The Road back to Chicago begins and the Elites descend on Indianapolis. It’s Tiffany’s YouTube Takes featuring Kenny Omega, Shanna, Trent, Pentagon, and more!

Road to Chicago

• So Cody doesn’t want to talk about: Full Gear, the match stipulation, or…
• Chicago is to AEW what New York City is to WWE.
• Cody’s joy when talking about All In is infectious.
• I like that Cody isn’t afraid to take himself out of the picture. It would be so easy for him to book himself into the title spot and he hasn’t.
• That finish was wild AF, not gonna lie. No one could’ve predicted it.
• There’s Waldo.
• Ew, that shit’s nasty.
• Cody fucked his ribs.
• I like this doctor.
• Cody using a road rage story to show the difference between him and the guy he cut off and him and MJF.
• Cody compartmentalizing his feelings is a little creepy.
• I love that ‘He was MY heel. I picked him when nobody wanted him.’
• Cody needing to be back in the ring is nice.
• Look out, MJF, your reckoning is coming.

Being the Elite #181 – Liar Liar

• Kenny and Nakazawa talking is odd. Is this how guys talk to each other?
• Yeah, for fun. Do guys not play games for fun?
• Does Kenny ever wear full length pants away from the ring?
• Dude, can you NOT talk with your mouth full?
• Not fun?
• Are all guys this weird or is it these two?
• Kenny wants revenge on Mox. Good luck.
• DIRTY DEEDS.
• He sucked his own dick on TV? Where was I when that happened?
• Kenny is the worst drunk friend ever.
• Oh, we’re talking about the AAA belt.
• Oh, I’m sure AAA appreciated hearing that you forgot that you were their champion, Kenny.
• Could we get Mox vs Omega for the AAA belt? I want that
• Nick Jackson not knowing where he is.
• Matt’s not even there for backstage stuff?
• Kazarian is such a douche.
• Oh, Matt is here…no, that’s Christopher Daniels, who is now convinced Nick has lost his mind, and I don’t blame him.
• Oh, good on Christopher for being a good sport. I wouldn’t be caught dead in that shirt.
• This Merch Freak thing is creepy and not in a good way.
• Jimmy Havoc talking about the stapler and his fine.
• Havoc is like an over the hill 90s Goth.
• Justin Roberts practicing is always so cool.
• AWW, love the Jackson fam watching the match.
• What the? Tricycle race between Jungle Boy and Daniels/doing the Titanic thing on a trike with Marko Stunt.
• Swingers.com? The fuck you doing, Page?
• Page hanging with Private Party is…something.
• Luchasaurus ruining the fun and being dad.
• The promo between Scorpio Sky and Chris Jericho was amazing!
• HOLY FUCK, ORANGE CASSIDY HAD AN EXPRESSION ON HIS FACE!
• Librarians….YAWN.
• Okay, Inner Circle, I’ll cheer for you getting rid of these two.
• Hey, no attacking the cameraman, he’s doing his job.
• Yeah, that’s creepy and not good.
• I’m not sure who they just bombed into a couch…it looks like Brandon Cutler, hope he’s okay.
• EWW, hands offLeva Bates.

AEW Dark – Naptown Knockdown Fight

No Dasha this week.

Trent vs Pentagon Jr

• I hate that you can’t hear how much the crowd popped for Pentagon.
• Shawn Spears is on commentary, and the mute button is on.
• I do not get Orange Cassidy.
• This was such a good match. I’m glad I’m getting to see more than the backs of people’s heads.
• Pentagon’s chops are SOO loud, I’d hate to think how they’d feel.
• We were all shocked when Trent won, we all thought Pentagon would win.

Big Swole vs Shanna

• Shanna is super sweet. She came back after her Meet and Greet was over because ONE more guy had bought a Meet and Greet picture.
• I admire her being so open about her struggles. She ended her career in October…or she was supposed to, then AEW called her. She didn’t believe Omega when he told her.
• Big Swole doesn’t care about Shanna’s story. She’s called ‘Big Swole’ because she does things big. Guess that’s as good of an explanation as any.
• This is another match I’m glad I’m getting to see better.
• These two work so well together, even in the awkward spots.
• That double stop to the back makes my skin crawl.
• Such a great match, wished this could’ve been on Dynamite.

Leva Bates (With Peter Avalon) vs Awesome Kong (with Brandi Rhodes)

• Leva is so annoying.
• I like Kong’s new look, but the voodoo thing doesn’t work for me.
• Leva using the book as a weapon was both funny and stupid.
• Implant buster and that’s it.

AAA Championship Match – Kenny Omega vs Jack Evans

• This the match that I wasn’t looking forward to. It was a good match, but it went on too long.
• They didn’t show Aubrey Edwards curtsying for us.
• I’m going to admit, I tuned out most of this match.
• I want to get behind Omega, but I just don’t feel him. I don’t see what the hype is all about.
• This match went on way too long for a non-promotion title with a low card tag team member.
• Omega won. I saw him wrestle live. I still wasn’t impressed. Moving on to Chicago.

That’s it for Tiffany’s AEW YouTube Takes! Tune in tomorrow for Dynamite!
