Surprised to see them having another PPV so soon... they'd have had more PPVs than TV shows after this.

This isn't a PPV like Double or Nothing. It won't be held on PPV channels, just on the Bleacher Report streaming thing. It's kinda like an iPPV, I guess. But the point is, it's a smaller show, as is the one in July, and All Out on 31st August is the next "proper" PPV.

Not watched this yet, but I've seen that it's been gaining a lot of criticism because Cody took an unprotected chair shot to the head. Come on guys, everyone loves a good chair shot to the head, but at least try and protect yourself for the good of your health. No one would complain if you get your hand up and so that that takes the brunt of it, and you still sell it as solidly to the head.
The chair shot was bad. Shouldn't have happened.
The show was pretty good. Not as good as Double or Nothing, obviously. But it had a few good to great matches. And a few average matches.

Apparently, according to the Young Bucks, it was all Codys idea and the chair was gimmicked to crumple. Except that the wrong part of the chair connected with Cody's head. Just wasn't needed anyway. A standard turn around into a chair shot with his hand up would have been more than enough.
I've watched it all but the main event now. Going to finish that tonight. Enjoyable event so far.
I have seen a crazy uproar about the chair shot online.... while i don't think its a good idea to take anykind of blow unprotected to the head... i'm pretty sure he isn't going to text people saying his dogs are in the enclosed pool area.
I saw Cody just today posting online about snagging an N64 last night. I'm pretty sure hes ok.
The next AEW event is Fyter Dest, and putting 2019 at the end of this suggests that it might be a yearly thing.
One match has already been announced, and last night they announced two more, with one match being slightly changed - PAC has been removed from previous advertising text, since PAC reportedly has AEW issues. He's now just a blank slate on the promo picture.
This was the original text yesterday after announcing Moxley's match, before the images were added to Twitter with PAC missing.
Some are reporting the advertising text as a technicality since he would have been on the card originally. But the updated card with him gone is further proof that he really is done with AEW until he drops that non-AEW title.
So the line-up at the moment is:
Jon Moxley vs. Joey Janela
Cody vs. Darby Allin
Kenny Omega & The Young Bucks (Nick & Matt Jackson) vs. The Lucha Bros (Pentagon Jr. & Rey Fenix) & ???
Oddly, their Twitter account hasn't included what many are assuming to be the main event in Jebailey vs. Michael Nakazawa in a hardcore match, given that it was on the poster for the event. If that's still happening, then there's that to look forward to as well.
