As a big Rey Mysterio fan, and with Brian bringing him up, the differences between Rey and the Bucks are endless. Rey was booked as the ultimate underdog and has been one of the biggest babyfaces of the last 20+ years. When you watch Rey, you know you're watching the GMOAT. If you watch 1 Bucks match, then you've seen them all. And when you really get down to it, Rey Mysterio is such a cooler name than Matt and Nick Jackson ffs. Apologies for the rant.

this match sucked man AEW'S product is atrocious how many people tuned out of dynamite after reruns of the big bang theory this isn't good television i mean it never was while WWE is on fire AEW just gives us bad and unfunny comedy and embarrassing representation of women's wrestling no wonder why people have stopped watching AEW and for good reason.

Strickland should quit AEW if he's getting paid less and doing what he did on this show, Jesus... What the hell, a performance of a decade... I was scared Will broke his back before that I was scared Strickland blew his knees...

The profound sadness that corny had to see this version of Okada that the bucks want to latch on to for legitimacy rather than the 2016 version that was genuinely the best active pro wrestler walking the earth,

Agreed. I don't watch much NJPW but Okada and Tanahashi were always worth checking out. It's sad to see them reduced to this.

The ducking down on the side of the ring also happens on WWE. I'm not sure about any other promotions. I see wrestlers get knocked off the edge of the apron and stay down for five to ten minutes yet when they get hit with a finishing move and get up on a two count.

Man I remember a few years ago Naito and Tanahashi were big deals and amazing but man they looked beat up now. Caster and Bowens have potential no wonder they were talent that actually listened to punk. Also with Rey hes should be he always looked in shape and like an athlete which made it somewhat easier to buy into him beating bigger guys

@12012channel Ай бұрын

I feel bad for Naito. When he was peak Naito they kept giving the main event spot to someone else like Omega. Now they make him the guy once he kind of past his prime.

Anthony Bowens has the talent and charisma to do more than be part of a one note comedy tag team. Max Caster can’t wrestle his way out of a paper bag and would do better as a rapping manager.

Shinsuke Nakamura is booked like 1998 Steve Austin compared to OKody and Tanahashi.
