Better watch out if you’ll find an NDA sent to your house
It would've made sense if Vince was still there, or if any of the allegations against Vince from his former personal sex worker were found to be true. A couple years ago it would've been a nice burn but the fact is he lifted that from people on Twitter and thought he was slick. They immediately were like whoa hold up kid faking a neck injury while athletes are legit paralyzed from the neck down we don't need this Weinstein bullshit.
Tribalism is another one of those cornball words the AEW cult manifested when the going got tough. Look at Morrison, The guy is practically begging Tony to Weinstein him.
being concerned about maximizing every minute of the program from a booking standpoint, as a fan sitting at home, is just wild shit to me at this stage of life. especially when it's something like this that honestly would have little real knock on effect for swerve or the program in general.
Maybe they'll do something big with Swerve next week, setting up his next feud, as I'm sure people will tune in to see the fallout from Khan/Elite.
Remember the last time they used the nba for a lead-in and it led to black twitter calling Chris Jericho fat?
Reports that former NWA women's champion Kamille has signed with AEW.
I'll admit that I have not seen more than maybe 5 matches of hers and she was ok but her look....She's beautiful, incredible body. I remember she used to be with Nick Aldis kind of like his "Chyna" so to speak. AEW could use her for sure. She's someone who they can build as a top contender immediately with the core fanbase due to her reign as women's champion. I wouldn't be shocked if she has a title of some kind within a year.
Between Kamile and Megan Bayne, AEW is finally entering their Muscle Mommy era
I gave her my DVD copy of the 1999 David cronenberg movie
She's the Bayne of my Existenz
What's up with Hayter? Any reports on when she's coming back?
Been wondering that myself. Can't wait for her to get back and into the title mix.
The women's division is starting to really come along.
They've got potential to make some progress.
If you go back a little bit, seems weird to think that Britt and Hayter are pretty much absent.
Has Britt been on TV since Wembley? I am a in and out viewer of the weekly shows, And I don't remember seeing her .
AEW has never had an issue with bodies it's how they use these people.
Ricky Starks and Powerhouse Hobbs being the most egregious examples. How those two aren’t top guys blows my fucking mind.
Tony is bringing in people so those people get pushed down. And to be fair Ricky's had a few injuries I think Hobbs is also hurt right now too but Ricky had the neck injury that kind of took him out. Maybe Tony is trying to squeeze whatever juice he can from these top guys he's bringing in like Edge, Ospreay, Okada, and then he can get back to plugging in the lesser known guys.
Tony Khan surely is like an AI creation. Is he real?
Thing is, there's always going to be another one of those guys. He actually would have to have the discipline to say no.
The problem with being in his position, raised in the world he was raised in, he doesn't have that discipline. That's not even me knocking the guy it's just the reality of having nobody but yourself to answer to. He has the money to sign anyone for any amount. The problem is, if you're a fan of the people who have been there from the start that weren't already big names like Jericho, Mox, or the Elite crew, you are going to take a backseat more and more. Like I'm worried where MJF fits in when he comes back. He's not just someone who is going to love being booked in a trios feud with The Acclaimed because 7 figures hit the bank account. But this is also why you have guys like Edge in the midcard after being in the main event of the top company of all time for 90% of your career. It's like when Ric Flair was the IC champion after Evolution like what? lol.
Yeah, I'm worried when MJF comes back he's only going to appear on Rampages or something. Wait, what?
AEW is going to rebound, watch. Will be the best wrestling product by the summer.
Big L.O.L. at Jericho and Shibata.
that match ruled. one of my favorites of the year
I was thinking MOTYC until the ending; now I'm just bitter and sad.
I'm fine with it cause jericho didn't win clean. if anything, it made me want a rematch, which is not something I'd thought I'd be saying about a match involving present day jericho.
Dynamite was such a weird energy last night because I liked most of the storylines going on, but the crowd was pretty weak for a lot of it, other than surprisingly Jericho/Shibata lol. Shibata is still the fucking man.
Christian is the perfect first opponent for Swerve. Feels big, has history, and Christian will get a lot of heat outside of Winnipeg to help cement Swerve as a Babyface.
Cope/Matthews was weird and had its pace killed by whatever happened with that crossbody, but I'm into the program with HoB otherwise.
Willow is delightful and her match with Skye Blue was wild. Think there's gonna be a lot of meat to her stuff with Mercedes.
Deonna's turn will be a nice switch-ups since she wasn't getting momentum, and I like that it's spilled out of the feud with Toni organically, giving her and Thunder Rosa something to do instead of just fading after their title shots.
The ending angle was awesome. Kenny cutting one of his best live promos, the faceoff with Okada, and then the Elite beat down that hit harder and felt more visceral than the TK attack.
I actually enjoyed the FTW match. Shitbata is so awesome and Jericho was entertaining as well. My family constantly makes fun of all the stuff under the ring and so when my son walks in and see hockey pucks he was like what the fuck. lol
I like Christian as the first person for Swerve.
I do like that they are turning Deonna. She works better as the heel.
I am happy to see Serena get a title shot even if she doesn't win. I wish she would get one of the women's titles at some point though. She is so good.
I did like the stuff with Omega and the Elite and looking forward to seeing how all of this plays out.
Omega's bump when he got dumped in the gurney was tremendous. He flew like a foot away from it and landed hard on his side. I want to say he bounced but I can't remember that clearly, only that he got my sympathy when that happened.
That was a tremendous show, although I did miss some of it.
Omega cut a nice promo last night and I think what helped is he was being about as real as possible. I've given him a helping of shit about his character/mic work in AEW but he's slowly winning me over with these clips I see of him playing video games calling out nerds trying to talk shit about Roman for example.
Christian v. Swerve....It wasn't my first choice but there's a little history from 8-9 months ago. I'm just a super fan of Christian so while I don't really understand how Christian is the #1 contender to the World title, the match will be good.
I heard Tony lost the latest rankings sheet at the NFL draft so it was just whoever came out first.
Seriously though, storyline wise it makes no sense but business wise Christian is a great 1st choice to work with swerve. Christian will keep that heat on him and keep the babyface love on swerve. Work rate, mic and segments will all be on point.
Looks like Ethan Page has left. I really like him but that were not doing a lot with him and he was pretty much just working ROH. He has started his wrestling company back up and what not so probably wanted to do other things.
Another body that Tony needed but he never really knew what to do with him. Tony is good at keeping the same thing going for people who come from other places. There's no real original ideas in AEW everything is a continuation of something people were already doing. What was Ethan Page prior? TNA tag champ? Not really a top guy and look at his run in AEW. He has a good look, very good in the ring, awesome on the mic. But they have playing 2nd fiddle to Scorpio Sky. Sky is a good wrestler but he's boring as fuck and has never felt natural whether that was teaming with Daniels and Kazarian or being a multi time TBS champ.
Page in WWE wouldn't be a shocker. If he returned to TNA and rejoined Josh Alexander or maybe even feuded with him that wouldn't shock me either. But if he's going to go to WWE they would probably snatch him up now he's mid 30's probably has a good 10 years left in the tank barring any injuries.
