Cornette himself has said when Khan spoke to him he realized he would be in over his head with guys. That he wouldn't be able to separate business and friends.
The Elite clearly should have lost the EVP position and power the moment the fight happened. Once they went there , Khan should have stepped up and said...your just gonna be talent now. If you don't like it...theres the door. Now as talent we have to view exactly what were doing booking wise with your characters.
Instead Tony did the exact opposite and paid for a Kansas song on a return that weeks in has fizzled out. The rating dropped in the main event and crowd reaction was DOA. No one wants to see these 6 man matches in main event. Omega is a singles star and should honest to god be in a program with MJF trying to get this new big f'n heel over ...and instead he's facing Death Triangle in pointless best of 7 no one gives a f-ck for TV wise.
So Tony won't step in as his All Friends Wrestling just stumbles along. Brian Danielson is a great program sure for MJF. But he's been booked so under whelming lately its ...well its like he was thrown into this situation.

So basically EC3 is claiming Regal regretted the AEW deal once he got backstage. As it was a maturity issues with young talent that led Regal to also race back to the WWE.

Jim Cornette basically ran down a list of veterans who have been ripped on by talents or ignored.
Regal
CM Punk
Billy Gunn
Jim Ross
If your ignoring advice from these guys and you drove 2 of them out of the company...then Tony Khan...STEP THE F--K UP.

You should. There are so many forgotten little (often short) TV B/C-show matches, like (in a match not related to Dustin Rhodes) Ted DiBiase vs Red Rooster Terry Taylor from Prime Time 3/25/90:

It's being claimed online William Regal will be starting back with WWE after 1st of the year.
Also the WWE has started its push to expansion again. There is talks they will look at buying smaller companies in Japan or Mexico to set up performance centers. This as well has seen them recruit again from the indies.
The NWA is not only losing Nick Aldis after the 1st ; Colby Corino will be reporting to NXT. Corino is the son of THE KING OF OLD SCHOOL...Steve Corino."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.

Golddust vs Razor Ramon at RR 96 was pretty good too. Originally Posted by JBatmanFan05

A fun match perhaps (though not to everyone), though the fun character work of it comes at the expense of the wrestling, which is kinda secondary in the match. I'm personally a bit "meh" on it. Though if I had to rank "Goldust only" singles matches, I'd certainly list it (but part of that would be that there wasn't a lot of contenders). Originally Posted by krazijoe

While it would be nice he gets that nod for Ring of Honor...I really don't think Dustin needs that. He's a solid talent who had a 4 decade run and became his own man as we saw. Originally Posted by choptop

The young guys could learn a lot from him. If they chose to in AEW.

Regal was granted a conditional release.
His AEW contract was through December 31, 2023.
TK gave him a release to be with his son in WWE since he's having some substance issues.
Regal cannot be on TV in 2023 but can work and help his son immediately.
So good on TK and HHH to work something out."Always listen to the crazy scientist with a weird van or armful of blueprints and diagrams." -- Vibranium

What he can do is show them how to fully embrace any gimmick given to them. He is probably the only one who could have pulled off that Golddust gimmick for as long as he did. What turned into a joke/rib/payback, made literal Gold by him, with ancillary help from Terri. Originally Posted by SUPERECWFAN1

No he doesn't need it I'm just thinking it would be a nice send off he can win it and retire the next day. Originally Posted by SUPERECWFAN1

Starks vs. MJF for the ring gives Starks the rub and win over MJF so he can later retain the title.

There's an article on wrestlinginc about Miro's whereabouts/update. It says he's ready to work, but hasn't been contacted with a story line for him. Seems in the comments there that many (like me) think the God's Chosen Champion/Redeemer role is perfect for him and would be terrific to continue.
He is one talent that should not be part of a stable. The dude is a human wrecking ball. Plus using him individually adds to his one-man, chosen by God character to be on his own, disdained by others, imbued with strength, etc. etc (insert all the mythology parallels)
He could certainly use the whole "kept at home" thing as being continually persecuted by non-believers.
I think AEW should use/build-up a smarmy heel character or actually even a whole heel group(not sure who to go with, MJF of course is tops as an individual, but maybe the Firm works too?), Christian and Luchsaurus? ). The heel(s) goes off in the ring...then Miro's horns sound and he comes to the ring and clears it.
