I saw the ending and it was as bad and lame as the exploding barbed wire match that Terry Funk and Cactus Jack had in IWA Japan many years ago.
Now.. There's no way anyone in AEW can defend being called a lame ass wrestling company. Right now they're as big a laughingstock as Jeff Jarrett's Global Force Wrestling was.
Congrats, it's well deserved that AEW is a laughingstock of the wrestling world now.
AEW World Champion Kenny Omega was reportedly angry after last night’s Exploding Barbed Wire Deathmatch main event at the AEW Revolution pay-per-view.
As noted, last night’s match saw Omega retain his title over Jon Moxley. After the match, the 30-minute timer kept counting down to a full explosion of the ring area. Moxley was still down in the ring, with Eddie Kingston covering him to potentially save him from the explosion. It was expected that the timed explosion would be this huge, grand blast, but it was a dud. The lackluster explosion led to a significant amount of negative feedback on social media.
Omega was said to be “furious” at the finale, according to Bryan Alvarez of Wrestling Observer Live. No other details were provided, but Omega was not happy with how the ending went down. (I bet he was, I JUST BET, he was, hahahahahahaha.. That's what you get for trying something you're obviously not qualified enough to do, dipshits).
On a related note, AEW is apparently trying to keep clips of the dud blast off social media. They made several DMCA (Digital Millennium Copyright Act) takedowns on Twitter accounts today, with most, if not all, of the DMCA requests being for clips that were from the main event. AEW usually allows accounts to post GIFs from matches, and in the past they have said GIFs will be safe from DMCA requests.
Here's a link to the weak ending.. Hopefully it won't be pulled because Tony Khan is so embarrassed knowing he's a joke in Wrestling now. https://twitter.com/i/status/1368837062997204995
