Hangman has a generational connection like Austin or Naito and that's almost impossible to force onto a performer.

Spermgod posted:ive felt for a while now that TK is a little excessively hesitant to give away matches between pushed guys and it shows in that tournament bracket. the roster is so stacked right now, a Ricky Starks or an Eddie Kingston can afford to go to a tournament semifinals and lose to a Miro or a Moxley. it's fine and NJPW shows it's fine every year. But.. Eddie is in the tournament.

I think it's a tournament set up for one very strong story beat which is one way to book a tournament, though I'd prefer it to start earlier and the field to be larger maybe next year.

Spermgod posted:come to think of it so long as we get danielson/kingston i don’t care how weak the bracket is. traditional booking would dictate that archer gets his win back though. Pissed off Mox who's mad that Bryan beat the poo poo out of Eddie would be a great finals and that's what I'm betting on.

So, with Mox going heel, does he get a new theme? I like Wild Thing a lot but I think something a bit more chaotic would suit this new Mox well.

Lead Pipe Cinch posted:Either of his indie themes work for a heel, I think (Hole-Violet or L7-Shitlist). Make it happen Tony. I'd absolutely lose my poo poo if he started using Violet.

King Bahamut posted:If he’s not in a program I don’t want to see Punk on every show because it emphasizes the limited number of actual matches in his deal which is not the WCW vibe they want. I think they picked up on this after a couple too many weeks of “CM Punk SPEAKS” and “CM Punk WILL ADDRESS” segments Punk doesn't have limited matches in his deal.

quote:Fightful spoke with Deonna Purrazzo ahead of Bound For Glory, who confirmed that she has spoken to Scott D'Amore about doing crossover work with All Elite Wrestling, specifically with Dr. Britt Baker DMD. She also confirmed that Baker has done the same with Tony Khan. We haven't heard of any progress on the potential, but it has been floated.

quote:“For Eric Bischoff, of all people, the guy who got lowered down on a motorcycle from a ceiling, a guy who challenged Vince McMahon to fight him, to say that somebody should be quiet is laughable. Eric is doing an act and I respect it but let’s be serious. Eric used to be a wrestling company executive and now he is a commentator, and as a commentator, he’s trying to stir up controversy. I think it would be pretty naive of anybody to look at this and not examine that the person talking is Eric Bischoff who’s the most outspoken wrestling executive of all time and somebody who got a lot of heat. If we’re going to be honest, the things I’m trying to do in terms of balancing these great stars we have like CM Punk, Chris Jericho, Bryan Danielson, and people who have come in with years of experience and they have lots of time on television as a big TV wrestling star. Then we have the people that have emerged here and have become TV wrestling stars in AEW like Kenny Omega, Hangman Page, and The Young Bucks. You also have a whole crew of people that are the young stars. A lot of them are becoming young, established stars on TV too. Whether it’s MJF, Britt Baker, Sammy Guevara, Jungle Boy, and so many others, Darby Allin in particular, these are stars I’m committed to keeping in AEW and not losing and building around. When Eric said, ‘Focus on the wrestling’, I am focused on the wrestling, pushing these people, and not running them out of the company like Chris Jericho who couldn’t get out of WCW fast enough. Eddie Guerrero was put in his place. The wrestlers were told by their boss that there were only three guys in the company, when Eric said that only Hogan, Savage, and Piper were the only three guys who had ever drawn money, of course, a slap in the face to a few other people in the room. But also, what does that say for the morale of the young wrestlers who are busting their a**es every week? It just doesn’t make sense.” Jesus christ Tony.

Bright Future posted:Serious question, is it worth watching other companies? Which ones and how do I watch with a minimum of fuss? I suffered through WWE for years as a casual fam, swore off wrestling after cool dudes like Owens and Zayn were treated like poo poo and recently checked out AEW and got HOOKed. If you're okay with a language barrier, Japanese wrestling is probably the next best thing (when you take into account ease of access and price). Wrestle Universe is $10 a month and includes DDT, TJPW, NOAH, and Ganbare Pro, I'm not super well versed in Ganbare Pro but the other three are very solid and fun. DDT and TJPW are more comedy based (but with very good wrestling at the top of the card) and NOAH is full of old dudes beating the absolute poo poo out of each other. They've all got some free matches on youtube so I'd check out the top of the card of each of them to see if you like them.

enigmahfc posted:the Wednesday shows are going to come on at 10:00? I have Fite so it won't affect me, but that seems insanely stupid. On the west coast feed, yeah. Not sure how much of an impact there'll be since I think whenever Meltzer has broken it down by big markets, AEW already does pretty badly in the west, but number will take a hit at least.
