Hobbs and Wardlow both suck and the experiments should be ended.

I like having a place to talk about AEW being garbage. But that was the best episode of wrestling I've ever seen.

MJeff posted:Not that I wanted to see MJF and Joe do a Can They Coexist match against Jungle Boy and Wardlow desperately trying to hide their movesets or whatever, but it's kinda hosed up that they advertised it and then just didn't do it. One of the pillars of AEW's booking used to be, if a match is advertised, you're gonna get it and you're gonna get a finish. I didn't really expect a Can They Coexist match because especially by the promo earlier in the night it was clear they could. I wanted an interesting match with intrigue, maybe the henchmen teasing by using moves or mannerisms from other wrestlers, and then progression on the story. The bait and switch was a bit of a bitch move. Also, gotta question the WWE booking of what should be a giant match between Christian and Adam Copeland in Canada ending with interference from another wrestler's mom. I mean, come on.

Fish Of Doom posted:I think the trios belts were a cool idea in early 2022 when Death Triangle and House of Black were putting on absolute bangers and you had like 8 different teams that could compete for them. But then most of those teams broke up and now they're just low card filler belts that don't even get onto the PPVs, so I guess it's just another thing that used to be cool that became shitified in 2023, like the world title. Yeah there was that point like around when reDRagon showed up when the tag team scene was so insanely stacked it looked like there would be a wildly competitive tag and trios scene and it's just been loving decimated. The trios belts have been dead from the start due to Punk and the tag titles have devolved to Big Bill having one. Crazy fall.

Sticky Nate posted:I hope the devil stuff is resolved quickly and never brought up again. I like the devil stuff because it's the only actual story line in AEW. Everything else is just the tournament and "I want your belt!/You can't have my belt!" Toni Storm is doing funny stuff but there's no angle. Maybe there will be with Mariah May some day but now it's just "Riho wants belt". Julia and Abadon are just "Hey we got two spooky girls on our roster!" but not really a story line. There's intrigue over the tournament and if Eddie is going to kill himself or if Bryan's eyeball is going to fall out, but that's not really a story line. Hangman and Swerve is over, I guess. The devil stuff is the only thing they got going on!

The way they've told the devil story the only logical person it could be is MJF and that's also the crappiest and most boring option.

I think it'd be cool if two masked guys beat Joe and MJF for the tag titles and we don't know who they are for awhile. If it's not obvious. But next week could be a bait and switch like the last time they advertised the match, so...

I've never understood why Sting doesn't do the face paint to his hairline instead of just doing the face paint to where his hairline was 20 years ago. One time in AEW he did have black paint go all the way to his hairline and it looked so much better. Thanks, love the thread, I'll take my answer off the air.

I've had a theory about the devil that started with me joking around and coming up with the worst possible reveal for this angle, but I've slowly started coming around to the idea that my stupidest idea possible might actually be where they're going. The devil is Tony Khan. Let me show my work on this theory: MJF debuted The Devil gimmick when he came back from his worked shoot contract tantrum with Tony. Now Tony has decided to commandeer the persona for his revenge. Tony's goal is to get MJF to lose the championship before The Bidding War of 2024 so MJF can't hold the title hostage. Joe is his chosen corporate champion. Joe relinquished the ROH TV title to prove his loyalty to Tony Khan and because Khan promised him the biggest prize in return. Tony as the Devil has psychologically worn MJF down by attacking both his enemies and friends, thus isolating him. Now he's physically worn down and can be more easily destroyed by Joe. This also explains why the Devil would help soften up MJF for Joe. Why would another wrestler do all this to MJF just to let Joe reap the rewards? Because it's not a wrestler. It's Tony Khan. Remember that Dynamite where Tony dragged Cole and MJF into his office and screamed at them, but was all nice in front of the camera? That was the planting the seeds. Also, Tony grew up on 90s wrestling. How long could he possibly resist doing his own heel turn and living out a Bischoff/Mr. McMahon/Higher Power angle.

Chris James 2 posted:The Player's Tribune essay does kinda feel like what someone would do and say if their deal was actually basically done and this was their last show, but at the same time a) they don't deserve the benefit of the doubt and b) it may actually make it worse if they knew he was gone (with or without his injury status, with or without it being what he wanted/booked) and this/the Devil stuff was the best they could do, or wanted to do, to fill the time for his farewell I'm assuming MJF secretly re-signed before he came back from his tantrum. If Tony really didn't get him to extend his contract before giving him this giant push and focus then he is a much bigger idiot than I thought.

UnleashedDad posted:The Devil thing being MJF's thing makes more and more sense cause the guy is just protecting himself. The Devil's crew feels non-threatening as a whole, I'm not even sure what they are scared or worried about. A lot of stuff is just off screen and you have to make assumptions. If you saw these people running roughshod through the company and MJF it might mean something but otherwise who care. Aside from my dumb idea of it being Tony Khan no one else really makes sense. Why would they soften up MJF for Joe and not themselves? They've attacked MJF's enemies, friends, and sometimes just people tangentially related to MJF like Hangman. I think we're supposed to forget that this started with them beating up Jay White. but yeah, no one would really make sense. The person who made the most sense after Tony was MJF himself, but that's out now. I doubt they knew who it was when they started the angle.

I choose to believe the reason the Keith Lee/Swerve match has been delayed over a year is because Keith Lee kept refusing to do the job. That would be very funny.

Hedgehog Pie posted:What was he even implying? This stuff confuses me. Sounds to me he's doing the "Tony isn't treating me like the best very special boy that he should because I was a midcarder in WWE" act that Andrade, Miro, and Malakai are always pulling. See it's not being constantly injured that is keeping him off tv, it's that darned Tony Khan. But also, he had to be pulled from the ppv because he's injured.

Haven't checked to see what's booked tonight but I hope it involves Swerve, Julia Hart, Jay White, Eddie Kingston, and bring back the Young Bucks and Jack Perry. Less of the things that aren't those people.
