[BEAST]

Great mascots, BG.

Wednesday hype.

 

[GoldenAzazel]

I'm going back and forth between Lee and Hardy tbh. Hope it's the former.

I hope it some one else entirely and we get shocked.

 

[Sycho Sid]

So long as it is not just Jeff

I think it's Jeff, but not the Jeff you're thinking of.

Spoiler

Apparently someone else's non-compete expired yesterday who is now in the mix

I think it is going to be Keith Lee. I hope I'm wrong, though.

Another guy who does a bunch of spots but has no real character... he's kind of the last thing AEW needs at this point.

At least, if they have to sign Lee, they should get rid of two people half his size with the same move set.

All these surprise debuts to get people excited instead of writing compelling stories with your already bloated roster reeks of TNA

 

[The Clinch]

"One wrestler who it definitely will not be is Jeff Hardy. Hardy still has a non-compete until March, which will be ninety days after his WWE release. WWE previously attempted to get Hardy to return but he turned them down."

Although yeah, they need to focus on what they have instead of getting more shit to do fuck all with.

Also, Tony Khan's dumbass has no idea what "Forbidden Door" means.

The bloated roster is naturally taking care of itself over the next few months due to expiring contracts.

A pro wrestling company would be dumb as fuck not to sign a lot of these guys who are becoming available.

They also have numerous stories playing out currently within their massive roster, so I don't really understand that knock on their product I'm seeing recently around the internet. Most of their roster is engaged in some type of storyline or feud.

Who dis?

The storylines aren't compelling. They are generally "X attacks Y post match" or "X interrupts Y's interview". They knock the big shows out of the park but the week to week booking is a bore

He created the phrase so I guess he can also modify its definition.

I guess we're far apart on what makes something compelling. What I want from a wrestling company is people setting up fights with each other and then fighting, AEW is knocking it out of the ball park when it comes to wrestlers building up to a fight and if that fight wasn't enough they fight again. Old acronym "KISS, Keep It Simple Stupid" works for me, I ain't trying to see some drawn out soap opera shit, I could give a fuck if Lita had a miscarriage to set up a fight between Kane and Snitsky lol

Tanahashi created the phrase when he said he wanted to fight people from AEW.

and yet he's done nothing. All talk that old Ace is.

He became the champion of America by beating AEW's Lance Archer!
