I really don't understand the logic in rushing to book Ospreay/Strickland. They should have saved that match for a pay per view down the road. Also they're both faces, and Ospreay already has his mid-card belt. Seems like a lose/lose scenario. Just weird and random booking.

Also that Jericho "TV Time" segment yesterday was one of the worst bits of wrestling I've seen in a long time. Jericho has become poison for AEW. I wonder if he's doing it on purpose to "help WWE"? Nobody could think that was good television.

Panic booking, they haven't done a great job with Strickland since he won the belt.



I really don't think Jericho has been good at anything for a good long time. I really think Fozzy needs to go on a 2 year tour

It's weird because you had Ospreay talking about defending the belt all over the world and how it wants a long reign and to bring prestige to that belt (which seemed like a good move).

And now it's like Nevermind he's getting a title shot.

One thing TK got absolutely right was bringing Okada in as a heel. He's been absolutely crushing it in his current role.

I enjoyed the match. Although they could have promoted it better... or made it the mainevent at Forbidden Door itself. Rather than on a random Dynamite out of nowhere. It's crazy how many big international superstars show up without any kind of promotion or hype. The booking is absolutely abnormal.

Great promo as well. It's unfortunate he's vocal backstage, as one of WWE or AEW could really use him.
