Lio Rush couldn't even get Swole an apology before folding and taking the soup.

didn't Tony Khan already use Lio Rush as a pawn not too long ago on some diversity shyt ?? when people were talking about how many black people held belts in WWE at the time and he went on twitter like "I just spoke to Lio Rush on the phone"

all the others jumping to defend him just in case they get even less screen time than they already get.

their signings indicate there will be no black champions for years at least on he male side but Jade def getting that goofy ass second womens belt now.
its clear AEW don't care about having a black fanbase and the majority of their 35-40 year old cult like fanbase don't have an interest in black wrestlers like that. they want the indie darlings they loved years ago all in the same company doing corny shyt with the Young Bucks and having the same matches just a bit more washed this time around.

nobody called that little fakkit racist but thats what he and the AEW fanbase took it as and thats what people should know what they're dealing with.

I'm not familiar with Swole's work but I found Tony Khan shytting on her ability funny because 90% of the women on that roster wouldn't get near WWE television unless they were getting squashed and their champion and star of their women's division is bad. theres no PC for them to get better either.

shout out your man Darius Lockhart (he'd be a star in NXT 2.0)
Hell yea shoutout Darius. Had a bad feeling he wouldnt be on AEW after his Dark match with QT. Reports came out that during the match Darius/QT messed up a spot, QT blamed Darius and slapped him for real and that slap concussed Darius. I bet nothing happened to QT and the Dark match never hit youtube iirc. With Lockhart speaking out against Tony, him in AEW wont happen at all now unfortunately.

My bad on saying "reports" like it was something official. I couldnt remember where I got it from. So that's on me for making it sound "official".

On resetera there is a OT for AEW. One of the posters attended Dynamite which also had the Dark tapings and made this post after looking at elevation. All Elite Wrestling |OT7| Home Of Professional Wrestling post #9834 in that thread

Just to add legitimacy that the match did happen(just never aired) and some funky shyt did go down for the end.

* QT Marshall defeated Darius Lockhart. Technical match with big “QT sucks!” chants. Looks like a leg injury ends the match early via doctor stoppage. Lockhart gets helped to the back

This me asking about it a couple weeks later in the thread.

Swole wasn't a great worker, but she was damn sure more capable than most of the women you see Wed & Fri night. Tony reacted off a headline instead of listening to the interview, and he let his true feelings out. Tony is damn near 40 and people are saying he needs to be educated on race, no he's a 39yr old whiny bytch who is not interested in black representation. If you notice AEW has been trying to court the Latino demographic.

the Tony comment of "We dont know who's gonna draw or get over" shyt................They force fed Hangman to ppl. They MADE him a draw.

Also that "You must have 26% of the show devoted to this is ridiculous" comment from Dave:mjpls:
And after a year of "letting it play out" Hamgman can't draw flies to shyt.

None of these people draw. So it's all bullshyt. Ricky Stark's is ready made and can't even get five minutes a week on the mic. Like those cac fakkits have any real talker. fukk mjf and his sitcom delivery.

Plus they gave Starks an unofficial title, the FTW title. Which AEW does nothing with it.

They can't even book him in a TNT title feud, or have him and Hobbs go for AEW tag titles.
