And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

Not really fair to call Austin Theory a star. He may be a household name, but that's because he has to introduce himself to everyone in the neighborhood when he moves.

They had to bring in tons of old names and part timers and celebrities for the Rumble and they're currently struggling to fill two full nights of what is supposed to be their flagship PPV

I don't think they are struggling to fill two nights or even expected to fill both nights. One night Wrestlemanias don't even always sell out. 50,000+ on both nights with one night already above 60,000 tickets out is very good.

tbf that's less a headcount thing and more a "we've made our entire roster look like losers" thing. Couldn't put Cesaro, Nakamura, or Balor in the Rumble because who could possibly care. Gotta have Shane, though.

Madcap Moss is 2 years older than AEW champ Adam Page and has been working with the WWE for more than 8 years, which coincidentally is how much older he is than Jungle Boy

"Young" stars

Edit: he's the same age as Nick Jackson, lol

That's not what they're doing on AEW television though. A lot of fans just have the inability to separate TV, social media, and real life from each other. It's also an angle that was very obviously intended for Cody & Brandi before they hosed off, so the tweener vibes were always going to happen anyway.

Alaois posted:

My favorite part is that he thinks pushing Cody to main event level somehow counts as WWE building new stars. I think DrewMac leaving, making a name for himself in Impact, and then returning at champion level broke their brains a bit.

Speaking of Impact, it's also really telling that none of them bitch about Impact when an ex-WWE talent shows up there. If there are WWE stans complaining that Impact actually made Big Cass watchable, I haven't seen them.

It's probably more indicative of Impact's profile in wrestling right now. It's, I'm told, churning out a decent product but it struggles to get 150K people watching most weeks and still kinda feels like a black hole. The WWE stans are mad at AEW because it basically emerged as the #2 company from launch, and Impact has been going for almost 2 decades and you'd never know it.

I'd probably watch Impact more if I could ever remember when and where it airs. The commentary team was a big blocker for me because it was just so bad, but I know that's been revamped lately. Still have no idea when their shows are on.

I used to catch it randomly on Thursday nights on Twitch, not sure if they're still doing that.
