    Damn. The transformation DDP has helped make to Buff and Riggs is UNREAL.

    I don't care if it's WWE, AEW or some indie. Just let me see them come out together to their old American Males theme one last time.

    I’m very curious how AEW books this. Does Sting go out with a loss at the hands of the EVPs? Do you send a legend out with a loss? Or is the nuclear heat it will generate worth it?

    Darby is supposed to go climb Everest this spring, so he’s only got a couple of weeks until he goes to Kathmandu and starts the trek to Base Camp. If he and Sting win, does he do an injury angle or drop the belts for a tag team tournament?

    My hope: they win and relinquish
    My expectation: Bucks win with shenanigans, but Sting and Darby stand tall at the end

    Perhaps Bucks get an upper hand, but someone who's not Flair-aged decrepit from Sting's past comes out to help Sting and Darby. DDP? Did Sting ever really cross paths with Goldberg?

    What if Sting wins and then on Weds the Bucks use their “power” to take the titles or Dusty up the decision somehow? Or just awards it to themselves a la HHH and Bishoff?

    Crowd goes home happy, Sting goes out undefeated, Bucks keep whatever this authority gimmick is going, and Tony doesnt have to book another tournament. Everyone wins!

    I always thought Sting was enough of a traditionalist to go out on his back.

    I think if Sting was in a meaningful singles match he’d lose…… I think in this scenario he and Darby should go over

    Never even thought about this -- AEW's relationship with Owen's family.

    Yeah, I thought about Owen when Sting did his entrance. For all that AEW does to be annoying, they seem like they have their finger on the button when it comes to doing the right thing.

    A 40-minute promo segment to start the show.
    The writers backstage trying to now figure out how to cut three segments from the show:

    If Roman and Rock lose the tag match to bar the Bloodline, is that where they debut Tama Tonga? Or are they keeping him separate from the Bloodline stuff?

    I've said it before: if they can work out some miracle rental, that crowd would pop huge for Dustin to appear to help even the odds.

    And is it looking too far into it that Rock flashed the "L" again instead of the closed fist and index finger, before then closing the fist? Or does Rock just not know the signal?
