I agree. I'd put Moxley vs Lee as my MOTN, but Shida/Rose, Archer/Code, and Jungle Boy/MJF were all really solid matches in their own right. The main was something else all together. It was stunning and fun and amusing. Not sure how to compare it to traditional wrestling matches, but I loved it.

Matches that are shot and presented like a movie fight scene are so far removed from what I watch wrestling for that I don't think I can enjoy them on any level. On the whole, though, I liked the show. All the showcase singles matches delivered, and most of the others were kept short enough to be inoffensive. The only real misfire was the opening ladder match.

Anyone else watch Winter is Coming? I know the feelings seem mixed on twitter, but its been a long while since I have been caught that off guard with some big picture stuff. On paper I should have hated the night, but in reality I was amped for it all.

I'm heartbroken. Had the privilege to see him wrestle live two years in a row, and boy was his passion for wrestling mesmerizing. Everyone talks great about him. Still so young, and starting to rebuild his career. This is cruel as fuck.

I am shocked. This is so sad. I didn't really know him before AEW but he quickly became one of my favorite this year. He was so charismatic and funny in his own way, it was easy to see he loved what he was doing. He also seemed to be a very appreciated human being and a great family man, he will be missed. RIP.

I became a big fan during his initial Wyatt Family run. It was a shame WWE could never properly utilize him but his run in AEW, as tragically brief as it was, was really good.

If you haven't check out Serena Deeb vs Riho from this week's Dynaimte. I thought it was a fantastic match.
They also announced Moxley vs Omega in an exploding barbed wire death match, which at least has me absolutely AMPED.

Yeah... this past reset after the last ppv took a little time and doing. It was also mixed with a few misses, but it is starting to feel like it is coming together. This upcoming PPV is going to be a little uneven as there are a few things I am not into, but they COULD fix some of it. Regardless, I am really into the main even stuff. I am really into what is gong on with the AEW/NJPW/Impact relationship. I am really into how they seem to be rebuilding the women's division. There is just a lot of stuff I find to be at best genuinely great and at worst "just fun".
Also, someone needs to upload that Deeb v Riho match to dailymotin or youtube so I can download it. It isn't quite worthy of a nomination from me, but it is one of my favorite matches of the year so far. I'm hoping this is setting up a rematch for the belt at the ppv.

At first I thought it was going to be an exploding barbed wire cage, but yeah I am super excited for this. Really like how AEW's been resurrecting old school gimmicks like the dog collar, bunkhouse brawl, and now exploding barbed wire.
