it's honestly a good thing they got out of Daily's when they did, those wrestler crowds would be done for.

She can do magic but she has no master so she's more similar to Shaq.

Is Thunder Rosa on the show yet? She posted something and tagged the location as Miami so maybe she'll show up and beat some rear end.

JR would be so much better if he stayed up on his poo poo and invested into the product even as a gimmick because of the contrast with his age, delivery, and sensibilities, but he leaned into the easy grumpy old man gimmick and who can blame him really

I can. I can blame him.

WWE has been waiving those for people who ask. No confirmation that he's one of the ones who asked and got out, but it smells like it.

Dave reported that End was expected to sign with AEW when his non-compete was up.

I feel like the basic idea of a guy being really into the details and history of his character is fine, it's just that like, Bray Wyatt's lovely ideas are filtered through Vince McMahon. Tommy filtered through Tony could be fun and not up it's own rear end.

We'll just get more elaborate instagram fiction from him about how the color of the ring he was wearing on his hand that day while looking menacingly into the camera and not saying a word was his way of expressing his character's deep historical lore though accessories

Tony Khan will immediately spend the explosion refund money getting Tommy a personal camera crew and extras for his instagram movies.

She's too busy defending Vince's good name against the misogyny of Dave Meltzer to take a pass through on his first drafts.

Tommy End was a fine name and I'm sure wwe doesnt own it and that aew isn't owning wrestler names so I dont get it.

Also I know the womens division stuff was a few pages ago but I would have assumed they signed Diamante since she won their womens tag tournament which in the end feels like it wasnt actually important and didnt matter.

He wants to connect his new character to his old character. Also, maybe he wants a bit of the brand recognition of his old name because his name being "Black" is more well-known than his name being "Tommy End"

Why he's calling it Malakai Blacks instead of Malakai Black? That one, I have no answer for.

She might not have a job right now but she's got a place in the P&P faction. All it'd take is for MJF to recruit Jade or Deeb

I’m not too worried because AEW has shown they are willing to course correct pretty quickly if something doesn’t click.

They did it with Dark Order, they cut the Nightmare Collective stuff, they stopped the Broken Matt stuff from running too long, made Miro into a killer heel etc.

If End comes in bursting with headcanon that falls flat, I think it’s pretty easily fixable because he still is a talented performer.

Malakai Blacks sounds like a disciple of Damascus

What I'm saying is bring back Damascus for those segments, but continue to run the HFO segments without either acknowledging the other

People undersell how much of the Nightmare Collective was just constantly pivoting to try and wring anything from the initial Brandi and Kong pairing after it became clear that Awesome Kong was washed.
