Watch AEW Dynamite 4/10/24 10th April 2024 Live Online

These EVP Buck guys are out of control. They teased showing this footage for a week, and clearly refused to show the commentary team… did you see how Schiavone looked so mad? I bet you there was tears under the masked guys thing! It’s like they don’t have any respect for their company!

WBD maybe came out and said they were happy with AEW, but that’s obviously a lie! Pretty sure that was exactly like WCW 2001… it was like the Finger Poke of Death! (am I using that right? I was born in 2008).

I really really was a huge fan of AEW but now I’ve gotta say, I’m pretty sure they’re dying.

petty bullshit was a big turn off however. Hate the whole drama stuff, this isn’t the 90’s anymore just let bygones be bygones. Both WWE and AEW can coexist just fine and continue to prove so, but the one sided rivalry between them is just so petty. That Triple H comment was just dumb.

is dying clearly don’t watch week to week and just want there downfall. Just go and watch WWE enjoy your mediocre RAW and Smackdowns and stop ruining others enjoyment of AEW

used as an angle for Swerve vs Joe was predictable but sad after an all timer promo from Dustin last week. I’m getting real sick of supporting this company when it’s clear they don’t know what theyre doing or what’s going to be good. Not the worst dynamite but bad dynamite’s happen and that’s easily excusable but a dynamite that actively makes me wanna stop watching aew. After a bad wrestlemania idk if modern mainstream wrestling is for me.

It’s insane to think AEW is going into a death spiral because they showed the footage. I also think it’s insane though to think that did anything but hurt their reputation though. You’d think after the lukewarm reaction to the Copeland promo last week, they’d realize their own audience just wants to watch a wrestling show. They don’t need you to snipe at a guy who you fired months ago or take shots at a Triple H line you’re assuming with no evidence was directed at you. “Where the best grudges are held” is more like it.

They’re actively trying to take down videos of Punk and Perry. Like what even was the point of airing it in the first place if you end up trying to wipe it from the internet after?

On one hand, I genuinely feel bad for the fans and some of the wrestlers. Rhodes, Mox, MJF, etc are all people I hold in high regards. It sucks they’re stuck on that sinking ship though.

Not as good as previous weeks but a lot furthering storylines.

Also did something that people keep saying to do bookend shows with storylines. We are meant to start with Samoa Joe versus Dustin. Swerve attacks and then we got will we see the match followed by it being the main event where once again Swerve comes after Joe.

Penta versus Copeland was a good match. Then we get the follow up to the House of Black versus Copeland as well as Willow and Julia. Which leads to a mixed tag match next week.

We get deluded Jericho who thinks Hook and Shibata are there to learn from him.

Then of course we get the footage which is used to attack FTR and further set up the return of the scapegoat. Then FTR come out with a great promo to add a further layer to the tag match at Dynasty.

Next up Danielson and Ospreay is the focus with a great Danielson interview followed by Ospreay rightly taking a shot back at Triple H before moving on to talk about the match.

Then we get Hook Jericho and Shibata with deluded Jericho not helping his team out costing them victory. Hook being right not to trust that guy.

Okada bully’s another jobber then accepts PACs challenge which brings out Elite and then FTR furthering the story from earlier on.

In a fun segment we get Toni Storm with cheap shot on Rosa with champagne which brings out Deanna who is stopped by Luther and pushed away by Rosa. This followed by Mariah May coming out and getting. Kiss on cheek for encouragement.

A good match followed by the debut of Mina Shirakawa. As the forbidden door opens more for Stardom talent.

Interview with Mercedes who has been involved in the business of Julia and Willow, so another story that is played out across the show and then lights go out and Mercedes is attacked. So we will get who dunnit for a few weeks no doubt.

Then the main event which I covered.

Not the greatest show for wrestling but of lot storytelling going on and through out the show for multiple feuds and matches coming up at Dynasty. Much better pacing for the show as a result. And it’s better that we are getting interwoven storylines again.

but all the good stuff has completely been overshadowed by an all-time absurdly booking decision that will cause a wildfire of discourse for all the wrong reasons.

I’m surprised that people think this is a seismic shift in either direction. Punk looks like a dick, like we knew, and AEW hyped up an anticlimactic video. Person who comes out looking best is probably Jungle Boy, who was completely calm the whole time and was about to get out of Punk’s weak choke.

I do think it was good they aired it though because at least it demystifies it all.

AEW will still get 700k views and WWE will still be no.1

Trying to make something out of nothing

yesterday that Cody initially refused to use Dusty’s legacy to get cheap face heat for his character and told people not to mention his dad during promos years ago. Once he started doing that, his character took off and all the sympathetic babyface heat came to him because people wanted to see a kid make his dad proud in heaven.

The Bucks have openly refrained from wanting to use their EVP status as characters, and went out of their way to make sure people didn’t think their EVP status meant they would push themselves. So they put over so many people early in AEW eating losses that TK had to step in and put a stop to that. Now they’re embracing the persona that their internet haters has given them as these EVP Heels who do what they want when they want, and it’s actually slowly working. From what we know from people like Sting and others who have said nothing but great things about them, they’re actually very good and nice family men who aren’t like what their characters are.

AEW need to ignore WWE and focus on doing what they do as well as they can.

Probably an unpopular opinion given the discourse around Jericho feuds, but I wish they’d let the tension between Hook and Jericho simmer for a week or two more.

I am a big aew fan, I actively dislike WWE. I used to be a massive cm punk fan and feel disappointed by him (just in general not cause of the footage) this won’t stop me from watching dynamite but I don’t agree with the move of airing the footage.

Also this is the first time I ever considered buying twitter premium just to be able to filter away any post that says punk or cm punk

And I think that’s just what they’ll do. People comparing this to WCW 2000 or predicting doom and this or that either don’t watch anyway or are think that everything that isn’t a 10/10 show means that the company/promotion is finished.

Windy City Riot/Rampage on Friday, 3 hours on Saturday and then Dynasty is already next weekend which we know will be absolutely amazing. They will be fine.

“It’s just one episode of Dynamite” in defending the Punk angle are missing the point.

This is indicative of the kinds of petty childish shit that they’ll keep doing until the company tanks. This is the new low on the measuring stick for AEW booking. They’ve never not taken jabs and they always will and it’s going to turn a lot of people off because it will just get old and played out.

Osprey whining on TV because he took vague comments personally makes him look like an insecure brat.

Copelands recent promo defending Tony Kahn has instantly aged like sour milk, and he along with the other actual adults in that company should be embarrassed to be working for this rich man child.

This CM Punk drama will feed wrestling talking heads for the rest of the year

to heat up an otherwise-lukewarm Bucks v FTR title match.

Also blows my mind that Swerve can be the hottest babyface in the company while pulling such classic heel stunts. Dude is undeniable at this point.

Same type of asshole, same type of fans

He shoved him first. Perry backed up. Punk shoved him again then tried to choke him. They were pulled apart, and Punk took a swing at Perry. Then Punk got in Tony Khan’s face.

Punk was 100% the instigator.

That being said, please stop mentioning Punk. Please stop mentioning ‘the other place’. Just show up, put on a good show and ignore outside influences. I watch AEW for AEW, not for petty slapfights.

Hook, Jerry Lyn, Aubrey and the other refs. They’re all going to get asked about this in future interviews because we have proof they were first hand witnesses to it.

to see what AEW has become.

Dredging up real-life fights where the owner said he feared for his life is not fun. I know wrestling pushes boundaries, but this one just did not work for me.

At this point, I just want both companies to ignore one another.
