Hate to be that guy but I have to get this off my chest. It´s mind blowing to me how badly AEW constanly drops the ball. I firmly believe TK lacks the ruthless aggresion much needed to get to the pro wrestling top and I´d say it´s probably due to the fact that he´s been handed everything he has whereas guys like Vince, Heyman and Bischoff had to fight for everything they got.
On one hand you have a guy like Wardlow coming off hot of what arguably the best storyline AEW ever had, your have a STAR in your hands and instead of strapping a rocket to the guy and making him the face of your company, you put him in random tag team matches in the middle of the card. A guy that looks like a million bucks, a hard worker, a PR dream, a guy that doesn´t create any backstage drama and as far as we know is universally liked amongst the boys and you barely promote him...
Then you have what is arguably the biggest potential storyline in your hands, the one that blurs the lines, you even send your hottest act (MJF) home for months to play along, and when he comes back you have him cut promos with Wheeler freaking Yuta in the middle of the show? I don´t care about how much the Punk debacle nixed your plans, MJF should be the focal point of your show, at least for the time being.
And speaking of Punk. That whole backstage heat with Punk and Omega and the Bucks... Vince and Bischoff would kill their mothers to have a fraction of that HEAT in their hands. That whole thing is money, all that controversy is ratings, yet they send them all home and there is talks that they are even contemplating about releasing them. The fuck has happened to pro wrestling?
