    One of the reasons I love AEW is that they introduce me to all these awesome lucha’s I wouldn’t know about if they didn’t exist. Gravity’s great. And so is the wrestler.

    Long focus on “Book the women’s division better” sign.

    Hahaha, I mean I agree but probably shouldn’t advertise it.

    Terrible mental health days this week but Dynamite helps so much. I’m so proud of Orange Cassidy for making it big and landing a bigger role in AEW <3

      I wasn’t sure about him at first but now OC’s one of my favourites. And I hope everything’s okay. If OC doesn’t help, a healthy dose of MJF and Adam Cole should do the trick :p

    MJF is so damn good. I don’t see many people say it: he’s got some serious skills as a writer. That promo is a good example of that.

    Can we start making sure teams are easily identified by their tights.

    From the wont angle it looks like Mox and Chuck are a team. Casual viewers need to be able to quickly identify who’s who in a matchoke this and I feel like they could have done much better.

        I can understand there being limitations on Dark where you have performers who may only have so much gear available or with them. Yes I can understand what’s going on but my friends trying to get back in to wrestling can’t, especially in a chaotic match.

          All great points. It’s happened twice in the last few weeks (Acclaimed and Bollywood Boys). I wonder if it has anything to do with AEW’s seamstress retiring?

            I doubt it, the newer costumes look really good, I don’t know how involved the seamstress and costume design people are with the day to day matches.

            I dunno I think it would be simple enough to bring someone who works for the company down line up 4-6 guys and say can you tell whose on whose side? See what their answer is and why and see how to change it.

            Stables and teams should have something of a style guide.

            BCC Black, Red, and white. Cant just be black and white cuz of HoB

            HoB Black and white

            The Acclaimed Pink and white with some black and Bowens gets pride themed gear

            Best friends Lighter blues and blacks

            CMFTR Pink and black

            Bullet Club Gold Black and Gold

            Young Bucks/Elite The pants and the Jordans are always coordinated, I’d like to see all them in a more coordinated look when it’s The Elite or The Golden Elite.

            This isn’t hard, it’s not like I’m limited to the Fight Forever CAW system…

      Yeah AR is a great worker but with the prestige OC built I want it going to Jay or Starks but maybe it’s a Dynamite only title now.

        I would love to see them win it, too. I’d just like to see a shorter title reign or two, just to mix it up a bit. And I think Fox could be a fun candidate for that kinda thing.

        I’ve only been watching her since the Death Dollz run in Impact and didn’t necessarily get the hype but she keeps winning me over.

        She always looks soo happy beating girls up too

          Another Impact fan? I figured I was the only one here. I might start some Impact discussion threads if there’s enough interest.

          And Death Dollz are great. Rosemary in particular deserves a lot more attention.

            I’ve been slacking as of late. They got ravaged by injuries and departures. I’m also a huge Moose fan and didn’t like him losing to Joe Hendry.

            I’ll get around to checking it out again at some point.
