If Sasha doesn't return to WWE I hope she ends up here. I need a reason to watch. There's Jericho but he's too old to be a full timer so I assume he'll be like a special attraction.

I really wish I could care about their roster more. Nearly any other promotion I'd be all over this, but I can't with Cody and The Youngbucks. I still hope their numbers are better than WWE's have been though. It’s a shame so many people who could be huge stars for them are just gonna waste away backstage in WWE. |

I love Cody and wish them the best of luck but is the really a market for wrestling to be promoted in a legitimate, less story-based and more sports centred light?
The problem in WWE right now is that everyone seems so vanilla and it's not character driven anymore. To me at least. I'd love a full blown drama filled wrestling show. I know Lucha Underground veer in that direction but they seem really shitty in how they treat wrestlers so I don't want to watch.

The first 3 seasons were great, even if they fucked over certain people by splitting the third into two halves to prevent them from going elsewhere. They've been even shittier since season 4 and the quality has dropped along with the morale. I'm done with it if it ever comes back for a fifth season. |

It wasn’t a flawless show by any means, but it had some great moments and great matches that have been lacking in WWE lately. It definitely feels like the closest thing WWE has had to competition since WCW. Already surpassed TNA in terms of feel and production. If they can keep this momentum going, then this is about to be fantastic for the wrestling business.
Having said all that, it has a LOT of issues and kinks they need to work out, but for a debut show, I liked it. I’ll definitely be watching the next show.

They desperately need to work on their women’s division. Kong was a nice surprise tho.

I really hate admitting it, but Cody vs. Dustin Rhodes was so fucking good. Easily match of the year so far for me.
AEW has so much potential, I hope they don't fuck it up by focusing too much on The Elite. And I really hope they put some effort into their women's division, because that was clearly an afterthought at Double or Nothing.

Last night's show was so fucking boring that I quit watching with three matches remaining.

I love that they have the old WCW style graphics on the ring mat.    I've wanted WWE to do that for years. It's so much more interesting to look at than a plain mat. |

They desperately need to work on their women’s division. Kong was a nice surprise tho. Fyter Fest was a step up for the women's division, but oh boy, Brandi vs. Allie was terrible. Brandi really shouldn't be in the ring, and she doesn't need to be in there either, she's perfectly fine as Cody's valet. |

So I just saw that some kinda preview show for AEW was on and I checked it out, but I’ve already turned it off because some guy got super intense and made himself bleed during a taped promo, I was so embarrassed.

This surfacing while he’s out with a serious injury. You hate to see it.
