I could not have had worse tickets really (£14 each though) but it was still class. They did great with the presentation and production, was a proper big event feel to it. Missed CM Punk while Newcastle were capitulating which was a shame.

We got a bit overexcited and got the £200 tickets despite never watching aew in our lives but it was a cracking view

The Usos new theme songs are so corny lmao. I don’t actually hate them but “ITS JUST ME UCE, DAY ONE ISH” is shocking
Also lol at AEW for even bothering to go back in with Punk. No idea what Khan was thinking

Maximum Male Models being Vince’s idea is definitely a surprise
I’ve watched loads of them through Xavier Woods’s YouTube stuff and they actually seem boss and a great pair of people to be round, WWE just dropped the ball with them I think

Edge coming out to his theme in AEW was absolutely class. Hope he has a good run and goes out how he wants.

Really does risk AEW starting to become a retirement home though.
Who are their top stars now? Hangman was meant to be one of the 'homegrown' ones. Omega?

As someone who was into WWE more about 6 years ago, how is only now that they’re giving DIY a main roster run 😭😭😭 very happy for them but Jesus that’s overdue

Everybody always knew McMahon was an absolute wrong-un but I genuinely didn't think it could get worse before todays news. And not just him either. What a horrible, toxic, disgusting environment.

HHH was an absolute disgrace in the press conference after the Royal Rumble

Mens rumble was the worst one since Del Rio. So forgettable

HHH was an absolute disgrace in the press conference after the Royal Rumble It can’t have been a surprise that he was asked about it so I don’t understand how he wasn’t more prepared. At the very least just hit it with a no comment if the lawyers have said he’s not to talk about it and follow up with a formal statement later.

Coming to something when HBK shows you up on the PR front (referring to HHH here).
There’s no way HHH sees this through anyway. Even if he somehow isn’t implicated in any of this (even if he didn’t take part, the notion of him being unaware is pretty fanciful), the optics of having Vince’s son in law still in charge once this is through will be horrible.

WWE fans are too fickle/uncaring about this kinda shit longterm. We talking about a historically carny-inspired racist and sexist business here. Unless he is heavily involved anyway, but they’ll do their best to protect him the same way Vince was for years lol All the wrestling ‘smarks’ that would protest against this kinda shit are AEW fans now anyway. Netflix have just got a deal with WWE and they’ve not exactly come out saying anything about any of this. The machine must go on. On another note, Rock really ruining Cody’s story? We already had Cody/Seth where Cody beat him like 3 times. Really poor but unsurprising if they go for it. Could have easily saved Rock/Roman for next year

It’s also partly Punk getting injured that ruined the Reigns/Rhodes plans, I think. Looked like Punk/Rollins was the original plan.
How much Triple H/Stephanie knew about Vince is interesting. Looks like they knew there was a lot more to the story when the first allegations came out and that’s why they were voting against him / why Stephanie left the company.
Still, if more people come forward, hard to see a version of the story where other big names don’t get implicated stretching back decades (Taker?).

I’m gonna need Roman to drop the title before WM if he’s gonna be facing Rock. That title needs changing before long but not to a part timer
But a Bayley face turn is what I’ve wanted for a while so glad we got that last night. I still hope Iyo retains at WM because Iyo is great but this is a good start to the road to WM
As for Vince, I don’t think there’s much chance that you don’t get more big names implicated. Taker was his enforcer backstage so would’ve known everything I imagine. Some potentially very grim times coming
