What's the score? I've been in and out. AEW dropping the ball by not having the score up.

3-2 MJF.

75 minute match sucked. There I said it...

I was in the building that night and distinctly remember questioning my life decisions while watching that snoozer. The Aries/Danielson Survival of the Fittest showdown 6 weeks earlier ruled tho. 

I thought the 75 minute match they were referring to was the Greatest Royal Rumble of 2018?

Yeah first match was good, but the 75 minute match was a whole lot of nothing. A lot of the 60 minute draws in that era of RoH sucked hard though with like 30 minutes of rest holds.

Agreed. I tend to hate really long matches. This is why I've been a Chris Hero hater since like 2002! Only Ironman I ever liked was Rock/HHH. Well, and the ROH Crowning A Champion 4 Way was fun live, but brutal on tape. 

No, Bryan and Austin Aries did a 75 minute two out of three fall match in RoH that people herald as amazing for years.

I liked Brock vs Angle where Brock opened by beating Angle with a chair.  Rock vs HHH was great too.  Not thinking of too many more I did really enjoy.

MJF's now gushing.

This is by far, the bloodiest event AEW has ever had.

Shades of Konnan before he sucked!

Hero's best era was when he did the King of the Carvate gimmick. His Punk matches were very overrated.

Damn, MJF went deep on that bladejob.  Looks like a Dusty one.

c I actually never saw the Angle/Brock Ironman. A hurricane knocked power out here and I just never bothered with it. 🤯 is so sad wherever he is these days

Salt of the Earth!!!

Oh god yes. Those Hero/Punk snoozers made Bret/Shawn look like peak Rey/Psicosis. To be fair I was checked out of indie wrestling by the time Hero allegedly learned how to be entertaining. 

MJF with 400 IQ using the blood to become slick.

Oh god yes. Those Hero/Punk snoozers made Bret/Shawn look like peak Rey/Psicosis. To be fair I was checked out of indie wrestling by the time Hero finally learned how to be entertaining. 

I watched them years later, and they did not hold up at all.  Both guys got far better in the following years.

Double crimson mask. Nice

OMG that is a nasty submission.

Aww man. First stream glitch all night. This streaming site is much better than the old one I used

It was a good concept.

Lesnar sacrifices a fall to beat the snot out of Angle with a chair, immediately gets a pinfall to even up the score and a submission to take the advantage, then the story becomes 'can Angle recover from the brutal beating to overcome a rested Lesnar within an hour?'

Damn Bryan's face is fucked up.

THREE MINUTE WARNING!!!

Was game changing for Ironman matches for sure.  Great production on that match.

Crowd chanting for water.

These are my kinds of people.

Super Tombstone Hell yeah!

And that is why MJF is the best. Still selling that knee.

WHAT?!!!! NO OVERTIME?!!!

He survived

Go MJF!!! He is the best in the world!!!
