People do think that Kenny Omega, the same guy who has extremely giving matches with jobbers where he eats a ton of offense is just going to vacate the title.

I'm not making a fucking QCS thread for this but seriously can we take a harder stance on Kiwifarms freaks like this guy, Jesus Christ seriously, you used to be better at knocking these creeps down. I guess ADTRW mods aren't responsible like GBS mods are.
The most surprising thing is that they're not loudly claiming ownership of the success of AEW (Because Cody & The Young Bucks came through), NJPW (Because Tanahashi and Okada came through), and WWE (Because CM Punk and AJ Styles came through)

The thing with the Fiend is, I'm on record as not minding weird supernatural poo poo in wrestling, even if the kind of mainstream wrestling that WWE and AEW do only really allow for small doses.

The problem is, as best I can tell, it's not going anywhere. Randy Orton and Bray Wyatt have fought a bunch and as best I can tell Randy usually wins, esp. the big matches- Wyatt has eked out like a victory or two, but it's not really a feud, because Orton has proven himself the stronger. And yet the angle keeps going, forever.
For all of the LORE OF THE FIEND jokes we make here, it's pretty clear that all the Fiend/Alexa stuff was someone in WWE creative saying "what if every Korn album cover, but wrestling gimmicks" and then stopping there.

To be done with all this measuring of proof.

And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

the kenny oatmeal poster is right, kenny should dominate the entire roster in increasingly lopsidedly booked matches.

I don't want to speak for them but their (obviously baseless) criticisms of AEW are that Tony makes all the same mistakes Dixie did - inconsistent booking, picking up ex-WWE talent at great cost and pushing them ahead of their own, etc. Nothing new, but they are a special brand of deranged.

Of the current AEW champions zero have been on WWE main roster and the only reason i have to make that specific is Lenny Omega and Brian Cage were in developmental over a decade ago.

Edit: was going to fix Lenny Omega but no im keeping it that way

Disagree with the idea that TNT would be done with Dynamite, but I do think if the NHL deal goes through and they want Wednesday nights, they will get it. AEW will be forced to move nights.

You seem to have misread that the tweet said moving off TNT entirely as in being cancelled, not moving nights.

Oh. Definitely looks like it according to the schedule. At least TNT broadcasts games that day. So honestly I don't know where AEW would go if they were forced to move to a different timeslot.

For reference, NBA on TNT airs on Tuesdays and Thursdays. So I guess if they had to move it would be probably on Friday or Saturday. Would lean towards Saturday if anything though, since nothing important seems to air on TNT right now during those days. Unless you really like movies or NCIS marathons.
