Outside of work rate & having better heads of hair, there was nothing Reigns or Rollins had on Jon. :yeshrug: I'm not surprised at all that Jon is currently the most discussed talent since debuting at DON. Dude just gets it. Don't really care about athleticism or how many crisp falcon arrows he can execute in succession. I wish he'd tighten up his strikes & dial back some of the jerky mannerisms, but his charisma & promo ability are his calling cards & make him infinitely more entertaining than if he was a technical savant. As someone who always favored him in WWE & cares more about characters (something the WWE needs more of desperately) I wish him nothing but the best and he's part of the reason I'll be following AEW on TNT. :yeshrug: Vince is a moron & didn't want him at the tip top because he was balding & didn't like to tweet, but it'll be nice to see him cut loose in AEW. Its put up or shut up time & I'm excited.

Nah I’m gonna blame Austin for the dean stuff that podcast really seemed to hurt him . Before that he was the champ and workhorse while reigns was suspended and Seth I think was hurt.
Also Austin who is boys with Brock didn’t want to admit that Brock was being lazy

Moxley/Ambrose was always the best and most consistent member of The Shield. he's the best talker/promo of the trio, solid in the ring, and was always organically over with the fans.

let's just be real, Roman is forced by the McMahon machine and they even use his tragic, real life leukemia to guilt the fans into cheering for him.

and Rollins? quite frankly the first 10 seconds of his entrance music "Burn It Down" is more over than he is.

:why: Rome's battles with AJ is better than anything has ever done. He was horrible in the ring.

Hes going up against juice for the us title?






Moxley Vs. Juice Robinson official for the Best of the Super Juniors final card on June 5th. According to their website, it will indeed be for the IWGP United States Championship.

In the above video, Juice accepts Moxley's challenge, while also talking about the brief history they have. Juice brings up the fact that they both started on the same day in Florida Championship Wrestling while with WWE. He looked up to Moxley and the latter even has a win over Juice while with WWE. Juice promised to flip the script; he plans to beat Moxley and retain his United States Championship.

I assume if he's in Japan for the 5th, that he'll be working Dominion also. I wonder who he faces there. I assumed they would just do the Juice match then.

Also Meltzer says Moxley's schedule is free for the G1 :jbhmm:
