Scorpio Sky is big mad

[Allen Poe]

Jade Cargill's a much better promo and TV presence than him and she just started wrestling a few months ago, that's kind of damning in my eyes.

She's improved since that first promo she cut against Cody, but no.

Instead of that angry black man shyt, He would've been more believable like this:

I mean - you're not wrong....

I've been on Sky ever since he threw on the for Tessa Blanchard the night she won the Impact title and less than 24 hours after she was exposed as a racist piece of shyt.

Not about to sit here and wish failure on Black folk though - hope this gets him where he wants to be,

 

[Vic Damone. Jr]

Aint he cape for Tessa's racist ass on some "She's always been nice to me" shyt?

Yep

This post was overbooked like WWE booking

Ok, ok, maybe I exaggerated a little.

This is interesting and brings me to something Booker said recently about Lashley and potentially him going back to the background.

“No one can be up, over, and on top all the time”

Sky was one of the champs comings coming out the gate and one of the FIRST champs in the company. Also back then a lot of the guys in the forefront now was more or less in the background then.

So how do you bring up new stars when you keep the same guys in the main spotlight?

Also how do you keep someone constantly over without burning them out to the masses and making them feel old, dull, and dated?

Booker's quote is only partially accurate. Once they hit their peaks Sammartino, Hogan, Backlund, Bockwinkle, Austin, The Rock, Cena, and some others never played the background, even when they became part-timers.
Sammartino, Hogan, and Backlund had world champion runs that lasted over a year (a decade in Bruno's case), and they were consistently over. In fact, Hogan would probably still be popular today if we never learned what a racist p.o.s. he is.
The guys that I mentioned were big deals because they were booked like big deals. You mentioned Sky being an inaugural champ, but look at his booking since then. He's been wasting away on YouTube, and he got pinned clean by a 62 year old man. He's a victim of bad booking, and as such very few people care about him.
Saying that Scorpio is a former tag champ is like saying Pedro Morales is a former champion. It's true, but he was a jobber for the bulk of his US career. Wrestling fans have a short memory; nobody cares what Scorpio WAS, we want to know what he's all about NOW.
Had they let Scorpio go on a televised run after leaving S.C.U., and maybe given him a TNT run (he got one TNT title match & went straighr back to Youtube), and NOT let him get sonned by a senior citizen, things might be different. However, as of now, he doesn't seem like a big deal.

Yep

You can tell he went right back to smiling and eating cheesecake with all his white friends in catering right after.

That’s fair…..

I will admit this.

With everyone being so WWE programmed in their thinking.

Only people on the coli and I guess social look down on Dark like it’s 205 or Main Event.

Tony and others from jump always viewed it as 2nd show and held it in higher regards. They NEVER said it was a lower sub show.

Everyone in the company no matter who they are has had MATCHES on dark.

I know they just got Rampage now….. but their intent wasn’t and isn’t to have it viewed as a sub level lower show to bury people.

With that said…. Scorpio still like the 4th or 5th highest winning guy match wise in the company and that lost to a so called 62 year old man (lol at the STING disrespect like we talking like he’s Boogeyman….. it’s Sting) was like his second time getting pinned in 2021.

I know cats may not like how it’s been executed, but overall he’s been booked as a winner

 

[Bryan Danielson]

Tony do gotta work on changing folks mind on how they view Dark. Cuz they saying one thing, but some people are viewing it as something else cause….. “well just because” or “cause that’s how it is in another company” (but this ain’t that company).

I think they tried a little with the Dark Elevation. But now that Rampage is up and running.

They gotta do a much better job going forward

This and the other post are my AEW criticisms

He’s 38 and can’t talk. Good wrestler though
