Quantum of Phallus posted:eddie was literally willing to DIE to save his bff jon moxley from the exploding barbed wire deathmatch ring that kenny omega trapped them in. he is the ultimate babyface, a god on the mic, great in the ring, a cool unique look. the full package Amen. Like Cameo said: the Mad King has a great talent at connecting to fans around the ring that most people would kill for; Naturally and as effortlessly as I could take down a box of Timbits. He’s also got a great mind for wrestling and will be a great backstage talent when he hangs it up for good. Tony giving King a new lease on wrestling life is yet another AEW feel good story that got my loyalty at least. To our new friend: welcome. Read about Brodie Lee if you want to experience a bittersweet symphony. Really surprisingly positive fed that somehow wants to make all wrassling fun and good. I don’t know if professional wrestling ever had a territory or fed like this before. Mox and the King as best friends from the wrong side of the tracks is always a great gimmick; especially and probably because of all the real behind it.They can be face, tweener or heel and it don’t change much: they want respect, some drinks and to gently caress poo poo up. They don’t have to have the belt but when they come for it then you know poo poo will get real. I still want Eddie to have the gold one day as he’s earned it.

I desperately want to hear Eddie Kingston do the St. Crispin's Day speech from Henry V, though I worry that if he actually performed that speech it would lead to a shoot invasion of France.

One final thing about Eddie Kingston before I shut up, last year AEW tragically lost a member of their roster in December and at the following show which was done in tribute Eddie gave an incredibly passionate speech backstage to all the rookies to encourage them to move forward. Fortunately it was caught on camera for one of AEW's backstage vlogs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6BKUOJGyTc0&t=226s This is the moment that confirmed him as the soul of AEW imo. Kenny and the Bucks and Cody may be represent the company as EVPs but Eddie represents the locker room.

Maybe the finest Eddie moment:The Mad King, after the Brodie Tribute Dynamite ended posted:“We did that tonight, we made that man proud. So this doesn’t end tonight. This does not end tonight! As long as this company’s around or if I’m around and all the rest of you will be here, we’re going to do that every time, and we’re going to make him proud, and we’re going to make proud of everyone we’ve ever loving lost, because that’s our art. That’s what we do. Don’t forget tonight, use this. Take this energy… yeah it’s negative now, but make it positive, and tell everyone you love them. Don’t be like our fathers… took my old man 55 loving years to say he loves me. I love each and everyone of you, do understand that, because you put your bodies on the line. I love all of you, stay and be with each other. God drat it, Brodie, my motherfucker got me talking to everyone… but listen, we’re going to get past this together, we’re going to be stronger than anything. Tonight showed it, how strong we are. We fought through tears, we fought through everything, we put on, probably the greatest tribute show I’ve ever seen in my life, and we’re going to carry it. Let’s carry it, and let’s do it.” This is a man with zero filter between his heart and his mouth.

One of my favorite Eddie Kingston moments was when he came out and as part of his promo mentioned being on TNT, and said "They know drama, right?" Which was a big nod and wink to an old TNT marketing slogan, "TNT: We Know Drama".

Thanks for the crash course on Eddie Kingston. From just seeing his match on All Out I didn't get a sense of what he's about, but now I know he's one to watch. What's a "Canadian Cod"?

The joke, of course, being that Eddie Kingston is a beloved promo guy which (as you noted) does not mesh with AEW's PPV formatting.

Anyone think there's a chance of AEW getting picked up by a broadcast TV channel when they get their next TV deal? I don't think it will happen but it would be good for them if it did.

I don't think it will happen but it would be good for them if it did. If I was WWE, I'd be real concerned about Fox talking to AEW once the Turner deal is up for renewal. (I think Tony's more likely to stick with Turner/Warner if they're amenable, but talking to Fox to help improve the size of the renewal is definitely something I could see.)

If they can maintain their current ratings (or even continue to grow) they'd be absolutely insane to not at least entertain offers.

This is how you get doomed to ESPN + Elephant Ambush posted:We talked about it a dozen pages back or so (not that I'd expect you to read back that far) but AEW has only had 2 or 3 total DQ finishes and that one single "Dusty finish" during the Jericho/MJF match in their entire existence. They heavily avoid the WCW run-in/DQ/shmoz garbage and it's one of the things I respect the most about their product. There was that truly awful run in finish to the Kris Stat/Shida match where the nightmare collective came out and devoured the ending which was made even worse by Kris going back to her home planet for surgery for a million years immediately after. Also for all the sconeheads out there: biscuits are soft not hard, have twice as much leavening, and lots of saturated fat. There was a good section in the eddie kingston AEW unrestricted podcast episode where he said for his own promos everything he says about himself is 100% true, everything he says about his opponent is "whatever, depends on the guy".
