In the AEW World Title Steel Cage Match tonight, the ref enforced a rope break during a submission (???) but also allowed a briefcase shot to the head - what!?

I can't recall ever seeing a rope break enforced in a cage match - it's no DQ!

Didn’t this happen in the womens 4-way as well? Shenanigans.

I just realized that Toni Storm is the modern day Golddust.
Probably coached by the man himself.

Why break up the Acclaimed to Jannety them both

They made it look like Bowens was gonna get the push, but he jobs every week.

My DVR didn't pick it up for some reason but I ended up catching the end which I thought was the Mercedes match and what looked to be like a 40 minute over run. Did anyone's DVR get this right

They just keep dropping these banger full matches on YouTube. I honestly think there’s been a bit of a barrier to this stuff for more casual fans. The addition of Max and now this YouTube push has been great.



I think this match is one of the best examples of American style wrestling. Both guys do so well with the classic face/heel dynamic.

If Hangman doesn't win I will find out where Moxley lives and go run him over with my Tucson. This has to end.

It would be great if Hangman won and we found out the briefcase was empty. Moxley sold the belt for hookers and blow months ago.

I'd rather see Osprey or Swerve take it off Mox though.

Mostly tuned out on wrestling now a days but looked into today and wanted to know when aew turned into hogan era tna having all the old timers all over the show? 56 year old dustin rhodes is winning titles, 50/48 year old shelton/bobby lashey were already champs and retained, 51 year old christian had a match, and im not even counting joe whos also like 46 or something. back when i was more into wrestling aew was the youth movement promotion


i barely even watch wwe anymore (goldberg is having a title match i found out???) mostly due to part timers/old timers so oof

Honestly, overall the show did not meet my expectations. Was hoping this would instantly be in the top 5 PPVs for the company, but it ultimately fell short for me.

Texas Death Match and women’s main event were both spectacular. Bucks vs Swerve/Ospreay was great, as was the Women’s Casino Gauntlet. But beyond that, everything else was just kinda there.

Opening with the Opps trios match was baffling, injury angle ending was weird. Men’s Gauntlet went on way too long with too few surprises. TNT title match was such downer after Adam Cole’s speech, and the feel-good Dustin Rhodes win couldn’t buoy the mood. Tag team title match was just a vehicle for Christian/Edge story which I am not interested in seeing (but MJF antics were enjoyable). Omega/Okada, my most anticipated match, seemed like it ended suddenly just after hitting second gear.

Production felt like a challenge for the crew. The large event space hampered the unity of camera transitions and I felt a lot more quick camera cutting than is usual for AEW. The overall pacing of the show was rather plodding and the runtime was simply too long. The back half of the show was much stronger than the first.

My complaints only come as a result of the company’s insane track record with PPVs. Much like the Okada/Omega match, we’ve come to expect such a level of quality that it’s surprising when the result isn’t S-tier. It was still an enjoyable event with a wonderful ending to the main storyline. But, the show as a whole did unfortunately fail to meet the (admittedly lofty) level I was expecting.

Has anyone outside of one of the Four Horsewomen come out of a feud with Charlotte Flair looking better? Toni's burial by Charlotte didn't help

Charlotte made Rhea in a great match two Wrestlemanias ago and she made Tiffany Stratton at this year's.

Admittedly, Tiffy didn't look great immediately following the match, but after they covered her bruising and fixed her chipped tooth she was a legit champ.

Really fantastic PPV. Better than All In, in my opinion.

Great matches, spectacular cage match. Bozilla the breakout star of the night.

For whatever reason, All Out is usually the one show I always think I’ll skip. But then, I catch up with what’s going on and decide to go for it, and always ends up being a fantastic card.

Great flow throughout the show, Danielson is a delight on commentary. Some brutal matches with the TnT, coffin match, and the main event. An absolute SURPRISE win for KRIS mf STATLANDER, genuinely the most I’ve been shocked by a match result in several years. Great night all around, PPVs continue to have an immaculate record.
