Before he got probod rovert was making noises that Balor was definitely going to re-sign with WWE so expect him to run in on the main event at All Out

he also said Orange Cassidy was possibly being signed by AEW so gently caress him for getting my hopes up lol.

Prince Devitt showing up at All Out would probably be the only thing right now comparable to Mox coming in.

So I see all this Marty talk but didn’t Dave mention recently that Marty is more likely to end up on NXT?

I may be hearing that wrong but he said that’s where he is leaning or something.

Dave was guessing based on what I am not sure other than his girlfriend barely being in NXT. I can’t possibly think why he would choose WWE over AEW but British wrestlers are dumb.

Aren't him and Deonna Purrazzo (who is signed to NXT) dating? That could definitely be a factor.

Deonna Purrazzo's been really unhappy since joining NXT as well so I'm not sure that would really do much entice him there.

people have said he was like a wwe fan or something who wanted to be there, and yeah they would probably pay him a jillion dollars to keep him away from aew, but he will also be a total nobody there within months and there's a decent chances he would see his girlfriend more on an aew schedule compared to having both of them on wwe ones

One option is the entirety of his friends, the other is money and his girlfriend he’d still be able to visit on the frequent days off the first option would provide

Considering it’s wrestling, I don’t blame Dave if he thinks the dumbest option is the likeliest option. Historically, it’s the safest bet

Same. I feel like that is the closest to the real Okada we will ever see. By all accounts he is a weird, goofy guy in real life.

I miss the balloons and yelling “Scooby Doobie Doo” while jumping off the top rope.

Santana & Ortiz, they've been tearing it up in Impact and elsewhere the last couple of years.

And to be clear they're not the OG LAX (Homicide & Hernandez) from TNA, they're a younger team that took up the mantle with Konnan managing them and feuded with "OGz".

Although I guess technically the true OG LAX would include Apolo.

Marty can go to to AEW, then he and Britt Baker can travel together to Orlando to meet up with Adam Cole and Deonna Purrazzo, and they can double date. :allears:

I mean there are actually a bunch of people in TNA who actively chose to be there over other places so it's not always "wow aew failed to sign this person." when Jordynne Grace found out her contract was void I think multiple places scrambled to sign her but she insisted on staying due to a strong women's division opportunity and the chance to still do the indies+travel.

It's insane to say but in 2019 I feel like Deonna Purrazzo would have been infinitely better off on Impact, where she'd actually get utilized and have good matches. TNA is doing more with 10 women than WWE does with 40.

tenille is quite a bit like "Leva Bates" the librarian. Trained to be better than the bottom rung, but then the bottom rung unexpectedly disappeared. Wow!

Right now Impact has the best woman’s division in wrestling, non-Joshi.

I think Tennille is looking to prove to people that not only can she work but she is not injury prone. She has missed most of the last two years due to various injuries. I can see why AEW passed at this time. A year or so in Impact can change things.

I was surprised that Courtney Rush/Rosemary stayed in Impact. Both Allie and her had outgrown the promotion. Again I could see the injuries being the reason why AEW passed.
