Welcome back for an all new edition of Blogs Count Anywhere, the complementary blog to the ODPH Podcast & 607TWS on Twitch! It’s been a while since the last blog, but news (except for the ROH breaking story which will be covered on the podcast more in-depth) hasn’t been very earth-shattering. However there have been a few quick points to mention, so let’s talk shall we?
First and foremost, how much fun was this match for the Halloween AEW Dynamite show?

Speaking of AEW, they’re picking up steam going into their next Pay Per View event “Full Gear” on Nov. 13th. The long awaited title match with Hangman Adam Page finally getting his title shot vs. Kenny Omega is headlining the card, but there’s another story line happening that, imo, is really caught my attention more so than the main event build. There is currently a tourney for the next world title challenger going on and one competitor has been making noise & getting a unique reaction for his matches:

Ever since his match vs. Minoru Suzuki, Jon Moxley has been literally running thru his opponents in very violent & bloody fashion. Seeing this side of Mox reminds me a lot of how he wrestles in Game Changer Wrestling where he is currently champion. It’s a new wrinkle to his character that some fans might not be super familiar with. IMO, He’s currently scheduled to face Orange Cassidy in the next round & if he runs thru Cassidy, I feel it’s safe to say that the full blown “heel” turn is in full effect. Where Mox has been teetering on the “Anti-Hero” role, squashing one of the most over faces in the company will push him clearly in that direction. This plays well for who he’s most likely going to face in the finals:

One of the most over faces in pro wrestling vs. a destructive heel with no remorse? LET’S GO
Taking a quick lap around the rest of the usual suspects:
WWE: NXT 2.0 had a monster Halloween Havoc show where nearly every title changed hands. For anyone worried about what would happen during the reset, look no further than BRON BREAKKER as proof that WWE’s developmental brand is doing just fine.
The main shows have been improved (esp. Raw) since the WWE Draft, but are building some nice programs heading into the winter months (Rollins vs. Big E, Reigns vs. McIntyre most likely starting, All Hail King Woods, Hit Row & Brock “suspended” just to name a few….).
IMPACT: The era of MOOSE has begun, but so has the reign of Trey Miguel as X Division Champ. Fans also have to be excited to see with the IInspiration has in store for the Knockouts division.
GCW: The best indie running has some major shows starting up heading towards the Hammerstein Ballroom in January. Get on board now & don’t miss it. Briscoes vs SGC 2…. LETS GO!
And last but not least:
