I was figuring that they do something and both of their arms get draped over the other and the ref counts the pin and awards both of them the match.Britt Baker vs Big Swole got bumped up to the main card.
Looks like Peter Avalon vs Brendan Cutler is now on the Buy In. Both men are trying to get their first win. Watch end in a time limit draw
Miro (Rusev) says no Twitch stream tonight. Possible conflict with another certain event going on tonight? Miro is also a giant troll on social media too. Take your pick

Sammy/Hardy was booked brilliantly
Hardy got knocked the fuck out. That match ended way earlier than planned
My guess is that part was taped beforehand. That bump never happened. With Hardys career on the line (which I thought was a bizzare stipulation earlier in the week) it created all sorts of confusion as to whether Hardy's career would end on a botch. Was he really hurt? If it was a work and now they take that and organically recreate the Broken character it was incredible. So much drama. Now a new Broken Matt. I loved it.
From PWI:
Matt Hardy has been taken to a local hospital after getting hurt taking a spear off an elevated platform through a table during AEW All Out, a spot that saw Sammy Guevara and Hardy overshoot the table and Hardy slam down hard on the concrete with Guevara landing atop of him. We are told it's a precautionary measure to have him checked out and possibly get an MRI to evaluate any possible injury.
Hardy was obviously out on his feet, leading to the bout to be stopped temporarily before resuming and going right to the scheduled finish.
AEW stated during the FTR vs. Adam Page and Kenny Omega match that the bout continued as Hardy was cleared by AEW's head of medical, Dr. Doc Sampson.
There were 3 camera cuts on 10 foot fall and it wasn't in front of a crowd so I assumed it was an angle.
If they allowed a severly concussed wrestler to continue a match that was a terrible decision
Agreed. The wrestler is always going to say he's okay (along with most athletes I'd assume) to continue the match. It's up to the doctor to tell the wrestler that no, you're not okay, it needs to be stopped.If they allowed a severly concussed wrestler to continue a match that was a terrible decision
Easily AEW's worst PPV. Granted their other shows have been great so its a high bar but still. It wasn't overly bad but more just a big old bag of "meh".
LOL at that Matt Sydal botch though.
And yeah, Hardy was fucked up. They shouldn't have continued that match. He was punch drunk, stumbling around and almost pulled Sammy's tights down not knowing what he's doing
First AEW ppv I've watched since Full Gear. Pretty much trash until the last 4 matches. I'm seeing the same things I was seeing back then. A bunch of high spot guys doing basically the same stuff then the top of the card delivering good solid matches with storytelling. So in other words the guys who have been on the big stage before know what they're doing and the others have no clue yet
