Hangman should bring back the luxury mower he got in the BTE dark order segments and run over swerve with it

I think wrestlers acknowledging and promoing about "I'm gonna finish higher than you in the RANKINGS" is a terrible decision. Yes rankings determine the number one contender, but BEING NUMBER ONE CONTENDER is what they should give a poo poo about, winning the gold and kicking this person's rear end is what they should care about, not "well my math tells me my won-loss record is better than yours, don't you dare try to claim that you, a peon, will finish higher in the rankings than moi." Seems like a desperate attempt by Tony to try to make the rankings matter by having the wrestlers mention them in their promos as if they're important

This wasn't happening unless I missed something. Swerve was saying that he's beaten Page twice and shouldn't have to fight him again to be in front of the line

Out of curiosity is this thread for "legitimate gripes about AEW's problems" or is it "completely make believe stuff, invented to make AEW seem worse than it actually is"?

Because AEW has plenty of legit problems but "Hangman can't promo" is stretching pretty far lmao.

Real to you, completely make believe stuff to everyone else. It's not that hard.

Hangman can promo but only if you want that promo to be "I'm a cowboy and I'm crying and I'm brgghghrgh and I'm gonna fight you"

If this was the 80's they would have had Swerve captive bolt Hangman's favorite cow instead of his baby. Would have been better.

I'm in favor of wrestlers acknowledging the rankings but only if they go 110%. I need to see guys shoving print-outs of the rankings in other guys faces or whipping out PWI 500 rankings and complaining about stuff

The Cringe Losers Acclaimed were fine until they weren’t, very short shelf life for that gimmick. So bad right now that they might need to go under masks for a while, rebrand as an evil frog-themed tag team, have them do some dark match reps against Faboo Andre and Aron Solo.

I'm still pretty high on Bowens. But Caster has smashed into his ceiling and the act hasn't been unique or funny in at least a year.

Basically they took the old-school advice of "just get a catchphrase and merch over and you'll never have to work again" and are stretching it as far as it can go.
