AEW WrestleDream SCOOPS THREAD!
Added 2023-10-01 23:43:30 +0000 UTCOur AEW WrestleDream SCOOPS thread, which will be updated throughout the night! Leave your comments on the show below!
- To reiterate, Jon Moxley was not scheduled to face either Tom Lawlor or Josh Barnett on this show, but his opponent was to be another New Japan Pro Wrestling contingent name. Plans were changed for his match within a couple of days of his concussion
- We're told Katsuyori Shibata vs. Eddie Kingston was finalized in the last couple of weeks.
- For those asking about Edge, several WWE talent have reached out since our report today, saying they "expect" Edge to make the move, but can't guarantee it.
- There has been discussion of the December PPV possibly being on a Friday. It's worth noting that originally Full Gear was slated for a Sunday internally before being moved to Saturday.
- WBD contacts we've spoken to are unaware and in the dark regarding Edge appearing tonight.
- Those we've spoken to in AEW said that Rick Knox not being booked on Dynamite last week was not an accident, but didn't confirm the extent of that.
- Saraya is not at tonight's show.
- For those asking why Fenix needed to be cleared this week, he was banged up on the same spot Moxley was at Grand Slam.
- We've heard Young Bucks vs. FTR long discussed for AEW Full Gear.

2023-10-02 03:23:21 +0000 UTCIs Rick Knox on some sort of suspension bc of his shoddy reffing in the moxley match?

2023-10-02 01:26:30 +0000 UTCAn AEW PPV on a Friday would be amazing. They go so long and I end up missing it or being groggy for work on Monday.

2023-10-02 00:32:27 +0000 UTCJust saw highlights he did the Righteous match unless that was taped prior to this week?
Cory Lamb
2023-10-02 00:29:18 +0000 UTCDecember PPV on a Friday is almost definitely Final Battle.
Ryan Cremeans
2023-10-02 00:27:27 +0000 UTCWasn't Rick Knox on Rampage Friday? Was sure he reffed a match.

2023-10-02 00:25:45 +0000 UTCDamn, that's almost where i was, Sean. I was more around 50% if i'm being honest.

2023-10-02 00:19:26 +0000 UTCIf you listen to the actual owner of AEW in the WrestleDream media call, they aren't at the moment.

2023-10-01 23:58:54 +0000 UTCWhat's your current % that edge shows up SRS?
Troy A Palek
2023-10-01 23:57:37 +0000 UTCThey’re part owners if you ask people on the internet so maybe!
Trevor D.
2023-10-01 23:56:51 +0000 UTCThe PPV will almost assuredly be great either way. I expect him to show but it isn't a make or break type thing, to me anyway.
Troy A Palek
2023-10-01 23:56:40 +0000 UTCYea don’t think Edge is coming in tonight, wouldn’t shock me if it’s a later in the year thing
Chris harT
2023-10-01 23:56:26 +0000 UTCYup, weirdo fans always whine when their fantasy booking doesn't work out how they planned things in their uneducated minds.

2023-10-01 23:54:49 +0000 UTCDid you mean WBD?
Katie Doman
2023-10-01 23:53:18 +0000 UTCDoes it matter the one thing AEW does very well is PPV
Joel Allison
2023-10-01 23:48:18 +0000 UTCI don't know if its a bad thing, I just don't want the critique of the show being based on whether he shows up or not, and I feel like that's whats going to happen.
Jared
2023-10-01 23:47:58 +0000 UTCIs WBD usually “in the know” about AEW debuts or hands off for that?
Will McLean
2023-10-01 23:47:43 +0000 UTCHas there been any speculation about the “new era” comments?
Dennis Puopolo
2023-10-01 23:47:11 +0000 UTCI’ll laugh hysterically
AknowledgeMe
2023-10-01 23:47:03 +0000 UTCWhy do I have bad feeling Edge isn't appearing tonight?
