Hit Row had like three good promos on NXT, completely flopped on the main roster and then Top Dolla got everybody fired by being an idiot and Swerve immediately went on to better things.

I understand at the time that people felt like it was a hot act with a lot of potential but the idea that it was some holy grail can't miss thing? Swerve has already exceeded it with what he's doing now.

They legit had cool presentation and felt very modern which is rare for wwe, but yeah they were around for what a month?

I almost exclusively follow WWE through podcasts and text so I although I know the names of WWE people I don't know what a lot of them look like and I was unaware Swerve had been part of that group or WWE at all. lol

the only thing I actually remember about Hit Row was that their first few promos people thought were great and then they clearly got Writers Involved and they sucked after that

I'm not interested in constructive criticism, believe me.
the hit row guy was making a very obvious joke in the vein of the people who talk about mox coming back to The Shield except using a stable nobody ever gave a gently caress about

You have to keep in mind that in these peoples minds, everything that happens in WWE is automatically better than anything any other wrestling promotion does because it has the most viewers. Thus, it doesn't matter if Swerve and Keith Lee hold the AEW tag belts for like 2 straight years, they'll still say both guys were used better in WWE

Except that's not the case. WWE has tried every trick in the book to fight AEW from NXT on USA to attempting to sign any indie wrestler who appeared on Dynamite before AEW could to leaking stories in the press to running an NXT show the day of All Out. And then there is them trying to pick a fight with an overrun against Rampage and losing to the Bunny. WWE very much treats it like a war.

I mean, yeah, WWE thinks it's a war, WWE thinks a lot of wrong things.

It’s one of those things that drives me insane. I bought a t shirt from Danielson at PWG bola 08. Gave him a 20 dollar bill and everything. The idea that he was made in wwe just baffles me.

I remember that NXT match between Swerve and... Leon Ruff? which might actually be the last great NXT match. It ended when Top Dollar interfered.

Don't Top Dollar and Swerve dislike eachother anyway?

Sammy Guevara did a skit making fun of him on his vlog back when the vlog wasn’t awful and that’s the only good thing Top Dolla was ever linked to.

Hit Row had exactly one match on the main roster, squashing two jobbers in 80 seconds on the October 22, 2021 episode of Smackdown. They had a few promos before or after that, I think.

That's their entire main roster experience. John Silver, Kris Statlander, Matt Jackson, and various AEW stars who have only done jobber squash matches have had more in-ring main roster time than Hit Row.

Jobbernation is very obviously just a liar who says any old poo poo for a response, but I truly believe you could make some of their credulous followers believe absolutely anything by saying there were "rumours" about it.

Hearing reports that the Acclaimed are SICK of AEW and are getting lawyers involved to get out of their contracts. They could be debuting on Smackdown as the new members of Hit Row within the next two weeks!

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.

this entire thing is based on that Kenny's contract is up in February 2023, as he signed a four year in 2019.
