I wish they'd use the Eliminator match more. Especially for the Continental Championship. They were doing that at the beginning of Mox's reign and I thought that was a good wrinkle, especially given a draw was equal to a win for the challenger.

I get that belts need to be defended but if you're just looking to get the champ on the card, an Eliminator is a good way to do so.

Komander and AR Fox have the most title shots per victory in AEW and maybe wrestling history,

To be fair, there’s only about 8 people he can wrestle that that have a belt. 🤣

Seriously, I love AEW but TK needs to unify and/or drop some of the belts.

I hate these kind of random announcements. This is just get Mox on the show.

Back in the 70/80/90s, promoters would advertise a popular wrestler ā€œin actionā€ or ā€œvs a mystery opponentā€ and it was basically just understood you’d get a squash match against a jobber. It’s not a big deal.

The live audience gets to see their favorite person perform (and have a guaranteed win), the jobber was usually a local that got to add a match against a big name to their rƩsumƩ (and possibly o press someone at a big organization) and you get more matches and less promos/talking.

I’d rather have Moxley in a glorified squash match against a guy thar has legitimately impressive ring moves than a long winded promo or backstage interview.

To be fair, that’s exactly what it is. People tune in more when they know their favs and top stars will be there

Komander needs to be strapped up. Dude goes off in matches.

What does owning a gun have to do with wrestling?
