One time a guy stole some downhill skis out of my jeep and I was so mad I punched a mailbox. I'm against crime, and I'm not ashamed to admit it.
I’d keep Kenny face for now but turn Cody. Cody can lead a stable with Spears and FTR and they can take on the Elite in a blood and guts match at All Out. You could then maybe have Kenny turn on the elite at that show.

Page staying Face and Kenny turning heel is the arc I want. I don't care about the bucks, but having Kenny and Page in an arms race for the title or Kenny taking it off Mox to set up Hangman's run is the story I want.

that honestly would end the year perfectly for me, especially if they can somehow have a crowd for Kenny vs Page, it'd be incredible

My dream booking right now is MJF taking the title off Mox, then Hangman taking it off MJF, and heel Omega coming after Hangman

Don't turn Page heel.

Don't.

Not now.

Don't.

My entire section was all "nononononononono" on the tease at Revolution, and while it was great at the time I'm glad that he and Kenny have made up (for now) and he shouldn't be the heel at this time.

I've been good for four months, Big Biceps Tony, give me this.

STAC Goat posted:

Yeah, Tully's been teased so much with this that if he forms a "Horsemen" and Spears isn't part of it you either need to turn him face and have him seriously combat them or just kill him dead as a joke. Meanwhile you could just include him in the group as the guy who takes pinfalls. That was working out great for Sammy before he derailed himself.

I think, if you go the route of not including Cody in the Horsemen and you also don't include Spears you could run it with whoever is in the group beats the poo poo out of Spears and it pushes Cody and Spears to form an uneasy alliance to fight against them. Might even get me to care about Spears again.

I agree with all of the "don't turn Hangman heel" posts but also, some of the lines are very murky in AEW. Are FTR heels or faces? Is Kenny a heel or face? They both do decidedly face and heel stuff. I think you could ride that line with Hangman where you don't really change any aspect of his character even if he's in a group who is slightly more heelish than The Bucks and Kenny.

Edit: at the end of the day, it's really just nice to care about so many characters that there are multiple ways everything could turn out and still be good, make sense, and be entertaining.

There's zero chance they're going to turn Hangman heel. From day 1 the intention has been for him to be the ace of the company and before we lost crowds he was already pretty much there. They're not going to ruin all their hard work getting him into this position now.

Spears/Cody could work if they went that way, yeah. Spears being abandoned/turned on and Cody extending an arm back into the Nightmare Family makes sense. But that also kind of feels like QT's spot right now.

I don't think Page can turn on the Elite and be in a heel faction feuding with them and not be a heel. That just feels unreasonable.

I think Kenny is in that same state of transition Page was in months ago. He could be turning heel but we don't know. His character is going through something and it took his friends calming him down and we'll have to see where he goes from here. I think people are oddly not connecting the FTR story with the Jurassic Express one. Omega dumped the FTR beer last week, Page gave him poo poo about it, he tried to extend an olive branch to FTR for his partner, FTR spit in his face and embarrassed him, and Page was nowhere to be found. So Kenny snapping on Jurassic Express feels like an obvious extension of that as Kenny just took out his anger and frustrations on who was convenient. Where it goes from here, we'll have to wait and see.

I think FTR are heel. Like they're just natural heels. If this whole story plays out with them not being the heels it will be weird. They ripped a dude's mask off to get a win this week. Every action they make is heel one EXCEPT that they're nice to the Bucks. The only "face" thing they do is being nice to the Bucks. So like... it would be really weird if that didn't turn out to be a ploy to trick the Bucks but them being actual faces. It actually feels a lot like that bad Alexa Bliss/Nikki story if they ended up as the faces.

yeah, I think the math breaks down with Spears, because he's clearly a heel, and a stable with something like tweener-face Hangman, tweener-heel FTR and heel Spears seems schizo

but a nu-horsemen with a Rhodes seems wrong but also maybe interesting? hmm.

i want Hangman to have a crew though, that he can trust to have his back as he goes for the title and I don't know where that will materialize

Always remember that the former President was dumber than the dumbest person you've ever met by a wide margin

I think (at least as it stands now) FTR are tweeners that lean more towards being heels, especially with the mask removal and the beer drench last night. That doesn't mean Kenny can't turn heel because of the, though.

I'd also love for Page to still be drinking buddies with FTR, even if they go full heel and he stays a face.

Yeah, I'm not against Page having some buddies. Like as much as I'm not into Page I think there's a compelling story there to Page accepting he's just moved away from his old friends and making new ones who he's more comfortable with. Its natural and feels a lot like what's happened with Cody and his Family or even the Bucks palling around with FTR.

Its just weird if Page's new friends are the heels who are loving with his old friends (and tag partner). I mean that's an interesting story if you explore the nuances of it, but if he's just "gently caress my old friends" that's kind of a heel.
