I'm glad that AEW is taking food out of Nick Cave's children's mouths.

Just, accept that people will scream ripoff, license the actual song, dress the man in a Guy Ritchie gangster outfit, and while we're at it stylizing his name as the Olympic rings is pretty good but make his logo like Olympic ring brass knuckles instead, and then you've got an English gangster character on your hands, and if you go hard enough on it that'll maybe even help people look past the fact that the most Aryan-looking man in the company is lecturing a biracial immigrant about the virtues of multicultural America

He is already an english gangster character, and apparently it hasn't helped Cody look less white.

Ogogo's look is typical London fashion, it's only riffing on Peaky Blinders in that everyone's riffing on Peaky Blinders these days. Like if you want a British gangster vibe then Will Ospreay's doing that way more closely in New Japan

Jack Whitehall set an elaborate trap to murder Bret Hart at the first Double or Nothing.

That was such a weird choice for a celebrity host. Surely nobody in the US knows who the gently caress he is, and he’s not exactly a household name at home.

Think about it, you hear "Jack Whitehall on the wrestling show", there's at least a chance he'll go through a table.

Anthony Ogogo giving soft spoken, metaphor filled monologues about the nature of violence in between every match, getting his rear end absolutely kicked the entire time, then pulling out the victory even though his body is falling him. I dunno man, sounds more like Darby to me.

If Ogogo is BJ Blazcowitz, who's AEW DoomGuy?

According to Jack Evans, the answer is Jack Evans.

Racial/patriotic/privileged content aside, the promo was just plain poorly laid out. The logical leaps in that thing were insane, but Cody pours on so much raw emotional delivery that it's easy for people to fall into it.

Actually I think I just described all of politics, so I guess that checks out.

Maybe if we all just pick an endless stupid cody promo and all agree to take one for the team and clap and cheer and say "yes, you've finally surpassed the hard times promo you are definitely your dad" he will stop

I didn't realize he was talking about Shahid Khan at the time so I was just completely baffled he was so specifically honoring the inventor of the single piece bumper, of all the things.
