Transcribe →Joy is stored in the tassels | AEW Collision 21 & Dynamite 25 February recap
Feb 2801:26:15Tap to summarizeOkay, a “One Way No Disqualification Match” stipulation is funny, you’ve gotta give Max points for that.

Transcribe →Wife Guy Adam Page | AEW Grand Slam Australia & Dynamite 18 February recap
Feb 2101:34:21Tap to summarizeAre we really going to see Hangman send himself to Cody Island? This week’s AEW shows had us worried that we were going to see bad things happen to our faves, but we didn’t see that one coming… (00:00:00) News - Tony Khan has signed new women, so will we see more time for women’s matches on the telly? (00:04:42) We didn’t need to worry, Orange Cassidy did not get his head shaved in the Hair vs Hair match at Grand Slam (00:14:19) There’s lots of people in the Conglomeration… like Ishii! (00:17:34) Kyle Fletcher doesn’t need to go this hard, we’ll still love him (especially if he shows us his wardrobe) (00:22:52) Moxley vs the Don Callis Family, with a little wander off-schedule to consider a potential Aussie Open reunion (00:28:07) Babes of Wrath won in Australia, of course, because wrestlers should be allowed to win in their hometowns, why would anyone book otherwise?

(00:44:32) Briefly, everything else: the Brawling Birds made their TV in-ring debut, there was a TBS title four-way (00:47:26) It’s gonna be Hangman vs MJF at Revolution, but wtf is this stip?!

Thekla is the women’s world champion now (00:19:17) Calling the Brawling Birds to deal with our spider problem (00:21:33) Does AEW struggle to book babyface champions? Do we all love a cool heel too much? We’re part of the problem, honestly. Also we got into whether MJF wants to go to WWE and where Chris Jericho is going to end up (00:30:23) And new! Kyle Fletcher is the TNT champion again. Have there ever been two title changes on a standard episode of Dynamite before? (00:41:09) FTR are gonna fight the Young Bucks. Goddammit. (00:50:46) We think we’ve fixed Hook’s gimmick. Call us, Tony Khan! (00:58:30) Is Roddy a secret Death Rider? Should we be preparing ourselves for a bald Orange Cassidy? And… those were extensions that got cut out of Mina’s hair, right? (01:06:52) Is it time AEW got its own streaming service? We would pay to be able to watch this House Rules show tbh (01:09:54) We survived a parking lot brawl, but there might’ve been too many men involved (01:12:48) The men’s title picture gives us the HEEBIE JEEBIES!
