Got everything I wanted out of that six-person tag: Aussie Open and Rappongi VIce bumping like mad, WIll Ospreay landing on his feet no matter what, and Cassidy giving off his Senor-Cardgage-another-kind-of-cool.

Tony Schiavone is getting disrespect from all corners this week.

Also, I cannot believe that Milwaukee got to see the AEW debut of The Rainmaker Kazuchika Okada.

the announce desk talking up Marina Shafir had me singing,

"Marina Shafir is getting better
She's getting better
All the time
(she can't get no worse!)"

FUCKING SHINGO AND HIROMUUUUUUU

I'm bringing my Daryl to the show.

I really hope that after Forbidden Door, they just don't have other companies' titles (including ROH) on Dynamite or Rampage for a few months.

Probably you won't get your wish. I have a feeling that Forbidden Door will end with someone in NJPW holding an AEW title and/or vice-versa, plus sometime this summer I expect an announcement about what's going on with Ring of Honor -- i.e. whether Honor Club (the streaming service) will continue or be folding into a new bigger streaming service, or a TV deal, etc. -- plus Samoa Joe's still got his ROH TV title to defend.
