Does TJPW have wrestlers working a lot of other promotions or is it pretty limited?

They are extremely isolationist as far as working with other feds in Japan goes, even more so than Stardom. They've brought in a few big names like Aja Kong and Meiko Satomura but they never send their wrestlers to other Japanese companies. Outside Japan they've worked with Chikara, EVOLVE, Frontline (Ospreay's company) and obviously AEW.

I think Colt had a point; that's a super dated reference for those of us in their mid 30s plus, let alone some 22 year old. Does MJF just watch TV Land as much as he can?

Stevie's been in the news recently due to him going under kidney replacement surgery next month. So yes, Colt is the one who is out of touch.

Id always heard the rumour & innuendo that the year off was because he was going through a divorce for reasons and that he decided to shut down Chikara so his ex wouldnt go after it in divorce proceedings :shrug:

fat wrestlers who still move as though they aren't fat own. Jericho still doing lionsaults like it's no big deal is great. If guys like KO and Jericho have good cardio then let them be as fat as they want. I hope Hangman gets even bigger so we can truly have a hoss-off, no pun intended

why give the dark order a third member when you could cut evil uno in half

I looked him up to see who he was because I figure a big fatso in pro wrestling is probably somebody who used to be famous but apparently the guy is in his early 30s and is a computer programmer for a living so please be nice because he is definitely reading this post

hey if the guy gets to trade in his computer job for one that places him in the godlike tag teams of AEW more power to him

Chikara for the last few years has been this thing where they would have decent storylines, but with a cap of maybe three being allowed at any given time. Meanwhile the rest of the roster just sits there doing nothing.

So what I'm saying is have AEW sign Lucas Calhoun and Blank.

Which has been quite surprising to me since yeah OK the first appearance was out of nowhere and didn't explain poo poo, but the second time around I thought Uno's promo was great (maybe the weird minion segment loving up afterward killed it idk?) and they def. seemed like the most competent tag team out of the threeway, in terms of all sorts of little explicitly tag team poo poo they were doing all match long (Stu pulling off Evangelico when Jungle Boy got really desperate for a tag, for example).

But I have confidence that they're gonna build up momentum when they get through a few 2vs2's plus putting Uno on the mic some more. It's not been the immediate explosion I honestly expected but from the way they are booked it at least seems like AEW is in with them for the long haul and I am confident they will find the bigger audience soon.

you have to remember that a large portion of aew live fans seem to be fans of the young bucks and thus aren't aware of how good tag teams look and are mostly frightened and afraid the entire time they're watching the dark order
