The Roddy pretapes have run their course, fine. Maybe should have cut them off a little earlier. Gone With the Storm was a masterpiece.

Roddy works best interrupting things, but I've enjoyed the pretapes well enough, hopefully they're done with them or have only a pay off left, instead of dragging out Cole's entire injury as 'he was guilt tripped into doing chores at Strong's house.' I

every era of AEW has had what can be considered trash sports entertainment bits or goofy indie poo poo but every time there's a New Thing people pretend like it's some massive shift or departure or fall from grace from something AEW never was remember when Jericho was wearing the belt and full gear in the hot tub and got out and argued with a drone and then Matt Hardy teleported that was like the first year of the company remember The Bubbly Bunch bebaloorpabopalo fucked around with this message at 08:55 on Oct 20, 2023 |

The most “WWE” thing about the Roddy stuff isn’t the content itself, it’s that they ran it into the ground. It would be like if they did the Dinner Debonair every week for a month.

While I like the Timeless Toni Storm bits, I'm about ready for them to lead to some wrestling. Maybe she can fight Taya Valkyrie for the rights to be the most dramatic blonde in the company.

I wonder if Yuka is going back to TJPW briefly just to work out any ring rust and to test out that neck before she comes back to AEW. I hope they do her return properly.

I'm fairly sure they've said she'll push her graduation date back somewhat so they can do it properly but I could be wrong about that.

She was always planning to finish the year in TJPW, the Dramatic DDT blog suggests this may be pushed back a little but I imagine she'll be gone and used as frequently as all the other Japanese women AEW book so well (with maybe an exception for Shida) by March

It helps that she's extremely capable of working in AEW's ring unlike some of the other joshi that get brought over.

https://twitter.com/LaRoccaJL/status/1715186885600174278 The use of masked guys goes from Fenix and Penta who have held multiple titles, main evented big Dynamites and been in huge PPV matches to Serpentico who is a comedy jobber. If they only used Mistico to the level they do Fenix they'd have a guy they could main event Dynamite with and Mistico is a much, much bigger star.

TV Zombie posted:I wonder why that might be the case since I remember that most of the joshi came from tjpw. It's really a mystery to me too. The only thing I can think is there's some mental block for, say, Miyu or Shoko or Itoh that Yuka either got past very quickly or never had at all. I've sometimes thought it's related to the ring size (AEW has a larger ring) and maybe the way different wrestlers have movesets that are better suited for adjustment than others. It's why I think they should really try to get Miu Watanabe over for a short run, her moveset is incredibly simple. Pylons fucked around with this message at 15:43 on Oct 20, 2023 |

AEW should probably do more to distinguish between their masked guys though. I'm not saying give one a foot fetish gimmick, I'm just saying it.worked for LA Parka.

Except that's not how they are billing Mistico at all so I have no idea what this complaint is about.
