Ricky had a few botches too (like whiffing that catch on Darby into the powerbomb)

you say that like diamante hasn't been excellent in every appearance she has made

She needs a contract yesterday because she is a solid midcard killer who could jump up to main with a hot angle

If the women's division was given any time, at least

Starks looked legitimately hurt and I gasped at the stripes on his back till I figured that it was made from the blood dripping from the tacks on his back.

WARHORSE seems like a nice fella with a neat character that makes sense staying an indie darling

In the universe where he gets signed I dunno how you don't run into the same problem finding a spot for him that you did for Joey Janella

hes a few years younger and his style is much less "nutso fuckit" and more pure wrestling

plus he got 0 mic time and i think one thing that helps him is his ability to cut classic intense warrior promos without being, yknow, warrior

i liked Warhorse a lot and see him having a future in AEW even if there are younger guys in house already i want to see moving up

give it another year or two and I'm sure he'll be on the roster

I’d rather give Cameron a chance than Zack Ryder at least Cameron entertained me before also Vickie and Nyla and her all can be very funny it’ll be a fun stable for a few weeks.

Unless Ryder becomes the Toy Man from super friends I don’t care about him

I'm not making a fucking QCS thread for this but seriously can we take a harder stance on Kiwifarms freaks like this guy, Jesus Christ seriously, you used to be better at knocking these creeps down. I guess ADTRW mods aren't responsible like GBS mods are.

And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.

And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

Not really? This is the first time its been like two people no one was jumping out at. Miroslav is what people saw potential in, Brodie Lee, or FTR. This is different. These are not stars. These are Shawn Spears.

I'm excited to see what he does and I legit think it would be funny and good if he just instantly turns on Cody and joins the dark order. My real complaint is that I don't think it was very good booking, and uncool to Warhorse, to go from the whiplash of a match with unsigned indie darling right into a save from WWE's Zack Ryder.

Good for him too, I doubt AEW will ever spell his name wrong.

He’s either going to show that he’s actually good, or he’ll get shuffled off to Dark with the other friends of the stars like Luther and Spears and he’ll get himself a nice little backstage gig working their social media or being in charge of their toy division. I don’t mind either outcome.

I even was fully for Spears because he really didn’t get a chance. Cardona got a run as a character that was outdated when it debuted and wasn’t any good. His finisher is doofy and the long island bro thing hasn’t been relevant since Jersey Shore season 1

You might be right in a vacuum but i doubt that anyway, with that said taken as a whole package there is no universe where this is true. If you mean worker maybe, but as a wrestler theyre in different stratospheres.

Ryder was genuinely over when he was champ, then he got the most obvious and pathetic burial to be seen on television.....well ever. It was blatant as gently caress and completely stupid as hell.
He was also the only good thing that happened in one of the shittiest Wrestlemania's in years. Cardona may not be super good or anything but he definitely had merit.

10 man was always a meme, and he's a meme here. Cardona aint no Spears.

you are correct, cardona as a package is light years ahead of miro as an all encompassed pro wrestler.

As someone who didn’t like Ryder then or his internet champ gimmick the burial was highly enjoyable and genius.

I agree with the second part of this. There's no pop culture wave for his character to be widely relevant anymore.

this glorious monument

I think we're good on WWE signings and friends of the Young Bucks as Tag Champs. I love Kenny and Page, they're probably my two favorite workers in the company but having the best tag team division the United States, if not the world has ever seen be dominated by a storyline featuring two predominantly singles wrestlers playing out over a course of 7+ months, virus or no, is doing it a disservice.

Oh oh wait, I misspoke. Brandon Cutler can and should be tag champs. Well maybe not 'should'. But you get the idea.

yeah, as much as I love both Kenny and Hangman, I don't feel like they're going to do anything with the titles to top the Bucks match at Revolution and I'm ready for something to shake up, and really really really thought Dark Order taking some gold would have been the perfect way to do it
