Quick All Out 2024 Preview
It’s been a bit of a hectic week so unfortunately I’m going to have to do a short form preview.
Zero Hour
I’ll go with Top Flight/Action Andretti to win the three way and the Bang Bang Gang to beat Cage Of Agony, the latter being on the grounds of it’s the Bang Bang Gang vs. Cage If Agony.
All Out
I’m going to go with all of the champions retaining. Mercedes Mone is still way too early, the Young Bucks aren’t about to lose, Kazuchika Okada is going to lose in a big showdown rather than a four way, Ospreay has lost enough recently and even AEW isn’t nutty enough to make Jack Perry a World Champion.
I’ll take Kris Statlander winning the street fight with Willow Nightingale. It doesn’t feel like this story is done yet and that means the villain needs to win.
MJF beats Daniel Garcia. As much as AEW wants Garcia to be a thing, they would be nuts to have him beat MJF.
Finally, Hangman Page has to beat Swerve Strickland. Yes it would be two losses in a row for Strickland, but at some point Page has to actually beat him. Even after burning down Swerve’s house.
Overall, the show has hooked me in a lot more in the last week. It feels more like a pay per view than last year’s lame edition and I’ll certainly take that. On a sidenote: there are five title matches and four of them involve people with a chance to become double champions. That’s as much of an AEW problem as I can imagine and is so ridiculous that it’s almost funny.
