Never cared for Tommy End or Buddy. No big losses. :russell:

Surprisingly, I did enjoy a few Malakai solo matches in AEW.
I feel like Malakai should have been in the upper mid card territory. I don't know if it was because of his fukked up back that prevented him from ever getting a consistent push, shytty booking, or a combination of both, but his time in AEW fell pretty flat.

I also think Cody fccked up alot of these guys momentum, The Factory, Arn Anderson, Andrade, Black, Matthews.

At least Malakai can be interesting. Buddy Matthews is just another wrestler who will likely be living on Main Event with nothing creatively in place for him. If not for Rhea he probably ends up in Impact, on the Indies, or back home in Australia.
I could see Buddy in Impact. He’d fit in, and at this point they’ d probably showcase him better, especially as a solo act

Yeah, but his girl is in WWE plus Triple H love him. Fish wasn't gonna work unless he brought KOR and Cole with him

Andrade been misused twice. Can’t believe both companies dropped the ball with him. I think he’ll shine when he returns to the E. Hopefully Trips gives him a run with the main belt.

When it comes to the old WWE guys, if I was Tony I'd offer them all releases.

Can't work for WWE until Jan 1st but work all the indie dates you want in the meantime. I thought both Andrade and Malaki could have been in the top guy mix in AEW but didn't happen. So neither is a big loss, give that TV time to the young guys on the roster who are chomping at the bit for more shine.

I suspect Samoa Joe would be looking to go back. Maybe Miro? Maybe Ruby? But same goes, offer em a release and see ya later.

Swerve sure doesn't sound like a guy who misses WWE
