@Bryan Bradley what he means is. Anyone within the company can get infected with Covid-19, if that happens, they may be forced to cancel the show. He is just stating that there is a possibility.
💯!!!
Give the same credit to WWE
Aaron Adrian Last night AEW showed that they care about their audience during this dark time. AEW will forever have my loyalty
See pulls off national 3:16 day.....raw and SmackDown without a crowd. I know you got the bucks to pull off a wrestling company but there are just some things you can't imitate.
This is like the opening monologue of a play, almost Shakesperian. When the history books are written and the documentaries compiled, this deserves to be one of the most important opening promos in AEW's history.
In WRESTLING* History
I love the idea of this type of promo opening a crowdless show it kinda feels like an old play and that vibe sets the drama for the whole episode
Well said
in wrestling history... in television history... in history.
Lmao the Elite is really just a bunch of theater kids if you think about it
Felt like i was watching Capt. America calling upon the Avengers. Well done Cody. Coming from 90s baby..this made me feel like i was watching authentic wrestling again
Tony khan is iron man
Cody is captain America
reddit moment
Cody was born in the 80s feller
Jeffrey Mark he was clearly referring to himself as a 90s baby, not Cody.
@@jeffreymark475 i know, im saying I am a 90s baby
Even though there was no crowd this was one of the best shows that y'all had put on in my opinion. Love you guys. AEW for life!!!!!!
Exactly the same I said. AEW is King.
Why they copied WWE with the no crowd thing?
@@din7291 First of all, both AEW and WWE decided to do without crowds due to the COVID-19 outbreak. Second of all, AEW actually put on a live show instead of relying on previous pay-per-view content.
@Cinèphiles Asylum hahahaha. ikr.
I love how the storyline was meant to be that Chris Jericho banned all fans from the arena 😂😂😂
Aew is best thing happening right now in this locked down world....
seeing AEW makes me motivated to fight for my patients....love from nepal.
You fighting for those patients make you a hero to a lot of people. Don't forget that
You are a hero, thank you for your service sir
amen brother
From Nepal or the Everest
Good person Khagendra, not many would find energy from entertainment and put it into saving others
Now, that's how ya cut a promo! This guy gets it! Just like his old man.
Cody's promo skills are top level!
He will make you feel emotional invested in his promo
I hope he keeps this up
Dusty would be proud
yup just like his daddy.
At least dusty had charisma
You don't know what hard times are, daddy.
Watching this back a year later, this is still an incredibly powerful opener, one I believe will be remembered in the history books.
This was one of the first moments that showed the true heart and spirit of the people that worked in this organization.
They pushed forward in a time of extreme uncertainty, when they didn't know if their telecast would still exist in a matter of days, and still went out of their way to give us, not only a little bit of a distraction from the world and it's problems, but gave us hope for the future.
Thanks to everyone backstage. You made this goddamned pandemic not quite as terrible. And for that, I wish you all the best.
This already seems like a lifetime ago. Gotta give AEW credit. They kept the show going during unpredictable times.
Agree
I forgot that there was no crowd after a while, I think having a few people cheering was enough to keep it from being awkward.
Nazareth right having some of the roster be the crowed to cheer for the ones with matches was an awesome idea.
After today’s episode wwe is gonna bite AEW’s idea and prolly do this with their next shows. Cuz them showing ppv matches wasting time was the lamest shit ever.
Like Vince dude got a big ass roster and you couldn’t come up with something as small as that. Just kinda shows he doesn’t respect the roster himself.
I think AEW is so good, you just know where the big pops would be like with Matt and the Exalted One reveals.
Not My Problem Brah Thank You!!!! I agree 100% with everything you said including WWE biting this style which should of been a no brainer already. Why not have wrestlers that aren’t going to be on tv anyway to sit in the crowd? Hell they could of had R Truth do some funny crowd stuff lol but that’s too much like right smh.
makes me sad.
I TOTALLY agree! Those few people outside really took me out of that awkward feeling.
Anyone who says pro wrestling is fake, or that it doesn't matter needs to see this clip. This is real. Every second of it felt real. For a brief moment, it felt like Greek theater. This is why we tune in. This is why we're fans. This is why.
@@The80sWolf_ (Sigh) There's always one...
@@The80sWolf_ (Slow golf clap)
@@The80sWolf_ You care about this why? I'm confused...
I feel like wrestling is not fake and yes i feel it
@@The80sWolf_ oh crap, wait... You mean it's not real? You mean these people weren't talking in the ring just now, you mean the fireworks weren't real? Did they do voice dubbing and fake CGI for the pyro? It's not real when they jump from the turn buckles onto their opponents... They're not actually doing that? It's an optical illusion? Are they using wires? When Sid Vicious snapped his ankle right in half in WCW, that was fake too? Was the surgery also fake? Are wrestling companies not real either? Is this all a dream that we're trying to wake up from? *Smacks my head
Wake me up!
Is the money they earn not real? That must be fake too. When there's a crowd, they must not be real. I think I'm losing it, I don't know what's real and what's not anymore. Someone please help me. How many wrestlers have to die for entertaining us before people like you will stop saying that it's "fake"? Get the F out of here.
Now this is how an empty arena show shall be done. Well done guys 👏
@Ricky John Cena did great on Smackdown
@Ricky he is a big guy though
@@Successzone1234 i cant believe, someone still fall for that joke
WeGottaSituation This episode was fun to watch honestly it kept people intrigued to wat h👏🏼👍🏼this felt like a movie with Spears and MJF gambling too lol
I can imagine they STILL turned down the crowd noise on Roman's entrance on instinct.
Distraction, entertainment, and positivity is what everyone needs right now and damn you all brought that to us for two solid hours last night. Thank you for that AEW, and I mean ALL of AEW.
Truth! Thank you everyone at AEW!
Look up in any search engine: global truth project. Read "The Present". This book explaining the truth about life/death can change the world if enough people read/check it is true.
WWE really missed out on a treasure that is Cody Rhodes
Hell yeah they did bro. 💯
Yea that's good in all but that's not the point right now. We're getting hit by a whole fucking pandemic and there are still idiots focusing on this dead brand war.
@The Pope Of Sports and Entertainment lmao. Dumbest shit i read all year.
@The Pope Of Sports and Entertainment Tell that to the ratings and live crowds for AEW, buddy.
@The Pope Of Sports and Entertainment Bullshit
this entire show was incredible. AEW really know how to use what they have to put on amazing shows
@Chaunsey Billings ok that's fine so why look up AEW videos and waste your time if you don't like it?are you really that bored
@Chaunsey Billings sure someone inboxed you. but hey you do you like whatever you like. Let people like what they like.
@Chaunsey Billings we are not related so you are not my brother. But you go enjoy what you want. Have fun
A year later and AEW has completely won me over as a fan. Thank you all so much for being a positive impact for us all in times where we weren't sure what was gonna happen to our friends, our family, ourselves, and of course our favorite performers. You guys did your absolute best to work with what you had and you knocked it out of the park every single week. Really do appreciate what you've given us. God bless.
wonderful bro!
Just wondering if you are still an AEW fan now.
In my eyes, "Hangman" Page is like Tetsuya Naito of NJPW. So, right now he is entertaining af.
IM.O totally get that, he’s chasing that gold
Nice name drop 👌
I hadn't thought of it that way but what I know about Naito and NJPW you're right!
He's far below Naito in terms of charisma, in ring skills & mic skills. Naito had a better organic story. But he's definitely the future of AEW
@@dead_people_been_quite_since Naito is a veteran. But, I am with you on how "Hangman" is the future of AEW.
Thanks AEW ! You guys showed the wrestling world how to do an empty arena show. Loved the Debuts of Lee and Hardy. Video package for Archer was well done too.
Lol, they got rowdy wrestlers betting on the sidelines though..
👌
The video package for Archer was great, I'm not very familiar with him but I'm excited for him vs Cody now.
@@rif5556 lance archers a beast. He was a star in new japan. Their building him good in aew. Cant wait to see what happenes next.
@@rif5556 Archer had a good match vs Moxley at Wrestle Kingdom in Japan earlier this year, worth checking out. I saw him wrestle on New Japan's US Tour as well this year, Colt Cabana and Jeff Cobb were also on the card.
Tonight's episode was epic!!!
It was Dynamite!
Especially with no crowd.I kinda had low expectations since there was no crowd.But this episode exceeded beyond my expectations
It was indeed a WONDERFUL episode
This show deserved an audience. It was that good.
it was better then what raw put on with Becky and her truck that shit was boring asl
AEW did a much better job than WWE without fans
For me that’s the biggest win they have over WWE so far
its shows who has the best writers and production team and wrestlers
You took the words out of my mouth , this is so epic ... even without an audience. These guys are really awesome , this is real classic wrestling at its best
I'm proud AEW did more wrestling matches than WWE Cuz they did nothing than some damn highlights.
Literally the same weirdness with no audience,you all a bunch of fanboys
@@TheJimmybeatz agreed but let us remember Vince controls everything.
This speech is one of the greatest now having seen what we've seen... having been through what we been through. What a time stamp this is..
This was one of the most meaningful opens to a pro wrestling program I have ever seen, my respect level just shot sky high for the elite
It's too true tho with all this madness going on with the Coronavirus around the world, things are changing to the point where we are loosing our old way of life, and yes Kenny we still do need entertainment pro wrestling is the only thing that has been getting me through
@@christinewebber7924 And what exactly is the "inevitable"? Because anyone who has truly paid attention to all of this from the start and have the ability to deflect the doom and gloom panic we're all apparently supposed to be completely wrapped up with are all coming to the same conclusion. Look, I'm the furthest thing from a conspiracy theorist and i've had many battles with those kinds of people over the years, but this COVID19 shit is a far departure from what we're all being told it really is. All anyone with even a little intelligence needs to do is look into the history of viral outbreaks and compare the seriousness of the virus and the numbers of infected and the death totals, along with the reactions and preventative measures taken by people and then compare them to now. It will become very clear that shit isn't adding up here, which will cause you to do more digging and with every passing hour you'll be able to relax that much more. The virus isn't the problem, the panic and over-reaction from the people however has become much more of a problem than it ever needed to be.
BEST SHOW EVER!! From MJF and Sean spears in the crowd betting on the matches and keeping us at home entertained to Lance Archer's promo to brody lee's debut to sammy singing to chris jerichos promo to matt hardys debut. Overall GREAT FREAKING SHOW THIS WAS!!!!
I'll never forget seeing this for the first time at my buddy's house. We simply looked at the TV and didn't say a word to one another until this segment ended
Very sad
Watched this with my girlfriend at the time on my couch. We usually scream like crazy for Dynamite but we sat in silence for the whole 7 minutes. It was chilling
Same.
Wow, looking back on this is so powerful. The way they spoke seems so weird, the world is falling apart but that's what it felt like, we went from normal to drastically different real quick, a lot of questions were asked and little answers were provided, this will forever be a special episode of AEW Dynamite and this entire Pandemic Era of Professional Wrestling will go down as Historic and the perfect example of making the best out of a shitty situation. The only downside are the people who didn't make it to the other side, to Brodie and everyone else, we miss you, we wish you were here to say goodbye to this weird time
This is the Cody Rhodes I wanted in WWE. But we never got it until now in AEW.
C'mon Stardust was awesome mwahahahaha...hehehehe...
@@juanwick2726 He was. But I believed he could do more then that.
It's in his blood.
@@chris95review43 I loved the stardust gimmick even if he felt uncomfortable. he invested immensely with every gimmick. What do you think of him now?
I definitely think we’re seeing peak Cody now especially when he eventually gets the titles off Roman
“This was my home during the pandemic” - Cody Rhodes on RAW 5/8/23
What a great speech!
Thanks AEW for making me forget about the world for 2 hours. Everything was just perfect tonight!
The promo that started it all. Thank you daily’s place.
Brodie Lee and Matt Hardy at the same night. My Gawd......
AEW AEW AEW🔥🔥
I loved this episode!
Orange Cassidy Vs Matt hardy
@@Successzone1234 Must see TV
2 Amazing DEBUTS IN ONE NIGHT
i think what made a BIG difference was having wrestlers replace the crowd, it still gives that energy of the crowd so please keep doing that
Tonight its not about AEW, WWE or any other wrestling company. Tonight its just wrestling entertaining against COVID-19. WE ARE ONE AND STRONG. God bless us all.
Technically it is aew cause nxt cancel their live show and it just a recap. And their no other wrestling show on Wednesday night.
COVINCE FEARS RATINGS
Cody legend. Aew the best
Due to the covid19 outbreak I was fucking robbed of seeing this episode in person
With everything Going on right now
This actually does put a smile on my face.
Thank you AEW
AEW delivered tonight more then I ever thought they could. Thank you A-E-W!
Even without a crowd they still tore the building down
i love professional wrestling dammit!
Alot of it had to do with how they set up the ring right next to he stage. Made it feel like opera rather than a empty void.
It's been one year since this episode happened and the first time we see Brodie Lee in AEW, this is one of the most important episodes in AEW that we won't forget
Looking back now after over a year, it's amazing how AEW was able to adapt their show under these difficult circumstances. Of course, it wasn't perfect and they experimented with things, but you were always able to feel the passion and the hard work that everybody in the ring and behind the scenes put into the show in this peculiar situation. I like how they acknowledged their position, how they addressed the audience and how they showed their own uncertainty because despite their gimmicks and their larger-than-life personas, they are also only human. Thanks, AEW.
Cody, Kenny Omega and Matt Jackson's opening promo was so golden I almost forgot there was no audience in attendance. I was just imaging that everyone was being quiet as The Elite was addressing what is going on around the world. This was so well done, Dynamite was a great show from start to finish, thank you AEW for existing.
For a moment I thought this was Japanese wrestling because of all the silence and I was waiting for the clapping of the hands to happen
The Faceless Gamer ooof they need to but prob won’t ever hold a show in Japan
I miss new Japan 🥺
@@Gawdzillest Why? It's not like they're not allowed in Japan, lol. If WWE can run shows there, I don't see why AEW can't.
Geronimo Reno yeah I think it’s New Japan, the company that Kenny and The Bucks have beef with. Not the entire country of Japan. They will probably eventually hold a show there. And if they don’t they really really should.
Guillermo Moreno I don’t see why they wouldn’t it’s not like new Japan owns every arena there if they want to they can do it and I’m sure the elite would love to return Japan in the near future
Never been a Cody fan, haven't kept up with wrestling in a long time let alone wstched AEW but godamn that intro was emotional. Really felt that, will be watching from now for sure.
"Hit the lights, hit the pyro, and lets start Dynamite!" *arena lights up*
This was beyond epic imo. Shows they really care about what they provide and didnt just phone it in.
It gave me chills.
One year on and this video still holds up. At a time of uncertainty and of panic, these people came together and did their best to entertain all of us watching from home. The world seemed like it was falling apart, some say that it still is but for this night and for every Wednesday night after, they helped relieve ourselves of our worries.
I have my own problems, just like every other person in this world, and I am thankful that I have this brief but wonderful moment of distraction that makes me proud to say that I am a wrestling fan.
Thank you Cody, thank you to The Elite, thank you Tony Khan and thank you AEW.
AEW did a brilliant job with the circumstances. The show was still highly entertaining. Love this young company.
One hell of a opening. Awesome show. And loved how u used the talent for the crowd. I just hope we have a Dynamite show next week. Since u said, next Dynamite. And not next week on Dynamite.
This was my first time watching a whole DYNAMITE show, and boy did it beat expectations! AMAZING JOB!
The way WWE does it makes it seem awkward and forced but AEW addresses it and flows with it.
This show was fantastic. Compared to the other ones I’ve seen this week without a crowd t had energy and was like I was watching an actually TV show instead of a cookie cutter time filler.
Watching WWE this past week it looked awkward af even with Stone Cold, somehow Cody’s promo made me forget there was even a crowd. The guy has a certain aura about him that makes you listen, imagine this guy was stardust a few years ago.
Stone cold promo shouldn't never happened without the crowds it just doesnt make sense
Dunno what u were watching but stone cold's promo was great
@@ultragarrison didnt u watch raw bro that shit was dead I mean his promo is good but without the crowd is just doeant make sense
@@ivanrodriguez3477 i don't remember seeing cody's speech being viral. Stone cold's empty arena hell yeah got the attention of several people
ultragarrison never said it wasn’t great just without the crowd in WWE they haven’t done a good job in making it look less awkward, where as Cody and AEW have.
Cody did this the right way he addressed the situation and reassured everyone that aew is one big family fans talent everyone will get through this together well done.
AEW, you have my heart. I’m a 30 year old man who grew up with Monday Night Wars, Attitude Era! And you guys have brought a sense of authenticity to wrestling that has been missing since those times.
I’m back watching wrestling with my oldest son who is 8. Thank you. Don’t feel like you have to compete against the other brand.....there’s no competition, AEW is king amongst real wrestling fans.
The opening reminded me of when Vince opened up an episode of RAW in 2007 after Benoit's death
And then act like it never happen.
I still mourn him and Eddie😢
@@demoth and from there began my dislike for that company.
Kenny said who knows if there'll be a dynamite nxt week scares me I love AEW more than I ever loved wwe AEW is the reason I smille and look forward to living my heart would break if AEW was no more
WWE killed my love of professional wrestling and these men and this company, all of them. Every wrestler, referee, announcer... All made me remember why I loved wrestling. Thank you
I haven't watched wrestling for years. WWE is the reason for that. Even with an empty arena, AEW captures my attention again. AEW is the reason I watch again and i thank you.
Not gonna lie, it felt a bit odd at first but the more it went on, the more I was into it. It was fun to see ( and hear ) all the wrestlers at ring side. There definitely was a Lucha Underground type of feel to it. Overall, although I did miss the always awesome AEW crowd, it was an interesting experience... BUT MOST IMPORTANT OF ALL I want to thank AEW for not giving up on Dynamite because I honestly find it really hard to cope with the almost total absence of sports at the moment. In times like these we usually would find solace in sports, we watch sports to get all those accumulated worries out of our system and right now we have practically nothing. Pro Wrestling decided to take a stand and I'm really glad they did.
It just seems like yesterday I was watch this
A little did we know this guy would main event WrestleMania 39
There's a certain out of touch old man that needs to take notes. This was very well done.
Yes sir, i think it was done great and we both know who's that old piece of shit is
Like seriously! I wasnt a fan of no audience, While missed, they did it! Waaaaaay better than that other show Ive watched for 25+ years has no doubt!
Christopher Daniels will be livid if he sees this comment lol jk
F that old man and his shitty company he is out of touch is wrestling
AEW marks can never enjoy the show without mentioning wwe 😂😂😂
What an iconic moment! Too bad Cody left :(
This was an amazing opening . Cody you did a wonderful job. All talent and crew thank you for working hard to entertain us through this all .
Stuff like this, and thier continued dedication to please the fans is why AEW will eventually become #1
Like his old man’s “Hard times” speech
Fantastic show opening. I watched it twice.
AEW - NOW IT IS TIME TO SHOWCASE YOUR SOCIAL MEDIA PROWESS. Please give an opportunity to: 1) SHOWCASE people's response, reaction and INTERACTIONS online via TV; 2) GET ALL your staff and wrestlers on the surrounding ring to contribute to the show as a crowd.
Finally someone who gets it
I agree. I don't know about you - but with these empty arena shows - I have all kind of ideas running though my head.
This was a brilliant episode. Small and simple idea of having the other wrestlers as audience was just superb.
Hangman is just so BELIEVABLE. I am quickly becoming his biggest fan
I just KNEW they were going to hold back and save the good stuff for when they were back with the crowds...
Prepare your ass for this episode, all the bombs are dropped. I could hear the crowd pop huge even without them there.
TypetwoAbsolute there won’t be crowds for a long time bud ... not until there is a cure and that’s not likely any time soon probably some time after Christmas
False Messiah not a cure but a vaccine for the virus.
@@falsemessiah9902 Treatments are already being tested and tried, it's vaccines that won't be available until last year, we'll be able to treat people soon
KrowRek no we won’t lol trust
We're almost here
Aew was the best wrestling show of the week I loved how they got the wrestlers who were not fighting to stand in as the crowd unlike wwe which had noooo atmosphere just dead shows n next to no matches lol
I love that both shows tried to give their audience some entertainment in the midst of what is going on. Props to both.
THANK U SO MUCH.THIS SHOW WAS THE FIRST TIME I SMILED ALL WEEK..TIMES HAVE BEEN HARD AND I FORGOT TONIGHT...THANK U
Cody is so smooth, he makes you believe it, because he believes it. Thank you AEW for bringing some cheer in these uncertain times.
It's amazing how cody matured the last few years as a promo guy
I have to say the most amazing opener I’ve seen. Standing behind the elite and AEW all the way. Thank you for the passion you display.
I was in little tears cody giving his speech to the people at home all what's happening now and just being home and you guys giving something to entertainment on my television and tonight's wrestling show was really damn good. love you AEW thanks for a wonderful show.
Who's here after Cody Finished the Story?
Absolutely compelling and riveting dramatization in this historic opening segment! The seamless weaving together of the introduction of the show, the explanation of circumstances in the world surrounding, and the unraveling of this saga truly was a mark of brilliance! The utilization of factions in Elite is definitely a component of professional wrestling which has been missing in other companies.
Man my birthday was on March 3rd so my brother in law bought 2nd row tickets for dynamite on the 13th of May but with all that’s happening I’m not sure that’s gonna happen it would’ve been my first wrestling event and on TV but I hope everything gets better by then even if I don’t get to go to dynamite I just want the world to get better and be able to go to school or work or go outside into large groups without a worry Blessings to you all🙏🏻
GAMA THE DRUMMER good man
you’re a good kid 🔥🔥
I dunno, man. You're still two months away from that show. Maybe I'm being optimistic, but since the outbreak in China has already been contained and dealt with, I'm sure everything will be dealt with by May.
hygor bohm Hubner Thats what I was thinking but then people were saying it wouldn’t end until August but that was before this so hopefully everything will be fixed by then
@@gamathedrummer1532 Yeah, but did you see how fast China managed to erase the outbreak? If they could do it, so can the rest of the world, IMO.
Watching this today is wild. What a 16 months it’s been
Yup but I miss daily's place 😭😭😭
You guys killed it tonight.. Matt Freekin Hardy! Let's Go!!
AEW gets me through this tough time Thank You
Watching this on the day of the last show of the Daily's Place era. It's been a weird and wild ride but it's gonna be great to see AEW on the road again. Daily's Place will always be AEWs home
I never thought of my World as Small before.
Really great promo, great way to conect the storyline of The Elite with the current events
To Tony Khan, the elite and everyone behind the scenes I just want to say thank you for giving me my love of wrestling back.
AEW's generous usage of pyro is one of my favourite aspects of the show honestly, so I was fucking HYPED when they hit the pyro in an empty arena! The show just keeps getting better!
Dusty will be proud of his son glad he's left the toxic wwe
8 Reasons why this was AEWs best show of the year so far:
1: MJF and Sean Spears emulated a side-betting game and betted on the matches making the whole event feel like an illegal/isolated gathering thus excusing the need for a crowd
2. Brody Lee
3: The Hard camera angle was Aimed at the Titantron and not at a side view of the empty seats
4: small gathering of people making noise, cheering and thus compensating very well
5: Matt Hardy debuts keeps name
6: No Lighting of the Seats
7: Sammy Gavarra's commercial cards
8. Brody Lee
9: Chris Jericho
10: Jon moxley
Yep
11: Chris Jericho
12: The opportunity given to the spectating wrestlers to tell their character stories. This couldn't happen so organically with a room full of independent writers.
13: The use of silence in this opening to highlight the fire and energy they managed to capture with the rest of it.
@@samw1501 truly. That part with Colt and kip having a little back and forth while Tony interviewed colt was some good shit
i had the pleasure and honor of meeting cody backstage at a smackdown tryout i had back in jan 2012 in vegas....a real good man in real life....awesome dude
I love how Cody transitioned this from real life into the storyline. Great promo and great show!
Awesome episode of AEW Dynamite tonight and it's awesome to see Woken Matt Hardy and Brodie Lee in AEW!
Woken is wwe. Broken is Matt Hardy.
@@demoth Broken Matt Hardy is way better!
If somehow you find this I want to tell you, you've made it this far through the covid era, keep your chin up. I love you.
I'm aew 4 live best show off the year without crowd brodielee and matt hardy debuts ♥️ ohhh imagine if there was crowd 😭 i love wrestling again
My man🤘🤘🤘🔥
Same here bud👍🍺 wrestling is Back!!
Archer video was also pretty good
It was a great empty show but damn that hometown pop for lee woulda been nuts knowing my city
Cody Rhodes is amazing on the mic love him 😍😍😍
Must be in his blood.
This 7 minute intro is 1000x better than 5 hours of smackdown and raw.
This was chilling that speech felt like Cody finally saw what the heck has happened to the Elite while he was going to war with MJF and he had to rile up the troops to get their shit together and stop arguing with one another.
Looking back, the Jacksonville era of AEW is what made me a forever fan. I watched on and off in 2019 but I now I can't remember the last time I missed a Wednesday night.
This will be known as one of the greatest promos of our time
Aew 💯 giving us everything every week it's way better than wwe and any other wrestling company
Thank you AEW I'm with AEW and soooo proud !!!!! The best show tonight thank you
The way he emphasizes with his hand gestures and even the extra hold on mic makes it fell like he's giving his soul into the promo.
Cody's handling of this week's introduction was legitimate and heartfelt. He could have been in front of 50k people, and the impact would have been just as strong. He managed to deliver in the middle of a world-wide emergency and gave the fans a touch of escape. Wherever he is, Dusty Rhodes would be proud.
This will go down as one of the best openings in the history
I just want to say that I think Kenny Omega has the greatest character ark in pro wrestling history. He's been involved in so many beautiful and interwoven storylines over the years.... Not to mention all of his history making matches. He knows how to play the middle man so damn well. I know Cody said that he believes Adam Page is the best wrestler in the Elite but I'd have to disagree, I believe that title belongs to the best bout machine. When he steps through those ropes, I'm reminded of why I'm a wrestling fan. As for Adam Page, I can see him being the future of AEW down the road with an amazing character ark of his own, they have been doing some incredible stuff with him in AEW.
This opening reminds me of the opening of Chris Benoit special when they we’re celebrating his life after his death. Their were no one there in the audience.
That was in Corpus Christi. I was in line waiting to go in till they told us the show was cancelled and we would be given refunds.
Cody is a legend
