"I can't even explain how excited they were in WWE about the last 10 minutes of the show. It's actually kind of embarrassing. They were so excited by that final segment. They're all about getting on ESPN, the celebrities are here, AEW could never get celebrities like this. That is their thing. It's the highlight of their world to be associated with this kind of thing." - Bryan Alvarez

Message to the AEW sickos: It's okay to criticize AEW when it's deserved. "They've got everything they need to be so much bigger than they are. But you guys that are diehards won't criticize, you white knight, you hero worship, you say it's all great, there's nothing wrong with it, Bryan's the problem, Bryan needs an edible. You know who wants AEW to beat WWE? Me. And they ain't nowhere close. When I try to point out all these things that hold back growth I am the one that gets yelled at. That's irritating." - Bryan Alvarez

Bryan: "Guys, let it go. If you thought the match was 5 stars, let it go. Why do you need Dave Meltzer to justify or not justify your opinion for? If you liked it, that's great. I love Dave, I do star ratings myself... WHO CARES?" Filthy Tom Lawlor: "There's a group of people who want Dave to rate this so they can go after him for not giving Mercedes a higher rating."

Forget about CM Punk winning the title... the most memorable part of Raw was the low blow Maxxine delivered to poor Dawkins.

"I honestly think the biggest flop of this entire year has been the follow up to Gunther retiring all these guys. He loses to Cody then he loses to Cody twice in one night and now he'll be facing a GM at SummerSlam." - Bryan Alvarez

"It boggles my mind. You really hate AEW so much you're gonna start a show at 11am in Edinburg, Texas because you are so obsessed with maybe costing 3,000-5,000 buys out of 185,000 next month? What the hell?" - Dave Meltzer

Is there a chance the Wembley crowd will boo Kenny Omega at All In? "I think the people that are in that building are going to go there with the idea of it's not professional wrestling... we're going to see the highest of the art form. Which is a totally different thing than with MJF where it would've been babyface/heel." - Dave Meltzer
