Hobbs is next level. Lee has been great for ages. Same for Starks and Swerve. But Hobbs has basically elevated his game so much in a short time that he's the most impressive one to watch. Love all these guys.
That slow standup and back body drop by Hobbs out of Lee's hold (2:13) was freaking amazing. Done perfectly. These two looked so even during the match, it was very well done by all the wrestlers.
That rare moment where once every 2-3 months AEW actually book Team Taz like badasses and they get to stand tall. Always great to see, should happen more often rather than constantly jobbing these guys out.
That’s really all they can do with all the talent they have without making them look bad. Look how long they spent with Hangman’s story before he got the strap.
Is that bad though, it leaves you wanting more. Getting satisfaction like this makes people get bored faster. AEW imo is good at making you tune in cause you never know whats gonna happen.
This is why AEW having a generally smaller roster is a good thing sometimes. When the big boys come out to play, it just makes it that much more of a spectacle and attraction.
Haahahahaha I am just throwing up and or laughing at these senseless moronic kiss ass comments. You guys really know VERY LITTLE about good wrestlers or good wrestling...>
Huge props for Hobbs in this match, they’ve really built him as a valid match for Keith Lee, and it looks like we’ll get a Street Fight tag match down the line which is gonna be great
I'd say I'm very impressed with Will Hobbs but,I've been watching him since he signed so I'll say he definitely met expectations I've learned to have of him. What a match! Great work all around
@@sheposkybryan4808 that's what a commentator should do, no making excuses and gushing over to their favorite superstars and especially not talking trash to their favorite superstars when they become face for the very first time. jericho is killing it on commentary and i love it, and king too i love him as a heel and face
@@josgor9061 And you love spending your time watching AEW clips to talk random shit.... It's WrestleMania weekend, dude, find something to do with yourself.
One of the best big men matches ever, brilliant story telling, crazy athleticism and both come out of it looking insane. People roast Hobbs for his spine Buster finisher but he makes it look cool, and Keith Lee is just on another level
This match was crazy. Quintessential "Big Meaty Men Bumpin Meat" scenario They did a good job making both of them look like total beasts, especially Hobbs, while keeping both of them protected. Keith looked like he was just barely able to beat Hobbs, and Hobbs had the visual win over Keith, so this could definitely be revisited in the future.
@@zippy8888uk Who doesn't love Big E period? He's the man. Really a shame what happened to him, for all the good he has put in the world, he deserves so much better.
I LOVE how much Powerhouse Hobbs has grown on AEW. My man Hobbs shinning like a BEAST! WooooooohWEEEE!! What an impressive match, bro! That spear onto the table was just...WOW!!!
For anyone who didn’t know, when Keith Lee put his hands up, that’s the sign for the Spirit Bomb as that’s what the anime does he got it from. What makes this cool is that in the anime, to do a Spirit Bomb, the user must gather the energy of those around them by everyone raising their hands and offering their energy. Would be super cool if this fact played into the move. Like extremely few in the crowd did it, make it a sluggish 1 count. The whole stadium puts their hands up? Should put down anyone.
@@mam31492 A 2 month old comment is not the same as something like a 10 year old comment idiot. There's people replying to comments that were 5 years ago, etc. When you post a dumb idea on a comment, except for responses no matter how old it is
This squabble between these four need to be saved for a pay-per-view!!!!… the energy from this was crazy! We finally get to see the durability and power of Lee. And I don’t think anyone has ever powerslamed Lee! He has truly lived up to the name powerhouse !
Exactly. Comparing his body transformation since his debut is very impressive. While him being world champion would be cool, there are so many in front of that line.
They taped Dark and aired Dynamite before taping this on Wednesday. We were spent after 4+ hours of wrestling, but the crowd was still into this. Especially seeing Hobbs spinebuster, powerslam, and backdrop Lee was incredible.
Dynamite might be the A show but if these four men (I like to call them the new 4 horsemen/pillars of AEW Rampage) spearhead Rampage, it won't be long before I am more invested in the "B" show than the "A" show. These four can turn Rampage into a 2-hour show.
Hobbs deserved to win that match... this man is seriously stronger than i thought he is impressive! Hes def way stronger than wardlow and i know hes stronger than lee.... i though hobbs muscles were all shows but hes seriously strong he picks up lee like nothing!!!
This is the match of the century Keith Lee vs will power house Hobbs is a top ten in 2022 for me and that double chop to Hobbs is vicious and heard around the world.
All this was very well done. This really had that championship 🏆 feel to it. All guys did there thing. Baby face won, Heel did their heelish stuff...And I always prefer promos before a match to hype up the fight, and continue getting to get a feel for the Wrestlers in action. I really don't like some matches that are not advertised to a certain capacity.🙂
man Powerhouse Hobbs have elevated his game so much in such a short amount of time, this kid have a future, I can see why CM Punk pick him as one of his first matches back, this match was amazing. And to the surprise of no one, Keith Lee is just goddamn AWESOME, he and Hobbs turn the house down, always fun to see matches between 2 BIG guys who can Move like panthers in the ring, really loving this feud between Team Taz and Swerve and Keith Lee.
This tag team match is going to be EPIC. Save it for the PPV!!! Hobbs is a great rival for Lee and I'd love to see Swerve vs. Starks. When this culminates to a PPV match it will be awesome. I'm glad AEW does PPV every 2 months or so as it gives time for these rivalries to develop. In a bit of fantasy booking if ROH does a PPV on the opposite month of AEW PPV that would be PERFECT
Fue una lucha brutal Y creó que para dar un final feliz Sería ellos dos En una jaula infernal 🔥 En su máximo nivel Sin que nadie se meta Para que se vea un final excelente 👌 Y para mí ellos están En un nivel de título superior Porque lo han demostrado
To all those who was complaining about Tony Kahn being racist… Every single wrestler, manager, and ref that appeared in this main event was a POC. TAZ, Lee, Hobbs, Swerve, Starks, and even the damn Ref. And what a main event it was
That was a good execution of a classic villiany costing the villain the match. Which I like to call a "hubris spot". Better for the home audience since where the camera is keeps you from seeing the ref isn't in the ring. So home crowd sees the move, expects to see a count, but the ref isn't there. So you get a "oh no it cost Keith the match." into a "Oh saved by the resulting chaos!" "Ha! It cost the bad guys the match!" flow. Good spot for TV crowd. Match itself made both guys look great because both look completely superhuman powerful and Hobbs lost in part do to hijinks. So he's protected. Keith Lee takes a post match beatdown but it involved getting snuck up on with a weapon and he still fought a bit during it so he looks strong still. Excellently done.
Powerhouse Hobbs showed out this match, his future is bright. Let Ricky Starks and Hobbs run wild this year pleaseeee. Keith Lee is also an insane beast of a man of course, let the big meaty men slap meat!
if there was ever a six man tag team match between Team Taz(Ricky Starks,Powerhouse Hobbs,and Hook) and Keith Lee,Swerve Strickland,and a partner of there choosing, Keith and Swerve's mystery partner should be none other than Brian Cage
Hobbs is next level. Lee has been great for ages. Same for Starks and Swerve. But Hobbs has basically elevated his game so much in a short time that he's the most impressive one to watch. Love all these guys.
Please sharks is nothing special
I agree; forget face or heel; these four are all incredibly talented!!
Tony racist so no pushes for them
Yes, this guy literally destroyed KFC Champion Keith Lee 🍔🍔🍔
This is what good wrestling is, pushing sharing the love to keep fans interested storyline and all. Heel or face, respect to AEW!

These 4 guys are putting up a good show each time. Hobbs vs Lee alone was awesome.

Hobbs is a legitimate threat. This match really showcases that.

Hobbs is insane athletically. The powerslam and spinebuster are out of a video game.
J mm
That Spinebuster was a thing of beauty.
They both garbage
Now this is Power
Hobbs kind of reminds me a heel version of ice train from wcw
It's rare to see 2 big heavyweights in AEW wrestle like that. Great match up!
Most of their roster is welterweights and middleweights.
That slow standup and back body drop by Hobbs out of Lee's hold (2:13) was freaking amazing. Done perfectly. These two looked so even during the match, it was very well done by all the wrestlers.
Insane core strength

Hobbs has come a long way in a short time. From Dark to the main event. Love to see it.
This War between Keith Lee and Powerhouse Hobbs will continue.
