@ADRIAN.95 Then why take any of these guys seriously? Why have a pin? Why have winners and losers? Why have belts? It's not that serious right? It's fake, it's a work.... we know that. Why no just watch these guys fall off stuff together all night. Who cares about Adam Cole or Orange Cassidy?
Orange Cassidy has played his character PERFECTLY. People used to laugh and scoff at the goofy little fake kicks but now when he's serious they turn into vicious MOCKERY towards his opponent, like he's saying "Oh you're so tough huh? huh?" He is truly a phenomenal wrestler and one of the best performers I've seen in a long time
I don't see why everyone is complaining about Adam Cole losing or "not being at the top" right away...he's having fun and putting over someone after one hell of a fight (that isn't even counted as part of their AEW record, mind you), so I don't see the big deal in Cassidy going over! If anything, it just cements him as one of AEW's most underrated workhorses, given how this has been one of his bigger feuds that, imo, paid off quite well. Hell, I wouldn't mind seeing a rematch between Cassidy & Statlander vs. Cole & Baker down the line!
Some young fans need to understand that OC will never be an upcarder like Cole should and used to be, no matter what their own inexperience about wrestling makes them believe.

This might be on my top 10 favorite matches of 2022 in AEW so far. The ending was hilarious with Adam Cole expression before the fall. Also finally Cassidy wore a cup. I like the bunny's kick but I thought orange would be tired by now. Great match.
Cassidy: *hugs Cole* 🫂 Cole: "Nani?" 🤨❓ *Cassidy and Cole both look down* Cole: "No! Don't!!!" 😟 Me: Yes Cole, you're going for a ride...😏 *They both crash through the staging area*
Adam is still protected just as Kenny was when he lost to Mox then he went on being a Tag Champ with Hangman before a year or so after beat Mox for the title
The *Lights Out* match was terrific with one good spot-on ending. Orange Cassidy outsmarted Adam Cole in the end. Also, Kyle O'Reilly didn't come out to aid Cole. That can be a good angle to explore.
