Wednesday Night Wrestling Wars Thread: A Broken Face-to-Face Edition
Posted on 3/25/20 at 5:56 pm
Posted on 3/25/20 at 5:56 pm
Quarantine-Mania continues to run wild over the wrestling world (and world in general) so both AEW Dynamite & NXT on USA both have no fans at their shows tonight. Dynamite is live while NXT is pre-taped, both have new matches for tonight
and speaking of... AEW officially announced on Monday that the New Orleans episode of Dynamite in May has been relocated away from the Keifer UNO Lakefront Arena
AEW Dynamite tonight is at Daily's Place in Jacksonville, Fla. in what has ostensibly become AEW's "home base"
The "Blood & Guts" match (War Games: The Match Beyond in Dusty's original vision, not WWE's new version) that was originally scheduled for tonight has been postponed until a later time (they should take this opportunity to do it at a PPV and give it a real, proper build)
2 of the men involved in B&G... Le Former Champion Chris Jericho & "Broken" Matt Hardy will have a face-to-face confrontation
Tony Schiavone & Cody are supposed to be your announce team tonight... but "The American Nightmare" is also scheduled for a match against Jimmy Havoc during the show (AEW had apparently sent out a drinking game poking fun at some of Cody's talking habits but I can't find the image currently)
For the first time ever... the Mega Campeonato AAA (AAA Mega Championship) will be on the line in AEW as Kenny Omega defends the Mexican company's top belt against the Spanish God Sammy Guevara
The Exalted One has a message for all members of the Dark Order... including G The Tiger Fan
and speaking of The Exalted One... Brodie Lee will make his AEW in-ring debut against... someone... tonight
also... Jake Hager is supposed to be in action as well
Good Ole JR will be live tweeting the show at his official twitter handle @JRsBBQ
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NXT on USA comes from an empty WWE Performance Center in Orlando, Fla.
Triple H will be on the show for... reasons
Matt Riddle takes on Roderick Strong
Adam Cole will grace us with a glorious message from the UDE
2 women's ladder match qualifying matches... Candice LeRae vs. Kayden Carter & Xia Li vs. Aliyah (I'm sure G will make very mean coronavirus jokes about Xia
)
Tyler Breeze vs. Austin Theory
Will Tommaso Ciampa & Johnny Gargano leave the building in 1 piece or will they try to trash the place again?
Not sure if next week's NXT on USA episode will essentially be what TakeOver: Tampa Bay was going to be since the show was cancelled... perhaps that's what HHH will talk about
Also... still not sure how FWL will be handled since Wrestlemania is being taped today & tomorrow... esp. with both the Undertaker/AJ Styles & "Fiend" Bray Wyatt/John Cena matches being "theatrical-style" matches shot in a warehouse on what amounts to more of a movie set instead of a wrestling ring
for your troubles... here's a pic of Aliyah

2 Wrestlemania notes
the reason Andrade is now in a Raw Tag Title match at 'Mania instead of defending his US Title is due to Rey Mysterio going into quarantine... thus cancelling the proposed Mysterio/Andrade US Title match
Also... Dana Brooke has gone into quarantine as well... so she is out of the 6-pack challenge for the SD Women's Championship at 'Mania... so far a replacement has not been announced

JR is at home live tweeting this show. I guess they listened to the people complaining about having these old guys on the show.

Cody kisses the ring announcer and shakes the hand of the referee
THAT'S NOT SOCIAL DISTANCING, CODY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The love the new hard camera positioning. Really helps limit the "empty arena" feel. Good job coming up with it AEW.

if you watch indie wrestling (like... say... ROH or IMPACT... companies that have money for a stage but don't run "big" arenas)...that's the way they commonly set it up... so it's not a new camera angle at all
and not shocking that AEW went to it before WWE did

I'm kinda surprised at how weak Omega feels as an analyst... I know it's completely different from anything he's ever done so far but if he wants to do that more often he needs to improve greatly

never would've made a Darby Allin/Sting comparison... interesting take by Cody
Posted on 3/25/20 at 7:28 pm to rt3
I guess they can't compare him to Jeff Hardy, which seems more appropriate.
Posted on 3/25/20 at 7:30 pm to Brosef Stalin
Cody definitely feels more ready for an analyst role
he just talking about bringing "UK style" in... I would love to see more "British Strong Style" in US wrestling
ETA: having more William Regal-types around would be good for wrestling

Allin's not a high-flyer like Jeff... but if you're talking about just the counter-culture look... then sure I'll go with you there

Cody's referenced both Sting & Babydoll in this match
the early 90s run through Cody's blood

They had a bunch of local indy guys on Dark last night. It was their way of giving back to the indies. I guess we'll be seeing more of that.
