a new study bible! posted:So I haven’t watched wrestling in a few years. I think the last stuff I can remember was the very beginning of Firefly Funhouse Bray, so forgive me if this is a stupid question, but where are all the cool guys? AJ? Shinsuke? Not that I’d put him in that group but where’s Ziggler and Orton? Have they all just been off for a year? Styles broke his ankle at a house show hours before 2023 started, Orton's still recovering from back surgery from a year ago, Dolph and Shinsuke are healthy but with nothing to do, nobody likes Theory, Cena's too good for this poo poo anymore, and Ricochet sucked up to the company so intensely and so frequently after signing with them that this is his eternal punishment for it (fun fact: it's also apparently the most he's been booked on the main roster at all)

DLC Inc posted:I don't hate Cody and never will but I have to question why he thought the risk was worth it vs remaining a respected EVP/coach/mentor who could have easily gone heel and then done a face turn later in AEW. If you aren't Roman/Brock/Sheamus then your safety is not guaranteed and never will until Vince is dead in the ground i get it but im sad it hasnt worked out for him so far. maybe next year it will happen. i probably wont stick around to find out. give me 6 star workrate forbidden door dream matches with no story line or build thank you very much

People Vince defeated to get to this point: -his own father and the old school gang of carny promoters -the territories in their entirety -the federal government -Billionaire Ted -his own daughter and son-in-law Also I'm assuming he prevented Japan and Mexico from ever gaining a foothold in the American market, he was never threatened by TNA, and the only consequence of AEW's rise is that Vince is more powerful than ever. This guy.

Seams posted:It's funny that between he, the Bucks and Omega it was always Cody who was the most vocally anti-fed. And it made sense. He had been there for years, seen how awful it is, been treated as a joke etc etc. And then he went back lol. Money is a hell of a drug

The wrestlers really seemed to like the stability that HHH brought to the main roster, especially after the chaos of Vince tearing up scripts and re-writing the show as its going on. Not surprising that after having a steady hand on the rudder (In the sense that the booking was marginally more consistent and people knew what the plan was), some people would just rather just leave.

Assuming the Cody stuff is really Vince, it's not a surprise at all. WM was one bad thing, but they didn't even give him a good promo against Roman before punking him to Brock. That they've purposely squandered one of their hottest acts in years for no apparent benefit doesn't bode well for anyone except the Bloodline. Heck, it doesn't even make sense for Brock to attack him. If anything he should want Cody to have the title in order to win it from him.

I love how the 'reports' are always a couple of wrestlers (one high up the card) nobody ever actually leaves they just sign for more money after making a few vague tweets that they might

We haven't had a fat Cody yet. bobby lashley fat and depressed redemption angle is unironically one of the best 'never happened' angles of all time and i desperately, desperately need someone to do it. bobby lashley was a genius for that.
