Well they basically made a big mistake cutting so many 2 years ago and left the company with a lack of main event depth at one point. The additions of Bray Wyatt and Strowman can help them add depth back if they attempt to split the World titles apart again. (which I'm not in favor of...I like the building of tag teams (hence stables) and a real solid 10 man Main Event scene at least.Originally Posted by choptop

Most of the guys who got cut should have never lost their jobs. On NXT, the booking was good about rotating the roster. It's a good way to keep things fresh and give guys small breaks. KO hasn't been featured in a few shows but that opened the door for more Austin Theory. Originally Posted by choptop

While I think AEW had a great 1st show after the PPV backstage brawl ; things have started to see the company lose momentum now. They took a $$$ deal where MJF got in a spot where they could spend weeks having him and Moxley interact to really sell Full Gear on PPV in November and well...they haven't. They have had MJF busy in a program with Yuta. Which if you go online NO ONE believes Yuta should be in this program with him right now as he's not on MJF's level.
Honestly they could have had Claudio be the guy against Max and instead they didn't. Its one of those...why is MJF wasting his f'n time with Wheeler Yuta right now ?
But where Khan could have thought of sending the Elite and Punk away ; he has to think...do I really wanna do that ? Because beyond that 1 hot week things have slowed. So maybe its best to have all of them back and get them on a same page in 2023."The story so far: As usual, Ginger and I are engaged in our quest to find out what the hell is going on and save humanity from my nemesis, some bastard who is presumably responsible." - Sir Digby Chicken Caesar.

MJF and Yuta have history apparently. This only works when the fans are privy to this history but we are not. Though it's likely being used to plant the seeds for a possible face turn for MJF. Originally Posted by SUPERECWFAN1

So the WWE will be in Philadelphia PA for Wrestlemania 40. So I think its time the WWE called 2 guys they had issues with but deserve a WWE Hall of Fame nod. Yes....
I mean the last decade the company has made peace with Jeff Jarrett and the Ultimate Warrior. So I mean with Jarrett ...that is a holy crap deal. Plus Scott Steiner too. I mean that is wild to think those inductions happened.
Raven is one who has worked in WWE at one time and could be a fun interview. He did return for Table for 3 years ago so maybe its time to sit down and work something out here. Also Raven has told in shoots he was supposed to work One Night Stand originally. TNA approved it...then changed their minds and wouldn't let him.
Shane Douglas deserves to go in for his ECW run and how he propelled that company up. Without him there wouldn't have been an ECW to start with. So I am kinda hoping Shane and the WWE can come to a nice peace here like Scott Steiner did and them admit , hey we wanna give you this. You deserve it etc.
Seeing Flair mad will be pretty funny over it. Douglas has tried to be nice to him the past bunch of years saying he was young and angry then. That he would be hoping the 2 could have a peace deal. (Douglas did send condolences over Reid passing away and really felt for Flair over that from what he detailed). Ric however weirdly still is angry at Shane Douglas over it.
Anyhow seeing both men go in would be good. They both deserve a WWE Hall of Fame deal and having them each get a home video release or something on Peacock would be cool. Raven with his travels and what WWE owns would be good. Then Douglas too has the same deal (both worked territories like UWF , WCW and more that WWE owns library wise.Last edited by SUPERECWFAN1; 10-12-2022 at 08:33 PM.

The ratings 2 weeks ago dipped below 1+ million viewers for the 1st time after so many. Then they did the 3rd anniversary show which propped it back up.... Originally Posted by BeastieRunner

They need someone to run a program with MJF while he waits to spring his shot on Mox. Yuta makes the most sense because he's part of Mox's faction and can eat a loss to MJF without losing much.
They probably want to save Claudio vs MJF for after MJF has the belt, since Claudio is main event material

I'm glad for him. A good match. I bristle at this one friend of mine who talks of Orange only as a comedic gimmick wrestler. He is not. I would not be a fan of Orange at all if I didn't see all the hard work and craft in his wrestling. Originally Posted by BeastieRunner

Things I love: Batman, Superman, AEW, old films, Lovecraft
Grant Morrison: “Adults...struggle desperately with fiction, demanding constantly that it conform to the rules of everyday life. Adults foolishly demand to know how Superman can possibly fly, or how Batman can possibly run a multibillion-dollar business empire during the day and fight crime at night, when the answer is obvious even to the smallest child: because it's not real.”
