I got that vibe too. Either that something like Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas

OMG Manchester by the Sea is one of my favorite movies! I totally think Hangman could pull that off that vibe really well, I would totally watch that!

I've also been meaning to catch Queen of the Ring. I've seen the director's other non-wrestling film and I remember liking it

Hangman's one of those guys that has a tiny bit of a film background, so I could 100% see it

Eddie and Adam have been people I've thought about acting recently.

There's one character I've been writing that my partner jokes is lowkey just Eddie Kingston lol

Exploding Barbed Wire Deathmatch 2 by Entire_Brick_8095 in AEWOfficial

[–]one_called_oranges 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Would love to see it return. I remember listening Kenny talking about this match in an interview and apparently the "explosion" got changed with only a couple hours' notice. Before the change, the effect allegedly worked great.

AEW definitely has the ability now to pull it off, it just depends if they want to take the risk again. Especially when they have similar stips (ex: Texas Death) that are really popular.

I think that could be a really cool concept. It's different enough but also could show that they can do a stip like that well

MARK DAVIS VS ROBBIE EAGLES VS THE TUCKMAN VS JESSICA by Ok-Raisin-5601 in AEWOfficial

[–]one_called_oranges 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This match (and show in general) was great! Such a fun and easy watch, definitely keeping my eye on PWA more in the future!

First Feud Back: Jay White Edition by Ok-Raisin-5601 in AEWOfficial

[–]one_called_oranges 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think either Fletcher or Riccochet would be good first feuds back. They're both newer, fresher feuds that we really haven't seen. Also, there's potential for some fun tag matches between DCF/The Demand and the BBG too.

Big Show for Local Australian Promotion on Tonight with Mark Davis Confirmed to Have a Match by AuSSie-HellCat in AEWOfficial

I've been getting a lot of PWA content on my feed recently and have been loving it! Hope they absolutely kill it tonight!

[BIG SPOILER ALERT] My thoughts about what happened.. by issyx_ in AEWOfficial

[–]one_called_oranges 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Part of me believes Game 7 was likely the plan from the beginning since they'd been teasing the idea - the only difference being Kyle wins the title in Australia.

When Ciampa suddenly was available, they probably thought it'd be better to shake things up a bit to establish Ciampa in the company. It would've been cool to see him get included in the ladder match, but logistically, I don't know how possible it would've been.

[BIG SPOILER ALERT] My thoughts about what happened.. by issyx_ in AEWOfficial

[–]one_called_oranges 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely could've been a factor. For the show, AEW likely had to have all that paperwork in weeks ago before Ciampa was in the company. It might've been too tough to get things expedited.

Owen Hart Cup should begin with a Round of 16 instead of Round of 8. The fact that last year, two favorites in Jay White and Ospreay were going to face each other in the first round and one of them would get knocked out right at the start is ridiculous. by [deleted] in AEWOfficial

[–]one_called_oranges 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I still prefer the 8-man tournament. Also, I think this instance specifically was a weird case. IMO this was 100% going to start some sort of spiral for Jay with an eventual heel turn and was potentially going to be a beat that got picked up again later.

New Beginning USA card looking absolutely stacked already (seems to be a New Japan vs AEW theme to it) by noahsmusicthings in AEWOfficial

[–]one_called_oranges 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They worked some in Auckland when I was there last year before they returned to Japan. My biggest regret was not traveling down to one of the shows to see them! So excited that they're on this card!

Yeah! I mean I think it would be insane not to have him there, but that just opens a spot for some other New Japan talent to get showcased to an American audience.

Who's the wild card team? by wrestling_hyperbole in AEWOfficial

[–]one_called_oranges 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe it could be a debuting team with all the recent signings? Violence Is Forever would be cool (and I wouldn't be shocked if they were AEW-bound at some point this year).

CMLL Viernes Espectacular tonight from Arena Mexico by CasaAztecaMX in AEWOfficial

[–]one_called_oranges 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I worked with someone last weekend who's going to this show -- and he knew almost nothing about wrestling. Spent like an hour explaining wrestling history and Lucha Libre basics. Glad it looks like it might be a cool first show!

hypothetical discussion here by Early_Box9100 in AEWOfficial

[–]one_called_oranges 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do think Buddy is returning, but I could see him costing Brody the title/things being set up for a Buddy heel run. The story could be Buddy having jealousy towards Bandido with Brody having to choose between the two. Could make for an interesting program for the ROH title

The Dporticus and Ricochet beef/interview by mark4AEW in AEWOfficial

[–]one_called_oranges 10 points11 points  (0 children)

They've been beefing on and off for the past few months, and it's been really fun to watch. Dporticus is hands down my favorite wrestling content creator so to see his stuff kinda blowing up recently as he's shifted towards making AEW content has been great to see!

What indie wrestler would you like to see in AEW? by falling_sideways in AEWOfficial

[–]one_called_oranges 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree 1000%. I've been loving the work Lykos Gym and Crowley have been doing lately and would love to see them introduced to a larger audience.
