Well, if you watch AEW 4 Gear 2025 yesterday and was hoping deep down in your tutsy

tires, oh my gosh, I hope I get a bunch of surprises in my face, which is the worst sentence I've said for a while. Boy, how did it AEW give it to you, which is also terrible sentence, but don't worry. My name is Simon Miller. I am the board Aho. You have tuned into AEW full gear 2025

ups and downs

where we are

going to give the

o'cup

it's an up

and the bad

bits and down

it's an up and the bad bits of doubt. It's essentially a review, and I have opinions, and they're big opinions, which is probably going to divide the audience right down the middle, but that is what the comments are for. Then you can subscribe to yell at me every single day. I appreciate you, my friends. Now, let's talk about

full gear. Now, I'm actually going to kick things off with a down, which I rarely do, but I'm always going to be true, which rhymes, so it must be true. I totally screwed that one up. But it was a Don Callis family taking on Mr. Co. Neon on a mascara and err, and this was meant to be the last show on the pre-show, but then it bled in to the main show, mostly because

a carter decided, ha ha, not going to tell me. Garada and this was meant to be the last show on the pre-show, but then it bled in to the main show,

mostly because O'Carader decided, I'm not going to turn up on time, because I don't work the pre-show. But it did mean when we got our big pyrotechnic display, we went from the pre-show into the main show, which is exactly what we did in the last pay-per-view. Now, listen, I loved it then and I did enjoy it here too, but sometimes less is more, especially in pro wrestling.

And the fact we did it the last pay-per-view. Now listen, I loved it then and I did enjoy it here too,

but sometimes less is more, especially in pro wrestling. And the fact we did it on back-to-back, big events, would it just kind of me go, well, now next time we do it, it's not going to mean as much. I would have just given it a rest for four months or so, or whatever timeframe you wanted to give it. And again, what do I know absolutely nothing? But it entered my brain and then my rest of my body sort of agreed with it. And I was like, I'm going to have to talk give it. And again, what do I know? Absolutely nothing, but it entered my brain,

and then my rest of my body sort of agreed with it. And I was like, I'm going to have to talk about it now. So I'm going to give it a doubt. However, Akhada did save the day. Because yeah, he rolled out. Only once he had been told, yeah, full gear proper is on now, Akada. He's like, all right, fine, I'll go to the ring.

And Takesha was so upset about this. These two and their facial expressions, which could be the name of a cartoon, Up. Mr. Come had been taken out before this as well, so it was actually two on two for a while, but that's just so that he could hobble back down to the ring, because he is a good baby face. And essentially, because Akada and Takesha were arguing on the outside and they kept falling out, Mystico applied

my Mystica onto Etcicero. And boy howdy did he tap out so fast. I think somebody whispered to him,

we're behind time. You have to speed up and he totally got it. But it was a super fun match. I am going to give it up as well. And we are really plotting some seats for a caro and de Kester. I thought we would do it on this show. But as it turned out, it could even tie into the continental classic. We'll talk about that later. But yeah, they're talented folk up. When we got our first shock of the evening, because I did not see this coming, but it was Pack versus Darby Allen in a normal wrestling match. I guess that was the stipulation. And I thought Darby was going to win this as he continues to make his way probably to a world title reign in 2006, because if you can beat Pack, who is one of the best wrestles of the planet, will I just show you've got Moxie, but actually went the other way, because I believe there's a different story to tell. Now there was still a couple of nuts things in this, including Pack press-slapping Darby to the floor, and you should watch that just for the noise. It's like that, you hear bones crash, and because Darby allen had been burned at blood and guts he came out

with tape all over him why wouldn't that fabric protect him so pack ripped off the bandages and started

to basically just like play with his skin this was disgusting because derby got burned for real

i kind of sat there and questioned my life choices but i was like you know what simon you're in too
