AEW has reportedly already sold 60,000 tickets to All In at Wembley. Whether you're an AEW fan or not, that's great news for wrestling as a whole.
They need to put on a no nonsense well booked card. They need to start regaining their audience, their TV ratings for Dynamite have gone through a massive slide.
If forgot backlash was on tonight.
Meh.

Yeah, even the demo has dropped. I do appreciate them trying to build up the Four Pillars stuff, but the whole feud has kind of exposed how far ahead MJF is on the mic than the rest of them.
Bad Bunny's entrance at Backlash last night might be one of the greatest crowd reactions to an entrance ever.
Crowd was hot last night.
It's still crazy that the guy who is probably the most popular musician in the world right now and easily worth millions just goes "Yeah I want to do wrestling on the side because I love it"

Jungle boy is a dead weight on that group.
0 charisma, he's a midcard guy at best.
I love MJF, but he's better chasing the belt then carrying a belt.
Just to add on, but even listening to Corny, the 15 minute breakdowns of Dynamite are damning. People are tuning out enmasse when the elite and Jericho, and the woman's division hit the screens.
I'm interested in the rumors of a Saturday night show with Punk returning, will it be completely separate, will Tony be booking it?

Eh, I like Jungle Boy more than Darby. Darby without Sting just isn't very interesting.
Jungle Boy is arguably the best worker of the four. He's also still only 25 years old, and has been getting progressively better. That said, his ceiling might be that of a Shelton Benjamin-type. A guy who can put on good matches and get other dudes over, but may never be a main event guy.

I don't know why, that was an amazing crowd when I watched the replay tonight. But the reaction by Vega to the crowd was kind of very cool.
But I've always loved wrestlers in their hometowns.

Easy top 5 pop of all time
The way it was shot was so good as well with the drone
The fact he is doing this is so nuts and feels like it's not talked about enough, he clearly loves it, hes not just doing it to make himself look good, his selling his great

Yeah really both him and Logan Paul have no reason to do this other than because they actually like doing it, and you can tell they do love it because both of them have been great so far and seemed to have put in the work.
It's not just that they're both doing it. It's not that they both legitimately seem to love doing it. It's that they're both way better at it than they have any business being. There are people who've ate slept and breathed wrestling from a young age, starting training in their early to mid teens who aren't on the same level as these two after barebones training with Curtis Axel.
East Coast Pro Wrestling's 20th Anniversary Show is now up on the YouTubes:
My stellar intro was cut from TV, which is fine, the less my ugly mug is on screen the better for ratings.
I never actually saw any of the women's match, but apparently it was the match of the night. I was trying to make sure that the next segment was set up, ready, and I knew what was going on. I just happened to walk back to the music area, heard the bell ring and thought "well I hope they didn't pull and audible as I didn't see the finish" and announced the winner, lol.
Also fun fact, the announcer calling the matches is the play-by-play guy for the QMJHL's Cape Breton Eagles.

The 10 new episodes for Dark Side of the Ring season 4 are:
Chris Candido & Tammy
Magmum T.A
Adrian Adonis
Doink the Clown
Junkyard Dog
Marty Jannetty
Bam Bam Bigelow
Abdullah The Butcher
Bash at the Beach 2000
The Graham Family
I honestly can't wait for the Bash at the Beach 2000 episode. That PPV was an absolute cluster####.
Sounds like the press release was supposed to include that CM Punk was returning...but some last minute drama changed that.
It sounds like he didn’t want his return to be announced. I tend to agree with that, would be a massive opportunity to show up and create a storyline with the Elite.
By the way, the last two weeks Dynamite has been really good. With the new Saturday show they seem to have regained some focus, and a few “back pocket” storylines seem to be let out of the bag. Should be an interesting few weeks!
