Why does Statlanders reign feel like what a babyface women's world champ would be

This match has felt really dangerous. I feel like every other spot has me expecting someone to go out on a stretcher...
3 Things I want:
1, Julia as TBS champion
2, Julia as the new Supreme of the House of Black
3, Bunny, Abadon, and Julia as a trios
This show gonna fuck.
For real. I was a bit suspicious when it was announced, but there really are several huge dream matches. And with Tony's hype, who knows what else will happen? Edge appearance? Mercedes Mone? A complete let down?
AEW doesn't consistently build PPVs but I never feel like a show is going to suck. If anything I feel it's always guaranteed to deliver.
Especially hyped for that 4 way tag just for the chaos
"The pay per view hasn't even started yet! We gave you that shit for free!"
Mox killing it again
"I'm not used to holding championships, I'm used to holding grudges" - Eddie Kingston, probably
Taz in top form. Love it.
That was a fucking great TBS championship match. I think my favorite women's match in quite a while.
Seriously. Those two knocked it outta the park.
Posted this early so people can see the early start time (6:30 ET / 3:30 PT).
The Callis family have some damn good chemistry.
Great, now I can't get the visual of JR scissoring someone out my head...
Holy shit, the Last Supper painting for the Don Callis family...
MJF is a true white meat scumbag babyface brother
I'm shocked at what a great face MJF is. Just shows how he has everyone, including me, eating out of the palm of his hand.
Yay! Mox is here!
Glad he's well enough to travel. Can't wait to see him back in the ring!
Yeah the fact he can travel is a good sign. Hopefully he isn't out too long.
Damn Mox is killing it on commentary.
Yeah, he's pretty much doing play by play and color at the same time.
I have a feeling the House isn't going to win tonight
I'm ready to have my heart broken again

Nice stalling suplex by Tito
Love a good stalling suplex.
Is Caster wearing an MJF shirt? lol
BREAD CLUB REPRESENT!
Someone in the crowd is holding a sign that is just Nishiki's face (from the yakuza video game series) and trying to figure out why is making me crazy.
I legit wanted The Righteous to win ;__;
Yeah, I'm a little disappointed they lost clean too.
EDIT: Clean's the wrong word. I guess I was expecting more shenanigans leading to an MJF win
Lost clean? Every big moment in the match was MJF cheating including using the ropes for leverage on the pin.
Yeah, true. Don't mind me, I'm still a little out of it.
Lol, no problem. Been a long weekend for me to so I get it. And I wouldn't worry about the righteous, losing to MJF won't bury them.
Man I hope so. I've loved what I've seen from them so far.
And I'm just coming out of 8 days in the hospital. I'm all sorts of groggy lol
Same here. Would have really established them as a force to go over the champ.
Same, in hindsight the match is weird to think about. I guess the ROH Tag Titles are more important to the story
I can't believe there were no shenanigans in that match
I love you Nigel but it's pronounced Christian not Christy-on lol
Those Shibata forearms looked STIFF
So FTR are definitely winning tonight.
We get Young Bucks vs FTR 4 at some point
Classic AEW chaotic style of match.
Yeah my money was on the Bucks. They gotta avenge their loss at All In.
As slimy as he is, Don is a great manager for his family
Don with his own last dinner, sounds like a narcissistic ego maniac to me
Post show thoughts:
The show was worth the price on the BD vs ZSJ match alone.
MJF absolutely went full scumbag to retain against The Righteous and I'm all for it. #OurScumbag
Kingston vs Shibata did not disappoint.
Julia Hart vs Statlander was awesome. Getting REAL tired of the "one women's match" stuff, though.
I swear Darby is made of fucking rubber. Darby... don't die. Please.
I love hating Carny Piece of Shit, and his family.
Fucking seriously, BD vs ZSJ was a masterclass of a match. Watch it however you can.
Son of the Year, Nick Wayne.
Battle of the Adams! Page vs Cole vs Copeland. Book it, Tony!
I'm rooting for Father of the Year Christian Cage
