You don't have to climb Mount Everest if you injure yourself before the trip... Darby is insane.
- He's going to get dragged up the mountain by a Sherpa at this rate
  
  So like everyone else then.
- injuring yourself before climbing mount everest is to darby like packing a carry-on bag is to most people
Wardlow trying to go full Darby. Never go full Darby.
- He's making me pay attention at least, which has been hard in a Wardlow match for a while!
Adam being a NERRRDDD!
Didn't expect her to debut at the start
- They've been edging us enough, they knew the release was needed lmao.
  
  Edit: Will need to hear the theme isolated to make a decision but I am at least glad they didn't bring in that goddamned dumb-as-shit-but-somehow-still-catchy 'money....money....money' theme she had in Japan lol.
Best Friends vs Dark Order can be injected directly into my veins
- Always!
C'mon, Mercedes!! I've missed you!!
- this obviously means sasha is going to be diane on a cheers reboot
Poor Wardlow never gonna make it at this rate.
Are people talking about restoring the feeling, bruv?
The split of the Bang Bang Scissor Gang has begun

edit: Forget begun it's completely happened!
- The Jay/Billy tension finally seem resolved but once Jay fully looked bought in, the end has to be near
I liked Wardlow putting his hand through the ropes but not finding them
I wonder who her first feud is, or is she going for the title straight away...
- I have a feeling we'll find out in the main event. I can't think of why else Riho vs Willow is the main event.
- Looks like revenge on Willow
  
  I'm down for that, let her get established and Timeless Toni/Mariah can cook a little bit longer
Poor Hook :(
- He's getting the Judas Effect
CE no.
Now that's some battle gear!
god i love heel okada
- Are you besties with him? If not call him by his full ass passport name
  
  "the cleaner" kenny okada :3
- Forcing him to sing happy birthday, I just can't bahah
  
  They should have aired the whole song!
Wardog did his homework!
Is Hook going to have to sign a NDA?
Sometimes I look up and see Wardlow in his singlet and my mind has WCW flashbacks to Wrath.
- Love me some Wrath!
Well, I was expecting Mercedes to be going against Willow, but with this attack I guess she's saving her.
- everyone fears riho
No regard for the body, bruv.

Darby Allen
Got that DDP wrap
i'm ready for the big debut of the dropkick murphys
- Let's go Murphies!
They have pinned my liege!!!
juicebox wasn't part of the darby attack because he's wholesome and pure
tag team champions c-e-riho just makes sense think about it
- I've thought about it and I like it
Permanently Deleted
- I don't know if it was shown or addressed during Dynamite (just starting the episode now), but according to the ROH taping spoilers I just eyed, he also didn't come alone! 👀
  
  @GeekFTW YES thats right 😉 👍
I'd find it insanely funny if she didn't debut tonight after all of the teasing that's happened and they instead save it for Destiny or whatever the next PPV is.

If she doesn't show up tonight I'll be shocked, they've all but announced it.
I might be completely wrong but Mercedes' debut is no where as big as CM Punk.

Like I had no idea about the CEO chant or whatever.
- Cm Punk is like the furthest thing from my mind, I guess I can see some parallels though
  
  I feel like this was trying to emulate that buzz and feel. Instead I got the most annoying forced song/chant.
Big Business getting right to it!
😂😂😂 All of The Elite are smug douches
Never expected Bo$$ton to be for corpos
Nicholas is such a hothead
- He just wants some respect!
If Adam Cole doesn't actually have a plan for when Wardlow refuses then he's more delusional than I thought
- The devil is always two steps ahead
😂 Why would you try to fist bump someone as miserable as Pac
- For the lulz?
I'm shocked Billy would provoke Jay like this. Who can blame Jay for retaliating as necessary?
- The man put bad ass in his name and thinks he can do whatever!
Wtf am I supposed to like Okada this much or is he that good
- Yes, also yes.
Nah because fuck Darby in particular
That's a gnarly armpit
Just gonna dance in this ring all alone lol
Riho is actually a battering ram. She opens with power moves and just counters you until she starts hitting then
just finished watching; as someone who loves the aew women's division, i give tony all the props in the world for not only letting the women main event but also ending the show with a big feud not involving toni (nothing against toni i just like that other women are getting storylines too besides the world champion!)
- They need multiple stories so bad and we're finally getting some!
Solid show, but I'm very worried for Hook as I don't feel he has a strong enough character to not get ripped apart by the Jericho Suck Vortex.
- Not wrong.
