Doesn’t Gabe still work for the E? Yep. But who knows how that might work? I'm trying to think of names.

I think AEW could benefit from going back to taping at Daily's Place for a while. It might liven up the vibe of the shows. Right now, these arenas just aren't making noise and it sounds really bad on TV. This is not the look they want. I think taping at Daily's Place would be a good way for this company to try to reset a little bit. It would also save them a little money too. Would AEW snagging Gabe Sapolsky do anything for anyone? It would certainly free up Tony to focus on business instead of fantasy booking.

A lot of Tony's issues are the same ones Gabe would have.
He's never booked for a weekly TV.
I'd call Scott D'Amore. He seemed really well liked.

So the AEW Battle of the Belts show actually didn't have any AEW belts defended on it? And can we stop with all the "eliminator" matches. Completely overused at this point.

FTW, International eliminator & ROH Womens
Athena now 50-0 in ROH and a year and a half into her run as champ. Fully expect Billie Starkz, her minion, to ultimately be the one to win it from her. But it’ll take a while.
I do agree AEW titles should be defended on it, but we’re at BOTB 10 now and only 1 time has a title ever changed hands I think. So I’m beyond done with trying to make sense of it whenever it happens every few months.
If you can build a PPV match (Roddy vs Kyle) off the show and also incorporate your ROH champ in the mix, that’s fine with me.
I actually enjoyed the show last night. Very easy watch.

Yeah it's kind of pointless to complain about it anymore.
It is what it is.

I get it. Especially with the PPV on Sunday.

I get it too, you want an appetizer for the main card Sunday.
Having tag matches with guys like Daddy Magic involved means you know who is taking the pin.
Though I wonder who eats the pin in the Elite/FTR/PAC tag. Probably a no contest or fuck finish, which they rarely do.

Ok, I don’t want these three to break up, I want them together forever. Stokely is a walking meme.

1. Should’ve happened last night
2. This needs to start the show, with a lot of viewers left from the NBA, put your World Champion front and center. Maybe even have him interact with Omega? Maybe whomever he’s going to face at Double or Nothing? That way the official match announcement can be on Dynamite. Perhaps Omega is that challenger, though I don’t know if he’s cleared.

Does the basketball game being a blowout help or hurt the start of Collision?

Not sure on that one but Harvey Weinstein being hospitalized today might help.

Running 7 minutes of commercials after the game, plus one telling fans to change the channel to find the basketball game, probably didn't help either.

This is the presentation Swerve should've had on Wednesday.

Swerve and Claudio will be solid.

That wasn't even the best presentation for Swerve to be honest.
I liked him talking about his kids, but it wasn't much else IMO about what makes him special, or what the title means to him.
He recapped Dyanamite and out over Tony Khan.

I thought it was a great promo and setup for Swerve. Should've been done Wednesday, but I'm willing to get over that now.
And I like how he mentioned Perry and The Bucks. Your top guy should be involved in your top angle. Good for them.
I like that he's gonna be a Bret Hart-esque "fighting" champion.

I wanted more of him I guess.
Oh well.

I wanted more of him I guess. Oh well. I agree. I was hoping he'd talk about his family more, but he just kinda moved on from it.

Not trying to sound like a sappy bitch, but seeing wrestling at Daily's Place just feels right. I'm already loving this show.
