Say what you want about Moxley, that return promo kicked ass.

Jon moxley's return from rehabilitation unleashed a new beast in him. He has been operating on a different level. Of course the Blackpool combat club formation brought a fighting spirit and legitimacy to AEW. Danielson, Moxley, Regal, Claudio and Wheeler Yuta have been the premier part of aew television. I hope to see Jamie Hayter join them and the Dream feud between Blackpool combat club and bullet club(both japan and aew version) kickstart.🔥🔥🔥

The reaction from both guys to being slapped by Regal was damn near perfect. “Yes Sensei, I understand.”

as every year of aew passes moxley proves himself to still be their smartest signing to date

I've watched wrestling for 30 years but I've never seen anything quite like that Moxley promo when he returned from rehab. AEW generally has loud and invested audiences in buildings and especially for the return of a main event, world champion level talent like Mox. And yet, when he started to speak the place was deathly silent. It almost sounded like something was off, like an empty arena pandemic show. The silence was such an incredible sign of respect to Moxley and well deserved. The promo was incredible too. Moxley has delivered time and again since joining AEW.

Eddie Kingston being the biggest hater was such a highlight. He was so angry that they won, only because he didn't make Jericho tap. 🤣 Throughout the BCC story, my favorite part has always been Wheeler Yuta transitioning from the comedy club (Best Friends), to this sheer, bloody, violent group of the BCC. His story was perfectly done, didn't drag out too long, and was accepted by everyone in the group.

I love these documentaries keep it up

I wanted a Jon moxley documentary so bad. This will do it for now but i still want you to make a documentary out of jon moxley's run since leaving wwe from becoming aew champ to going into rehab to coming back being champion when half of active roster was injured& again being champion when key main eventers acted like children, his program against darby, mjf that made those two even bigger deal. I don't have resources and time to carve out a documentary of him, so i wish to see his run documented. Btw a really great work, enjoyed every sec of it

Wheeler Yuta has always been one of the better AEW wrestlers, but his matches with Danielson and Moxley really showed his potential and his heart. Especially the match at the 56:00 mark or so. Wheeler Yuta, bloodied like Carrie from that classic 70's movie. Yet he kept fighting and fighting! He was a perfect addition to the Blackpool Combat Club. We got rid of Cable-TV so I missed a lot of the AEW Dynamite shows. So getting a chance to see these snippets is awesome! There are so many amazing moments that occurred during this time-frame. So again THANK YOU for sharing these with us!

God Yuta joining the BCC was the best story at the time. His fights against Danielson and Mox were on par with Dreamer tanking Sandmans kendo hits or Austin passing out from The Hitman's Sharpshooter. Star making, certifying badass moments

Moxley VS Yuta is an AEW all timer.

One of the best wrestling documentaries I’ve EVER seen

I think it's long overdue that Danny Garcia joins them, maybe make a little angle where The Blackpool combat club obviously toughens Danny up, but also Danny gets them to have a little fun and gets Moxley & Danielson to do his dance ,tell me if done right the crows wouldn't eat that up

I forgot how awesome it was when Regal said blood and guts

Man, the BPCC has become my favorite stable since the Moxley-Danielson interactions. I really aprecciate this documentary. Thank you!

God that regal promo at 1:13:25 is so fire

Lovin the work you’ve been puttin out! Top notch wrestling docs like yours are great!

Man these docs are another level man! Great work :)

Outstanding as always dude.

These documentary are just beautifully made. Everytime I hear a narrator speak in wrestling documentaries I always click away, but here you don't hear anyone. Just the wrestlers speaking. The edit is already amazing, but the way you showed us clips of their past makes this look even better

Man i really love your work, i would love to see a documentary about the Cena vs CM Punk rivarly man... in my opinion best feud of 2010s

Mox’s demons promo is one of my favourites all time

At the 38:59 mark the architect, William Regal entered the mix. William Regal was always been a great wrestler, and he has ALWAYS BEEN A GREAT *SS KICKER! Having Regal be the one to get this team going was a brilliantly written storyline by AEW and their team. Regal deserves every accolade and ounce of respect he gets! He's one of the toughest, roughest, and hardest working wrestlers ever seen. Whether he was in WCW or the wwf/wwe he never needed to change. He was just William Regal brutal *ss kicker! One of the biggest or worst moments was when William Regal left AEW and went back to a company that NEVER gave him the respect and honor he deserved!

you should do a documentary of The Elite vs Inner Circle/Jericho vs Cody or The Elite reuniting

BCC VS ELITE NEXT PLEASE

The best faction of all time

Let’s go been waiting for this one!

ty so much !! love what you’re doing to highlight long-term storytelling & character arcs

Yoo 1:07:00 Eddie Kingston is really trying to murder Chris Jericho! Hands down the most legit looking move I’ve ever seen! Lmaoooo

Wonderful documentary, man I miss JR on commentary. Keep making incredible documentaries about incredible wrestling stories

That moment when Moxley came back from his "sabbatical" and he got into that ring and spoke from his heart, and he was allowed to be himself and not some gimmicky goof that was created by someone else, I gained a HUGE amount of respect and admiration for AEW and Tony Khan, but especially for Jon Moxley. Admissions of a dependence of anything is not easy, and for years there's been a stigma placed on you if you were an alcoholic, an addict, or another issue. One of the toughest and most difficult things you'll ever do and experience will come from that addiction and even the Admission of the addiction. What follows if your an Opiate addict is minutes, hours, days, months, and a year of HELL! Alcoholic as well. Your body will have convulsions, vomiting, your body will sweat, then freeze, then your skin will crawl. As you dream of stopping it, in any way possible. Those are the worst case scenarios. But it isn't an easy road. Many people or bosses will fire you for any small issue just because they don't "trust" you anymore. Nobody should ever have to experience that. What Jon Moxley said was such a great and true statement. None of us are perfect, no matter how many believe they are, they're NOT! ALL OF US HAVE ISSUES! Not addictions, but everyone has quirks and oddities. Nobody should ever be put down for stepping forward and trying to help themselves! We should be willing to help them as well. Not put then down, ridicule them, or belittle them. I saw someone like that. He was "perfect", or so he thought. Then he had a nasty car accident. He needed surgery after surgery after surgery. He was in rehabilitation for over 18 months and during those 18 months and prior during the surgeries he was given morphine and other potent pain medications. After the surgeries he was on Oxycotin and other pills. He became addicted, not because he was a homeless addict, but because he had gotten so injured and in so much pain he literally couldn't function or even move at times. The irony was that he belittled pill addicts, or "junkies" as he called them. "THEY DID IT TO THEMSELVES! LET THEM ROT.", he said. And yes some people do just that, but they are all human beings! Now that he was an addict, hooked on the same thing those "junkies" were hooked on, I in a not too nice way said so did you do this to yourself too? Now that you're a junkie like the rest, how does it feel to become the person you despised? It opened his eyes. Especially when he quit taking those 💊💊pain💊pills💊💊 and he began to feel the effects of the withdrawal symptoms. During his rehabilitation he had thought that when he felt sick, (the withdrawal symptoms), it was the flu. He never dreamed it was his body's way of showing the addiction effects. He told me that he never ever felt the misery that he felt when he stopped those pills, and he understood now why it was so difficult and so hard to stop. He now tries to help people in recovery. I liked AEW from day one. They were a breath of fresh air! While the wwe is a sickening and stagnant pile of 💩💩💩💩💩!! I have seen so many people who left that stagnant pile of 💩💩 and come to AEW, their careers have been so much more enjoyable and the workplace is fun, not a dictatorship run by one head 🤡clown🤡 and his family of 🤡🤡🤡🤡clowns🤡🤡🤡🤡!!

You are awesome! Thanks for the content

This is great, man. Fantastic work.

great video I really like the BCC group but I never knew how the group started

The Best faction in professional wrestling 👊🏻🩸

AEW's roster has so many incredibly talented and iconic wrestlers. The Blackpool Combat Club is a perfect example of just how amazing of a roster they have, and if you add RoH, and the occasional combination of NJPW and AEW you literally have in my opinion one of the BEST and MOST INNOVATIVE Wrestling companies and shows ever produced. There must be some truth to what's been said. That working for AEW and wrestling for their company is fun, and so much more creative then what they had at the "other" big company. It really shows, with how much happier "most" of the wrestlers are. Apparently some people are never happy. CM Punk being that person. Now whether or not this newest backstage drama was real or a work? WTF? If it's NOT a work and he had another altercation with someone backstage? 🙄 something needs to be done, like maybe get him a muzzle? Aside from his childish antics I've been extremely impressed with AEW's PPV's and television shows.🚪🚪FORBIDDEN🚪DOOR🚪🚪 was a incredible PPV with two of the best franchises combining to create one amazing PPV! Seeing how the Blackpool Combat Club was formed is one hell of a documentary!

Love Those Videos

Another amazing one...keep going bro ur fantastic!!!

"Nobody is perfect alright, if everybody was perfect the world would be very boring place" "I dont stand side by side with nobody untill i bleed with them first"

Amazing work as always. Thank you!

Dude, these docs are great. Let the matches tell the story, not the narrator. Keep it up, King.

Absolutely great creation You know how to make video. Genies

i cant live my life without this type of documentary rn, i love it.

This is a very good documentary, a complete and deep one. Great work, man!

can we take part 2? with njpw run?

You are supremely talented dawg keep it up!

Already a classic. I think we could include Moxley becoming more open to teaming up with others. As he joined AEW as a loner, didn't trust anyone. Until his long time friend who he left behind came to AEW. Eddie Kingston feuded with Mox, showing more emotional side of Moxley. And later on Eddie tried to save Mox from what he thought was going to be a lethal explosion. Eddie tried to save Mox by sacrificing himself. After that, Mox and Eddie started teaming up and almost won tag team championships. It just so happens, when BCC was formed, members of BCC slowly pushed Eddie away. While Mox wanted to reach his potential and take out his own weakness (lack of defense). Now Moxley choose success over staying true to his own word. He did told Eddie Kingston mother that he will protect Eddie.

Phenomenal editing. Honestly, im hoping enough eyes are on your videos to get you a job with a major promotion full time. You deserve it

Thank you sharing this with us all. I've been a fan of professional wrestling since I was 5 years old. Back then we watched AWA's All-Star Wrestling on WVTV Channel-18 in Milwaukee during the 70's. Guys like Nick Bockwinkle the champion for so long, with his manager Bobby "the 🧠Brain🧠" Heenan, Da Crusher, Baron Von Rachtke, Mad Dog Vachon, and so many other greats. I first saw Andre the Giant there as well. Since then I've seen so many legendary wrestlers, so many icons, and so many heels. Incredible feuds and matches like The Nature Boy Ric Flair versus Ricky🐉the🐲🐲Dragon🐉Steamboat. Sting versus Flair, and Tag-Teams like the Legion of Doom, the Rock N` Roll Express, the Midnight Express, the Hart Foundation, the 🇬🇧British🇬🇧🇬🇧Bulldogs🇬🇧, the Hardy Boyz, Edge and Christian, the Dudley Boyz, and other amazing wrestlers like The Macho Man Randy Savage, Bret "the Hitman" Hart, Brian Pillmam, the Von Erich family, Steve Austin, and as I already mentioned Sting, Ricky The🐉Dragon🐉Steamboat🐉, and Ric Flair. The Four 🐎🐴Horsemen🐴🐎 was one of the most iconic and lethal teams to even join forces. The members may have changed over the years, but they were always extremely lethal and very difficult to stop. The Blackpool Combat Club is similar in the fact that they are potent, strong, hard to beat, and can come at you in so many different ways. Having a chance to see a documentary about how it was formed? Pure 100% EPIC Entertainment! Thank you again for this! I also love the fact it wasn't a 10 or 20 minute synopsis, but over 90 minutes of kick *ss information and match highlights! Awesome video and definitely earned some subscribers!

I love this faction Danielson Mox and regal omg!!! and this was a great documentary🔥🔥🔥

Thank you so much for the compilation. These videos has been son useful .

keep up these documnty

Thks for the work, keep going

This is such a great story. So many good layers and twists and turns

It must take ages stitching these together, you are a legend!

I hope one day Daniel Garcia ends up in the BCC. He’s someone they could 110% build up.

I would like to see the House of Black documentary

48:30 can we just take a moment to appreciate how William Regal does subtle tiny things to help emphasise the point for BCC

Go straight and talk with Tony Khan and use your documentaries like your Resume and they will hire you immediately. Keep up your amazing work.

Nah the BCC really starting to become my favorite faction fr man heel or baby faces you just love the style of wrestling they bring to the ring every night top tier

Thank you for making these. Watched the Punk one and it was amazing. Nice way to catch up with what’s happening in Pro Wrestling.

I love this.. Thank you for this documentary ❤

Make one with the journey of cody

new Dropmick lets gooooo!!! 🙏

ELITE

Bro, it's good to see your channel growing!!! Swear I watched the CM Punk video when you had under 100 subscribers (could be mistaken though, lol) but well done bro, keep up the good work 😄

Wow so cool great content!

1:07:35 Eddie and Mox are so funny like Kingston on his phone: Look at this Moxley: 👀

Great freaking videos keep it up, i know is from wwe but do one about the festival of friendship the best angle up to this day

Another banger 🔥

Please do Suzuki Gun, Bullet Club, and LIJ, as well as the faction that spawned LIJ,

Tony Schiavone and Jim Ross at the same announcers table is legendary iykyk

I still wish that Garcia joined BCC.

arguably bcc are in the top 3 of factions in aew history so far along with elite and inner circle

This is amazing for us that love this craft but don’t get to follow it week by week

These things are great.

Bryan really was about to cry during Mox's promo
