      @@BJORNArtist "some dudes talked a billionaire into starting a company" is the winner here. Tony is nothing more than an enabler. The Punk fiasco proved that the in mates are running the asylum and Tony is just the financer. He doesn't have control of his company. He doesn't have respect from the boys. They run the show while he just pays the bills.

      Not really. Since the beginning wwe stans have been trying to convince others and themselves that aew was tna 2.0 or wcw 2.0
      They wanted to see it so badly so that can feel validated for either being loyal to wwe or feel validated for being "smart" fans all because they listen and get their knowledge from Jim.
      I love Corny because he's funny but he really is out of touch with today's wrestling. He truly is the personification of a Boomer except it's in pro wrestling. 😂

      How are bad promos, workarounds for people who are bad on the mike, and crippling stage fright in pro wrestling a "millennial" thing?

    *On the topic of everyone getting their momentum nerfed* ...
    My running theory is that Tony, being a numbers guy, has access to a line chart that demonstrates the average points at which some wrestlers have historically gotten over and then started demanding bigger paychecks, being a problem for the booker or going into business for themselves; Then he started working his show to counter those graphs and percentages.
    The Elite, Jericho, Mox, and Punk himself were the incidental exceptions to this rule and Cassidy is a floating asterisk; Everyone else has to bend the knee to the chart percentage and nobody gets to be bigger than the company or approach super-stardom on their own.
    The consistency is a pattern and I'm fairly confident it's by design, not simply random ignorance or madness driven insanity at play.

    The Keith Lee powerbomb is the least of their issues,but still an issue, since wardlow has been so successful making that thing so important and exciting for the fans, kinda like Sid back in the day, I would ban that move from everyone else, no one does any version of it.

    I had so much hope for AEW. Here we had an unknown guy. Tony Kahn. A supposed sports guy, guy with stats and numbers. We were told we were going to get a sports based product. Stats and Memphis style Pro Wrestling. What we have doesn't even fit into the category of a big top circus show. It's too unbelievable and booked like trash to even be put on under a big top tent for a circus. Hell, a circus manager could do better than Tony. Stromboli could book AEW better. Maybe, in the future something will happen to finally make AEW worth it but for now, this is not the place and definitely not where the big boys play.

    Not sure how safe this technique is, but maybe the women should adopt Rey Mysterio's style of hitting the ropes, sometimes he'll dip and hit off the middle rope instead of the top rope. Unfortunately a lot of the women we see wrestling are a little clumsy, so there may be some danger with learning that.

    I think it's clear at this point that AEW has been promoting this ROH stuff so much to show to Warner to try and get it its own show. Maybe a week like this is a test by Warner to see what an ROH show could do in ratings, and get an idea of who is involved.
    Some of the things AEW needs to do are so obvious.
    - Give Yuta/Garcia/Moriarty the trios titles as babyfaces
    - Save Wardlow for your big angles/matches and give him memorable spots/moments in them
    - Give FTR an in ring promo and match every single week
    - Re-evaluate the JAS. I get it, they get the rub from him, but it just is not working. Tay Conti should be nowhere near this group, or even Sami. She should be in singles competition as a babyface. 2.0 should be managed by Anna Jay. Hager should be jobbing to big guys and Sami should be off TV for a few months to cool off. Jericho can be the newest member of House of Black.

    That Billy Gunn kidnapping angle just sounds like garbage and cringe. Billy Gunn is taller and probably bigger than Swerve and we are supposed to believe that he can just kidnap Billy Gunn without any difficulty whatsoever. 🙄 I grew up and remember The Undertaker kidnapping Stephanie McMahon in an angle but even that had some slight believability. Undertaker was a big scary guy that was stalking Vince Mcmahon's family and threatening her and I think they even teased footage to gradually set it up over a few shows I think. I remember someone brought up one of Stephanie's teddy bears to Mcmahon in person. Realistically, I think if a big 6ft 10 guy was coming after a younger, shorter, unarmed and untrained in self defense person, that would be pretty horrifying. When Stephanie got in the limo and Undertaker was the driver and was like "where to Stephanie?! (besides it being hilarious if you look past it lol, it's somewhat believable she'd get kidnapped) . But this just sounds dumb as hell. I can see why this show gets low ratings. Apparently Billy Gunn being over at 59 and The Acclaimed getting over is too much of a bad thing
