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.

To be fair, I think he also hit the gas as soon as he got released took advantage of the opportunity to focus on strength training during his time off

if the gas adds several inches in height too i should look for a hook up

He could also show up for Strong whenever and be a really good veteran to build that show around if he wanted to do more NJPW than AEW without uprooting his family. But yeah, I'd really like to see him in AEW, I think he'd be a great fit and the way AEW schedules and paces its shows would let him conserve himself, like how they're doing right now with Christian.

Yeah, I imagine keeping the more limited schedule in a post-pandemic world also entices him, plus he still wants to prove he can be a major star in a U.S. promotion after WWE completely fumbled him from his first Wrestlemania until… now, really. The former WWE could offer with “well you only have to work TVs and PPV”, but the latter is, well, four plus years now of booking that more resembles a Pollack painting than an actual sketched out idea of where he was going.

Also hearing Excalibur yell “BOMA YE!” would be pretty awesome, Nakamura was long gone when Ex got to call those World Tag League shows in 2018 so he never got a chance.

If he wants that he could just do limited dates for New Japan they don't care about people doing a few special matches.

on second listen the Andrade theme is Good but goddamn, certain themes you cannot loving hear at ALL and they still have not fixed this, it has been like 2 years.

perfectly fine with the Factory being kicked to the goddamn curb in favor of Black being Cody's next feud. I'd be ok seeing literally anyone else get tv time over QT and Solow. Now's the time to pull the trigger and make sure guys like Ricky, PAC, Miro, Andrade, Black, etc get maximum time---they probably have the best roster in wrestling now, no need to hold back on their shiny new toys they rescued from WWE.

Kenny can heel any explanation he wants, do a call he Unamericans and say he only wants to defend against a fellow Canadian. Wouldn’t be the first time a champ got to call their shot against someone not ranked #1.

I want to complain about it but I honestly love that the whole thing was QT going "Cody doesn't really respect me and thinks he's better than me" and the entire thing just being a resounding "yes"

So.

Miro, Andrade, Tommy End, probably Matthew Adams too.

WWE botched a bunch of can't-miss prospects, cut them for no reason and AEW quietly raided a huge chunk of what should've been their future right out from under them.

Mox, too! Mox used to wrestle for WWE, remember that?

Lead Pipe Cinch posted:

So Christian beats Matt next week, Kenny uses that to justify giving him atheshot at Fight for the Fallen to avoid Hangman until All Out?

Clearly anyone who might jump the line ahead of Hangman would be obviously filler destined to lose, but I think Christian of all people would be the most... wasteful? Pointless? Not only that but in character if he was offered the spot I feel like after a long promo insinuating he would kick Kenny’s rear end, he’d say he didnt out work Hangman- and that’s who deserves it right now.

They can fight after Kenny loses to Hangman for, I dont know, the TNA belt.

He's been tapping into Aunt May's bank account!
Didn't I kill him with a HELICOPTER?
In my head, it's LUCHA BROS beat yb in a hair vs mask match. Hardy offers his services to the Elite, for a steep fee, since he always liked teaming with them and hates hangman and do. The plan is to help in both matches, but the tag match becomes war. Mox and Eddie square off with good brothers. Kaz kills Cutler. Robo beats up Kaz. Ten and Wheeler run in but pp are there. And th2. Silver, Reynolds and five. Butcher blade and hardy vs colt Stu and uno. Finally, the faces gain the upper hand when hangman gets involved. Lucha bros manage to win clean. Hangman is a bit banged up, but everyone else is practically dead. No run ins for the aew belt, just Kenny and Adam.
