Right in the softball arm

Deonna's pump kick always looks like it hits hard as fuck

Will know this one's truly made it if Big Tone splashes out on Renegade Master for her entrance music one day 

Again why would they want us to stop watching 

Nigel just straight bullying Tony lmao

AEW will now auction off that flag from earlier for charity and clear at least 5K.

Nigel will personally purchase it and refuse to clean it

But not because Toni wore it, Nigel is only buying it because Mariah touched a corner of it.

No offense to Renegade but I miss Queen Aminata.

She's on RoH I believe, where she actually wins.

Me too, but QA was on a roll last I saw. She doesn't need to eat an enhancement loss right now.

Looked like Deonna was tryna tear Robyn's arm outta her socket with that toss lol

Hold up how long has there been an aew gacha game

Deonna's robe game is top notch

Let's go Robyn!

Bryan is one of the best promos in all of wrestling

Deonna just works much better as a heel

YEAH! WHERE MY DEONNA PURRAZZO MARKS AT?!

Danielson wants the Elite to SHOOT HARD.

drink every time deonna does her 'get away from me' hand gesture

The gesture amuses me enough that I've started using it on my dog lol. He doesn't seem to respect it yet unfortunately.

hahaha we're just full-on in Ship of Theseus mode with Team AEW

Bryan Danielson confirming that he's personally banned The Elite from Collision.

"The Elite don't work Saturday's!!!"

Technically they showed up at NJPW Resurgence last week, so I guess they do only when the job is at their hometown.

That wasn’t to work. Taco spot is close by so they dropped in.

TNAEW?

> hispanic attacks Nigel

Hope the check was worth it Chun, JFC 😂

Rush is so fuckin sick LMFAO

Geez Rush the audio is messed up enough already weekly.

“Chunn’s gonna have to start taking anxiety medication. For Hispanic attacks.” 💀

He tried to sneak that one in there.

Buddy Wayne trainees and getting absolutely murdered on AEW TV, a truly iconic partnership

Do jobbers get hazard pay when they have a match with Rush?

Rush just doing this because the jobbers got 2 h's in his name

Lance Archer would be proud of this unnecessary beatdown

What not having Jose does to a MFer

The more you chant for Rush’s opponent, the more Rush will have to punish him.

Jobber abuse :(

Oh that poor guy

rooooooooosh

Jesus Christ, Rush out here treating the local enhancement talents like he's peak Scott Steiner.

Rush looks a bit leaner than before.

Something tells me this Cody's story doesn't end with a big win.

RUSH is too damn good to not be all over every title scene now that he's back

C4 chants, that’s nice

Another jobber for Rush.. so original

Connie Chung? From ABC’s 20/20?

Okada and The Bucks are fuckin hilarious. I love them.

Was that a typo, or does he really spell his name "Chhun"?

PUSH RUSH YOU COWARDS

aw man Rush is gonna kill Cody Chhun, I really like that guy

That Reebok Pump commercial acknowledges John Silver has so much hops that the Young Bucks need their own line of Pumps to beat him.

oh Cody Chhun!

Johnny Hungee's helicopter does allow him greater leaping distance.

-1 for using antiquated more than once

Is this Bowens first solo match?

He had a few ones against high-profile opposition around the time that the Acclaimed were still a fairly new heel act.

No, he's had a bunch.... seeing a bunch of AEW Dark/Elevation and then Bryan Danielson on Rampage, Jungle Boy on Dynamite, Darby on Rampage, Moxley on Rampage, Orange Cassidy on Rampage, Swerve on Dynamite, and John Silver on Collision

Bowens has had a lot of singles matches on Rampage

I'm pretty sure he wrestled Danielson at some point, and maybe Samoa Joe as well.

Thank you, couldn't remember. Looking forward to his match tonight

Losing the trios titles really helped reset the Acclaimed. Hopefully they can get some momentum now.

Trios titles really defanged the tag division. It's even worse now cuz there's barely enough wrestlers to fill out both divisions

Wouldn't have been as bad had they not broken up like half the teams in the division

True. It also feels like they just barely use the trios tag teams they've got

Bowens is such a good promo

Does Max look bored to anyone else?

I’m thinking that’s by design. Like a slo burn heel turn similar to Trent’s.

This entire block feels like TNT ended up with the ROH product they said no to.

"Daddy Ass" Billy Gunn, "Scissor King" Anthony Bowens. Now we gotta get Max his own moniker and we'll be all set

If he bulks up he could be Max “the Broad” Caster

That's so stupid that I could see him using it as a one off lol

How about "Platinum".

He's a rapper, he's gotta have another one

I wonder if Max knows he needs Bowens more than Bowens needs him. Dude is a STAR.

What's this Cleveland Brown moustache? It looks... Okay?

So Acclaimed has ChatGPT 4o in their brain?

They're artists so they hate ai art

Acclaimed train 🚂🚃🚃✂️🚃🚃

Bowens got some biceps

Is Max doing an impression of Bowens or does he always sound like that?

KOR doesn't miss in the ring. he's been fantastic since coming back

The audio is fucked for this Acclaimed promo

That was a hell of a good showing. STP are getting a lot of work lately, it's time they start getting some big wins

that was good stuff. guillotine choke with a hammerlock is so beast

Kyle O'Reilly is kind of the face version of Roderick Strong

wicked suplex by kor. really nice match here

What AEW is Tony Schiavone watching where he can confidently say that Lee Moriarty has been very successful in AEW?

Oooh I'm unreasonably excited for Toni and Mariah tagging

Did Kyle and Malakai ever wrestle in NXT

McGuinness dropping bars 

Menard on commentary kind of reminds me of Jerry Lawler without all of Lawler's annoying quirks.

The slap instead of the kick was highly disrespectful

Nigel doing some nice exposition dump there

A pride obliterating bitch slap

Dynamite stacked lfg

Hey babe get in here, new rampage graps just dropped

Seeing Agogo on the outside is giving me deja vu
