  • AEW have signed many wrestlers in its 5 year history. Some of them do very well and are assets to the company, others maybe dont meet expectations but a select few, were seemingly signed for no purpose whatsoever and AEW had no reason to sign. Today we’re gonna discuss AEW signings who truly added nothing to AEW and I just don’t get for what reason they were signed.

      Soooo what was WWE doing then hiring Jon Moxley, Seth Rollins, Kevin Owens, Sami Zayn and all these popular guys that made their name elsewhere? And it's not new at all. Jericho, Benoit, Eddie, even OLDER then that there's Hulk Hogan for christ sakes. The original face of the WWF was poached from another company originally because he became popular and McMahon saw him as a draw... God damn I refuse to believe you are actually THAT dumb.

      Disagree here.
      Swole was a standout indie talent. Thing is, most indie wrestlers don't wrestle in front of a live camera. She has the talent and physical toughness but a disease that makes it tough to even walk on a good day completely hurts your chances. Also, there was an unnecessary dog pile after she called out TK for things that were valid. Representation in AEW was limited in the main title scene. Jade only won the secondary women's title b.c no one cares about the TBs title still

      Tony desperately needs "legends" and since the company exists for, like, 6 years, they don't really have any that spent the bigger part of their career there. No history, no footage, no surprise appearences. He knows that nostalgia is a huge factor for older wrestling fans when they decide which product they want to watch, no matter how much he believes that there are definitely millions of fans of "the sport of professhonal rasslin' " that just haven't heard of these two random Mexican guys who did 50 flips in one match and got rewarded 5 stars from sweaty Dave who appeared on Collision or Rampage. He wants to HAVE stars, not to build them with good booking.
      It's also funny that Sting aside, their only "legends" are Brodie Lee, who was there only for a cup of coffee before his death and got a god-like tribute show despite winning only a secondary belt once and dropping it after a single defence and Owen Hart, whose only connection to the company was that his wife agreed on a deal with Tony so he can use his likeness.

      I was saying that back in the Dark/Elevation days.
      I think Dark can be closer but have it set up like a tournament where like once a month the "champ" or top ranked guy earns a Dynamite match. The announcers would make a big deal about how many opponents this person defeated to earn their shot on Dynamite. Show clips of them smashing people on Dark. Then you're actually promoting Dark on Dynamite and giving it a reason to exist besides "well there's some other matches I guess"
      Then they never did that of course but started Elevation which had no purpose at all either...
      Like seriously just organize this shit a little bit...
      I'm no wrestling booker but I feel like I could improve the whole company massively just by giving each show a reason to exist and having someone make sure everyone had SOME kind of angle going on, even if it was just "hey I'm here to smash people and I'm gunning for the TNT title man!"

    The fact that Boudreaux's physique looks noticably different in every picture here, would make me extremely hesitant to consider hiring him for a job that requires reliable physical performances. That's never a good sign for a professional athlete. It's not like the pics were taken over a twenty-year period and he's in his forties.
    Genius idea to hire a failed football player who had to give up his sport because of concussion issues - and can't wrestle for sh!t - to attempt to make him a Lesnar-style pro wrestler... What could _possibly_ go wrong, right? I swear, the wrestling business is run by the absolute dumbest people on Earth.
    Also, when has Heyman ever had any idea how to scout new undeveloped talent? He has always just latched on to people who were already pretty good at what they were doing, to further his own interests. The "Heyman guys" thing is one of the biggest fake myths in pro wrestling.

    1: Honestly thought Trench was going to be the guy being slagged here and not Boudreaux. I rather enjoyed the Trustbusters on Dark and didn't see why AEW couldn't get more out of them. But Trench? Never understood that signing or what value he was meant to add at all. Boudreaux looked to have potential. But even Trench's name sounded random and nonsensical.
    2: That whole aftermath of the Nightmare Collective irritated the heck out of me. Brandi's therapy story could have been a really good catalyst for the national conversation we need to have as a whole when it comes to mental health in this country. Instead the segments felt kind of haphazard and then that angle gets dropped out of the blue as well. Just so Brandi can suddenly be the dutiful wifey in the Cody ten lashes bit. I get that Mel and the Collective needed to go but they surely could have come up with something better that wasn't so hair-brained and seemingly panicky as what they did.
    3: Flair may not have been my favorite legend signing but I don't see any reason he couldn't add value in the way former Horsemen mates Tully Blanchard and Arn Anderson did if both sides so choose. I would have thought it better to pick on somebody more like say Jimmy Havoc who got Me Tooed and looked more that part than he ever had a professional wrestler.
