The "let's not take this shyt so seriously" AEW news & fukkery thread

[mannyrs13]

Knew Kenny Omega and the Bucks by name only. Watched njpw's G1 for the first time cause I heard AJ was there. Im not even sure if I was watching wrestling like that at the time. If I was, it was Lucha Underground.

It was very , legit some of the best wrestling I had ever seen. I gave up on New Japan when Cody and Omega were having their lil Civil War.


They started AEW, there were wrestlers from both NJPW and LU, it was a no brainer to me. IT was the talent plus this air of "wrestlers unhappy in WWE, lets see who jump ship"

I gotta run back LU. Now when football season ends I'll have to see if i run an episode a week or two of them.

seems like they got shyt all over the world. not sure how updated it is. freaking russia got something in moscow, shyt over in iraq, middle east, all over. i even see Chile got a bunch of feds listed @Jmare007

i even see some shyt in canada, some deep north type shyt over by alaska. thats gotta be cold as hell.

We've had wrestling for decades breh. It's Indy, shytty wrestling for the most part. There's been some interesting periods and good talent that have had interesting success but that's not the norm. Still, there's always 1-3 promotions running shows, mainly in the capital.

Did it ever come out what happened to Stokely? They rushed a turn for Statlander and then he just vanished

Not every talent is gonna be like Penta. He has the look and can work. The fact he debuted in Cali was a good look too.

Wrestlers are just as delusional as fans. They see one person’s success and think they can be on the same spot too. And not just that, but they don’t factor in long term.

Not saying Penta’s future is dim because it’s not right to judge it right now, but Jade is a perfect example of having a hot debut only to just float around as a buddy. And Jade is one of a kind too.

Im gonna push back on the Jade part a little. I love Jade and her look. I think she is a star overall. But, I think she is still a buddy cause she hasnt improved enough to be on her own yet. She is still the hot tag in tag matches, while Bianca catches the beatdown. Hell, I dont think she can even be trusted to sell a beatdown, OR she has stuff in her contract to avoid that. I say that simply because the 2 times she was supposedly taken out backstage, we didnt see it on camera. By the time the 'audience' got there, she was already 'laid out'. She just isnt ready, and I do think they hoped to have Jade/Bianca at Mania, but she isnt there to carry a big match on her own yet.

May was entertaining on commentary last night. She's good in my book.

And TK needs to be beat up for letting Hayter come out like she does. She had the perfect look now she looks like

Dudes been saying this same ol shyt forever. I’ve seen a few of her matches in the E and she looked better in AEW. Tell me how that’s possible signed under the big dogs known as the WWE?

I may not always see eye to eye with this guy. I'm sure I've argued with him or often ignore his foolishness but i saw this post and some of the ideas look good.



I like the one about eliminating the two tunnels. I think just one with the elevator for big matches can be better. Also like the banner idea like njpw has. That way a casual channel surfer may turn on the match and know who is wrestling and for what title.

A guy posting about a company on how they “can improve” but doesn’t like the company. This is mental illness at its finest.

Rush watched Monday with envy in his heart that’s all

Lost 10-15 lbs of muscle and she went full ultimate warrior

def was shocking to see from him but often a critic can give a different perspective that we may not see from.
