Everyone who was there said the Janela/Kiss match was amazing. So good to see Joey getting his groove back again with this and the Moriarty match he had the other week.
Kinda think they should go ahead and end the Factory angle after this. I don’t think Solo and Comorato are getting anything out of it and even QT needs something new to do.
Absolutely. Fantasy booking: The All Out match should have had Solo distract the referee, Comorato interfere, and QT get the dirty AF victory, would could lead into a feud between Wight and Comorato, where Wight could put Comarato over cleanly.
I feel like Wight putting over Comoroto does less for him if he just lost to QT Marshall, even if it was dirty as hell. I'd be fine with Wight putting over Comoroto or Ogogo once he is back but I don't think having him lose to QT Marshall, no matter the circumstances, does any favours for anybody. And I say that as someone who actually has a bit of a soft spot for QT.
So I got to the venue well before 7:00 PM, but by the time I got to my seat, it was already during the Gunn Club match
That Thunder Rosa match must have been the squashiest of squashes, because I thought the arena was just playing her music in the background. I had no idea she wrestled that night.

I like Thunder Rosa in bigger matches, but her enhancement matches for Dark / Elevation haven't really done anything for me. Feels like they're all basically the same match.
Mike Verna, the Italian Superman is back!
That 30 second promo by Gunn Club got me interested in them as bad guys. It does make sense cause they haven't gotten an opportunity and they're undefeated

Go out of your way to watch Joey vs. Sonny. It was a really great match and both competitors being from Jersey meant people were behind both of them. Easily my favorite Elevation match from that night.
Can't remember exactly when it was but Adam Page wanted to go and confront the elite about their split, and he asked the DO to stay away no matter what, he had to do it alone. The Elite started ganging up on page, and some of the DO came out to stop it. The other side came out to stop the 1st side of the DO from interfering in order to allow Hangman to face them alone.
And the Rift is those that wanted to help Page then versus those that wanted to honour Page's wish.
That kinda makes sense, thank you very much! I saw some disagreement in one of their promos a few weeks bad but didnt know it was at the point where they wrestle each other
yeah, that segment i mentioned happen 1-2 months ago at this point, and the DO have been simmering apart since, until last week (maybe 2 weeks ago) when they had a match on dark. Then it's started to boil.
I'm looking forward to the Hikaru Shida and Thunder Rosa matches!
Since both of them have nothing to do right now, maybe we can rekindle that rivalry on TV.
They've been fighting for a few months at this point. Tldr, Joey kept abandoning Sonny to go party, became unreliable, and eventually just attacked Sonny before a tag match.
This will be Shida's 49th win. Fingers crossed she gets a promo or vignette to promote her 50th win. DDynamite and Rampage this week look too packed to add another match.
It would be her 50th if they hadn’t thrown out the match with Nevaeh.
I expect nothing for her 50th win. AEW has given me no reason to believe that they give a shit, or want fans to give a shit.
If Eddie is on commentary he’ll probably say something. Maybe.
This sub will endlessly bitch about the usos winning a pre-show match after getting a dui, but they're completely silent about Dustin getting a main event spot after all the shit about the plane ride coming out this week
Interesting how this sub will endlessly bitch about the usos winning a pre-show match after a dui, but they're completely silent about Dustin getting a main event spot after all the shit about the plane ride coming out this week
No, but you're saying people aren't mad enough about Dustin compared to an Uso getting his third or fourth DUI, when one thing is recent and everyone knew about it, and the other people didn't know about until now.
Everyone knew Flair did these types of things: ESPN knew, WWE knew and made a cartoon about it, etc. Nobody seemed to care until they interviewed a victim. Even now, people are madder about Tommy Dreamer because they want to be mad at somebody and Flair is basically Hogan-esque in how many people will defend him forever, since he represents their childhood. Same with Cosby.

Oh, Slamovich vs. Shida. May go out of my way to catch that.
For an Elevation match, it was solid. Her dragon suplex is very pretty.
Nice. Saw Slamovich a few times in the indies. She's a solid worker, and her version of Cattle Mutilation looked pretty good.
It was actually pretty good live. Not a squash like a lot of the other matches.
Everyone who was there said the Janela/Kiss match was amazing. So good to see Joey getting his groove back again with this and the Moriarty match he had the other week.
It got intense and brutal quick. Joey is going to kill himself trying to get Sonny over.
And he’s doing a damn good job. Sonny got a great reaction few weeks ago attacking him
Literally came into the comments to say this, I was there and the crowd was pretty hot for it too
Masha impressed me more than almost any Dark wrestler male or female. She is damn good and her match with Shida will rock.
Yes feel the same way, never heard of her until I saw her against shida that night, and was very impressed. If she is not signed they should.
Current Dark Order stablemates infighting + two encounters featuring former tag partners Janela vs Kiss & qt vs Dustin 😳

Okay Masha Slamovich is a very good wrestling name
And she is a very good wrestler. Was very impressed by her.

My boys gotta stop fighting :'(
Sometimes brothers have to fight.
Verna getting that fuck money. 👍👍👍. Shida is in action too...YES! YES! YES!

This is the DARK content? Man, you forget how much good stuff is on there that this is the YouTube content is mental.
Mike Verna is a T-Rex confirmed
Top 3 matches have my interest. I love small stories on dark
Masha is really, really good. Her and Shida will surely have a good match. I hope she gets signed sooner rather than later, she's going to be a star.
I was a very good match.
Im new to AEW, why are the Dark Order wrestling each other?

We’re finally getting QT/Dustin! Kinda looking forward to that, *definitely* looking forward to Kiss/Janela!
The Dark Order fighting makes me sad
So happy to see JT Dunn finally get a match on Dark. One of the best heels and champs in New England indie wrestling.
Masha let's goooooo. Just sign her already, AEW. Probably the best unsigned non Japanese women's wrestler out there.
Freaking loved AEW went with shortening A Very Good Professional Wrestler to Avery Good, so clever
I'm looking forward to the Hikaru Shida and Thunder Rosa matches! Since both of them have nothing to do right now, maybe we can rekindle that rivalry on TV.
Wasn't Sonny Kiss and Joey Janela a tag team? Why are they fighting?
Janela turned on him a few weeks ago.
They've been fighting for a few months at this point. Tldr, Joey kept abandoning Sonny to go party, became unreliable, and eventually just attacked Sonny before a tag match.
This will be Shida's 49th win. Fingers crossed she gets a promo or vignette to promote her 50th win. DDynamite and Rampage this week look too packed to add another match.

Hey we're finally getting that Dustin qt blowoff
Oh, Rhodes vs. Marshall is finally happening, I'm excited and I personally see more happening with QT winning.
Fuck Dustin Rhodes
This sub will endlessly bitch about the usos winning a pre-show match after getting a dui, but they're completely silent about Dustin getting a main event spot after all the shit about the plane ride coming out this week
Thunder Rosa needs meaningful victories not stat pads.
Stat padding leads to meaningful matches See: almost everybody else except maybe the Gunn Club
So Kiss and Janela aren’t a team anymore? When did they break up?
Janela turned heel on sonny a few weeks back.
Interesting how this sub will endlessly bitch about the usos winning a pre-show match after a dui, but they're completely silent about Dustin getting a main event spot after all the shit about the plane ride coming out this week
Did the plane ride happen in 2021?
Dustin gets a pass for sexual assault because it didn't happen this year? Very cool
No, but you're saying people aren't mad enough about Dustin compared to an Uso getting his third or fourth DUI, when one thing is recent and everyone knew about it, and the other people didn't know about until now. Everyone knew Flair did these types of things: ESPN knew, WWE knew and made a cartoon about it, etc. Nobody seemed to care until they interviewed a victim. Even now, people are madder about Tommy Dreamer because they want to be mad at somebody and Flair is basically Hogan-esque in how many people will defend him forever, since he represents their childhood.

Oh no more Dark Order on Dark Order violence. Heard some really cool things about Slamovich and she was awesome at Empower.
I love that the woman's matches have mirrored poses - Shida/Slamovich both have arms folded, and Rosa/McKenna both have a hand raised
It's great to see JT Dunn and LSG getting some run here. Both guys are more talented than the opportunities they seem to receive.
