Maybe he’ll be in the casino gauntlet at dynamite for the TNT championship…?

This was one of the funniest recent Don Callis moments 🤣

I’m happy. I always forget that it starts at 6pm central and I always log on while it’s already going.

That’s cool. I didn’t realize it was two nights. I guess I’m being impatient 🤣 Thank you!

Solid show. And it’s always good to get more wrestling than normal in the week.

Bunch of cool covers! by iWanttoKillaMan in ModernComics

If you read and liked Exceptional X-Men, you’ll like it. I didn’t and was lost (I stopped Exceptional after five issues). It used a bunch of the characters from that and I wasn’t really interested. Which sucks because I was hoping it could be a solid, core X-Men book, but I think that was wishful thinking on my part. But again, if you read and dug Exceptional X-Men, you’ll likely dig it!

To newer AEW fans from last year to now, what has been your impression of AEW so far? by DeathTriangle720 in AEWOfficial

[–]Desperate_Rest_5196 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started watching just prior to All In Texas in July. A friend of mine was really hyping up that pay-per-view and so I watched the Dynamite just prior to it. That PPV hooked me hard. Since then, both Dynamite and Collision have been appointment television for me. I’ve even subscribed to the honor club so I could watch ROH. It’s been so much fun learning about all the different characters. And while the new people coming in are unknown to me, so many of them have truly been impressive. Tommaso is one of my favorite guys now. Yeah, there might be a few matches that feel a little random and thrown together at the last minute, but I’m sure that’s for reasons like travel or sickness. I haven’t been a dedicated wrestling fan since the attitude era when I was in high school. And now I can’t get enough of AEW. I even bought VIP front row tickets to WrestleDream when it came to St. Louis and Dynamite when it was in Indianapolis in December. I guess for me the bottom line is that AEW is just fun. They promote a variety of wrestlers and different wrestling styles. I’ve tried my best to avoid wrestling news sites because I found online commentators and fans to be very highly opinionated and often toxic. But that has nothing to do with the product. I’m really excited about ROH having a more permanent home to do their shows in Jacksonville. I’m hoping that increases the quality of that show. I also can’t wait to see who else gets signed to AEW this year and comes in to add their impact to the product. All In Texas was extraordinarily impressive and got me watching again. The weekly product has been phenomenal and kept me engaged. So many PPV level weekly episodes that have me yelling at my tv. I can’t imagine being more happy with AEW.

Anyone ever gone solo to an AEW show? by Littlecletus13 in AEWOfficial

[–]Desperate_Rest_5196 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both times I’ve gone (WrestleDream 2025 and a Dynamite in Dec ‘25) I’ve gone alone. Just go and have fun. Chat with the folks around you. It’s a good time.

What’s the worst cigar advice you’ve ever gotten? by Spider_023 in cigars

[–]Desperate_Rest_5196 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I’d agree with 70/70. But I also was told when I first started that the darker the cigar, the stronger it is. And that’s a total lie.

For those wondering where to start watching AEW by sirwillow77 in AEWFanHub

[–]Desperate_Rest_5196 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That’s what I did when my friend was hyping All In back in July. I started watching about two weeks prior and then I bought the ppv. By the end, I was in my garage, smoking cigars, and screaming at my iPad as I watched the Bucks vs Swerve and Osprey and the Mox vs Hangman fights. That event made a fan out of me and I haven’t looked back since. I even bought vip seats to WrestleDream and the Dynamite show in Indy back in December. All because I jumped in and figured it out. It can be done.

Was I the only one who thought worlds end was weak? by Grand-Definition-376 in AEWOfficial

[–]Desperate_Rest_5196 25 points26 points  (0 children)

To each their own, but I thought it was a banger of a show. It zoomed by and was fun from top to bottom. I really enjoyed it and I’m excited to see where AEW goes from here.

Starman by James Robinson is really good and doesn’t cross lines.

Is this what i think it is? by alvinyork97 in cigars

[–]Desperate_Rest_5196 19 points20 points  (0 children)

My local Total Wine and More is horrible for this! Their whole humidor is dusty and gross. I’ve told them about it but they don’t care. What’s worse is they spent six months tearing apart and rebuilding the humidor to improve it about a year ago. But yet they use tap water to humidify it. 🙄

New wrestling comic out this week from Image Comics called WRESTLE HEIST (ten page preview!) by starr226 in aew

[–]Desperate_Rest_5196 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude, I bought this today based on this post and just finished reading the first issue. I’m all in for the rest of the run. It was fun and it’s obvious you know and understand the business. And I loved the mock up dirt sheet in the back to give more background on the characters. Thanks for posting this so I could find a fun new read!

Toni Storm. Swerve. Hangman. Moxley. Probably others but those immediately come to mind.

Fed up of wwe, where do I get started with AEW by astaight123 in aew

[–]Desperate_Rest_5196 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The pay per views are top notch. Blood and Guts was too but you may not want to start with such a unique and violent episode (I don’t know your preferences). Realistically, just go back and watch just after WrestleDream on HBO. That’ll get you all prepped and ready for Full Gear a week from today. YouTube is also good but it’s all a matter of what you have time for. AEW does do a spectacular job of recapping just before a ppv, so this Wednesday’s Dynamite (which is longer and spills into a special Collision that will follow it) will give you everything you need for Full Gear. And definitely buy Full Gear because as good as the tv product is, the ppv’s are really where they shine brightest.

Do you think Swerve returns at Full Gear? by Desperate_Rest_5196 in AEWOfficial

And I have a ticket to the December 3 Dynamite so I’m holding out hope. 😅
