Puppy Doll posted:Oh, absolutely. It's really awesome to see a company so willingly and openly have LGBT talent. Even if they're not main eventing, at least they're getting paid and, in the case of Nyla and Sonny, gaining more recognition. Yeah this is honestly one of the biggest, if the biggest, reasons I'm following AEW.

Sonny Kiss is loving awesome and I've been waiting for him to get his big breakout moment, which will hopefully happen here. I'll cop to not knowing anything about Nyla Rose before, but from what I saw at the rally she has a good look and and carries herself like an intimidating badass, which is a good start. I'm trying not to have too high expectations for a largely unknown wrestler just because she's trans, but if her ceiling is "Nia Jax but actually good" then I'll be cool with that. And I hope she ends up being even better than we thought! Basically these are cool and good signings that show AEW is looking more outside the box than we expected, and has their finger on the pulse of current trends. Open LGBTQ acceptance is a massive step forward in this business, which we all know has, uh ... historical issues with that.

One time I bought a ticket to FCW and they had a pre-show autograph line with the women talent' which included Naomi, AJ Lee, Summer Rae, etc. And Sheamus as a special guest. I didn't have anything for them to sign accept for these pictures I had taken that day at work of me standing in famous horror movie posters.

I actually had no idea she was trans until she showed up in AEW though.

Selling out your second show in a few minutes with no TV is impressive but people gotta dunk on it cause it's not WWE or something. And on WOR Dave has been open on saying this doesn't mean long term success, this is just impressive.

Nothing specific, people are just extremely negative about AEW over there and I cannot imagine being a wrestling fan and not being excited for either AEW itself or what AEW will do for WWE. Unless I broke my brain from watching WWE for the past 20 years.

I can absolutely understand people being pissed at the end result of all that "build" being Undertaker just showing up and casually kicking Cena's rear end, but I thought it was fantastic. SatoshiMiwa posted:And on WOR Dave has been open on saying this doesn't mean long term success, this is just impressive. Yep, I also like how he notes that based on what he knows about wrestling, fans, tickets etc, he never saw this instant sellout coming and it doesn't make any sense based on prior experience, but obviously SOMETHING is being done right and just because he doesn't understand it doesn't mean it isn't so.

I really wanted Undertaker to just never show up, and that was the payoff to Cena/Undertaker. It would have been the perfect ending to the Undertaker at WrestleMania story.

I feel like the MJF push is something I will not get on board with, it's like trying too hard to hit all the cliches and I get that's the point but it aint my jazz, especially when someone who naturally generates heat by being deeply offensive in a way you can't describe exists on the roster in Sammy Guevara
