@Link41x Yeah but if you look Flair was in every incarnation of the Four Horsemen. Even pseudo ones like Evolution and Fortune. Also I believe Four Horsemen name rights belong to WWE.

Yeah loved the Moxley/Allen match. My biggest OMG moment was the return of Easy E to TNT!!!

Due to a very odd glitch on BR Lives website, I've now seen every AEW PPV for free.

@Link41x Even the newest one? I know for awhile AEW was offering all their old PPVs ones from last year and such for free but I thought they ended that. Either they did and started up again or never ended it to begin with.

I am really liking what they are doing with Brodie Lee character in AEW. I can't wait to see what happens with the Dark Order and The Nitemare Family.

Mr. Brodie Lee was the right person to drop the title to. I also think we'll see the tag titles change as well.

@Link41x Without a doubt on both subjects. I always thought Brodie Lee was a great singles competitor, which made it aggervating to watch him in WWE. Don't get me wrong he I enjoyed him as part of the Wyatt family but after he left they should have given him a better singles run.

As for the tag titles yeah I believe Omega and Page will drop them to FTR and from there the story will will be about the internal problems with the Elite. Page being kicked out of the Elite and what follows that and possibly a heel turn for Kenny.

I don't expect Moxley to lose his title at All Out nor do I expect Shida to lose hers. I honestly wish they would work on bringing the woman's division up to the same level as say the tag team division but at the same time I know that alot of the women are either injured (Britt Baker, Kris Statlander) or stuck somewhere due to the pandemic (Riho, Emi Sakurai) and it is what it is but right now it just seems flat.

So big news coming out of the wrestling world today, Brock Lesnar is no longer under contract with the WWE. This is very interesting indeed as of right now nobody seems to know what he's doing. The main rumor is of course he's going to be going back to UFC but others are saying he might be going to AEW, NWA or even back to New Japan.

I am wondering if he will be making an appearance at All Out her in a few weeks. Will be awesome if he does though it would be kinda odd without Paul Haymen.

I can't wait to see the matches that come out of this NWA/AEW partnership. Thunder Rosa vs Hikaru Shida will be great!

@Tasuki I'd be surprised if New Japan were interested in Brock after he legit stole their title lol

@Link41x I don't think it's a true partnership in the sense of something like ECW/WWE had in the 90s. I think its mainly for the Woman's Championship since right now any of the AEW woman who are on the same level as Shida are injured or stuck in other countries due to COVID. I mean don't get me wrong ones like Penelope Ford, Big Swol, are great but not on the same level as Shida. I am actually surprised that they haven't done Nyla Rose's rematch yet but maybe I missed something about her. But yeah from what I have read Tony Khan reached out to Billy Corgan and asked if he could borrow Thunder Rosa much like they borrowed Jeff Cobb a few months ago from RoH.

Tony Khan and Cody have stated that they don't mind if other wrestlers from other promotions want to do a one night thing he even extended it to WWE if Vince would go for that sort of thing. Heck if you remember Jericho put up a match for the AEW Championship back at last year's Wrestle Kingdom again Tanahashi if Tanahashi beat him. It's why also Jon Moxley was the New Japan US Champ for awhile.

@Wargoose He never stole their title. He won it and there was some controversy over it which is why they created a new one.

Ordered All Out as well, it's going to be a great show. Got me a couple pizzas and a side of hot wings for the event. It's great to be excited for a PPV again.

@Link41x So my thoughts on All Out. I will begin with the Tag Team Title match. I thought it was really good but some spots just seem to slow down way to much. Also I feel that they were stretching it out to fill in the time slot for the PPV due to the Hardy/Guevara match. Speaking of that, I was hyped for this match and will be honest was disappointed how it went off but that's understandable. With that said I do hope Matt Hardy isn't hurt too bad and we see him come back very soon.

The Casino Battle Royale Match was good but a bit predictable especially when it came down to the final four. I was hoping Darby Allen would win but at the same time it was expected him not to win in order to keep up the storyline with him and Team Tazz.

The woman's championship match was terrific probably my favorite of the night. Again it was predictable on who would win (I couldn't see them giving the title belt to a worker for a competing company) but both women were really good and worked with each really well. I do hope they do more of these type of matches with other companies. One match I wanted to see was Nyla Rose vs Jordynne Grace when they were both champions of their companies.

The AEW Championship match was good too and I am sure MJF will get his day soon enough. Of everyone in AEW I can see him having a long successful career due to how good he is now. In alot of ways he reminds me of Randy Orton when he started.

I enjoyed this PPV alot. I know I am missing a few matches but it's late now. I can't wait to see what develops from this show.

All good points. I was also very concerned with Matt Hardy after that table spot. Clearly not alot of love for Hangman Page after that title match. I was hoping to have the cleaner back after that match ended and thought that Kenny was just gonna let him have it with that table.

@Link41x I have a feeling we won't have to wait to long to see the cleaner! I believe that was one reason they dropped the tag titles.

@Tasuki Couldn't agree more. I was just hoping to see the heel turn right then and there

So update on Matt Hardy. According to his wife's twitter he did indeed have a concussion but otherwise he's ok. I guess AEW is getting alot of complaints for keeping the match going even after the referee threw up the X twice. Basically alot of people said the match should have been thrown out. Part of me can't help but think that it was more Matt's choice to finish the match and he just ignored the authorities. Thankfully though he seems alright for the most part.
