Did he actually conceal the blade this time?

 

Not sure. I was drifting in and out of the match, looked up and saw the blood.

 

Very face type interview with Adam Cole (bay bay).

And while AEW might not have a drawing face, an argument could be made MJF is the best heel working today. He just needs an epic feud partner.

 

Jungle Boy should be the ultimate face (almost like AEW's Steamboat), but I can't see him getting to the top.

 

Mox vs. Uno next week means Mox is going to have to bleed twice as much since we wouldn't be able to see Uno bleed.

 

Is there where Ruby finally joins the ex-WWE group? I've got to imagine this will lead to something like a women's blood and guts match.

Saraya, Storm, Soho, Athena (?), ???

Britt, Hayter, Shida, Willow, Rosa (?), Jade (?)

 

Mark Briscoe is All Elite now per a TK tweet.

 

I'd say he should have a feud with Moxley leading to a first blood match, but the blow-off match would last about 30 seconds.

 

Just thinking, last time Sami got this big a reaction in Montreal he ripped his own shoulder out of its socket

 

Still amazed by that pop that night. Sami's pop blew Bret's out of the water, and even as "Montreal's own," that's stunning to beat Bret Hart in Canada.

The pop Saturday is going to be massive, +1 if they use the old theme ... and if something crazy happens, they'll probably hear it in Vancouver.

 

Crazy idea time ... Would they actually be crazy enough to have Sami go over on Saturday?
Sami beats Roman for the Pop Heard 'Round the World.
Roman demands his rematch at Wrestlemania, since the Chamber match isn't to set up a No. 1 contender.
Cody points out that the Wrestlemania title shot is still his, no matter who the champ is. So we get Roman vs. Sami on Night 1, Roman wins the titles back, and then Cody gets his moment on Night 2 and wins.
Other than having Roman walk into Wrestlemania as champ and ending his historic reign on a B-level event, and maybe making Cody look a bit weak, it kind of covers all the bases, no?

It could also be their path to splitting the belts. Sami beats Roman, but only gives him a rematch for one of the belts. Then Cody picks who he wants to face after Roman wins the rematch.

 

I've been wondering, too, if they give Sami the win -- even if they hot-shot it back to Roman, or Roman could still come out on top at a later date, but they'd get a pop that would make Punk in Chicago look like a golf clap.

Where does Owens come in? Does Montreal's second favorite son come along to cancel out Solo? I imagine he's got to appear and not just wait until WWE is back in a country where the Usos are allowed to appear.
