StarkRavingMad posted:I agree and also feel like they're two very different signings. DBry is a "there's a bunch of dream matches we can have" guy. Punk, you're bringing in as a personality. There’s a bunch of CM Punk matches I’d like to see. He’s a guy who really got on the map because of a dog collar match with Raven and a match where he did headlocks for an hour. He can have great matches with the guys in AEW because even in his early 40s he really has never done anything he can’t do now. Except the Pepsi Plunge.

Evil Badman posted:For what it's worth, AEW has been really good about their high-profile hires. I don't think any of them (Miro, Mox, Christian, Sting, etc.) have been immediately injected into any title program. They've done starting angles with other talent. Christian held up the world belt on like his 2nd appearanmce with the company but thankfully theyve forgotten about that

Pylons posted:Brodie was, but those are kind of understandable circumstances. Ehhhh even Brodie killed jobbers for like a month before challenging Mox. One can assume that if they hadn't been operating on a skeleton crew at that time he probably would've been beating midcarders instead.

In a more interesting and AEW related things: Does anyone have the gif of our beloved Hollywood Honk running around the ring and doing a crossbody splash on a big indie guy but he does nothing to that guy and falls to the ground? It was a Cezar Bononi iirc. This but "I'm pessimistic because Vince and Triple H hurt me before"

Punk and Bryan are debuting as a tag team. And they're jobbing to TH2.

TomWaitsForNoMan posted:Christian held up the world belt on like his 2nd appearanmce with the company but thankfully theyve forgotten about that to be fair, i think its ok for a new guy to come out and declare his intentions that way, but its even better that in AEW that doesn't mean you just get a title shot because you said you wanted it, he has been wrestling a lot and winning but he's still not in the top 5 of wins so he has to keep working for it and that rocks

Hangman Page beats Kenny Omega in the "All Out" main event for the AEW World Championship. Hangman and the Dark Order celebrate with drinks, and then CM Punk comes out and knocks the drink out of Hangman's hand.

TomWaitsForNoMan posted:Christian held up the world belt on like his 2nd appearanmce with the company but thankfully theyve forgotten about that I mean that was basically just them getting some B-roll. The next week Christian immediately said "well yeah I know I gotta get wins first." IcePhoenix posted:Matt Cardona Yes. Sign Matt Cardona. Worst case scenario, he's a TV-ready guy who looks good and can talk and can work that you can put with people on Dark Elevation to get them reps with a good vet. Having said that, I think Cardona is probably enjoying himself more as a (I think relatively highly pushed?) guy in Impact and doing poo poo with Nick Gage on the indies.

I don’t think that the roster is bloated either, and I really enjoy the stories weaving in and out of Dynamite with these special events. I like seeing different focuses around the edges. sometimes Kenny Omega isn’t even on the show and it builds around a match between people that maybe you wouldn’t have thought you could build a show around a few years ago. Dynamite has never felt stagnant except for maybe some of the preempted shows. I don’t think you can have “too much” talent in a wrestling company. wrestling is already too much! that’s why it rules!

Gonzo McFee posted:Don't get me wrong, I want to see Punk in AEW. But AEW already has an absolutely bloated roster and only two hours of TV time, going up to three. I think they do a really good job rotating people in and out. Where WWE spends 45 minutes per episode on a single guy every week, AEW has an ebb and flow to who's headlining. Look at last week's show, it was drat near perfect pacing. Add an hour for Rampage to that, and they're doing just fine with the roster they have. Now that they're on the road and have their roster solidified too, they can also give more attention to things that were lacking before, like angles on Dark and more women's matches. I also don't think that Punk and/or Bryan would tip that balance too much; they'd make them pick up wins just like everyone else before they could challenge for belts. I think the only issue is that some of the divisions have too many contenders in them, but that's part of why everyone's clamoring for Trios titles. karmicknight posted:This does check out, yeah.  Hey, just a reminder that you wanted to name the Dynamite thread after Schiavone's "Fyter Fest 2 Night" flub on Dark.
