2750792, They got the layup right

I had a long day for sure but the show felt long.

Now that AEW has a deep roster with badass workers and various levels of stars, they’re going to have to tell someone somewhere along the card that a 30 minute epic isn’t gonna happen for them on the show. It’s cool for star ratings but it burns the crowd out if everyone is out there kicking out of finishers and doing piledrivers. More than anything else, THAT almost hurt Hangman’s moment tonight. Almost. It was still badass with some cool little nerdy touches.
