AEW World's End is TONIGHT The Death Riders did this to Darby Allin



The COUNTDOWN



"The fans have gIven up"...that's what he said here

What I saw of it was a decent PPV. I've kind of lost interest in AEW. I watch Dynamite sometimes. Rampage got cancelled. And since Collision is usually recorded early I just check the spoilers. There really isn't much interesting storyline wise with the men. The Death Rider stuff is ok, but it doesn't make real sense what the point is of it. I don't know, it seems to be kind of languishing at the moment.

It's amazing how much people wanted change, they got change and now look Just as the video I posted, he said the fans have given up, you can never please them. That's unreal that Rampage was cancelled, with a company with so much money and so fourth, who would think that this would happen In the 90s, this wasn't even a thought, shows you how things have really changed. Well really, there is such lack of creativity there in that storyline. Like I have said before here, TNA & NXT have crossed-over for months and I've posted a lot of it yet there has been no explanation as to why this happen and it seems like it was nothing special for the public, such a different from 90s much like a lot of things in this modern era...all of that stuff about Shane-O-Mac and nothing has happen yet. I think that would have really boosted AEW but like WWE when the opportunity arises, the trigger is never pulled I guess more & more people is watching WWE I mean many of the talent that was in AEW is there now plus HHH is saying after every PLE how records are broken and so forth. Amzing that to see Raw now, you gotta get Netflix now...see My post about that in the WWE Topic.

Here's this

The problem with Rampage was it basically became Sunday Night Heat. It's hard to believe they debuted CM Punk on a live episode of Rampage. But since he left, and even before that really, it's become more of a lower card show with a lot of squash matches and matches of little import. Kind of like Battle of the Belts. There has been how many shows now? 12. And in those 12 shows a title has changed hands 3 times (Sammy Guevara won the TNT on both the first and second show, and Dustin Rhodes with the Von Erichs won the ROH Trios Titles at some point of which no one really cares about). They could've done more to push these shows but they haven't Rampage was almost always taped after Dynamite giving no surprises and the crowds were usually tired. When we went to Dynamite a couple years ago, there was over an hour or wrestling for the internet show before Dynamite, then a two-hour Dynamite, and then Rampage. By the time they got to the main event of Rampage, which was Dax vs Claudio, it was well after 11 (the first match of the night was about 6:30 or so), half the people had left, and I was just wishing the match would end so we could go home. And it was a loooooong match. And it felt even longer because of how many hours we'd already been there. And the sad part is it was probably a really well-wrestled match but at that point I think most people just wanted the show to be over. A taped Rampage was usually the 4th or 5th hour of a night, so the crowd sounded indifferent because I'm sure they were exhausted by then.

But they could've done more with Rampage. They could've made it exclusively ROH. That wouldn't have gotten me to watch, but maybe it would've helped. I always thought they should've tried an all-female show. There are so many women there that barely get a spotlight that an hour show for just the women would've been something new that even the WWE or TNA hadn't tried. You could've had a women's title match every week, added women's tag titles, etc. But Rampage is gone now so none of that matters and the women just get one match every week at 9:15 on Wednesday, lol.

Yeah, remember what I posted in My Grandma's Tribute That Rampage with CM Pun has always been so bitter sweet with Me because that was THE LAST wrestling she ever saw before she fell so that was a very memorable show for bad reasons and stuff like that you never ever forget Now, I thought the Rhodes & Von Erich thing was good, shame how the coolest things like that aren't liked that much I mean we both talked about the Von Erichs and I recall how you were disappointed how they didn't focus on Kevin Now it's different with Me. As a person who's only been to one WWF House Show in 91, I would love go an spend hours at an event regardless who wins and all that. When I used to go to the Cardinals Ballgames, there was many games that went extra innings and I'd hope they last as long as possible and sometimes they would, that one Brewers game was something else...I loved the lengthy games because I just loved the experience. I mean with a lot of people that go to wrestling events don't do it all the time yet they there are you'd thin they do every week. If I'd pay all that money, I would want to make every cent count. AEW should have never cancelled Dark. That was a perfect show for everybody to tuneup to get exposure and so forth. Rampage should have been as huge as Dynamite. Collision should be the same and yes, ROH should have their own show too and I'm not talking about the pay $9.99 a month thing. As for the women, yes, TK just doesn't know how to handle the division. IMO, the women wrestling is much funner than the men's. The women in WWE & NXT this past year alone has been be really exciting. That's a great idea for a women's show PB, too bad nobody gave that a go yet. That's like what I said before, the fans are better at knowing how things show be done whether it's it's wrestling, movies, whatever but of course the heads never listen
