What an absolutely incredible show. Start to finish, just perfect. Both main events absolutely blew me away.
I could talk for paragraphs on it, but I'll just leave it at that and call it a day.

FINAL COUNTDOWN!!
That pop was amazing. I LOVE Forbidden Door. And that Omega Ospreay match was....wow.
Daniel Garcia's dancing finally got the reaction it deserves.
You love to see it.
Noooo Billie, that's the hardest part of the ring!
Holy shit that tiger driver looked devastating.
Yeah that looked rough lol
Super rough. I can't imagine that felt anything other than awful, and I'd be shocked if he weren't really hurt there.
This Omega/Osprey match feels like the biggest thing in Wrestling right now. I know it's not, but they did a good job of making it FEEL like it is.
It's been awesome so far. And I'm really impressed by how much Osprey is willing to bleed.
That show was out of control! From getting ELP in the pre-show all the way to Bryan Danielson tapping out Okada with a broken arm, just wow.
That show was fucking amazing from beginning to end. AEW always delivers on PPV, but that was just next level.
Banger after banger after banger after banger after banger after banger after banger etc.
Even the Zero Hour matches before and the scrum afterwards were amazing. Wrestling fans had a feast
I loved the show, but I'm very worried about Bryan Danielson not being able to use his right arm at the end. They treated the seizure as a work, but it was a very weird thing to do in a match.
He broke his forearm
Sounds like a broken forearm. They're saying he's out 6-8 weeks =/
Kinda feels weird that Swerve is the leader of ME yet he's the only one without a belt lol
Swerve is really one of the coolest auras in AEW. just his character is so cool
Thanks for setting up the live thread, OP!
Zero hour has been good so far. Super excited about the show.
No worries! Enjoy the show.
Is Toronto so pro Elite because Kenny Omega is from Canada or is there another reason? Just curious!
Yeah that could be part of it. And the whole Brawl Out stuff–if it isn't a work–doesn't paint Punk in the best light.
Ohh that makes sense! I just expected it to be split but it was so overwhelmingly negative I was surprised (Punk must love it though! :3)
Here comes the elite pop!
Loved that big swing to dropkick combo
That was awesome timing by Omega with that foot on the rope.
Kind of an odd finish to the Sting trios match.
Yeah it felt rushed...or something. Just off.
Sting was supposed to dodge Sammy which would explain how he came back and why Sammy stayed out of the match. Still fun. Stinger is made of some kind of shiny metal istg
I wonder if Darby was legit hurt, it seemed like he should have had a larger part. Same kinda goes for Sting, though, so who knows.
Anyone who still says Bryan is better than Kenny after that is kidding themselves.
What a match. Gotta think they're gonna run it back at Wembley.
That was outstanding. I still have chills!
Same! Now imagine what it's going to be like in front of 70,000+.
Did Sammy chip a tooth or is that blood? Hard to tell.
Looked like blood to me.
Yeah you're right. It looked better afterwards.
Main event time! Who do you think is going to win? I'm going Okada.
We all win!
Great answer.
I love the crowd cheering equally for both Danielson and Okada lol
I thought my screen was stuttering when Tana was writhing in agony lol.
What's the over/under on ELP throwing another dick punch? 0.5? Is that how betting works?
