THY KINGDOM AE-DUB/MLW FIGHTLAND/NWA HARD TIMES 3

Welcome to an all new edition of Blogs Count Anywhere, the complementary pro wrestling blog to the ODPH Podcast & 607 TWS: The Wrestling Show! It’s been a very busy few weeks as I hit New York Comic Con and have been catching up on all the latest pro wresting news. WWE & GCW have been making some headlines the past week. Bray Wyatt has returned in a BIG way. Nick Gage is the GCW Champion avoiding retirement. All have taken up the majority of press. For this entry, there are some other organizations making some waves in their own right that you should definitely know about. Let’s take a quick lap around the feds and see what’s happening, shall we?

Kicking things off is All Elite Wrestling. During all the headlines, it was announced that current world champion Jon Moxley has signed an extension that will keep him with the company for 5 more years. This is a big win for AEW that needed one in the worst way. Moxley has restarted his career in AEW and took that energy to NJPW & GCW just to name a few indie feds. Mox has been the true face of AEW for a while now and seeing him invest back can only help the company during its’ recent locker room woes. During this time, it was also announced that Renee Paquette has joined the company as well. Another HUGE win for AEW as she is an excellent interviewer & commentator. Memo to the AEW powers that be: PUT RENEE ON THE DYNAMITE ANNOUNCE TEAM ASAP!

AEW also finished a run of shows in Toronto with some noteworthy events transpiring. Orange Cassidy defeated PAC to win the All-Atlantic championship. Fans were also gifted a segment to hype up the Adam Page/Moxley title match for the 10/18 edition of Dynamite (Special Day change). Ring of Honor also had their (more than) fair share of TV time this week as Chris Jericho defended the ROH title against Bryan Danielson with an assist from the ROH Pure Champion Daniel Garcia. It was a better show than the 3 year anniversary one but imo, AEW Rampage had the bigger moment coming from its conclusion.

Walking out at the end of the show to face off with ROH tag champs FTR was Mike Bennett, Maria Kanellis-Bennett and Matt Taven, collectively known as The Kingdom. All 3 are very well known members of the previous Ring Of Honor incarnation. Bennett and Taven are an excellent tag team, most recently seen in Impact Wrestling. Taven has been heavily rumored to be on the radar of WWE, but note the word “rumored”. Maria is very well known to make an impact as well being “The First Lady Of Professional Wrestling”. The real question is IF they are all signed to AEW or is this a partial deal?

If I’m AEW, I don’t let them leave the building without a signed contract. Yes, there are a lot of people signed between AEW and ROH but the Kingdom is one not to pass one. They are that good that they should be featured on programming each week no matter what company it is. If ROH is getting a real TV deal, the Kingdom can add some depth to a very stacked tag team division. If They’re not, they could do some work in an AEW tag team division that (imo) has cooled off a bit without FTR & the Young Bucks in the mix. It feels as the shift of tag team has gone to the newly created trios titles. Other than The Acclaimed and Swerve/Keith Lee, what 2 person teams have been making notable noise. FTR hasn’t been NEAR the AEW belts and finally got some time this week against an ROH team that was lost in the shuffle. This wouldn’t happen with Bennett and Taven. Only question now is how long with this reign of the Kingdom be? If AEW is smart, this should last for quite some time….

Major League Wrestling is loading up their MLW Fightland Card slated for September 30th in Philadelphia. The main event is World Champion Alex Hammerstone defending against “The Judge” Ed Njuka in a “last Man Standing” match. The card looks like one not to miss with matches like Lio Rush taking on Jacob Fatu and Calvin Tankman facing Willie Mack. Keep following MLW social media to hear about the match line-up. This is looking like a great card.

The National Wrestling Alliance has just announced a few dates for Louisiana in November that all NWA fans simply can’t miss. On November 12th, “Hard Times in New Orleans” aka “Hard Times 3” will feature a 3-way dance for the world title as current NWA Champion Trevor Murdoch defends against former champion Matt Cardona and current NWA TV champion Tyrus. Also scheduled for the show: NWA Women’s World Champion Kamille defending against KiLynn King, and Nick Aldis challenging Odinson amongst other great bouts. On November 13th, there will be a television taping “Revolution Rumble” that fans will want to catch if they can.

MJF IS DYNAMITE/TALES FROM THE RING/GCW LIVERPOOL

Welcome to an all new edition of Blogs Count Anywhere, the complementary Pro Wrestling Blog to the ODPH podcast and 607 TWS. All the buzz in the pro wrestling world has been focused on the AEW All Out “Gripe Bomb” fallout. Make sure to check out the 607TWS special edition: AEW Reborn for a closer look at that incident. Now a week removed and the major players involved (that we know of) currently off TV until further notice, how does the landscape shape up now for All Elite Wrestling? This is what the fans SHOULD be talking about. Let's take a closer look and see, shall we?

MJF

Photo Credit: All Elite Wrestling

AEW Dynamite kicked off with the prodigal sun returning: MJF to start the show. After closing out “All Out” with a subtle knod he was going for the AEW world title, this was the first time fans heard form him in months since his own incident at “Double Or Nothing”. With Tony Khan vacating the AEW world title (along with the Trios Tag titles due to the “All Out” incident), fans were wondering how “The Salt Of The Earth” fit into plans. MJF opened up playing to the Buffalo crowd and cut a great face promo, only to turn back into heel mode when Jon Moxley hit the ring. MJF made sure to remind everyone that has has a guaranteed title shot whenever and wherever he chooses before leaving the ring.

This was a perfect way to bring him back to the fans for the most part. No stranger to controversy, MJF had the fans watching eating out of the palms of his hands. Getting the attention off Punk, Omega and the Bucks was needed. The talk shifted to when is MJF going to cash in. However, It wasn’t without its’ questionable moments. MJF threw in a line about (paraphrasing) leaving and joining Cody Rhodes in WWE. In a time where AEW needed to stabilize their image, having one of their biggest stars talking about leaving for a rival promotion might not have been the best time. He was a heel doing heel things, but perception is reality and took some luster away from the segment. Luckily, someone else came in and squashed any buzz from that punchline (for now).

Jon Moxley

Jon Moxley crashed the segment and addressed him losing the AEW title during the promo with MJF. Moxley also led off with a passionate promo rallying fans around the company. It’s been no secret since Mox has joined up with AEW, he has been doing some of his best promos of his career. With the company reeling in the PR department, Mox cut the best one needed to steady the ship. It made even the most jaded AEW haters take notice. Hearing how emotional he got for AEW was what their fanbase needed to hear. No one talking of leaving. No one talking of going to join HHH. No more distractions. Mox’s speech has now set the direction for the world title tourney heading to AEW Grand Slam later in the month. In a week of turmoil, this was the right message to send the fans before starting the next phase.

Daniel Garcia

Overall. AEW Dynamite might have been their best show in quite some time. Not overwhelming with wasted promo segments, the show had 2 great main events: Hangman Page and Bryan Danielson along with the ROH Pure title on the line with Buffalo native Daniel Garcia finally defeating rival Wheeler Yuta to win the prize. It’s a big moment as Garcia seems to be finally making the breakout that fans are waiting for someone to do. Other than HOOK lately, who has been a homegrown talent to make the leap? Page, MJF and Darby are all from the original signing class. Wardlow shortly after that, but since there has been a big void. Garcia appears that maybe him along with Ricky Starks will be that next wave. Working along side Chris Jericho can only help. The current storyline with JAS vs. BCC for Garcia’s loyalty has been decent but should only get better with the title change but can’t slow down now. Not doubting we get Garcia vs. Guevara happening form this. Never the less, Congrats to the new champ.

Samoa Joe

In a nice surprise, AEW Rampage also had one of their stronger shows in recent memory as well. ROH Champion Claudio Castangoli defeated Dax from FTR, Serena Deeb won against Madison Rayne and Samoa Joe is now back on TV setting up some matches for the ROH title. IMO, just rename AEW Rampage to ROH Rampage and let the talent shine. This capped off a great rebound for the company by making fans talk about the in-ring work, instead of the out of ring drama. Fingers crossed, this is the start of more great wrestling programming to come.

Pro Wrestling Revolver has an insane card set for September 17th with “Tales From The Ring".” AEW Tag Team Champs Swerve Strickland and Keith Lee will be on the card against Rich Swann and Matt Palmer, Impact Wrestling Champ Josh Alexander is facing the 1 called Manders, Speedball Mike Bailey has an open challenge 6-way for the X-division title and much more! Don’t miss this PWR card as it’s available on Fite TV! It’s well worth the price of admission!

Game Changer Wrestling gets ready for a whirlwind tour stretching over the next few weeks starting up in the UK on September 16th. It’s a very stacked card with EFFY, Matt Cardona, Joey Janela and others making this tour. personally, I can’t wait to see Blake Christian vs Jordan Oliver. The event will be streamed on Fite TV so make sure you’re following GCW on socials so you don’t miss this event.

Lastly, MLW just added a major match for its’ Super Series show happening September 18th in Atlanta. Shun Skywalker (from DragonGate) is challenging MLW Middleweight champion Myron Reed. Another excellent match added to this card, so make sure you’re following MLW for all the latest.

COUNTDOWN TO AEW ALL OUT/MLW SUPER SERIES/ GCW SECOND CITY SUMMIT

Welcome to an all new edition of Blogs Count Anywhere, the complementary pro wrestling blog to the ODPH podcast and 607 TWS. This might be a shorter blog than ususal since a LOT was discussed on this week’s 607TWS. That said, All eyes in the wrestling world are waiting for and watching AEW this week as its’ their HUGE “All Out” weekend. There has been some moves that have raised some eyebrows going into the big show Sunday, September 4th hailing from Chicago and available on pay-per-view via Bleacher Report & standard cable outlets in the USA (Fite TV for international viewers). Let’s take a look at a few that play a big part on the road to the show, shall we?

CM PUNK/Jon Moxley

Photo Credit: All Elite Wrestling (Lee South)

The Main Event for “All Out” was presented FOR FREE on AEW Dynamite this week as CM Punk returned to face Jon Moxley in a unification bout. Punk “was injured” and squashed in a 3 min match. The fallout has become a vacancy in the main event slot for Sunday. Moxley is scheduled to talk on this week’s Dynamite so we can speculate that his opponent will be named. As mentioned on the show this week, the only name you can plug and play with is Samoa Joe.

Rumors of Adam Page and MJF won’t have the same big name push to sell a $50 show to fans on the fence of buying it. Adam Cole is still out. Claudio is in the same faction as Moxley so that wouldn’t make sense. Joe is instant credibility and will be something new for fans to watch. I fear that it will be a set-up to get Punk back in the main slot (as he could win the casino ladder match) and try recapturing some old ROH magic. If so, the lasting picture of putting the Mox vs Punk match on 2 weeks prior will (imo) be known as a huge misfire, esp before the biggest show of the year. That was the best match to make for the show. Giving it away for free might have been more costly than anyone realizes.

Will O’spreay and Aussie Open

Another interesting story is who will be in the Trios Tournament finals. On AEW Dynamite this week, Will O’spreay and Aussie Open will challenge Kenny Omega and The Young Bucks. The winner goes on to face the Dark order in the finals on Sunday. Given the history between O’Spreay and Omega, this could be a treacherous line to walk. Both have been taking shots on social media with the Billy G.O.A.T. taking some deeper cuts. Pending on how this goes, The Elite would be featured against the underdogs of 10, Silver and Reynolds. Maybe we will have an upset thrown our way? Wednesday will give some clarity on where this is headng but that match should be generating noteworthy buzz.

Reba, Britt Baker DMD and Jaime Hayter

Thunder Rosa is out for defending her AEW Women’s title at the show due to injury. Her match has now ben made a fatal 4 way with Britt Baker, Shida, Jaime Hayter and Toni Storm. Safe money is Toni Storm to win since she was the original opponent for Rosa at All Out, but not doubting a surprise in Hayter pulling a quick win off. Baker is the most over wrestler in the women’ division so I wouldn’t be shocked if she did but thinking it’s Storm’s time. Should be a great match regardless.

Brody King, Malakai Black and Buddy Matthews

Lastly…. wtf happened to the House of Black? An early odds on favorite to go to the AEW Trios Finals, they were upset by the Dark Order thanks to Miro interference. Now, it appears to seem they will be facing Miro, Darby Allin and STING at the show. This is the second time in recent months that the much hyped faction has missed out on winning some championships. It feels like such a letdown that they haven’t gone over more. Hoping that they will finally land a championship before years’ end. It’s long overdue.

MLW: Super Series

Major League Wrestling has announced Hammerstone vs. Bandido for it’s Super Series card on September 18th in Atlanta, GA. This card will be one not to miss so make sure you keep an eye out on MLW socials for more information.

Game Changer Wrestling has a HUGE weekend in their own right going on with the Second City Summit. All 4 of these cards are must watch and personally, I can’t wait to see “The Art Of War Games” going down September 3rd with a WILD Tag Team War Games match to close out.

AEW FIGHT FOR THE FALLEN FALLOUT/ THE PEOPLE VS. GCW/ GP LIVE AT THE PAGEANT 2

Welcome to an all new edition of Blogs Count Anywhere, the complementary pro wrestling blog to the ODPH Podcast and 607TWS. This week has been pretty heavily dominated by WWE news. Whether it’s been Vince McMahon “retiring”, Triple H taking over creative or SummerSlam on July 30th (8pm EST Peacock Streaming), majority of headlines and coverage of pro wrestling has been focused there. For this blog, I’m highlighting some moments that fans should be keeping their eyes on. AEW started the week with their “Fight For The Fallen” event. During this event, $100,000 was donated by to Oceana, an organization devoted to ocean conservation. If any fans are interested in donating as well, check out Oceana.org/donate. For there, it was all wrestling as some story lines look to be forming for three noteworthy competitors. Let’s check it out, shall we?

Claudio Castagnoli

Photo Credit: All Elite Wrestling

First off was Claudio Castagnoli. After winning the Ring Of Honor world title from Jonathan Gresham (with a whole lot of rumored drama behind the scenes), Claudio came out on AEW Rampage to address the fans. This was a cool moment as Claudio has always been a favorite to fans for his uncanny strength and abilities. Seeing him with his first singles world title was a great moment. Claudio’s first challenger was announced as Konosuke Takeshita is slated to wrestle Claudio at AEW Battle Of The Belts 3 on August 6th (TNT Network 8pm EST).

This will be an excellent match as Takeshita has been putting on some great matches in AEW along with the indies. Featuring Claudio on the show also helps this show, which (in theory) is a showcase of champions. The previous times have felt somewhat lackluster. The first BotB featured Sammy Guevara as TNT champ, Britt Baker as AEW women’s champ & “FTW”, a title fans are confused at its placement in the AEW/ROH landscape, champion Ricky Starks. The latest one featured AEW women’s champion Thunder Rosa vs. Nyla Rose in an excellent match, TNT Champion Scorpio Sky vs. Sammy Guevara and ROH world Champion Gresham vs Dalton Castle. The in-ring work has never been a question with these cards but the major hurdle (imo) has been building enough of storylines prior to the shows so that fans tune in on Saturday nights to watch. Trying to sell fans on watching an FTW title match when it’s been rarely seen as a viable title (Hook’s winning it this week might chang things. Wait and see) is tough. Throw in a lack of push (imo again) at the time for Rosa’s initial run as champ and introducing Gresham to the masses where he may not be as well known as he is on the IWC is extremely difficult.

What would be the smart play here is feature on AEW tv or YouTube specials an “embedded” series like the UFC uses for hyping up pay-per-view cards. A behind the scenes look at training and prep for the matches. Give this card a “Big Fight Feel” would work wonders. These are supposed to be special events, so make them special. Guessing the card will be Claudio/Takeshita as main, Thunder Rosa defending against either Toni Storm or a Nyla Rose rematch from BotB 2, and Wardlow defending TNT against Scorpio Sky. It’s a solid card to showcase if in unfolds like this and AEW really needs to drive that home to their fan base. At the very least, it helps ROH get more TV with their champion. It’s a win for Claudio so lets see how he runs with the ball as your ROH Champion on August 6th.

Ricky Strks

Another noteworthy moment from this week was Ricky Starks made some big waves on AEW programming. After “losing” the FTW title to Hook in an impromptu open challenge after defeating Danhausen, Starks cut a fantastic emotional promo on the mic. It was abruptly ended by PowerHouse Hobbs turning on him and leaving him face down in the ring. As weird as this may sound, this was a BIG win for one of AEW’s future stars.

Starks had become lost in the shuffle until recently. “Team Taz” was once a faction with potential, but as time has gone on, it became an after thought. Brian Cage departed for (eventually) ROH. Hook became a fan-favorite and went his own way. Taz has been doing more commentary (which is another big win). That left Hobbs and Starks to become a formidable tag team. After feuding with Strickland and Lee, they wound up in a 3-way dance for the AEW Tag Titles. They fell short but had a great outing in the match. After this, a question I’ve had is where do they go from here as a team? The division is over loaded with talent and ROH isn’t on TV (yet). Starks has had all the tools to break out on his own and after this feud with Hobbs is done, Starks should be given a jet pack towards a program for the TNT title. I would LOVE to see him and Wardlow at Full Gear in November, but mark my words: Sooner than later, Starks will be a featured player on the AEW title landscape.

Stokley Hathaway and Lee Moriarty

Photo Credit: All Elite Wrestling

FINALLY! Lee Moriarty, one of the best wrestlers on the planet appears to have something in the works to get more TV time. On AEW Rampage, he turned on former mentor Matt Sydel and joined up with Stokley Hathaway as his representative (ala Paul Heyman to Roman Reigns). Since he debuted in AEW, Moriarty has been relegated to spots here and there with more recent activity involving the ROH brand. last we saw, he was used to get Jonathan Gresham’s “heel” turn over to set up the ROH ppv. Plus, Stokley will add some charisma to any storyline he’s in. Take a look at the impact he’s had with Jade Cargill. With Stokley at Moriarty’s side, I feel this means big things for one of the best kept secrets in AEW/ROH.

Daniel Garcia

Photo Credit: All Elite Wrestling

Last but of AEW talk for the blog: Daniel Garcia got a HUGE win over the returning Bryan Danielson on AEW Dynamite this week. The only drawback from this match is the story told was playing up too much (imo) to Danielson’s health issues. That aside, this was a fantastic match for another wrestler on AEW/ROH that needed a big win like that. With two factions getting a lot of programming time and often compared to heavily, Garcia is benchmarked against current ROH Pure champion Wheeler Yuta. These two had a great match (not a great ending imo) at ROH Death Before Dishonor, but seeing Garcia get the W here takes away from the sting of that loss in many fan’s minds. Nothing wrong with that.

The People vs. GCW

Taking a lap around the indies, let me go on record & say Game Changer Wresting “The People Vs. GCW” is in contention for card of the year. No question about it. There will be a deeper dive on 607TWS this week, but you need to purchase the replay on Fite.tv and see for yourself. Huge card to lead into Homecoming weekend at the Showboat on August 13th and 14th.

KING SWITCH CRASHES AEW/ IMPACT SLAMMIVERSARY/ GLORY PRO STL VICE

Welcome to an all new edition of Blogs Count Anywhere, the complementary pro wrestling blog to the ODPH Podcast and 607TWS on Twitch (also in Podcast form). All eyeshave been focus on the drama involving the WWE and bet that the 607 podcast family will be tackling that on next week’s shows. Even with those stories going on, there’s a lot more happening in the land of pro wrestling that you need to know about. Let’s not waste any more time and jump in, shall we?

Photo Credit: All Elite Wrestling

“Forbidden Door”, the joint show between All Elite wrestling and New Japan Pro Wrestling has finally started to take shape. With under 2 weeks remaining, fans have a clearer picture of how the card is going to shape up….and in one case, they don’t. After defeating Kazuchika Okada at NJPW Dominion, Jay White has been a person of interest as far as the pay per view event is concerned. Prior to Dominion, Former AEW Champ “Hangman” Adam Page challenged Okada for the IWGP championship, figuring Okada winning was a foregone conclusion. How wrong was this idea…..

White defeated Okada in a MOTY candidate and immediately post match said Page wasn’t getting the shot (to paraphrase). Page came out this past Wednesday to address those comments on AEW Dynamite but was interrupted by Adam Cole (Bay Bay). Cole proclaimed that if anyone was going to get the shot, it would be him, keeping things “Undisputed Elite” vs. Bullet Club. During this time, White emerged and attacked Page from behind, reiterating the same message from Dominion. During his speech, White also said Cole would NOT be getting the shot at the championship either. A bit of an odd stance with only under 2 weeks left to make a match, but there’s a few ways to look at it:

Photo Credit: All Elite Wrestling

One option which makes some sense would be to do a triple threat for the belt between Cole, Page ad White. The story-line is set for the most part and could fit in the co-main event slot. It’s a situation where you have 3 main event wrestlers and could just plug and play into a classic match. It’s one of the benefits of having 2 promotions work together. The only X factor here is if Okada would be added somewhere in this mix. It was hinted during this promo that he might not be on the card. Imo, I can’t see him sitting this one out unless there was a very good reason, so maybe they split the difference with Okada/Cole and Page/White. Both those matches would be huge matches in their own rights.

The only other reason I see White holding off would be Kenny Omega. Now, let’s remind everyone: Omega has been out of action healing up from grueling injuries he was working thru prior to losing the belt to Page. IF, and I stress IF he’s ready to go, the only match you can make there is White/Omega. There is history and that would generate the type of buzz needed for a co-main this late in the game. Omega’s status is still uncertain so all eyes will shift to Wednesday to see if “The Best Bout Machine” returns to accept the challenge of facing the Switchblade Era on June 26th.

Also on Wednesday, Hiroshi Tanahashi had a face-to-face confrontation with Jon Moxley before their main event at “Forbidden Door.” The stand-off did what it needed to do, but was interrupted by Chris Jericho and his JAS. Once they arrived, things went downhill has it turned into a messy brawl to set up a six-man tag for June 26th between Shota Umino, Eddie Kingston, and Wheeler Yuta vs. Minoru Suzuki, Sammy Guevara and Jericho. The only benefits from this was the card had a new match added but still took a bit away from really selling the main event. There’s one more week for them to sell the show. Hopefully Mox and Tanahashi get that chance.

In arguably the most random match added to the “Forbidden Door” card, it was announced that Will Ospreay, fresh off finally winning the IWGP United States Championship at NJPW Dominion, will be facing Orange Cassidy. This is a clash of styles to say the least. This is a huge profile match for Cassidy and one that will entertain. Personally, I was hoping he got the ZSJ match he was lobbying for at NYCC 2021, but that won’t be the case as ZSJ is scheduled to face Bryan Danielson (if he’s healthy). That’s not the only big news happening for the “Billy G.O.A.T.”

Photo Credit: Game Changer Wrestling

Ospreay will be headlining the Game Changer Wrestling card in Providence, Rhode Island on Sunday, June 19th. At GCW “I Never Liked You”, his opponent will be the young superstar and AEW signee Nick Wayn. This event caps off a strong weekend of GCW matches with the NYC card “You Wouldn’t Understand” going down on Saturday night (with 607 podcast in attendance). You want to make sure you order on Fite TV and don’t miss this cards!

Impact Wrestling Slammiversary is scheduled for Sunday, June 19th. The card is absolutely loaded! If you heard 607TWS this week, you know there is much to be excited about for this show. The Ultimate X match is worth the card alone! The main event will be a solid one between Eric Young and Josh Alexander for the Impact World title. Don’t miss this event on Fite TV

Major League Wrestling keeps adding great match after great match for Battle Riot 4 happening at The Melrose Ballroom in NYC on June 23rd. Just added to the card is a Women’s Featherweight title match between Brittany Blake and Taya Valkyrie! If you haven’t been following MLW lately, you wanna catch up quick! Battle Riot 4 is shaping up into something very special.

Last but not least, Coming off a showcase of sorts on AEW Dynamite, Glory Pro is making some moves for the summer! Matches have been announced for the next Glory Pro Wrestling card! “STL Vice” will be happening on July 24th at the South Broadway Athletic Club (SBAC). One of the big marquee matches is WARHORSE taking on “All Ego” Ethan Page. GP Wrestling is also hinting at a return to the Pageant so you want to be following them on social media and don’t miss any of the action when it goes down.

That’s all the pro wrestling talk for this week. For more coverage, make sure you’re following and subbed to all of the 607 podcasts family where they’ll be breaking down the latest from the weekend and more!
