Paid Members LaGoosh Posted December 7, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted December 7, 2020 Who even are Impacts stars if they have any? The names associated with it (Joe, AJ, Daniels, Roode etc) haven't worked there for years. No idea who they could put up against AEW if they go that way. Is Cowboy James Storm still there? Him and Dustin Rhodes could have a cracker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not unless they start defecting like the old Invasion stuff and that always gets pretty messy. There's a few random matches I'd be happy to see but I can't see a full on company war being the way to go at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merzbow Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 I really hope Hungman joins the Dark Orgy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackpot Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 Could the two biggest talking points of last week's episode come together as the ending? A working relationship with Impact who talk their first Hall of Fame inductee, Sting round to joining Callis & Omega. Eventually leading to Kenny v Cody (who Sting betrays somewhere down the line) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dark Order stuff is being wasted on BTE. Drunk John Silver belongs on TV. This stuff is absolutely gold.

Tsurutagun Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 Don't know what the best bit of Hangman coming across the Dark Order booze fest was Uno calling him Hungman and asking him to join the "Dark Orgy", Anna Jay corpsing in the background or the anticipation of Dave Meltzer giving his review of this in the way Dave usually does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vamp Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 I think people are overthinking the Impact angle. It seems just as likely that Kenny Omega pitched it to Tony Khan because he wanted to work with a friend and do him a favour and Khan just said yes. Its a good job they had Sting really or else the big hook coming out of their biggest episode of Dynamite is for another promotion. Mental really. It'll be interesting to see how much direction Kenny has over the booking of the AEW championship going forward. It'll also be interesting to see what that means for the women's division. Glad Leyla Hirsch got on the telly. She's got a lot of potential. With the right booking I think she'd get over big, I'm just not sure where she'd get the right booking.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd have to think TNT would be against it. But who knows? It's not PG, so, like, they could, but I don't know if they'd want... but then, Edge did the live sex celebration! So who knows? Maybe on Dark, but that'd be a step down for Adam Page, so you gotta think they're planning on it for Dynamite." Assuming they didn't bullshit it, the timing of the 'and Neeeee-eeewww' in the background was phenomenonal. And that was the first time I've seen Hangman corpse.  3 hours ago, Vamp said: I think people are overthinking the Impact angle.

Mental really. I don't think it's going to be a full invasion angle, but more the beginning of something like how they're working with NWA. We'll have occasional appearances and defences. I'm really excited for what a change this is. All of wrestling exists, people can come in with their own gimmicks, and they'll explain why it's a big deal if someone turns up and challenges. It's so simple, but it's so different to how people perceive WWE, which usually feels more self-contained (although I'm aware this is less than it used to be). If the NJPW relationship is improving, the idea of occasionally bringing in big-name talent from NWA, Impact or NJPW could be really exciting, long-term. Don't over-focus on them, but every now and then? Could be awesome, especially if they start doing more tournaments, etc over time.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
