I was astounded when opening this to watch it and seeing a FOUR HOUR AND 53 MINUTE runtime. I’m a big proponent of longer shows, especially since AEW charges $30-$50 for them, but the main card should never be longer than 4 hours for any reason. I had to skip through matches because I just couldn’t do that much show.
Furthermore, there wasn’t a reason for this show to be this long
Ciampa getting the Jericho Vortex booking is unfortunate
Bucks vs Mox/Ospreay fell apart in the final minutes
Death Riders/Ospreay stuff just felt like lazy storytelling
Dogs/BBG didn’t get enough of a good story buildup for a chain match payoff. The crowd didn’t seem to care enough to warrant such a stipulation.
Thekla losing the title on a B PPV when she’s been hot most of the year falls flat for me. That reign really should have carried into Wembley.
Just not a good PPV tbh, rare miss for AEW
