  1. It'll be tricky for them. They don't have any monster heels on the roster for him to stand up to and he can't really do the every man under dog thing because he's kissed managements arses and he's very publicly the company favourite to lead the shows going forwards. I'm not really sure where there is to go with him that can maintain his current popularity.
  2. I doubt he'd go back into wrestling but I can definitely see him getting involved in some kind of live events promotion, concerts and the like.
  3. The biggest problem with the Hook story is that they've already had a singles match and Hook beat him so what the fuck are we even doing here? The story they are currently telling only works if a) they haven't wrestled yet or b) they have and Jericho won.
  4. With Jericho these days it doesn't really feel like he's building anything meaningful up or adding to his body of work. It just feels like he's coming up with stuff week by week as an excuse to desperately cling on to TV time.
  5. I'm sorry but someone being Champion of the universe while also having someone who's "only" Champion of the world is just so insane and stupid I can't get my head around it at all.
  6. I don't think there's anything worse than "Universal Champion". The stupidest title name in wrestling and it's their top belt! Inexcusable.
  7. I'm two episodes in and struggling with it a bit. The sheer amount of slow motion and wacky humour isn't really working for me. I think the Fallout games managed to perfectly blend satirical humour and horror while the TV show seems to be focusing more on the humour and overlooking the misery and disturbing cruelty of the wasteland. I'll probably give it one or two more episodes.
  8. Hook vs Shane Taylor was probably Hook's best singles match yet. Shane Taylor is really great. He's fat, talks trash and has spectacular punches and forearms - what more could anyone want from a wrestler? Really fun match with these two and worth seeking out. Also the pre-match segment with Hook and Shibata was top stuff and these two need a proper tag run. Shibata communicating via a female voiced translator on his phone is such a goddamn clever and great idea and adds some much needed levity to his super serious intense character. These two together just work and I'd love to see them vs the Young Bucks or FTR which are matches that never crossed my mind before. But alas, Jericho will get in the way for fucks sake.
  9. Collision is often a very easy, relaxing and satisfying watch and this weeks ticked all the boxes I want from my wrestling B shows. Special mention for the fun main event which had a good story going into it of the Callis Family intent on wearing down Danielson and Castagnoli to protect the golden goose Ospreay. Then the match itself told a strong story where Hobbs/Fletcher are younger, faster and more physically and athletically gifted and focusing on big moves to take out their opponents but their opponents were tougher, more experienced and technically skilled that they were eventually able to overwhelm the Callis Family. Good shit, real graps.
  10. In the kindest possible way, I think you need to stop immediately assuming that every time someone disagrees with you or questions your posts it's because they are being over sensitive or overly defensive of AEW. Maybe they just disagreed with you, are making a joke or believed you have a bad or incorrect take on something. As for your ten - Mox is the heart and soul of AEW and should stay there forever. Kingston, the realest man in wrestling, would never thrive in the artificial environment of WWE. I don't think Penta would get anywhere notable in WWE and would never mesh with the WWE ring style - he's being massively underutilised in AEW though for sure. And Jay White just needs the right push to get back on track in AEW, I can't imagine WWE doing much with him. My ten: 1. Chris Jericho - obvious "he's shite now" jokes aside, I think he probably does his best work when he feels he has to prove himself. It'd be interesting to see him fight for a spot in the "new era" of WWE and what he'd come up with. 2. Wardlow - he's hit a ceiling in AEW but there feels like there's something there and he just needs experience to unlock it which WWE would be able to give him. 3. Adam Cole - MJF tag team aside, he's never worked in AEW but he seems to be well thought of by Triple H and HBK so he'd probably get a good push back in WWE. 4. Britt Baker - done it all in AEW while being also pretty shite in the ring but her personality could get her far in WWE. 5. Jeremy Bowens - I like him a lot. But I don't think he's ever going to reach the level of wrestling that AEW requires from its top stars. I can't see him putting on a 5 star match. But he's young, good looking, likeable, charismatic and in WWE, the land of 3 star matches, he could do very well. 6. Sammy Guevara - probably the most overpushed wrestler in AEW history but I reckon WWE could get something more out of him. With the right guidance and training could fit into a Dominic Mysterio or early Miz type slot and do pretty good for himself. Already pretty much wrestles the WWE style so would be up and running quickly. 7. John Silver - love him to death and a huge wasted opportunity by AEW. In WWE he could easily be a very successful modern day Crash Holly. 8. Ricky Starks - AEW for unknown reasons are never going to get behind him and he seemingly wants out so farewell. Can't see him doing anything but fill one of the experienced vets at NXT type roles though. 9. Preston Vance - bit of a nothing act but he looks good and is a solid meat and potatoes type worker. Maybe some time at the PC will bring something out of him. 10. All Ego Ethan Page - another guy I really like but they have no interest in pushing him for reasons unknown so yeah send him off to WWE. He'd fit in very easily and shine as a midcard heel there.
  11. They've already done Okada vs Danielson im AEW and it was bang average. I'd rather not see it again.
  12. I'm assuming we have Ospreay vs Pac at All In to crown the Best British Wrestler or something along those lines.
