All Elite Wrestling discussion Thread

Indeed especially the latest dynamite shows I've really enjoyed punks and Bryan's matches and their growing rivalries with mjf and cowboy Page.

Seems the fans really hate Cody now. If he screwed page out of the title or even beat him for the title he’d be the biggest heel they’ve ever had. He’d get insane heat

Slowly kicking the amateurs and joke performers to the side. Sure enough the worst segment this week involved the bucks and Cassidy, so cringe worthy. Adam cole so wasted it’s unreal.

Yeah as Jim Cornette said on his podcast to Adam Cole "to paraphrase MJF I would say to Adam Cole You're better than this and you know it"

Cole is going to get his push next year for sure they still want to do it by the feud with Kenny for control of the super elite so it's just delayed until Kenny is back healthy, once Kenny turns face they will have a great main event run next summer I think and wouldn't be surprised to see him with the world belt this time next year

It will never happen as she's got the wrong sort of heat , he's got away heat , fans don't want to see him wrestling, it's not hate wanting to see him beat heat they just don't want to see him,
If they put him on this week show in New York he's going to get destroyed,
MJF and Bryan have got proper heat at the moment

It was pure desperation from Cody trying everything he can to get the fans on side, sadly for him completely messing up the angle is not going to help at all, his misses out the table in the wrong place and to much fuel on the table , plus they used oil based fuel which is why it stuck to Cody back and not alcohol based fuel everyone always does in the spots,
The fact the crowed didn't pop for it or give him any reaction at the end says it all , this go away heat will not change until he ditches the sad outdated Captain America gimmick,

Doing shit for the sake of doing shit! And on free tv at that for absolutely no other reason but his ego because story-wise it made zero sense. Just so stupid. At some point Tony Khan needs to tell these idiots enough already be it the silly comedy from the bucks, Jericho latching himself to anyone that's over or Cody's bullshit.

And it didn't even pop a rating.

Wow Hook made an incredible Debut didnt know he was the son of Taz

Just seen the elite against the best friends. Unbelievably bad tv. Just complete trash. Show started so well with cm punk and mjf too. Even if the battle royal made Hobbs look terrible again, the end of it was good.
Bryan was quality as always.

Went from a peak of 980,000 for Punk and MjF sections down to 814,000 for Danielson match at end of programme in US ratings this week

800k viewers same as what they was doing against nxt last year...
