He wouldn’t.

They can teach some other generic looking dude to look at his hands and act surprised for way less than it would cost to get a Gargano.

He'd have been a "nice to have," rather than a "must have" with AEW. There are plenty of smaller guys who can go in AEW, and honestly, he probably would have been lost in the shuffle. And considering that the current guy in charge has made it clear in the past that he values him as a performer, he probably made the right call to take the WWE contract on offer.

Finn's new song is literally just his old song with different note progression. It's not bad at all. Y'all are so weird and hateful.

The Judgement Day is a bad name though. They should lose the article.

Dude it’s pretty easy to gently caress up a song by taking one and changing it so that it sounds different. And it does sound different and it sounds bad.

Pretty much. In any case, they aren't remotely menacing enough for the Undertaker knockoff slow dirge smoky entrance. Finn is tiny, he can't be doing this poo poo. At the very least, he needs some Braun-sized heater. Priest is big but not that big. And I haven't seen any of their promos in awhile. I think they've moved away from the generic cheap heat stuff, but I haven't heard of them doing any real character building other than just looking like that, for some reason. Do they have a thing outside of hating Edge for no reason?

Gargano was hot as hell till they overexposed/overbooked the feud with Ciampa in typical WWE fashion. Should have called it quits with the first match and moved on but it got worse the more the feud dragged on. Neither of the two ever really recovered from it.

It's "Werewolves of London" combined with "Sweet Home Alabama" and the thing I remember most about the song was white people calling it genius after complaining about sampling in black music for decades.

No, it's a deeply lazy mashup of Werewolves & Sweet Home Alabama, without the fun lyrics (or Warren Zevon) & with the ever lovely Robert Richie singing the most banal poo poo possible.

There's no charm or wit or even an "awooooo". It's all so lazy.

Also the drum intro is just Smells Like Teen Spirit lol

Yeah, sampling is this really cool art that I loving hate copyright got in the way of it. And this is just the least interesting, like the nadir of sampling.

I know they're cheap as gently caress, but they should license some lovely Kid Rock song for Ciampa or some other dipshit's theme.

The only way you should watch WWE again in a way they benefit from is if they prove they don't want to totally monopolize the industry anymore. But that won't happen.

Considering one of the first things that's happened under HHH's is them doing outright contract tampering trying to poach signed AEW wrestlers, no they'll never stop trying to snuff out any wrestling they don't own.
