Psycho Mantits: Oct 6, 2009

1. Late 2018, in those initial Meltzer reports.

2. When the Elite got swept at Wrestle Kingdom is when I started to believe there was more to the rumors than just talk.

3. I was hyped but not totally onboard. Cautiously optimistic considering I was a TNA fan for so long and had gotten burned time and again.

4. I figured the promotion wouldn't be launching without some sort of TV deal, though I was expecting something more like ROH rather than a major cable network. TNT seemed like a huge, huge get.

5. Was expecting a lot of comedy and inside jokes - think Being the Elite with matches in-between the skits. AEW thus far has embraced comedy but hasn't been dominated by it; it strikes a really good balance.

6. Much, much better than I could've ever hoped for.

7. WrestleMania 34 killed my interest in North American professional wrestling. All In rekindled it. AEW turned me back into a superfan.
