This is my first G1 and really liking the concept. Matches are different and play to different styles and the 20min limit keeps this going quickly and adds the suspense of matches timing out.

Yep it's still a thing. You thought it went out in the 80s and we were all woke now.

Preview

Digital Media Champion Joe Hendry has brought backup in the form of New Japan Pro-Wrestling’s Yuya Uemura for a tag team showdown with Kenny King and Sheldon Jean this Thursday. King is out for revenge after Hendry embarrassed him with the debut of a new music video entitled “Stripper Kenny”. Both Hendry and King will look to send a message to one another as they prepare for their Digital Media Title bout two days later on Countdown to Slammiversary.

With the high-risk, high-wire, high-stakes spectacle known as Ultimate X quickly approaching at Slammiversary, Mike Bailey and Kevin Knight must first focus on each other in an Ultimate X Preview match. Whoever leaves IMPACT! with the W will gain an important momentum boost heading into the big event. Meanwhile, you can expect the other competitors in Ultimate X to be watching closely as Jonathan Gresham, Angels and KUSHIDA scout their competition.

After Wentz made his shocking IMPACT return and reunited with his fellow Rascal, Trey Miguel, it didn’t take long for the duo to find themselves in a verbal altercation with ABC. This Thursday, will Wentz prove that the Rascalz deserve to be in the conversation for a shot at the IMPACT World Tag Team Titles? Or will Bey continue ABC’s recent hot streak with another victory?

Before the stacked 4-way clash for the IMPACT World Tag Team Titles at Slammiversary, momentum is up for grabs on IMPACT. Two of those teams will face off in traditional tag team competition as Moose and Brian Myers take on Rich Swann and Sami Callihan. Luck has not been on the side of Moose and Myers as of late, and they’re out to prove that they’re a force to be reckoned with in the tag team division.

As Deonna Purrazzo prepares to defend her Knockouts World Title against Trinity in a Slammiversary dream match, “The Virtuosa” will look to make a statement when she holds a Knockouts World Title Open Challange just two days prior on IMPACT. Tensions between champion and challenger began to escalate when Purrazzo hesitated to come to Trinity’s aid during a recent attack from Gisele Shaw and Savannah Evans. Who will answer the call for a shot at the most coveted prize in women’s wrestling? And will Purrazzo make it to Slammiversary as the Knockouts World Champion?

My ten-year-old likes Asuka and Takahashi. I suspect its more related to the bright colors of their ring gear than anything else.

Then again, she used to like watching wrestling with me, and then she got old enough to have her own tastes for entertainment. ;-)

I didn’t realize how much I missed Shida being on TV. She can have a great match with anyone, as evidenced by her match tonight against Marina Shafir. Obviously “the problem” has some growing to do, but I’m pretty sure I just saw her best match thanks almost exclusively to Shida. I’d live to have Hikaru in either belt chase, and the sooner the better. What do you think? Where would she best be used?

Maybe harsh but that's my opinion right now. My cousin purchased the game, ive only played through remote play but honestly its boring. I have been to several aew events and have the gear to prove it, I wanted to support Aew in this but I just can't, There is nothing about this that is better than any alternatives we already have. Day 1 dlc , you cant even have a fucking ladder match with more than 2 people. All I have to say is AEW should be ashamed of themselves , though I love their TV program their game SUCKS.

Jay White is such a good talker and everyone in the group is really douchey, I love them!

Happy Canada Day!
