4 Ups & 5 Downs From AEW Rampage (May 20)
Ups...
4. The Tombstone Gimmick
Right, positives are needed after all that rubbish.
Death Triangle emerged to present a specially-engraved tombstone for House Of Black following the opening six-man tag. It had the faction's name on it, and also featured a special plaque for the upcoming Double Or Nothing pay-per-view too.
This is why Malakai's group should've squashed Dark Order and Fuego, but at least AEW rescued the segment with this tombstone reveal. It was a lovely moment that fed the macabre of both stables, and Penta looked awesome as he pulled the hood off then posed.
Double Or Nothing's six-man will be awesome when it comes around. The build has been spotty, and they arguably needed to do more easy angles like this, but better late than never right? All Elite's simple booking was this reveal's strength.
