Here we are, nearly three years later. One night away from Hangman being anointed the AEW World Champion. And I'm realizing that Hangman being the one to officially reveal the formation of AEW was no coincidence. From second ONE, it's been Hangman's destiny to win the title and become the face of AEW. Can't wait for tomorrow night.
Here we are, 9 months after that, and CM Punk has already tried to wrestle control of the company and has buried Hangman on live TV in a shoot promo about a promo hangman did very subtly before their match at DON '22.
I have just started watching all of BTE recently. This was the episode I'd read about the most and was the one I was looking forward to the most ... Page's line gave me chills, even after a year of watching AEW already. Wow. Thank you for all your amazing work.
Almost 2 year since the birth of AEW. There's been ups, there's been downs But no one thought AEW would survive year one. No one thought big names would sign with the promotion. No one thought they would consistently beat wwe/nxt in ratings. No one thought they would be seen as legitimate. Now, we're in year 2, and I fully intend to be a part of this ride with AEW!
11 months later and oh boy the things that have happened. AEW survived the pandemic, so many young guys and girls were enstablished as big time players and new ones were signed, the war with NXT was won, Dynamite broke through a million viewers consistently, the forbidden door with Impact! and NJPW was opened and oh my god the amount of stars that came in...Sting, Miro, Christian Cage, Andrade, Ruby Soho, Malakai Black, Adam Cole and of course Bryan Danielson and CM Punk...and one of the best long term storylines was told, with a an amazing conclusion. "Hangman" Adam Page is the fourth AEW World Champion. It has been a thrilling ride and AEW is going towards year 3 with so much momentum and as an enstablished reality, now more than ever. These guys started here saying they wanted to change the world. Well they for sure changed the pro-wrestling world. And they're still doing it. Here's to year 3 of being All Elite.
It’s officially been 5 years since you guys have Changed the Professional Wrestling World and still going strong. Thank You Tony Khan, AEW and last but certainly not least THE ELITE ❤️
AEW is gonna raid all of WWF's underutilized talents and put Vince McMahon outta business!!! A E DUB A E DUB A E DUB!!! 1 Sweet 2 Sweet, ALL THE DAMN SWEETS!!! Already better than 5 hours of RAW!!!!!!
Had to watch this episode again. A week away from AEW on TNT and this episode still gives me goosebumps. Super gracious and proud of everyone involved. You all deserve it!

When hangman said “mines says something different” I thought he was going to reveal the nxt logo and it turned out to be AEW Nd it was the best thing ever !!!
Damn, this is how to start off the year with some good news. It was expected, but to see it becoming a reality, makes me insanely happy. This is the best I have felt since the days before WCW and ECW closed their doors. It feels like the wrestling industry is finally making a comeback to what it was in the 80's and 90's, with a love of the old school and a new school attitude and way of doing business.
The scenes leading up to the reveal with Cody, Hangman, and The Bucks walking with the audio clips from All In playing got me so pumped up and emotional. Thank you for telling great captivating stories that run through all of emotions. Keep betting on yourselves and we will be here to bet on you.
Back after reading the book! Amazing video announcement. AEW is now currently working with Impact and maybe even more organizations. They continue to change the wrestling world for the better!
"Mine says something different" gives me chills even 5 years later. Wrestling is best when The Elite are the Main Characters, and now they are the Main Characters across multiple companies. #ChangeTheWorld Indeed.
This episode was epic!!! The music, the looks on everyone's faces. The way you can hear the past stuff everyone said in the background. The production had me replay this episode 5x in a row. When matt was walking through the hallway and Cody was coming down the elevator I got goosebumps! I felt it. This made me feel like I can do anything. Such an awesome inspiring story. I'm so happy for you guys. When Masa heard the voice in his head hahah lmao! Cant wait to see what happens next. Happy New Year!
WCW. AWA, ECW, TNA USWA, Smokey Mountain, Global Force Wrestling. What do they all have in common? They all went out of business. Why? Because they couldn't hang with WWE. This AEW will not last. The promotion is likely a tax write off for a guy who owns an NFL Team. Vince will do all he can to take them down. In 5 years AEW will be a trivia question
I'm here to witness the history I came back to pro wrestling in 2020 and thanks to RU-vid I got to know about AEW and ever since I saw episode for first time in 2020 I couldn't stop watching. I haven't felt so connected and invested to any wrestling company after WWE years ago. Thanks AEW for bringing that spark back.
3 years later they got Jericho Mox Sting FTR Christian CM Punk Arn Anderson Bryan Danielson Resurrected Adam Cole And so much more that we couldn't imagine 3 years ago
Holy Shit! You guys are changing the game in such an incredible way. I'm a lifer of a fan, but I said goodbye to mainstream wrestling back in'03. It became so stale cause of the monopolizing of the industry. I'd hit up my Indies and (being the slow birth pains of the internet) getting to see a spot, let alone an entire match, was as difficult as trying to watch an adult film, when you weren't an adult and your parents were do any minute. Thanks to guys like you and, because i came across his channel 1st, Kevin Steen I was essentially granted the ability to bare witness to wrestlers and personalities that I fell in love with. The Elite, the former Mount Rushmore, et al gave the best in ring content you can find and by just being yourselves in front of the cameras you gave more compelling storylines than anything "Creative" has ever put out. When I first discovered all of y'all it was like I was transported back to 1995 eating pretzels with my dad when he accidentally sat on the remote switching stations to the local Spanish channel. It was 3 AM, but I wasn't seeing a telenovela, no I was witnessing Raven beat the ever loving fuck outta this chunky kid I'd never seen named Tommy Dreamer. But the kid wouldn't stay down. I was "All In". It changed my whole paradigm of what wrestling was. Your world wide connections and relationships give you access to actual talent. You've almost broken through the conditioning of the majority. There IS a crack in the damb, and in 2019 I hope you guys help Mother Nature finish what she started. Seriously, thank you for cheering me up about what was once my passion, Pro Wrestling. Y'all are saving an industry that doesn't even know it's sick.
I didn't watch BTE before DoN so I get back to this episode only through the Young Bucks book. Watching it now for the first time give me goosebumps. It's not just that AEW gave pro wrestling back to the people, but Dynamite has been such a firm point during this shitty pandemic that watching how it has been revealed to the world still has a lot of meaning. This has been an horrible year but Dynamite's 2 weekly hours of relief are something that gave me joy no matter what.
I've never clicked on something so quick.. Happy New Year's Elite! Looking forward to whatever it is you're going to do in 2019. Now I must bid you adieu so good bye and good night.. BANG! 👉💥
I will never forget waking up and immediately watching this video. I was so unbelievably happy the first time i saw that AEW logo. I immediatwly bought an AEW hoodie that I still wear almost everyday.
I know you really didn't watch this comment, but my dad was passed away few hours after this announcement, and I hope you guys have an awesome endeavor in AEW cause my Dad and I are big fans of BTE,keep on fighting and dreaming
I’m excited for this because for years we been waiting for a new revolution in pro wrestling with new japan pro wrestling growing and the rise of AEW the future is bright keep killing it guys
Finished watching Tony Kahn's interview on AEW unrestricted and this popped into my mind. This STILL gives me chills. AEW will surpass that other company.
People can complain about AEW signing WWE wrestlers but they are finally letting talent wwe couldn't see shine Mox Pac Spears Hager Brodie Lee Matt Hardy Revival
I haven’t put any money into professional wrestling apparel until the Elite was formed. I truly believe in your plans for this industry and you have my full support! ALL ELITE!!! ALL ALL ELITE!!!
