#team bcc in the elite vs bcc

Eddie Kingston saves Jon Moxley from the Young Bucks' superkick AEW x NJPW: Forbidden Door 2023

[renee-ckstrong]

Also I have just realised a pattern.

Every year, the winners of the last Blood and Guts come back and compete as the heels.

2021: Inner Circle (Faces) vs. Pinnacle (Heels)

2022: BCC (Faces) vs. JAS (Not technically the same as the Inner Circle but Jericho, Hager and Guevara are returning) (Heels)

2023: The Elite (Faces) vs. BCC (Slight lineup change. Eddie, Santana, Ortiz out. Takeshita, Bryan, Pac in.) (Heels)

2024: Team AEW (Faces) vs. The Elite (Golden Lovers out, Okada and Scapegoat in) (Heels)

Now sure there are discrepancies in the team lineups but it's pretty conclusive that if you're a babyface Blood and Guts team, you will inevitably be the heels next year. Although this probably won't continue to next year, because I don't see how 'Team AEW' can become heels for next years match.

[bang-bang-gang]

bitching under the cut sorry

last year's bcc vs elite feud was so juicy... so interesting and fun.. i loved every beat of it

now i love the CONCEPT of evps vs team aew and i love the bucks' current gimmick but the execution of the storyline stinks. theyve replaced the only interesting guy on the team b/c of injury with a guy who was injured just a few weeks ago and apparently still isnt 100%. ive actively grown to hate bryan danielson (sorry). i have already bitched enough about ftr on this blog

i just want all the guys i like back already. yuta and mox and hangman. i feel like this whole feud just constantly has me go okay soon these guys will be back and things will be good actually. but its radio silence on hangman and nobody knows what moxs deal is and obviously yuta needs more time off. not hating on the performers btw (please take as much time off as you need forever and always) i just want characters involved here that are actually likeable.............

im also so bored of the majority of the show but i am TOO invested in willow vs mercedes, toni/mariah, and swerve vs christian to stop watching. and i dont wanna skip the bucks' stuff because their gimmick is just so fun i just need ftr gone from my screen already please im begging go feud with the house of black or something

Most Beloved AEW Wrestler Tournament Round 2 Statistics Dump

Followers: 168

Total Votes: 13,148 + 11,439 = 24,587 (Considering round 2 only lasted half the time as round 1, nearly matching the vote count is impressive)

Times I accidentally included a wrestler twice without noticing: 1 (fuck you Matt Sydal for being so generic and sorry to the 74 people who have voted for him at some point, he's now my personification of every failure I've ever had)

Beloved By Gender

So before starting, we had a ratio of 23.9% women, 0.7% nonbinary and 75.4% men

After round 1, that shifted to 24.8% women, 1.5% nonbinary and 73.7% men

After round 2, the numbers have shifted even more in favor of not-men

Which means women and nonbinary wrestlers are kicking the men's asses in terms of overall belovedness

Voting Trends

We're still on an upwards trend for votes, still featuring the epic highs and crushing lows of popularity days, but had the first day to break 2000 votes!

Day 16: also known as the day everyone decided that if Punk wasn't going to move on, he may as well lose to Willow. Also the day of everyone deciding that if someone from the BCC had to be eliminated, it was Chuckie T who had to do it to em

The Great Ties

In round 1, as we all know, Darby and Jack tied exactly at 85 votes apiece. It was decided they would both move on to round 2 in order to duke it out once more. Then they both lost. Darby lost to The Butcher by 20 votes and Jack lost to Trish Adora by 35 votes. This marks the end of both of their journeys with Darby getting a total of 193 votes and Jack finishing one slot above him at 216 total votes.

No one brought it up, but there was a tie in round 2 as well. Both Kota Ibushi and Mr. Brodie Lee earned a total of 79 votes. Working from the great tradition of precedent, they'll both be moving on to round 3.

And the near-tie that broke everyone's heart, Anthony Bowens VS Hangman Adam Page. The closest contest thus far that was separated by a single vote in Bowens' favor. Our cowboy will ride into the sunset and Anthony will live to scissor another day

Jurassic Express: Luchasaurus (142) moves on but Jack Perry (131) lost to Trish Adora (and a moment of silence for Marko, who is dead)

[danwhobrowses]

I'm sorry if you think All In Wembley's card is not 'Good Enough'

I honestly am, because you must really be finding ways to make sure you're disappointed in the event.

Let me remind you that the original All In had MJF vs Matt Cross (fka Son of Havoc in Lucha Underground), Flip Gordon vs Lethal, Okada (and not Rainmaker Okada, red dye and party balloons Okada) vs Marty Scurll, Hangman vs Janela (followed by grown men in dick outfits coming out so Joey Ryan could show up), Omega vs Penta, and CD vs Stephen Amell. All this on the main card while SCU vs the Briscoes were on the pre-show. If AEW did something like that today for a PPV it'd be ripped to shreds on paper, especially since some matches were announced with little to no build, but it was the best wrestling show of that year and is still a pivotal and momentous event in wrestling history.

So I'm sorry that you didn't get Omega/Ospreay III because New Japan likely want it for Wrestle Kingdom, I'm sorry early reports of Omega being in a trios match (against two men he brought into the limelight, including a faction he once led, and teaming with his closest friend/lover and his former tag partner who he was champion with) and Ospreay/Jericho turned out to be true, I'm sorry you're getting Punk, Joe, Adam Cole, the Elite, FTR, Kota Ibushi, Jay White, Eddie Kingston, the BCC, Hikaru Shida, Toni Storm, Sting, Chris Jericho, Will Ospreay and more on a single show - which has already had to deal with injuries to Bryan Danielson, PAC and Jamie Hayter - and you still think it's not enough, but that's a you problem.

Also stop with this 'no build' nonsense; multiple storylines have been built from segments over the past few months, Eddie vs Claudio started in March for christ's sake.

[mjfass]

So many genius things happened in those last few minutes. Setting up a Claudio vs PAC angle, PAC getting payback for Moxley abandoning him during that tag team match 3 years ago, the BCC sacrificing their toughness in the face of protecting each other destroying their own mission statement, Kenny after a series of big losses showing his strength and endurance and craftiness, the Elite working together as a proper destructive unit always finding constant ways to work together against the BCC who were falling apart the more and more their dominance got challenged, Moxley having to be the one who eats the submission. Godddddddddddddddddd

The fact that they already confirmed Claudio vs PAC in two days for the ROH Championship was a great thing. When they had they little face off during the beginning of the match I knew it was leading to something. Also, let’s not forget Mox tapping out to save Yuta… there are a lot, A LOT of cool things they can do with that, including a face turn for The BCC. I’m curious of the consequences this match will have!

[galaxy-brain-rasslin]

Just some quick thoughts on All In. There will be spoilers.

Zero Hour

I, 100% did not expect Adam and MJF to win, at all. I expected there to be the initial start of a betrayal or something. I was pleasantly surprised, since I love the two of them.

Aussie Open seems really good. I should probably check out ROH.

Hook is one of my favorite anime protagonists, and Jack Perry has improved so much by being a complete piece of shit.

Also, Taz being hyped up for everything Hook does will literally never get old. Dude just sounds so proud every damn time.

CM Punk vs Samoa Joe

I don't really care a whole lot about CM Punk. I've seen a few of his pre-AEW matches, and I think he cuts a fun promo. I also think he's clearly enjoying himself, which makes watching his matches more enjoyable, in their own way.

That said, watching Samoa Joe just beat the absolute fuck out of Punk for most of the match was beautiful. I missed Joe in the original ROH and TNA/Impact, but his NXT and WWE stuff was so fun. Joe works at such a great pace, too. He literally always feels like a threat.

Seeing "real world championship" in quotes every time they mention CM Punk’s belt always reminds me of when AJ Styles was being announced in WWE as "The Man Who Would Like to be Announced as 'The Face that Runs the Place'"

Golden Elite vs Bullet Club Gold w/ Takeshita

Juice Robinson is my favorite feral little gremlin in pro wrestling.

Jay White is a beautiful piece of shit and I love him for it. He's also so fucking good in the ring.

Takeshita is also fantastic and has been consistently great.

I love how much everyone hates Don Callis.

Golden☆Lovers OTP

Hangman Adam Page is one of all-time favorite wrestlers. Just always happy to see him out there.

Ibushi tried to murder people with his kicks and it was fantastic shit.

A shitty surprise pin on Kenny Omega is absolutely on brand. I was peeved in a good way.

FTR vs Young Bucks

Fuck the Revival. I also like FTR a lot. Been a fan of theirs since NXT, and I loved seeing them draped in gold not that long ago.

I don't always feel like watching a Young Bucks match, but I always enjoy the match when it's done.

FTR and the Bucks were top-tier tag team wrestling today.

I legitimately expected FTR to lose, given the legal troubles that Cash could be facing. Seeing FTR win was a nice surprise.

FTR having arm bands for Brodie Lee, Bray Wyatt, and Jay Briscoe was so sweet, and so sad.

Stadium Stampede

Find someone who loves you as much as Eddie Kingston hates Claudi Castagnoli.

Mox looked so fucking cool walking out.

Oh my god, Trent, why, what the fuck. Please stop.

Someone getting skewers stabbed into their heads will always make me wince and laugh simultaneously.

Penta being walked backstage by medics only to return as Penta Oscuro was amazing shit. Penta is great.

Wheeler Yuta is the perfect person in BCC to be a bloodthirsty little goblin that you want to see eat the pin. He does his job well.

Also Best Friends hugging Yuta only to beat him up was gold.

I lost track of what was happening at least 400 times during the match and I don't care. I was thoroughly entertained.

Dr. Britt Baker, DMD v. Toni Storm v. Saraya v. Hikaru Shida

I assumed Saraya was going to win as soon as I saw her come out to Queen with her entire goddamn family walking out.

Toni Storm is a beautiful disaster.

In the event that Saraya wouldn't be winning, I didn't want Britt to win.

But that's also primarily because I *wanted* Shida to retain. Also, I love that Shida's theme has big 90s X-Men vibes.

Shida in general is just great. She should win every match.

I also just had no real investment in Brit for this match. She just kinda felt like she could have been nearly any other woman from the women's division. She wasn't *bad* by any means, just not someone I was pulling for or against.

I'm curious to see what happens with this implosion of the Outcasts now that Saraya and Toni aren't on good terms.

I dislike Ronnie Radke musically and as a person, so I'm not really thrilled at the idea of hearing Saraya's music more now that she's the champ.

At the same time, given all the shit she's been through, I can't be too mad about them giving her a run.

I still want Shida to have an actual good, long run though. I love her matches.

Christian Cage & Swerve vs. Darby Allin and Sting

Schiavone shouting "IT'S STING" is one of my favorite things in wrestling.

Joker Sting is fun as hell.

Swerve is actually the coolest motherfucker on the entire roster, and it is a literal crime that he doesn't have a belt.

Christian Cage is a menace and I can't get over that he wrestles in a sleeveless turtleneck now.

Darby is here for a good time, not a long time.

Sting is SIXTY-FOUR GODDAMN YEARS OLD AND SHOULD NOT BE DOING THIS STUFF.

Darby shouldn't either, but I'm fairly certain he's not even human anymore.

I love Swerve.

I also love Prince Nana.

Getting all of Wembly to shout "Swerve's house" probably felt cool.

This was fun as hell.

Will Ospreay vs Chris Jericho

bruv

Ospreay is so fucking good, dude. Like he's absolutely up there as one of the best to do this. Every match I've seen of his just blows me away.

Jericho is also absolutely one of the most versatile wrestlers of all time. I've seen this man reinvent himself like a dozen times, and every time feels just as natural as the one before it.

If they had Jericho win, there was going to be a riot.

Plz give me more Ospreay matches. Dude can fucking go.

I'm curious to know what happens with Jericho and Sammy now

House of Black vs The Acclaimed and Billy Gunn

HOB walking out with a lantern 😭

The Fireflies 😭

HOB looks so cool in white, holy shit.

I love Julia's hats.

I am not a cop, so obviously I love The Acclaimed.

Billy Gunn coming out in full-on Badd Ass Billy Gunn trunks made me feel like I was 12 again.

I love HOB, but if The Acclaimed didn't win this, after their whole mini arc of Gunn retiring, and Gunn bringing back BABG, I was gonna be mad.

Is there a rule that someone has to wreck Julia's shit every match, because lmao

A lot of fun.

Brody King scares the hell out of me.

Adam Cole vs. MJF

I went into this expecting heartbreak

Adam Cole, who took character inspiration from Handsome Jack from Borderlands 2, comes out sporting some definite Broderlands-vibe gear.

MJF is still wearing BTYBB gear.

MJF as this babyface-leaning thing is actually some of the greatest shit I've ever seen. The whole turmoil over using a weapon feels like Roddy Piper vs Bret Hart.

Cole being a desperate POS to the confused, hurt, and mad MJF was wonderful.

The tombstone onto the announce desk with metal reinforcement was brutal on my knees as a viewer.

lol Roddy. lmao.

MJF and Cole almost having a total falling out after the match was amazing.

Cole opting not to slam the AEW belt into MJF's head after the match, and they hug instead? Cinema.

Was I still deeply concerned that there was going to be a betrayal literally up until the PPV feed stopped? Oh hell yes. I watched Ciampa turn on Gargano after the little copyright stuff showed up in NXT. I will *still* be concerned about that until the moment it happens.

That said, I genuinely don't want it to happen because these dudes work so well together. They're just so fucking dorky in the best way.

Misc. Other Thoughts

I missed whatever happened with Miro and Hobbs, because I just missed the whole first hour of Zero Hour.

Apparently there was Drama involving Punk and Jack Perry-- I guess related to the use of actual glass in the windshield of the car that Hook and Perry wrestled on? Whatever. Punk isn't why I watch this stuff, but I would rather Perry not get screwed.

Why did they keep panning over to Mercedes Moné if she wasn't gonna do anything other than vibe to The Acclaimed's theme?

That being said, I was loving the wig she had on. I've been liking the shorter-cut wigs compared to the long-ass stuff she was wearing as Sasha Banks

A lot of people kept expecting Edge to show up at some point. I'm pretty sure I saw somewhere that his contract was extended.

Overall, this was, in all honesty, probably the best wrestling PPV I've ever watched. And, thanks to the invention of VHS tapes in my youth and the WWE Network as an adult, I have seen a *lot* of PPVs. This felt bigger than any Wrestlemania I've watched. I can't compare it to Wrestle Kingdom because I've never actually seen one of those all the way through. But it had numerous people who have been in Wrestle Kingdom matches, which were great.

I'm just annoyed that All Out is next goddamn week, because I don't want to shell out $100 in two weeks for this stuff.

Regardless. I love wrestling. We are in one of the greatest eras of pro wrestling, if not *the* greatest. What a time to be a fan.

Kenny x reader x Claudio

Prompt: Claudio and Kenny speak to each other in French, which the reader can't understand. They pass her back in forth, praising her, degrading her, all in a language she can't even understand.

Warnings: potentially garbage google translate lol, some praise, degradation in another language, smut ofc) Eiffel tower formation (it'll make sense, iykyk ;)), DP, M/F/M (male genitals touch, but it's not M/M)

A/N!!!! I recommend having google translate open while you read, it makes things easy to understand. Unless of course, you understand French lol. In any case, I hope you enjoy what lay ahead! Also @besthimbomachine, just in case you wanted to be tagged, I said I would!

Tonight started like any other night. Dynamite started, all building to the main event. Kenny was in his dressing room waiting for his match, and I waited with him. Nothing unusual.

Until.

During the main event, with BCC vs the Elite, there was a particular animosity between Claudio and Kenny, constantly trying to outdo the other, and singling each other out.

Backstage, their own fighting was putting me on edge. But, then the bell rang, and Claudio had pinned one of the bucks. With a sigh of defeat, I didn't realize that Kenny powered out of the ring, Claudio hot on his tail. It just looked like Claudio was going for another victim, so I didn't think twice about it.

But when I opened the door, two large men stood in front of me instead of the one I was used to. Claudio was right behind Kenny, both of their chests heaving from the run back here.

"Hi guys, awesome match. You gonna come in?" I wasn't sure who my question was directed towards, but they answered by turning to each other, a quick mumble of some french from Kenny, making Claudio nod and walk away to his own dressing room.

"That was odd. What's up with him?" I let Kenny pass. Immediately, he changed, letting both the men's strange behavior roll off his back.

Kenny shook his head, making a face as if he had no idea what I was talking about.

"He's been weird all night I think. I don't know. We should get back to the hotel before everyone else gets out. We have more Smash to play." Kenny poked a finger in my chest, and I couldn't help but roll my eyes. Since we've had our room, we've been playing Super Smash Bros with the Young Bucks. We kept winning, and I was talking big game about how I could kick Kenny's ass too (despite not being the worst player, Kenny was carrying the team), so now he wanted a match with me.

With a shake of my head, and a sigh of faux exasperation, I picked up my things to follow him to our rented car. The hotel was across the street, but there was no use walking, as we'd be swamped by fans.

The way back to our room was entirely normal, talking and bantering as if Kenny hadn't lost, wasn't exerted at all, like it was just any other night. I was beginning to wonder if something was up, but I didn't ask.

Kenny's playful nature kept me distracted as we took off our clothes from the day. Neither of us thought twice when I took one of his shirts from my luggage to throw on top of a pair of short shorts.

While Kenny cleaned up in the bathroom, he had me setting up Smash. It didn't take too long, even though I had to figure a few things out on the fly. I was about to get my ass handed to me if I couldn't figure out setting up the game itself.

Luckily I got things set up fully before Kenny was done. He would never let me live down not being able to get through the menu screen.

And when Kenny came out he gave me a warm smile. The kind that made his face look so soft and warm. The kind I fell in love with. But before I could tease him for "taking so long", there was a knock on the door. It wasn't totally odd for someone to stop by, but it still caught me off guard.

"Can you get that baby? Let me put a shirt on." I hopped up while Kenny threw on a shirt real quick. I hummed to myself, hastily opening the door because if anyone, I expected the Bucks to be there.

But instead, Claudio stood in the doorway, freshly bathed himself. My face scrunched in confusion at the sight. It wasn't often that Claudio played games with Kenny, and not usually on Wednesday nights.

I went to turn to look for Kenny, only to bump into his warm chest. All I could do was look up and back at him as his hands moved to sit on my hips, keeping me there for the moment.

Kenny and Claudio shared a look. The taller man stepped inside, Kenny pulling me back, so the door could close.

With the door shut, both men stood incredibly close. The only thing that broke me out of my thoughts was Kenny clearing his throat to grab my attention.

"I may have made a bet with Claudio the other night. One where the prize would've been your body for the night." A blush heated my face at his words and what they meant. So that's why Claudio was so eager to follow Kenny after the match. That's why they fought particularly hard against each other.

"The bet was one of us had to pin the other, but I can't go back on my word completely. So I told him I'd share. I should've told you first, but I knew you'd love the surprise." Kenny smirked against my ear before pulling away, standing up and pressing himself against me. His growing erection pressing against my lower back.

"N'hésitez pas à l'emmener au lit." His smooth voice easily switched to French. I wasn't sure when he learned, as he had never told me, but I didn't question. Nor did I get the time to ask when Kenny pulled away, Claudio swooping in and sweeping me off my feet.

The effortless way he carried me had me blushing and shivering at the thought of what else he could use his strength for.

As if a switch had been flipped, Claudio relaxed, turning back to banter with Kenny in French, all while keeping me in his arms.

"Sait-elle ce que nous disons ?" He asked, a smirk on his face as he looked at Kenny.

When my boyfriend shook his head, Claudio looked back down at me, tutting with feigned pity.

"Pauvre petite chose." With those last words, I was dropped to the bed below, squeaking from surprise.

Now the two men circled me around the bed, wondering what to do next.

Kenny made the first move, pinning my arms down. Claudio didn't leave any time in between to linger, moving down on top of me and pinning my hips down with his large hands.

I felt both of their eyes rake over me and the way Kenny's shirt lifted above my hips to expose my racy underwear. Their exchange of words above me went unnoticed, my focus entirely on Claudio's hands moving up under the fabric to feel up my waist.

One of Kenny's hands stroking my face brought my focus back to their words that I couldn't even understand.

"Voulez-vous qu'il vous utilise?" Kenny's smooth voice sounded, and I tried to make sense of what he was saying. My confused look earning a dark chuckle from him.

When Claudio kissed the soft skin of my inner thigh, and Kenny's hand on my cheek moved to my throat to squeeze lightly, I nodded, eager for anything.

"Please Kenny, need to you touch me." I asked him, but directed my words to both of them, to whoever would listen and touch me.

But his hand shot up to drip my jaw, forcing me to look at Claudio perched between my legs, waiting for my response.

"Tsk tsk, tu dois lui demander bébé." That fake pity was back in his voice, and it made me shiver with delight. Being their stupid little toy that didn't understand, and only wanted more. It was too perfect.

So I looked to Claudio, Kenny pulling his hand away. I opened my mouth, and my legs further to make room for him.

"Claudio, please. I want you to, need you to touch me. Fuck, make me feel full please." My voice shook with my pleas, needing one of them to fill me up, or do something.

Without another word, Claudio worked my underwear down my thighs and licked his way to my clit before sucking on it gentle, groaning to himself at the taste.

Kenny moved to the side more so he could take my hand and grind against it while Claudio worked two fingers into me.

I threw my head back, a strangled whine leaving my lips at the welcome intrusion.

"Si ça la rend comme ça, on pourrait la briser." Claudio teased to Kenny, both men chuckling.

Kenny moaned at my side as my hand provided him some relief from his nearly painful erection, reveling in his own pleasure before acknowledging the other man.

"Vous n'avez même pas vu comment elle est sur votre bite. Attends, ça va mieux." With Kenny's reply, Claudio stood, shedding his shirt to reveal his shredded body. It was large and attractive, but in a different way to Kenny. He was strong, and his muscles defined. But it wasn't Kenny.

Although I could still appreciate it since he's right in front of me.

Claudio slowly teased his pants and underwear down his hips, enjoying the way my eyes lingered on the veins that lead down beneath the fabric, right to what I wanted.

With one last tug, his cock was free as he proceeded to rid himself of the fabric of his shorts. I bit my lip when I met his dark gaze. He was a bit longer than Kenny, but not as thick. But the size didn't matter, I knew he was going to ruin me no matter what he had.

Soft lips pressed against my ear after Kenny shifted on the bed to lay beside me for a moment.

"Maintenant soyez bon. Je lui ai dit de ne pas être gentil, alors écoute. D'accord?" The lilt in his voice that told me he was asking a question prompted an immediate nod to me. Not fully knowing what I was agreeing to was turning me on more than I thought. What made it even better, was no matter what I knew I'd have fun, because Kenny would never do anything that I wouldn't want to happen.

With a small nod to Claudio, the tall Swiss picked me up effortlessly, manhandling and pushing me onto my hands and knees.

When he pressed his body behind mine, I wiggled my hips, wanting to entice him. It seemed to work when his hands smoothed over my back, pushing my chest to the bed and curving my back, before taking one hand away to tease his cock through my folds.

I wanted more, but I waited, being as patient as I could. Luckily I didn't wait long, because Claudio pushed inside of me slightly before making small thrusts to coat his dick in my slick.

The slow, but large, intrusion took my breath away. I didn't make a sound until he was nearly fully seated inside me with one last, harsh thrust. My eyes rolling back as I visibly shudder around and beneath him.

As Claudio found his own pace, slowly at first, Kenny moved in front of me. But I didn't pick my head up. Not until he caressed my cheek before Claudio's fingers found my hair, stroking my scalp before he pulled my head up until My back rested against his chest.

Claudio's voice sounding in my ear as I watched Kenny stroke himself, having gotten rid of his own clothing.

"Regarde-le. Il a laissé cela vous arriver. Tu vas être ruiné, petit agneau. Soyez une bonne salope et rendez-la heureuse." Before I could even try to think of what he said, I was pushed back down, only being caught in Kenny's arms, who pulled me into a deep kiss.

He swallowed my moans, biting my lip before pulling away and nodding, looking at me with a hunger I was so used to seeing.

Slowly, I kissed down his neck, nipping his collarbones lightly before kissing his chest and abs, all while Claudio continued to thrust into me. Although now he slowed to watch the way I worked down my boyfriend's body.

When I reached his cock, I sloppily kissed and licked my way up and down the shaft, silently thankful Claudio wasn't pushing me forward right now.

Kenny moaned, grabbing my hair in one hand gently to use as a handle to keep me there.

When I finally took the tip between my lips, he took over, slowly working his way further into my mouth, as far as I could take him before gagging.

I wasn't sure how it happened, but Claudio picked up his pace, rough and fast behind me, while Kenny let my momentum from his friend's thrusts to push my mouth further onto his cock.

Despite gagging occasionally, I let myself relax and be used by the two men. Sadly, right as I was getting into it, building my own pleasure, Kenny pulled me off of himself.

Instead, he looked to Claudio, sharing some more words in French. It was beginning to frustrate me that I couldn't understand.

"Why can't you guys talk to me? Please, I want to hear what you're saying?" I whined, tears of sexual frustration beginning to surface.

Without warning, one of Kenny's hands flew to my throat, choking me enough to make me let out a choked whimper.

"Nous parlons de vous. En parlant de ta stupidité, petit agneau. Regardez-moi." He pulled me closer to make me open my eyes before continuing. "Vous vous débrouillez si bien. Maintenant tais-toi et prends le reste." With his last words, Claudio's body left mine, and I nearly cried at the loss of being filled.

Claudio laid down, resting against the pillows and pulling me over to him. Kenny letting me go as Claudio whispered what I can only imagine being sweet-nothings to me.

I wasted no more time putting him back inside of me, eyes rolling back once more as I sank down onto his cock, slowly feeling full again.

Before I could move, Kenny's warm hands were pushing me forward, gently this time, until I rested against Claudio's chest. He took the opportunity to thrust up into me quickly a few times, just to make me squeak. I could feel his laugh rumbling in his chest.

That's also when I fell my boyfriends fingers prodding my entrance that was already full. What caught me off guard was when he pushed his fingers inside along with Claudio's length, working me open even further.

He went slowly, and Claudio held still for now, enjoying being inside of my warm pussy and seeing my faces as I lay atop him.

Everything he did led to his head prodding at my folds as well, slowly pushing past and working his way inside of me.

Never before had I felt so full. Each moan and whine that fell from my lips made him stop, and he only continued when I whimpered for more.

When he was fully inside of me, both men were groaning, cock's pulsing from the pleasurable pressure inside of my, now, extra snug pussy.

Once again slowly, Kenny moved, pulling back and pushing in, my juices being the only things making this possible.

The drag of his cock, along with still being full from the man beneath me, nearly sent me over the edge.

"Kenny, Claudio, please. I need to cum. It's so much, please." I cried out, clawing at Claudio's chest.

My boyfriend bent down behind me, lips to my ear once more as his hand snaked between us.

"Vous avez si bien réussi. Viens maintenant, ma chérie." With his words, the constant fullness and friction, and the way his fingers applied just enough pressure to my clit, I had the most earth shattering orgasm I've ever felt.

Curling into Claudio's chest almost violently as I shook around them both. Their own cum spilling into me from their own intense build ups.

Despite my clouded thoughts, I whined when they pulled away. Claudio smoothed my hair while Kenny went to grab a rag to clean me up.

The damp cloth made me jump, but I let him clean me up, despite wanting to pull away from being so sensitive.

Together, the pair of them clothed me again in one of Kenny's shirts, Claudio even leaving a chaste kiss to my forehead as I lay in bed. He said a small goodbye before being led to the door by Kenny, the two having their own small conversation, I imagine, about what just happened.

But before Claudio left, Kenny stopped the man, turning back to say one last thing to me in French.

"Maintenant dis merci." Knowing what "merci" meant, I figured what he wanted me to say.

"Thank you, Claudio." I said before I took a sip of water to wet my dry throat, not realizing how painfully dry it was.

He just smirked, nodding before he replied.

"Anytime." Hearing him speak in English almost made me angry I couldn't understand their earlier conversations, but I let it go. I'm sure Kenny would happily recount, and then relive some of his favorite phrases and moments.

Now, I rested, letting Kenny crawl into bed beside me. Without me realizing, he had grabbed two controllers, giving one to me.

When I gave him a confused look, he just laughed to himself.

"You said you were gonna kick my ass. Now prove it." All I could do was roll my eyes before he set up Smash all over again.

A Woman of Integrity

After starting the episode with what's making Lea happy (feminism and cheese powder), we launch right into the week in wrestling. The girls break down the latest installment of the Elite vs the BCC, Mox and Eddie's non-kayfabe romantic trip to Japan, and Kenny's adorable promo hinting at an Ibushi appearance at Blood and Guts. Then it was off to the Adult Lovers part of the podcast, and some frankly alarmingly thirsty things were said about Don Callis and Chris Jericho. Look--it's not our fault. When Big J looks good, we're GONNA say it. Finally, after giving TK a lot of crap about not-really-random teams in the Blind Tag Team Eliminator, we play a little game and discover how difficult it really is to have a truly random pair-up!

The Elite vs BCC feud is leaving me speechless, I don’t think we’ve had a feud like this in a while, it’s perfect, Jay White my boy you did great and you’re gonna be running the place in no time, not for nothing Jay is the best heel in wrestling, maybe when he takes over Kenny and Moxley will finally team up.

Double or Nothing preview

MJF vs. Sammy Guevara vs. Jack Perry vs. Darby Allin - MJF defends the AEW men's world title in a four-way, so the first man to score a pinfall or submission on any opponent will be the winner and champion.

On September 29, 2021, MJF characterized Guevara, Perry, Allin, and himself as "the four pillars" of AEW. (I assume it's an intentional reference to the Four Pillars of Heaven from 1990s All Japan.) The idea was that all four men were top recruits in AEW's first year, and all four were clearly being groomed for big pushes, so the company was being built on their work. Sooner or later they had to put all four into one program, which finally happened when the other three challenged Max on March 15.

My problem with this pillar bit is that all four guys are clearly still works in progress, while other homegrown talent (Britt Baker, Orange Cassidy, the Acclaimed, Wardlow, Ricky Starks) have begun to overtake them. If these guys were really carrying AEW, then any two of them would be able to headline this show on their own. Someday that will be true, I think. For now, though, the main draw of the match is that it's a four-way, simply because four is the number MJF pulled out of his ass in 2021.

This is being set up like every four-way main event you've ever seen. The heels (Sammy and Max) have teased that they'll be in cohoots, and then that they can't get along. The challengers (Sammy, Darby, and Jack) have discussed making sure one of them wins and MJF loses. The babyfaces (Darby and Jack) seemed to be on the same page, but seeds of doubt have been planted. Typically this intrigue is totally dropped once the bell rings, and they'll all brawl for 20 minutes until the heel champion steals a pin. Then the announcers will act like Max has discovered an obscure loophole in the rules, as we haven't seen this in literally every four-way ever.

Kenny Omega & Adam Page & Nick Jackson & Matt Jackson vs. Jon Moxley & Claudio Castagnoli & Bryan Danielson & Wheeler Yuta - This is billed as "anarchy in the arena," so it's basically a brawl all over the building, until someone scores a pin or submission inside the ring. Page and Moxley have been feuding since October. In March, Page brawled with Mox's entire team (the Blackpool Combat Club) all the way to the ring and ran into Omega and the Young Bucks. After that the BCC was fighting separate wars with Page and the Elite, until the babyfaces joined forces on May 17. It's the first time Page has been on good terms with the Elite since 2020.

When they did this type of match last year, Eddie Kingston poured "gasoline" all over Chris Jericho, so that's the kind of craziness this match has to live up to. I don't mean "they have to do a fire spot," more like "someone has a chainsaw, but never actually uses it." Note that last year's anarchy in the arena didn't settle a damn thing and they came back with a "blood & guts" match a month later, which also didn't end the feud. So don't count on the Elite finally getting revenge. If anything I expect the BCC to get even more heat with even more heinous brutality.

Chris Jericho vs. Adam Cole - This is billed as an unsanctioned match. Nominally that just means AEW isn't responsible for what the participants do to each other, but practically speaking it's just another street fight with no count-outs or disqualifications. There's nothing to prevent the Jericho Appreciation Society from interfering, so Cole is bringing in ECW legend Sabu for backup.

The story is that Jericho and his goons beat up Cole, then handcuffed him to the ring and forced him to watch as his girlfriend Britt Baker got beat up by Saraya. So technically Jericho didn't directly give Baker a black eye, but Jericho and Cole are both playing it as if that's what happened. That means Cole wants to super-mega-fucking-murder Jericho, and Jericho must stoop to the most despicable atrocities imaginable to avoid getting super-mega-fucking-murdered.

I'm pretty sure Cole has to win this, so that Sabu can do at least one big crazy spot that helps secure the victory. I have no idea what 58-year-old Sabu can actually do, but I'm certain he'll try to do it.

Jamie Hayter vs. Toni Storm - Hayter won the AEW women's world championship from Storm in November, and this is the rematch. Six months ago Hayter and Britt Baker were the top heels, feuding separately with Storm and Saraya. Hayter's title win triggered a double turn, with Storm and Saraya becoming sore losers and later aligning with Ruby Soho as the Outcasts. The heels need to maintain their heat on their way to some kind of multi-woman blowoff match, but I don't think any of them are going to win the title before that happens. Hayter retains.

Dax Harwood & Cash Wheeler vs. Jeff Jarrett & Jay Lethal - FTR (Harwood and Wheeler) are defending the AEW tag team title. Mark Briscoe is the special guest referee. The story is that Mark and FTR became close friends after their 2022 rivalry, but Lethal is an old friend/rival from even further back. Lethal's faction is clearly only pretending to be nice to Mark so he can give them tips on how to fight FTR. FTR don't want him to get taken in, but they can't help but be all passive-aggressive and FTR about it. So the story going into the match is that we don't know what Mark is going to do.

I am extremely bored with Lethal and Jarrett chasing every title in AEW, and this story in particular has been extra-boring. So I hope they just do the basic thing and have Mark call it down the middle so FTR can end the feud.

Wardlow vs. Christian Cage - This is a ladder match with Wardlow's TNT title on the line. The title belt will be suspended above the ring, and the first participant to pull it down wins. Ladders will be placed around the ring, although technically I suppose Christian could just stand on the shoulders of his heavy, Luchasaurus.

The gimmick here is that Christian is a veteran at winning ladder matches, but ladder matches are super-violent and Wardlow is great at violence. There's also a sense that Wardlow vs. Luchasaurus is going to happen at some point, so I'm pretty sure Wardlow will retain and that won't really settle anything.

Jade Cargill vs. Taya Valkyrie - Cargill already defeated Valkyrie last month to retain the TBS championship, but this time Taya is not prohibited from using her finishing move. The whole feud is that both women use a double chicken wing facebuster, and Jade acts like she has proprietary rights to the maneuver. Jade is 60-0 and someone has to end her win streak, but I don't think it's Taya. But it's probably about time for Jade to need more help putting opponents away, so I expect a lot of interference.

Blackjack Battle Royale - Orange Cassidy invited literally anyone to challenge him for the AEW international title, and when 20 guys stepped up he proposed a battle royale. I don't know if a blackjack battle royale is the same as a casino battle royale, or what the rules are going to be.

AEW has announced the following 21 participants: Ari Daivari, Bandido, Big Bill, Brian Cage, Chuck Taylor, Dustin Rhodes, Jay White, Juice Robinson, Keith Lee, Kip Sabian, Komander, Lee Moriarty, Orange Cassidy, Penta el Zero Miedo, Rey Fenix, Ricky Starks, Swerve Strickland, The Butcher, The Blade, Tony Nese, and Trent Beretta.

They're building up Orange for a very dramatic title loss, but that needs to be a singles match against one guy, not 20 people ganging up on him and one getting lucky. I guess you could move the belt to a cocky heel, with the idea that he couldn't beat Cassidy in a one-on-one situation. But defending the title in a battle royale was his idea! He has to retain here to not look like an idiot.

Malakai Black & Brody King & Buddy Matthews vs. TBD - Black's team, the House of Black, has issued an open challenge with their AEW trios title on the line. Under "house rules," you get a twenty-count outside the ring instead of ten, you can't escape a fall by getting to the ropes, and the challengers can name any additional stipulation except no-disqualification. It sounds like Max Caster, Anthony Bowens, and Billy Gunn intend to accept the open challenge, but I don't know why AEW wouldn't simply book that match and advertise it. So my best guess is they'll be interrupted by some heel team. Either way I think the House of Black retain.

Matt Hardy & Jeff Hardy & HOOK vs. Ethan Page & Austin Gunn & Colten Gunn - This is set for the pre-show. Matt and Private Party (Isiah Kassidy and Marq Quen, who are both sidelined right now) have been feuding with Ethan Page and the Firm since October. Of late Jeff and Hook have joined the fight, and it seems like they've successfully disbanded the Firm. Page wants payback, so he's recruited the Gunns (who were in the Firm for about two weeks but never mind that now). If Matt's team wins, he gains control of Ethan's contract, in revenge for the months when the Firm controlled Matt's contract. The stip is kind of pointless if Matt doesn't win, so I think he will.

AEW Dynamite 06/28/23 Review

Jon Moxley vs Tomhiro Ishii

2 great talent. Im interested in seeing if AEW will play ok the Chaos vs BCC storyline we saw start at New Japan Resurgence.

A solid opening to the episode. I wasnt anticipating the angle until after the end of the match, but seeing Eddie make a surprise entrance as an oppurtunity to attack Claudio. I assume in hopes Mox would be too busy with his natch to interfere.

After the commercial break it seems Eddie has calmed down only in that he's not actively approaching Claudio. Instead shoosing to stare at him fron across the ring.

Mox gets the win but its its obvios theres syill tension with him and Eddie Kingston.

Parking Lot Segment

This story between MJF and Adam Cole is going exactly where I think its gonna go.

MJF is going to try and and turn Adam Cole heel, and Cole will try the to the same to MJF conversly turning him Face.

BCC segment with Renee

This was pretty much for Eddie to explain why he went out during Mox's match. I would call it a little selfish for Eddie to expect mox to all of a sudden not want Mox to hang around Claudio.

Orange Cassidy, El Hijo del Vikingo, and Keith Lee vs Jericho Appreciation Society (Daniel Garcia, Matt Menard, and Angelo Parker)

2.Oh havent been on TV for a while I dont think, long enough for me to actually be excited to see them again.

I'm also happy to see El Hijo del Vikingo back on Dynamite, loved Forbidden Door, but I will say there was a distinct lack of Lucha.

Solid match. Tony really just says all babyfaces are friends. I think that's fine.

Hungbucks Dark Order backstage segment

Oooo drama between the Dark Order and Hangman. It makes total sense for Dark Order to be upset with Hangman, especially since the bucks always seem to disappear every time Hangman is in trouble. I'm excited to see what happens with their match.

Chris Jericho and Sammy Guevara backstage segment

I didn't have much to say about their match on Sunday. I noticed that they didn't really progress anything regarding Sammy and Jericho, and neither did this segment.

Dark Order vs The Elite

6 AEW originals so I'm very happy to see this match.

I really hope we see a healthy showing of the dark order recruitment specialist.

So I'm not expecting Dark Order to win, and neither am I expecting Hangman and The Bucks to stop tagging together anytime soon, so with that, it is possible Dark Order could be using this opportunity to return. To their roots as villains.

It feels like a possibility with how willing Uno is to attack Hangman while he's on the apron.

Hangman is finally ready to take his opposing team seriously, and he ends up being pinned for a Newark fall the fans were really into.

Just when I typed that John Silver reversed the Buckshot Lariat into his own pin attempt for the second closest near fall in the match.

Adam Page reluctantly pins for the win.

So, instead of giving us more Dark Order, the BCC decides to use this moment to attack the Elite. We do get something though as it seems Dark Order is choosing not to do anything for Hangman. Even Kongston is out here to fight off the BCC.

Looks like Forbidden Door wasn't the last we seen of Don either since him and his new son Konosuke Takeshita are out here to be apart of Jon's official challenge for BLOOD AND GUTS.

I'm excited for Blood and Guts forsure. I'm not sure if it's just going to be Eddie instead of Kenny on the side of the Elite, but if so there's definitely room to add another player for each team. Especially since it seems Don's whole character is to be an Antagonist for Kenny's story.

There's a lot of ways this story could go, and I'm glad there are a lot of different threads that connect to the drama each character has had so far in AEW.

Another parking lot segment with MJF and Adam Cole.

I like MJF's generic white boy line referring to Roderick Strong.

Also confirmed MJF doesn't watch Dynamite

Jungle Boy Jack Perry Promo

Now that he's a Heel Jack Perry wears sunglasses. I guess now that we have MJF to do the Tag Team storyline, and Christian is on Collision, we need someone to just go out there and talk shit for a whole segment.

Never mind, we're getting a youpeople promo.

After talking about Hook for a minute, Hook makes his entrance, and Perry hightales it out of the ring.

We cut to back stage where Jack Perry barely escapes in his get awar car

Sammy Guevara Sign Promo

He's cutting a promo on sting. I like how they are able to use this as a way to both; let Sammy cut a promo and get the Advertisements out the way.

Ruby Soho vs Alexia Nicole (Who didn't get a lower third)

This was supposed to be a match against Britt Baker, so I'm not expecting this to be a very competitive match. We'll probably see Ruby use this as more of an angle to call out Britt.

Ruby ends this match with Britts finisher, the Lockjaw. Pretty regular stuff. All capped off with the post match Spray paint.

Oh cool post match promo too.

Johnny TV Backstage Promo

I like John Hennigan and all his silly names. He fits more with the whole QTV gimmick more than Hobbs did. Rampage is also getting its own identity now, but it's felt like it's getting one for the past few months now, and I'm not sure if it is ever going to reach that point.

Main Event: Tornado Tag Team Match: Sting and Darby Allin vs Chris Jericho and Sammy Guevara

I really hate that shitty flash movie that plays in the background of Sammy's entrance.

If i remember correctly, this is the 3rd time we saw the Painmaker character on Dynamite.

I like the tornado tag rules as a tv stipulation. Makes the match feel faster paced and chaotic.

Oh, geez. Sting jumped off the ladder onto Sammy, who was on 2 tables. I dont know if that was a great landing. It looks like sting may have landed his pelvis on the edge of one table and bumped his face on the second.

Sting somehow gets up and ends up in the walls of Jericho. Luckily, he was able to use the Painmakers own bat against him.

There's a lot of interesting depth to this story between Sting and Jericho, as we see Ating using all the moves he used back in the 90s and Jericho using the collection of moves he has gained in the years since. I feel there's a lot of possibility with this fued.

Sting wins with the Scorpion Death Lock

Closing thoughts

It feels like not much was developed in this episode aside from the MJF and Adam Cole story as well as Hangman and The Dark Order.

I'm excited to see Rampage and to see if they build anything else towards blood and guts this week.

Once again thanks for reading my review. Let me know your thoughts on this episode, are you expecting to be in Blood and Guts?

[melissahausen]

Aew double or nothing predictions

As always this is who I think will win not necessarily who I want to win.

1:Ethan Page and The Gunns Austin Gunn and Colten Gunn vs. The Hardys Jeff Hardy and Matt Hardy and Hook

If the Hardys and Hook win, Matt Hardy will own Ethan Page's contract:

Hardys and hook

Cause Hook hasn't lost yet really is all I'm basing this on.

2:FTR Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler vs. Jeff Jarrett and Jay Lethal with Karen Jarrett, Sonjay Dutt, and Satnam Singh

Mark Briscoe will serve as the special guest referee:

I'm so torn on this match (you'll hear that a lot in this lol) , I want FTR to win obvz but I've a feeling JJJ gonna do it cause its been going on so long if they don't win what's the point? , I also have this horrible feeling Mark gonna get involved in the worst way, but aye I think it's gonna be JJJ

3: Wardlow with Arn Anderson vs. Christian Cage with Luchasaurus, Ladder match for the AEW TNT Championship:

Once again I'm so torn Wardlow has just won the bloody thing back but its a ladder match its basically Christian's wheelhouse ahhh I dunno, I think it's gonna be an amazing match and I'm going wardlow but it could go either way.

4: Jamie Hayter vs. Toni Storm, Singles match for the AEW Women's World Championship:

There's a rumour this match isn't happening as Jamie is injured so this is just a potential prediction lol but I think Jamie is on the best run so gotta be her.

5: Blackjack Battle Royal: 21-man Battle Royal for the AEW International Championship

I'm not writing down all the participants cause this post gonna be long enough lmfao but I think OC gonna retain , man's on his best run in his career.

6: Jade Cargill vs. Taya Valkyrie: Singles match for the AEW TBS Championship

Honestly I don't know and I don't think I care either , I love Jade but I'm so over this run, either elevate her to the woman's Championship division or make her lose , but I think she's gonna get to 100 before they do that so jade.

7: Adam Cole vs. Chris Jericho Unsanctioned match

Sabu will serve as the special guest enforcer:

I think they're gonna put Cole in the main event picture eventually so this might be the match to start it off going against a legend like Christopher. So I'm going adam Cole.

8: The House of Black (Malakai Black, Brody King, and Buddy Matthews) (c) (with Julia Hart) vs. TBA Open House six-man tag team match for the AEW World Trios Championship:

HOB obviously lmfao

9:MJF vs. Sammy Guevara vs. Darby Allin vs. "Jungle Boy" Jack Perry Four-way match for the AEW World Championship:

We all know Max gonna retain but I see some shenanigans happening, we're all expecting Sammy to side with max right? But will Jack actually turn heel tonight? , will sting get involved? Will Phil come back 🤢? There's so much potential for shenanigans to happen. But ultimately I think max gonna win.

10: Blackpool Combat Club Bryan Danielson, Jon Moxley, Claudio Castagnoli, and Wheeler Yuta vs. The Elite Kenny Omega, Matt Jackson, Nick Jackson, and "Hangman" Adam Page, Anarchy in the Arena match:

Okay so this match my god this match , last years was amazing and I think this year's gonna top it.

Who I think gonna win I'm not sure BCC can afford to lose a match and the elite are back whole for the first time in almost 3 years so do they need it? Yes , yes they do.

Another match that can lead to shenanigans, another one that might include Phil 🤢🤢

Also one that can lead to the wembley matches being planted

I'm so excited for this match incase that wasn't obvious 😂😂

Also the elite winning yep
