Just finished it, but Dynasty was a hell of a show! Both Pre-Show title defenses rocked, the Tag Match with the Bucks were amazing, and the Casino Gauntlet was exactly what I hoped! Gabe's unfortunate injury was the only low point of the PPV for me, but they recovered pretty well!
#ShutUpTama
#ShutUpTama
Finally got around to finishing Revolution, and besides the obvious terrible part, the rest of the matches were really good! The Lucha chain of the Trios into Andrade was probably the highlight of the show for me, but Mox v Takeshita, and the 2 out of 3 Falls match were other standouts!
#ShutUpTama
What a fucking show AEW Grand Slam was, I love Brody and everything he stands for, and I was genuinely getting a bit teary seeing Bandido cheering him on. It was an amazing main event that capped off an even more amazing show! Can't wait to see what Brodido does next~
#ShutUpTama
Having been a big fan of early Black and Gold NXT back in MS/HS, it's been a joy seeing Ciampa over in AEW! That match was absolutely (Psycho) killer, and it's amazing to see him winning gold so early! The tease with Fletcher was so good too, can't wait to see the eventual match~
#ShutUpTama
What an amazing week it was with Maximum Carnage! For Dynamite, Bandido v MJF was a hell of a match, Bryan Keith and Big Bill have finally started wiping the Jericho goo off of em, the 4 way showed off just how good AEW is at Tornado/Gauntlet matches, and Brody is great as always!
1/2
#ShutUpTama
I think enough time has passed about it. Man, do I wish Tanahashi had knees that matched his love of Pro-Wrestling. He got to choose his own way out though, even managing to bring 3 different flavours of "Banned from NJPW" wrestlers to celebrate his retirement!
We love you, Ace~
#ShutUpTama
I love Dalton Castle. I usually try and use up all the characters in a post, but that's all, send post.
#ShutUpTama
OMG WILLOW HI!!! I was really rooting for her to retain the TBS championship the first time, but with 2 consecutive wins against Mercedes, I'm really happy to see her as a double champion now! Hashing it out with Statlander was real nice to see, a heartwarming end to AEW's 2025~
#ShutUpTama
World's End was a blast! The C2s ending was a genuine surprise to me, and I'm excited to see the fallout of Okada's actions towards the Family, and losing the belt! The Women's matches were spectacular too, and Toni made that Mixed Nuts match to be one of the most fun matches I've seen~
#ShutUpTama
I had a feeling that these 4 would end up in the Semis for the C2 (Though, I thought it'd be Claudio over Mox) at the start. Despite that, this tournament was a rollercoaster and every match was amazing! Bummed about not seeing either member of JetSpeed, but they had an amazing showing~
#ShutUpTama
I've been super busy so I hadn't found the time to talk about last week, but I'm really glad that the Gold League ended up being a spotlight on JetSpeed! The C2 has always been a place for the talent to show off, but Knight and Speedball have really taken that chance and jumped with it~
#ShutUpTama
BABES OF WRATH!!! I had a feeling someone from their bracket was winning the entire thing, but I'm so happy they ended up winning! (It was nice hearing about AEW Dark again~) Fletcher vs Speedball was easily MOTN though! a surprise win and an Ultima Weapon, what more could I ask for!
#ShutUpTama
Not directly graps related this time, but it is a bit sad to see Hey-EW! go. It's given me a whole lotta laughs and fun insights that either make me love wrestlers, or fall in love more with the ones I already did! (I liked it enough to even steal the name for my WoLQotD tag!)
#ShutUpTama
Final Battle was crazy, with my highlight being Ricochet's yelps as Dalton gator rolls the living daylights out of him~ Dynamite and Collision were great as well! The C2 really is the best time of year, and the Kevin Knight and the Takeshita matches especially were amazing!
#ShutUpTama
I knew my hopes in the C2 wouldn't be dashed, because the opening matches have already been amazing! While the top names continue their match streak, I wanna especially highlight JetSpeed and Dorada for their contributions, especially Knight v Darby which is probably the best one yet!
#ShutUpTama
With the C2 entrants being announced, I'm even more hyped for it than I was before! While I'm sure 3/4 of the final slots will probably involve the Family, I really don't know who the second Blue League finalist is gonna be! I cannot wait to see each and every matchup of the tournament~
#ShutUpTama
Outside the main event situation, I'm really happy about the Elite finally reuniting! KOR continues to be a beast, and PAC is as brutal as ever~ I'm super intrigued by where the C2 is heading, and the Women's Tag Tournament scene has been going absolutely crazy too!
[2/2]
#ShutUpTama
I think my thoughts have stabilized on Full Gear, and I really enjoyed it~ I went into it thinking I knew how most of the matches were going to end, and I was right, up until the main event sucker-punched me! I'm really excited to see where the championship scene is headed~
[1/2]
#ShutUpTama
Even with that spicy moment near the end, Dorada (II) continues to blow me away! It's hard to believe he's only been wrestling for 4 years, but he's clearly got a golden future ahead of him! Real pumped for the trios match too, though, I'm just excited for Full Gear in general~
#ShutUpTama
I realized I never made a post about it, but Blood & Guts was an amazing time! As bummed as I am about the lack of a Royal Rampage, if it meant getting that Women's Blood & Guts match instead, then I don't mind! Big ups for O'Reilly getting to shine too, I love that silly man so much
#ShutUpTama
Hey-EW! endeared him to me already, but that match against Kyle Fletcher has me going all in on Ace Austin! Combined with the surprise win against FTR, I'm really happy the Bang Bang Gang had an amazing day as a fan of theirs!
(Plus he's a theatre kid, I gotta support him)
#ShutUpTama
It surprises me seeing Jurassic Express back in the ring, that they haven't been teaming for a couple of years! JetSpeed continues to be a delight to watch as well. I'm torn on where the belts are gonna be going leading to Full Gear, but that four way on Dynamite is going to be a treat~
#ShutUpTama
I love tag-wrestling, so I'm really pumped for the women's tag tournament! I genuinely don't know who's going to win, as I can see almost every team winning the entire thing, but I certainly have my favourites with Willow or Hayter's team~
#ShutUpTama
I think the tag title match was my personal match of the night. Bandido doubling the Rainmaker to pass it to the next guy, continually mounting tensions between Okada and Takeshita, Brody being the heart of the team this match, and capped off with the macarena~
"NEVER STOP FIGHTING!"
#ShutUpTama
I think my thoughts have stabilized over Wrestledream after a day, and I think I still overall enjoyed myself! The night was kinda marred by technical difficulties, especially near the end, but both Tag Matches and Stat v. Storm had some amazing feel good moments as a long time fan~
#ShutUpTama
Really amped for Wrestledream! All 4 Title bouts seem amazing, I'm ready to be extremely uncomfortable during Mox vs Darby. I could watch Hayter forever, I cannot wait for the Hurt Syndicate to play Volleyball with Ricochet, and I'm overjoyed at Jurassic Express being back~
#ShutUpTama
I've been a huge fan of Takeshita since his Cinnabon Era, and I really hope Wrestledream is when the mutiny happens because I wanna cheer for him ethically so bad.
Fun Fact: Takeshita's been the reference model for nearly all of my German Suplex poses!
#ShutUpTama
That should be all the yapping done! I've been following AEW since Year 2, and that montage they played at the start gave me the biggest smile on my face. So many memories, good and bad, rushing back. Here's to 6 more
For now, I must bid you adieu, Goodbye, and Good Night, BANG!
[5/5]
#ShutUpTama
This really is Wheeler Yuta and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day. Darby continues to be the greatest threat to Darby. Stat continues to excel in hardcore matches. Why did the camera guy zoom in on Marina's feet with the tacks. PAC is back and is as exciting as ever!
[4/5]
#ShutUpTama
GOA has grown a lot more on me recently! Ricochet's laugh is going to haunt me. Hurt Syndicate in a street fight is going to be a delightful amount of violence. I'm glad Statlander is an Alien again, and I'm hoping next week is when they pull the trigger on the Takeshita turn.
[3/??]
