    Bully Ray contract is up at ROH. He should go to Impact. They desperately need talkers.

    I think that's my biggest frustration as a fan. If you see something that works so well in one promotion , then why not copy and paste that in your promotion.

    I have trouble seeing Kingston doing scripted promos and WWE style wrestling.

    We could have got Orange Cassidy in the WWE! Kingston was the last "big" name they had, right?

    Common sense (to me) anyway, is that other than the tape library, WWE now needs a developmental brand for their developmental. Now all of the various NXT talent that there's no room for on the roster can go perform somewhere.

    Evan Bourne/Matt Sydal was wrestling there. I can see WWE bringing him back for 205.

    From what was brought up he came close to returning a couple years ago. I think what swayed him to ROH was the Executive position he had in the company. Did ROH replace him there with it ?

    Matt riddles broness is so annoying. Is this an actual act or does he really talk like this. How could he have been taken seriously at ufc?

    Timothy Thatcher as Stu Hart is gold.

    John Morrison deserves a title run.

    Sasha and Io lived up to high expectations.

    Breaking Wardlow and MJF would be dumbest thing ever.

    Escobar's faction is awesome sadly , it's lost in the shuffle.

    Private Party has no charisma. Fun in ring performers though.

    AEW has no idea what to do with a big man. There is none with a sense of invincibility.

    I don't think you can get Dexter Lumis as a Babyface psychopath.

    How is the tag team of your most popular stable just jobbing henchmen?

    I think AEW books the big men the way they do because they're interested in generating higher work rates in matches. Big Man booking 101 is to deliver a lot of no selling squashes to make your monster look invinsible, BUT you don't get a lot of stars from Dave booking your matches that way. Booking better matches often means booking them in a more competetive way... but that comes at the expense of generating any sort of aura of invinsibility for your big man.

    The issue with their big man booking is that they are not unique. It makes him just another guy. It would do them some good to have at least one of them be invincible. A guy like Brodie Lee doesn't need to be invincible but guys like Wardlow and Brian Cage do.

    I'm conflicted. Having Riddle feud with Corbin makes me automatically not care at all about it. But if we keep getting stuff like Riddle/Morrison out of it, I guess I can bare to keep up with it and then just ignore the Riddle/Corbin blow off match.

    He really talks like that, but not nearly as bad. His WWE character is hugely exaggerated. I do *hate* the character and find him super annoying. He should be a heel! His gimmick makes him super hateable!
