[03/10] AEW Dynamite: KABOOM? More like bzzzzzzt

[Jello Biafra]

@Jello Biafra

Wardlow described his tryout with WWE: “I know people know that I did have a tryout and I smoked that tryout. I was literally the only dude there in a suit. It was mind blowing. Dudes were there in shorts and T-Shirts. That’s because they are not recruiting wrestlers. They are recruiting ex-NFL athletes or college wrestlers, people that have never watched wrestling and don’t care about wrestling. The comments these people were making made me sick to my stomach that they were there getting an opportunity. Of course, my roommate said, ‘man I’ve never even watched wrestling. I don’t even like it’ and I was like, ‘get out of my room. Why are you here?’ It was his second tryout. These people are getting multiple tryouts. So I smoked that tryout. I thought I had this in the bag, so much so that I sold my motorcycle. I sold my house. I literally got rid of everything because I was like, I’m going to put everything into moving to Florida. When the email came in that I was not, I actually had to pull over on the side of the road. I couldn’t believe it. Then I started training personally with Kurt Angle when he was getting ready to make his comeback for his final couple of matches. Me and Kurt clicked in the ring really well. Him and I talked a lot and he expressed that he had a conversation with a certain somebody there about bringing me in. He told me it’s not a matter of it, it’s a matter of when. When the opportunity came with AEW and I heard what the plans were and I heard the vision and the passion behind it, I knew there was nothing for me to wait for. This is what it is and I’m very happy I didn’t say no and wait and wait and wait. God knows I could still be waiting at this point. I am most definitely where I am supposed to be.”

That is nuts. How are you putting so much time and money into people who don't even like wrestling?
While also passing on a guy who loves the business and is full of nothing but potential like Wardlow? HHH is smoking bath salts.
And I didn't know he trained with Angle. That is an awesome dude to learn from.

Forgot all about MJF and Spears being betting buddies when the Rona shows first started.
Longterm booking, man.

It's the "no disrespect whatsoever" that always gets me no matter how many times I see that clip.

Why do y’all hate spears so much? What did he do to get the TSC heel turn?

When he was in WWE , it was he is under utilized, y’all said his perfect 10 bullshyt was over. Y’all wanted him to be number 10 in every rumble. And he was right for leaving for AEW

A Year later now he is being shytted on for showing up to a group beat down.

I’m saying if y’all are saying he isn’t that good then y’all have to admit that he was never that good and he didn’t work in WWE because he wasn’t that good. Idk it just seems like anyone that don’t work with WWE is vinces fault but if they go somewhere else and fail it’s all on them.

I never liked him. Not in NXT, not on the main roster and not in AEW.
I thought he was a wasted signing by AEW.

He's always been trash.

A few years ago WWE put together a collage of women that had a great year and all of them were white. Nia responded with

And then he hit the "We ALL matter" button

At the very least it was real tone-deaf to what Nia was saying.

I mean isn’t the narrative surrounding AEW that they give free reign to the talent and allow them to get themselves over and aren’t held down?

if that’s the case, if Spears were truly good, he would’ve showed up and impressed- yet he’s looked horrible in everything he’s done- so if it isn’t his fault, it’s AEW’s?

I just think everyone realized he was trash in WWE because he sucks and is trash in AEW because he sucks

I’d like to go on record and say I never liked that 10 gimmick whatsoever so I been a Shawn Spears hater.

 

[Rayzah]

Yea..... aside from not feeling him maybe do to some of his personal/political views (though if w me all want to play that game then we should all keep that energy for a BUNCH of other guys all over)

I agree, I don’t get the hate as dude to me don’t do enough to generate that much anger or disgust.

At max all I feel for him is


So him in that group doesn’t phase me one way another

This is my point.

He’s irrelevant so how can you hate him? Save that energy for once he starts to be on tv.

He is and always has been a mediocre talent. That perfect 10 shyt was weak and never had a chance of getting over.

But if it’s some political shyt then I care even less because like you said being rich and white and a wrestler is almost a guarantee you have some stupid views

 

[Tres Leches]

What if they bring in zelina as penta manager ?

 

[Ribbs]

I had no audio issues on the repeat, they must've cleaned it up in post.

"It's 1998 forever in my head b" Underdog, put it on a t-shirt!

The women's division

Inner Circle remains At least Jericho got beat down

He wasn't, and that's exactly why he was fired. He was never that good. Not in OVW, not in NXT, not here. He got the benefit of NXT Crowds loving damn near everything in front of them + competent booking that made him look a bit better than what he was. Seeing him on the Main Roster exposed that, and having AEW try and reheat his cold, lifeless corpse into something beyond "solid hand in the midcard" for the 3rd or 4th time is reinforcing that.

I honestly thought the SEVERE Spears hate was a meme. but y'all really want him gone gone.

edit: probably already said but how Rey Fenix pyro look more intense than the ring explosion at Revolution
