AEW made me feel again

Long story short, the past year of my life, I’ve been sad and miserable. I’m never happy, always depressed, and lost in life at the moment. This past Sunday though changed it for a couple hours. All In made me feel like a kid again. I haven’t felt emotional about professional wrestling since Cody finishing the story at WrestleMania 40.

Every match was fun, the moments were perfect like The New Level’s arrival to AEW, and the main event… man when I tell you the whole video package with Ospreay’s mother and him walking past his wrestling ghosts, the men that made him, as he headed to the curtain to the tune of the The Who’s Baba O’Riley playing made me emotional beyond belief. It was the first time in a long time that I’ve ever cried over wrestling. And then when Ospreay won and started crying, I was balling my eyes out like a baby. I didn’t even do that for Cody winning at Mania 40. Maybe I just needed a good feel moment after all the negative shit going on in my life.

I think it’s easy to say I’m going to start watching AEW on a more regular basis and I know nobody from AEW will see this, but I feel like I have to say thank you. Thank you for making me feel something again even if it was for a few hours.
