the moment that sealed AEW future in the wrestling pantheon as the most dogshit promotion in history
>>20025476>E-Drones still getting worked but this fucking spotLOL you guys are fucking braindead
>i-it was a work
>>20025513>seething
>>20025476did we ever get a tell all on how this happened? Im guessing they were expecting way more smoke to hide it
>>20025546>>20025677>>20025698You realize Omega is a big troll and lies using inside jokes right? Or have you never watched one episode of Being The Elite?
>>20025916*likes
>>20025916>need to watch some no dimes behind-the-scenes YouTube skit to be clued in on the main event of a PPVdamn, GayEW truly is for the sickos
>>20025476Between this and the Christian signing, it was not a good night for AEW on the internet
>>20025698I think the excuse most AEW marks landed on was they used "indoor" fireworks at an outdoor venue, so that's why it looked so shitty.
>>20025476BOOOOO
>>20025916>>20025513Many are saying this
>>20025476It's still funny to me that Tony's storyline cope for this was to blame TNA
>>20025476Unironically this was the start of their decline
>>20025476I know a guy who watched every single Dynamite and AEW PPV up until this very moment and hasn't watched a second of AEW since. His last comment on it was: "......and the way Kingston sold it......"
>>20025476Which picture does the Death of AEW book get in a couple years:>The exploding ring fail>screencap from "real glass, cry me a river">Punk putting Jungle Boy in headlock>Young Bucks celebrating in the ring after Punk leaves
>>20027718The spring and summer of '21 was AEW's hottest period. The decline started after Full Gear in November.
>>20025513they couldn't tell you what was happening in TNA or MLW 5 years ago but by god they remember AEW like it was yesterday
>>20025476For me, it's the white dildo in the ring
Tony Khan actually had all the archives delete all 4chan data from that day and the weeks after to prevent anyone from seeing what we had to say about it.
>>20025476they are screaming about this one
>>20025513>getting worked but this fucking spotGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD MORNING SAR
>>20025916is this tranny actually serious or some chad flalseflagging against AEW?Im more inclined to think its a troll, no way theres someone so mentally ill to say it was a work lmaoIm legit shoot confused
>>20025916>Or have you never watched one episode of Being The Elite?
>>20027674Wait, what? I've never heard this part kek
>>20025476>the most dogshit promotion in historynope sorry that's still WWE
>>20029238it's in herehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5pyed4-IM3Qtbf I think Mox and Eddie did a good job at damage control on this, and they deserve a run with the tag straps
>>20029270I'm now angry I even asked I couldn't sit through 10 seconds of those two retards let alone 2 minutes.Fucking holy shit aew is trash.I thought you were saying Tony's weird "evil gm" character said it jokingly in one of those skits he was doing or something. I hope Moxley stubs his toe every day the rest of his life and that eddie never has a satisfying sandwich again God damn.
>nope sorry that's still WWE
Rent free
>>20029296>REEEEEEEEEEEok fat retard, you asked
>>20029312>too scared to replyUH-OH HE'S TAPPING OUT
>>20029324>fat retardbut enough about eddie I wanted an answer to the question not a bloated faggot yelling at a camera on youtube.
>>20029341>blah blah blah blah I'm a retarded faggot and I fill my pants with angry diarrhea every day because AEW existsk keep me posted
>>20029372You console war trannies really are weirdos.
>>20029312is this the time when he blew up his colon?
>>20029538'aid s'
>>20029538The second time
>>20029165>>20029109>>20029270Kingston thought his friend was going to get blown up along with the whole stadium. Turned out after Omega beat Moxley he added insult to injury by making Kingston look like an idiot cause there was no explosion. Pinning Moxley 1,2,3 was enough but Kenny wanted to embarrass Kingston too. This eventually led to the two feuding with omega and the Good Brothers later you stupid dumbfuck E-Drones. Stop pretending to be retarded.
>>20031043>b-but what about my headcanonKEKAROOOOOO
>>20031139>headcanonit's literally explained in the promo I linked you hours ago, you fat fucking retard
>>20029538no, this is when he tried the big arch
>>20031043>>20031150holy shit you're still crying about this to people?Tony fucked up and thought his low rent "pyro" would be fine. It wasn't.
>>20031043The reality is Tony cheaped out on fireworks. That's it. AEW was dogshit at production for the first few years because they had no clue what they were doing. Remember when Jericho fell from the top of the cage onto the "steel" stage that was just a bunch of steel diamond plate pattern printed onto poster board covering a crash pad?
Tony fumbled
>>20031205>>20031210>REEEEEEEEEEElose weight
>>20031150The promo was their desperate attempt to make the botched pyro seem intentional, when it very obviously wasn't.
>>20025476Yup
>>20031223>>REEEEEEEEEEEanon my last reply to you before >>20031205 was >>20029377...that was 6 hours ago.You have been crying about this for half the day.
>>20031224And if it was their plan, why did Kingston sell it like death?Remember on TV his explanation was he is on meds and had a panic attack and fainted? LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>20031223How about take solace in the fact AEW has actually gotten BETTER at production over the years instead of constantly shooting themselves in the foot with failed effects like this. You won't have to come up with your own pathetic head canon that way.
>>20031236>replies 2 minutes laterfucking loser.
>>20031237Didn't that explanation come AFTER the embarrassing, failed explosion? It was all just back pedaling to make it seem like AEW didn't cheap out on the special effect.
>>20031246Afraid so.Their big explanation was that Eddie Kingston is a medicated fat pig loser who faints on PPV.
>>20031210THIS. AEW's production was terrible for the first few years. Just like the shark cage that Tay couldn't unlock during the Shark Week episode. A few years in, they hired an ex-WWE guy that used to handle WWE's production and they've been better off ever since because he actually has years of experience setting up these spots and effects, and fired all of the amateurs.
22:51:56 No.2003123622:53:16 No.20031245hmm
>>20031246>>20031251>>20031255
>>20031210that was based
>>20031310>the small squares of diamond plateKEK
Why didn't you post the real one?
>>20031324I'm sorry I had no idea tony was so skilled. AEWgods please forgive me
>>20031310Obvious balsa wood is "based"?
>>20031324Kek. This happened during the covid era too, so if Tony was competent at the time he could have easily used smoke and mirrors to manipulate an actual big explosion
The Worst Is Yet To Come
>>20031324
>>20031324There was a funnier one that somebody posted on YouTube days after the PPV. It was a supercut of various explosions from action movies like ConAir. Shit was funny as hell, but I can't find it anymore :(
>>20025513It was a fumbled spot, I wish more promotions would do an FMW exploding barbed wire spot but AEW fumbled it hard. They should try again though
>>20025476AEW is a parody of pro wrestling
>>20031351......kek not that anon but this is actually a really good point they could've gimmicked shit way beyond what they did
>>20031310I'm honestly shocked looking at this
>>20025476What escapes me so much with this spot was that they had a chance to skate from most of the bashing they got had they just went with it & Eddie didn’t sell like he had just taken a heart attack in the ring. The following weeks’ explanation that Kenny wasn’t seriously going to stake getting blown up was a good save that could’ve gotten some heat on the angle.
>>20031310HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>20031405>>20025476I want to try out the competition after WM... but kek
>>20031390There's a reason soccer players, football players, and pro wrestlers have all separately called Tony Khan a clown at various times. He's a completely inept nepobaby that's never had a real job in his life. He's just wasting Daddy's fortune playing with his real life action figures. It became obvious a few years in AEW only exists to keep Tony away from fucking with Shad's sports teams.
>>20031425Tony thought people would think this is so cool
>>20031406The save would've worked better if Tony forced Kenny and Don to go back out there the second the explosions failed and have Don cut an improv promo on just wanting to mentally fuck with Mox and Kingston and Kenny never planned to put himself in any real danger. Waiting until the next Dynamite just made it obvious they had to cover somehow.
>>20031351There was still a live audience present, tho, some of which were live tweeting the whole event.
>>20031310SOVL
>>20031431There's literally a scene in this NFL Draft doc on Netflix of a bunch of NFL players openly laughing at Tony's dumb fucking neck brace. He REALLY thought he could get AEW some national exposure at the NFL Draft by selling a neck injury all week. This was the same time he also tried calling WWE the Harvey Weinstein of Wrestling, and NFL Network nearly cut the interview off immediately to avoid defamation suits. Tony is fucking retarded. There's a reason NFL hasn't highlighted him since. He's an embarrassment to the league.
>>20031310>>20031316>the small squares of diamond plate>>20031336>Obvious balsa woodis that stuff supposed to be steel plates????
>>20025476Such good shitAt least the sparkles didn't hit dean's face lol gj eddie
>>20031478I honestly don't even know what he was going for beyond "it is the same texture as the 9000 pound steps!" holy shit kek
>>20025698I don't remember what the interview or podcast was, but Kenny said he was so angry about the botched explosions that he had to go into a room with the Bucks to vent so the boys didn't see him lose his shit.
>>20031537You sure you didn't make that up?
>>20029312Omega is checked out. He's just milking the money mask
>>20025476Kek pissant
>>20029312How does a person get to look like that
>>20025916Kenny Osmega is a child molester
>>20034676Folks. Where's the lie?
>>20031043Shut up BITCH!
>>20034676dat port
>>20034676>>20034977>>20035275Oh dear
Still better than the Gay Talk Show WWE
>>20035275......ken e bros
Kenny's AEW run is similar to Angles run in TNA. They're treated like these goated veterans who are now allowed to call their shots... when they were obviously constantly being coached in their previous position. Just don't have the mentality to be good wrestlers, the athleticism is/was there, but they never wrapped their minds around psychology, pacing or storytelling. Kenny also makes stupid as fuck faces, probably because he doesn't experience emotions the same way normal people do.
>>20031310That's embarrassing.
>>20031478Yeah, it was supposed to be a stage made out of steel diamond plate (like you'd typically see on a wrestling show) but they just printed diamond plate design onto some balsa wood and covered up a crash pad. It MAYBE would have looked better if they'd used larger pieces, but as soon as he hits the crash pad, all of the individual pieces went flying, and you could see the crash pad he landed on. Shotzi made a tweet with a girl falling on a mattress to make fun of it, and AEW stans flooded her mentions and harassed her for weeks over it.
>>20025476>still better than any WWE product since 2006what a burn retard
>>20037776I'd say since 2017 at the latest
>>20031839Yeah, because I found the interviewhttps://youtu.be/VrtRLB-UGdM?t=1247
>>20038001OP WITH THE RECEIPTS
>>20025476Why didn’t Tony blow the whole arena up killing the tens of people in attendance? He’s such a coward.
>>20034676Is this true?
>>20035275Uhhhh... Cripley bros? Our response?
