Last thread has well over 10,000 replies. Its body is breaking down like The Undertaker's. Seeing as we might have crossed the threshold into a new era in the business, here's a fresh new thread.

Janela and Allin are both deathmatch guys, Juice Robinson has improved a billion percent in the last couple years and Pentagon is one of the best wrestlers out there.
Big assumption is him and Omega at All Out as well... [Reply]

Shane has 0 say over creative, it'll be H and honestly anyone who is not 80 could help. Vince is just old and out of touch and has no concept of what is in anymore.
Triple H grew up as a fan of the NWA and if you look at what his character was and the era he comes from its hard for me to think it would at least improve some. [Reply]

All Out will be the PPV to launch them into the tv deal so I expect some pretty big matches. Page and Jericho will definitely be one and Omega vs Moxley makes perfect sense. It also wouldn't surprise me if they crowned tag champs and a womans champ as well. I hope Marty Scurll is in AEW by then but ROH would be smart to keep him very happy and under contract there.

That may not count streaming purchases on BR Live so the overall numbers could be even better. It is a lot more than they got for All In. I still hope they find a different medium than the old school cable/satellite PPV but it's encouraging that a lot of people paid the high price and they delivered with a damn good show. [Reply]
I think they should not expect a number like that consistently though, they built that show for 6 months, there are people that won't pay that every month. [Reply]
Jon Moxley is now the IWGP US Champ. He beat Juice Robinson in a fantastic match. It could be an interesting summer for Mox over in Japan. He damn well better face both Suzuki and Ishii. [Reply]
