🎧 Listen to the full episode on Getting Over Wrestling Podcast
Ronda Rousey AEW status
Ronda Rousey never signed with AEW, and there are no plans for her with the company. She literally just showed up at Revolution to create a moment.
AEW creative criticism
Three of 14 matches this week were storyline relevant. Let me say that one more time. Three of 14. 21%. This is what people mean when they say AEW doesn't tell stories.
AEW Dynasty plans
This puts Omega on a collision course with MJF for Dynasty. And that's a particularly intriguing match because we all assume the winner is going to go on to face Will Ospreay at All In.
AEW Dynamite review
Omega has slowed down dramatically over the years, but the dude can still go. The EVP stipulation here proved to be entirely unnecessary, as was naming Swerve number one contender out of nowhere.
AEW storyline continuity
It's a bit tough to buy into this feud [Moxley vs. Ospreay] considering Mox did what he did to Ospreay out of nowhere to write him off months ago.
Sol Ruca development
NXT has done Sol Ruca a bit dirty the last 18 months by not putting her in the ring with a mic in her hand more frequently. She's not as confident as she should be cutting a promo.
NXT roster status
I think the crowbar shot was to write this guy [Cutler James] off. I think he's gone. I don't know that. It's just the inkling I'm getting from what I'm seeing on TV.
NXT promo segment
Zarya outclassed Sol to a significant degree on the mic. She was more poised, more confident, more composed, more logical, and clearer as a speaker.
Leo Rush gimmick
I would be floored if this works. By the way, bye-bye crew. The other two random members you have, go ahead and do nothing now. Get relegated to Ring of Honor.
NXT booking criticism
I cannot remember a gauntlet match with timed entrance like this. A gauntlet by definition requires each match to be completed before another competitor joins.
