All Elite Wrestling

Any fans of AEW out there? We watch regularly in our household. Watching Collision as we speak! Thought we could have a thread here. :victory_hand:

I’m a lapsed fan but watched the first two years pretty non-stop. I feel like I’ve missed a lot. I’m a little upset it doesn’t seem to be troubling WWE ratings-wise and read there was a bit of a slump where they lost some good people (Ethan Page and Ricky Starks) but maybe now is just as good as ever to jump back?

I would def go back and check out some of what they did with Timeless Toni Storm. Maybe their greatest character and storylines they ever had.

And rivaling that on the men’s side was the character and storylines of Hangman Adam Page. Whether it was his feud with Swerve Strickland or Jon Moxley they both were incredible.

I can’t say they have felt the loss of Ethan Page or Ricky Starks even tho I quite liked them both. The biggest challenge they had was with the fallout of the CM Punk stuff but yeah they fully recovered thanks to these two storylines I believe. As well as an amazing roster down the card. I would say since the big blowoffs of those storylines the past few months it hasn’t been as high as it was leading up to them but I am excited to see where they go next!

I am 100% a sicko. Been watching since the beginning, and been to a few shows live. They’ve been on an incredible roll lately.

Sweet! I’ve been to some shows myself. What have you gone to?

A couple of Dynamites in Pittsburgh. First one was pretty early in their run, I think it was like the 4th or 5th ever Dynamite and the 2nd show was also the Rampage taping with the famous Christian Cage/Omega TNA title switch. Both shows were great.

Absolutely adore Toni Storm and Hangman, truly fantastic figures in modern wrestling. I don’t watch religiously, but when I miss episodes I still try to go back and watch their matches.

The wife and I are huge fans but don’t get to watch as much as we used to after having kids. We followed the Elite over from NJPW. We went to the first Double or Nothing and first All Out.

Oh I forgot to mention, I was also at the first All In, which is now retroactively AEW?

I would think so since it was on ROH Honor Club and then Tony bought ROH.

Yes! watch both shows every week on Triller, went to both All In Wembley. I think AEW might be the most consistently good it’s ever been, right now.

Oooo how was the Wembly show live? Those were so good!

they were incredible!
The first one we were down on the floor and the experience was a lot better there than the next year we were in the normal stadium seats further away.
The noise was so amazing - I’ve been to Wembley for other sports but the pop for the main event (both years) was like nothing else.
