I honestly can't see the WWE being all that interested in brining back Miro if the opportunity arises.



He was reportedly a pain in the ass in WWE, and while he got over for a brief period of time with Rusev day, he was never much of anything special.


They might want Lana back but if they try to negotiate as a package the WWE will likely pass.



I mean honestly I think she makes a bunch of money on social media and only fans.

I must be the only one that thinks Miro is extremely overrated. Was boring in WWE, was boring in AEW. I switched the channel whenever he was on.

I just want to see Miro have a Scott Norton run in NJPW and have a barn burner with Shingo Takagi.

One of the best matches I’ve ever seen. Solid PPV all around, Sting is a madman, and Darby is out of his mind but they got his send off. AEW seems to have made some production changes.

I think top to bottom that's their 2nd or 3rd best PPV, considering no omega or MJF that's impressive

How does that Darby spot get approved though

They need to tell ospreay he only needs to go like that 2 or 3x a year or hes not gonna have a long career

Just a killer PPV all around. I do wish the women's title match would have been something with a gimmick around it (ladder or no DQ), as it was hard to follow the previous match with that, but what can you do? I've heard they've added some writing and production from WWE, NJPW and the like and noticed sets, camera and sound have all really improved as of late. I'm still reeling from that Take####a/Ospreay classic. What an absolute master class of wrestling and storytelling. Love that Callis gets to be smug about thanking himself about booking that match, and is right. He's their Heyman.

Probably not going to happen, but what about Take####a and Ospreay entering the tag title tournament TK announced? I would imagine Fletcher makes more sense to tag with Ospreay, but who knows. Between this and the Sting match living up to the hype and then some, what a wicked event. Also, lastly, shoutout to the Rock, who is doing some of his best work ever on Friday. Nice to see the two big companies here stepping up.

Didn't catch the full PPV but looks like it ended up being a fun card.

As crazy as that Darby spot was to watch... I kind of hate it.

So many ways for that spot to go wrong and unlike some of the giant ladder onto table spots it felt like there was nothing to break/slow his fall.

Maybe I'm just getting older because I loved TLC matches when I was younger...but something about that just felt a bit oo risky.

I don't like it because of the never ending need to make the spot bigger and bigger. It won't stop until someone dies in the ring.

Looks like the lady at the front row got shards of glass on her too.

Yup. He deserves a break (pun intended) coming up here. In the back of my head, I thought he might end up screwing over Sting, but nice that they just had them win and be done with the feud. I think it makes the EVP Bucks a stronger heel, as they'll have chips on their shoulder and can take it out on the company as they see fit.

Miro has been fun in AEW. But deals with a lot of injuries which is too bad. But he is what he is, upper level mid-card so he should essentially be in the Scott Hall role in his career, but I think he believes he should be in the world title picture.

Miro is an excellent gatekeeper. He's a threat, and if you can overcome the threat, you deserve to be in the main event. If AEW embraced that role (and himself as well) I think they would both mutually benefit. Although Miro probably doesn't want that, he wants top-of-the-card status.

On a separate note, Darby had a funny moment on the mic after the PPV went off the air. Sting was talking in the ring saying his goodbyes, etc. and when Darby got on he said his bit to Sting, then, in a labored fashion, said "I'm going to go to the hospital real quick" and basically fell out of the ring lol. It was a total comedy moment in the building.

I thought the not-so-secret secret was that his 'injuries' tended to line up pretty nicely when he's asked to take a loss.

Rumours are what they are. There was a rumour that Starks was done his contract yesterday, conveniently before Stings final send off. But who knows, he won't find himself employed long if he is that big of a PITA.
